LesDogg Has Helpful Tips On Stopping the Annoying Relatives From Ruining Thanksgiving

I mentioned last week that I might need to correct a date - LAST week was National Bacon Day and TODAY is International Bacon Day

I have done the MVP's recipe that was showcased on National Bacon Day and it always tastes better - to our extended family's palate - with the addition of some of the goods sold by these vendors 

Even as I could take some issue with the precision of the phrase, I do appreciate both the intention and the intentionality behind the logo/caption - and here is a direct statement from the company's CEO

Customer B.B. writes: “Penzeys makes everything better.” We noticed that ourselves pretty early on, and at first didn’t quite know what to make of it. But for some time now, without coming right out and saying it, we’ve been running our business as best we can to encourage the kindness and compassion that’s needed to take on the world’s problems and the resolve needed to overcome the obstacles in the way to solving them.

Now, for a host of reasons, I think the time has come to admit what we are actually up to and come right out and say it. So here goes. We are trying to make the world a better place. And with your help there are days where we actually seem to be doing that. Our goal now is to have more of those days.

Part of all this works because as a Spice business we are a reminder that sometimes the community we are a part of is not just our own backyard. Sometimes our community really is the entire planet and everyone on it. Our Spices come from all across this planet, our Seasonings are inspired by all regions. We’ve traveled the world for you and can tell you its kindness and decency know no borders.

And I want to post a link to the catalogue because they always have great specials  - $32 order/free shipping has passed, but several of the "grill & broil" packages are on offer this week along with Cheese Sprinkle (even though there is a limit of 3, lolsob)

Here is the "Most Popular" Page

They always include recipes also, but I agree with the Bob Balaban-created therapist's exhortation in No Reservations that "the best recipes are always the ones we make ourselves" - so please include the instructions for anything you're making as we change seasons that you believe the rest of us should know about in comments   😊

We've also got a "momentary lapse of reason" and "S.O.S. 31 times" in music history today
