I had trouble getting the some of the ingredients for this recepie
What is Wonder bread?
Can I substitute a Wonder bra instead?
How about Peanut Butter instead of Apple Butter?
How about if I neck the whisk(e)y rather then set fire to it?
Pat…No worries. You live in chicago? And your house#? And when will you be gone? You say in the pantry? I just want to take a look at the old bottle, really.
If you order a set of pipes now from Lark in the Morning or the practice set from the other thread, you’ll get a free kerchief for wiping your tears plus a bag of barley and a
recipe for whiskey for when you give up pipng and turn it into a still.
Marc
merry cristmas lol.
