The Exchange

Relatives sent a jar of jam mixed with peanut butter...having never encountered the heathenistic American substance I was mildly surprised.
In reprisal I mix peanut butter with honey into a fine blend. I also mix apple cider with caramel creaming soda to create candy apple soft drink.

What do you enjoy blending?


I enjoy helping make apple cider when I can. Increasingly not capable of it, but the homemade stuff is just so good!

Pumpkin wine is fun to make and sell to people who don't believe it exists.


Honey + peanut butter is pretty darned good, I do have to admit.

Only other thing I blend on anything close to a regular basis is (insert non-carbonated, usually fruit-flavored drink available at restaurant soda fountain here) + Sprite/Sierra Mist/7-Up.

Never liked peanut butter, dunno why. I gorge myself on regular peanuts.


I'm with you, Hama. I've been weaned onto solid foods for decades now. If I want fruit, I'll eat that, not some sweetened baby food paste ("jelly") made from fruit. If I want peanuts, I'll eat them, not their mashed remains. If I want eggs, I'll eat eggs -- and not put a nauseating fatty egg glop ("mayo") on my sandwich.

Beer and wine are A-OK with me, though!

In a few months time... Sci-fi and fantasy.

I enjoy blending rye whiskey with Pechaud bitters and a bit of simple syrup, then serving in a cold glass rinsed with absinthe and garnished with lemon peel.

A Sazerac! Very nice!

I enjoy combining two parts reposado tequila, one part Cointreau, and one part fresh-sqeezed lime juice. Shake with ice and strain into a cocktail glass. (Alas, I'm on a low-sodium diet and must skip the kosher salt on the rim.)

For breakfast, I enjoy blending up plain yogurt, frozen berries, a banana, and some almond milk. Best smoothie ever!


Peanut butter + honey + mustard.

Then you spread it on bread along with creamy cheese, smoked ham, and rucola.

Makes for a pretty fantastic sandwich. If no rucola is available, lettuce with a hint of pepper achieves a similar effect.

I also like making grenadine and lemon slushies on the blender.


Apple Cider and Dandy Blend (which is an instant form of dandelion and chicory root "coffee")
The sweet and bitter flavours match nicely. It only works when I can get fresh cider from the orchards down the street though.

I like to call it Dandy Cider, but then I feel like I should wear a monocle to drink it. :P

I don't like peanut butter too much, except in that darn ice cream or as a fun ingredient to certain gravys (especially braised beef), where I find it to be surprisingly delicious.


The movie "Undercover Brother" beautifully expresses my feelings about hot sauce vs. mayo.

Keep calm and eat Heinz Salad Cream.


Oreos and whiskey...Mmmmm.


I once expressed admiration for my frind Jack's bar, and the completeness of its contents. "You never know what people will drink, so a good host keeps everything on hand," he explained. Being naturally curious (not to mention an alcohol snob), I asked for examples.

He said, "Last week, [name redacted] and his wife came over, and they asked for scotch and coke!"
I made a face.
He added, "Yeah, I swear to God, I almost puked!"
