Comfort Item

Sometimes, survival comes down to the psychological edge a comfort item, like a family photo, can give you. Or this family of elves, Mrs. Hanzo made.



My comfort items would be a machete or knife and a big blanket.

 

Those are cool!

 

A good book and a comfortable place to read

 

A good battle ax and a pot of Oolong Tea would suit me pretty well.

 

For those of us with an unfortunate addiction to tobacco: keeping a good stock of your tobacco product of choice is a good idea as a possible "comfort" item. I personally have a stock to last me about a month that I constantly rotate to keep from going bad.

 

throwing knives, or playing harmonica depending upon my mood.

 

Sharps. Lotsa sharps.

 

Chocolove dark chocolate with crystallized ginger

 

Awrighty then. Must be spring fer sure now. Dw wearing open toes. Been a long winter and I'm glad it's near over

 

I keep mine in the freezer. One can every 5-7 days and I keep between 3-5 rolls @ 5 cans per roll. One of the few things my wife does nag me about.

 

Any of you smokers grow tobacco?

 

No, but I'm giving it some serious thought.

 

I don't have any experience with it, but I am aware of the process. Seems to be pretty cheap to get started on, from what I can tell.

 

A couple tins of good tobacco for my pipe and a bottle of really good bourbon.

Way too cold to grow tobacco here but If I move south I'll hafta try it.

 

I've got the Apple Pie and straight whiskey down pretty well-IMHO especially after spending a few years in an oak barrel.What I'd like to perfect is spiced rum. I shamelessly enjoy a bottle of Capt. Morgan or Sailor Jerry and would love to be able to replicate either or something close.

 

How is your Mead?

 

Haven't tried to make it. Maybe when I get the bee hives up and going

 

Let me know if you do. I might want a bottle or two....

 

No Problem!

 

I know one guy with a five year waiting list....for one bottle.
