Spice Islands Cajun Seasoning: Disappointing Shortcut or Flavorful Base?
I discovered Cajun and Creole cooking late in life. The spice and flavor of the food was very appealing and sparked a desire to know how to prepare various dishes, something I thoroughly enjoyed. I usually make my own spice blend combining bay leaf, salt, cayenne, oregano, white pepper, black pepper, and thyme leaves. I…

@google Pixel 8 Pro, part deux

Every time I tried to use the Night Sight feature the camera app would freeze, the phone would crash, and then reboot. Not exactly what I had come to expect from Pixel devices. I reached out to Google customer service…

@JustSpices – Vegetable Allrounder
Yeah, yeah. I know. It’s been a while since my last review. I have no excuses besides self doubt and old tapes playing around inside my head. My apologies. Over the last few months I have been playing around with the @JustSpices Seasoning Blends and experimenting with them on various foods. Because of my diet…

@CholulaHotSauce Sweet Habañero
This was the final member of the trinity of hot sauces I purchased recently and, SPOILER ALERT, it did not disappoint. The bright orange portion of the label let me know that I did not have this sauce in my collection. My mind immediately thought, can you ever have too many hot sauces. Before I…

Seasoning Blends from @JustSpices
Bear with me. My work with Final Cut Pro has made me rethink how I am handling the reviews for the @JustSpices Seasoning Blends. I realized that I needed a better way to review them. Something more structured that would cover all the points that are important to me, and hopefully you the reader. The…
