As mentioned in my last post, I spent a couple of days in Denver last week and had a blast. One of the activities that Allison and I enjoyed together was a visit to a little store called Savory Spice Shop. I will not deny that when Allison first suggested it, my thought was...Really? Spices? Nothing else? But, I am a player and it was sort of on the way to the airport, so we decided to give it a go.
Let me tell you that if I had more time and was willing to spend even more money than I already did, I would have stayed overnight at the place! Allison made us a new best friend in Rose (pictured with us here) as they compared Italian recipes and cooking methods while Rose introduced us to every kind of sweet and savory spice known to mankind.
After tasting at least 10 different spice blends, salts, rubs, cinnamon, vanilla and ginger, I had to cut myself off due to flavor overload! I opted to ship everything rather than risk having something taken away by the compliance cops of TSA, so I am anticipating quite the bevy of seasonings to cook with this weekend when I return home.
Looks like it is BBQ time with the new fancy grill!

Mmmm! Sounds yummy! And I have to admit that my stalking has taken on new heights also - we will definitely have to get together. I just might have to invite myself up for a sampling of the spices and to see the fancy new grill!
