    Thanks for the update Ty, that's really cool you're letting everyone know bc it takes the hear off your sender. You'll have that package & another one as well :wink:

    Definitely not the first time an iPhone has screwed up my name. When I got mine, it simply didn't want to believe that was my name. Siri and I got into an argument about it.

    Haha-so she sounds all nice, but she's high-maintenance? Just have her call you rock star or whatever that commercial suggests. I think it was invented just so people who have no friends have someone to talk with.

    Btw- that does not mean people who have Siri automatically are friendless. This sounds like an SAT equation now. I meant the first founder said "I have no one to talk to on the phone, so I'll just talk to my phone". I'm jealous of Siri owners though, it takes effort typing in these questions.

    I am so glad it all made it safely! I had no idea you were a beekeeper. That is pretty cool. Let me know what you think of the Honey. I have used it in several of my homebrews.

    As for the beers I was trying to give you a wide range of things from the region that you may not have had before or access to.

    Cheers

    Funny ... I got a few of those beers ... well, two of them. The Capt Lawrence is a good beer, malty but a good hop kick. I haven't had the Joe Mama's Coffee yet, been meaning to chill it down. I also got a jar of that salsa, but again I haven't tried it.

    Nice looking haul!

    EDIT:
    And now there are two.

    Mista will be receiving a small box with the local food item tomorrow. Its an item that was featured on 'The Best Thing I Ever Ate" not sure if its the exact flavor they featured. Sory, I didnt ship any more beer with the item. I wanted to send a beer or two to help wash said food item down, but things are fucked up for me at this time.

    And that will effectively end this BIF, correct?

    Just opened my salsa ... it's the mild. While it is tasty, it needs MORE HEAT! I bet their hot is really good!
