Spice Tester Mugs

"Gesundheit."

Squirrels Stockpiling Mulling Spices for Winter

"Maybe if we added some pumpkin spice?"

'So tell me why you think you're suffering from seasonal ineffective disorder.'

"Vindaloo hot enough?"

It turns out they don't go together so well,

"I hope you won't repent afterwards, Vicar, It's a devilishly hot vindaloo!"

Harsh Mellows.

"Fresh pepper?"

Why did Ernie take that off his wrist and put it here when he had to leave the kitchen? For safety reasons. A watched pot never boils. Ernie says you are what you eat. It's true in his case. Ernie is just like his food. He is sweet, and has some but not too much spice. Plus there's nothing artificial about him. Also like his food, Ernie is an acquired taste. And to me they have both become irresistibly delicious!

"Is Pinot Noir where you want to be?"

Salt and Pepper

"Now, in contrast to the last olive oil you tasted, this one is infused with sixty-five more dollars."

It's beginning to smell a lot like Christmas

"Just a pinch, Helga ... spicy eye of newt doesn't agree with me."

'Would you care for some fresh pepper? Well too bad, because all we have is these dried up old peppercorns.'

Witch's Brew.

“Our numbers grow greater and greater. Soon the era of the spices will be at hand”

Wine Tasting and Wine Guzzling

"Your meal sounded nice."

And then in Italy. . . "But I really don't like bubblegum gelato."

"I detect a subtle bouquet of money."

Old Spice

"For the first half hour, I was, like, really there. Enchanted. But I found the wild-quail confit so disappointing that not even the fig reduction on the poached pear could get me back."

"You're really not too extreme, huh?"

Avocado Timeline

'Chili again?'

"Habanero ..."

Real coffee vs usual vending machine stuff

"I told you to order the mild salsa!"

"Well, there's your problem right there -- you need to sauté the onions in white wine before adding the ginger."

M.D. You burned a hole in your stomach --- eat only bland foods from now on! No more spicy food?! It's a season-ending injury!

"Sriracha"

"Your Majesty, my voyage will not only forge a new route to the spices of the East but also create over three thousand new jobs."

'I'd recommend the white wine.'
