Dangerous food!!


Recommended Posts

I have to warn you about a food danger that my daughter recently encountered. She came home from work and found that she could not exist without a s'more. She had chocolate and graham crackers but no marshmallows. But she (light bulb above head) had Easter Peeps, which are made of marshmallow. She needed a flame to toast it but she has an electric range, so(bigger light bulb above head) she would use the propane torch.Keep in mind that this young woman is intelligent has a medical degree. She lit it with the flame toward her and put the Peep to the flame. Peeps are covered with fine sugar and it flared up, burning off the middle of her right eyebrow. So, for work the next day, she colored in an eyebrow with a pen, not unlike Groucho Marx's moustache. Everyone was looking at her strangely and she made the mistake of telling them the truth rather than telling them she got it by rescuing a puppy from a raging fire. Now, she has no option but to change her name and move out of state and get a job at a fast food resturant. Peeps should have a warning on the label, don't you think??

Sorry, icehousebob, but that gave me a good chuckle. \:D

Seriously, thanks for the warning.Main point might be if you are going to torch the peeps, keep them away from your peeps.

    • Sorry to hear that Duff. Will give my GSP's an extra scratch behind the ear for you guys today
    • Aw, man, sorry to hear that.  Shed some tears and remember her well.  They all take a piece of our hearts with them; some more than others.
    • yes sorry for your loss..  our dogs are always special...
    • Truly sorry to hear that duffman! I know that feeling.  Keep the good memories  
    • Chamois passed away this weekend a couple days short of her 13th bday. What a great dog to hang out with here at home and on distant adventures. Gonna miss ya big time my little big girl.
    • Sounds pretty sweet, alright. I will check them out, thanks.
    • If you really want to treat your wife (and yourself) with a remote operated trolling motor, the Minn Kota Ulterra is about easy as it gets.  Auto stow and deploy is pretty awesome.  You just have to turn the motor on when you go out and that the last time you have to touch it.   24V 80lb.  60 inch shaft is probably the right length for your boat.  They ain’t cheap - about $3k - but neither one of you would have to leave your seat to use it all day.
    • Wanderer, thanks for your reply. I do intend for it to be 24 volt, with a thrust of 70-80. Spot lock is a must (my wife is looking forward to not being the anchor person any more).  With my old boat we did quite a lot of pulling shad raps and hot n tots, using the trolling motor. Unlikely that we will fish in whitecaps, did plenty of that when I was younger. I also need a wireless remote, not going back to a foot pedal. We do a fair amount of bobber fishing. I don't think I will bother with a depth finder on the trolling motor. I am leaning toward moving my Garmin depth finder from my old boat to the new one, just because I am so used to it and it works well for me. I am 70 years old and kinda set in my ways...
    • Dang, new content and now answers.   First, congrats on the new boat!   My recommendation is to get the most thrust you can in 24V, assuming a boat that size isn’t running 36V.  80 might be tops?  I’m partial to MinnKota.     How do you plan to use the trolling motor is an important question too.     All weather or just nice weather?   Casting a lot or bait dragging?   Bobber or panfish fishing?   Spot lock?  Networked with depth finders?  What brand of depth finders?
