But I will be bummed if something happened to it. I've wanted to send you that package for 6 months now. Onto other news. I found these kewl 1 pint sized Food Saver bags. I have 8 x 1 cup portions, 4 x 1/2 cup portions, my grinder full and some extra to make pepper salt. Felt like a drug dealer, measuring out and bagging up Purple Crack Berries - LOL 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tony b Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 I did likewise. I was using these FoodSaver bags. Put up mostly 4oz (Dime) bags, but a few 2 oz (Nickel) bags, too. Filled the grinder, then used what was left to make the Purple Crack pepper salt. I like these bags for putting up spices, rubs, etc. because it's a roll and you can make them as big (or small) as you need. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand I usually use the rolls and have a lifetime supply stashed in my closet. (got the 11" pleated rolls for around $2 per roll. I bought a few boxes - LOL) Was being lazy so I bought the pint baggies. Perfect size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tony b Posted April 30, 2017 Report Share Posted April 30, 2017 I have the canisters (came with the original pump as a giant box set of "everything"), but opted to use the bags instead. I don't think that I've ever used the canisters?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussie Ora Posted May 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2017 I think it's time to start claiming your insurance ckreef lol. https://tools.usps.com/go/TrackConfirmAction?tLabels=CH016073558US.

tony b Posted May 2, 2017 Report Share Posted May 2, 2017 (edited) Yeah, Charles. My package to Aussie only took 8 calendar days from the day I dropped it off at the Post Office here in Iowa until it was delivered to him. Only 2 days from Chicago to Perth, via Tokyo. Then another 3 days to be delivered locally. Edited May 2, 2017 by tony b Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony b Posted May 2, 2017 Report Share Posted May 2, 2017 OK, I might have finally OD'ed on Purple Crack tonight! The Purple Crack mashed potatoes were fine. Sous vide russets in duck fat with Purple Crack and powdered roasted garlic, then mashed with sour cream and half-n-half, with white truffle oil and black garlic. But, that wasn't what sent me into overdose - it was the Purple Crack vinaigrette salad dressing! Standard vinaigrette of EVOO and White Balsamic vinegar with the lemon myrtle/Taz peppercorn blend, Purple Crack, and an extra grind of straight Taz peppercorns from the grinder on top of the tomato wedges. I think it was the last hit that did it. My tongue is still tingling 20 minutes later! If you don't hear from me over the next couple of days, it's because I've checked myself into rehab! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-P600 using Tapatalk Expand If this really ended up in the Bermuda Triangle I will eventually resend it. The rubs and extras I threw in there I couldn't care less about but the ingredients to make 2 special salad dressings I really wanted you and Dee to try. Those were the hardest most expensive part of the box but that was really what the box was about. We'll see what happens and I'll eventually reorder the ingredients from FL. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
