If I make my family style chili mild, I usually bring an assortment of powdered peppers and hot sauce so those that want heat can add to theirs. Once in HI I brought (among others) some powdered habenero. I'd labeled the top as HAB; one guy misread it as just HOT and sprinkled some on his bowl full of chili. After he cooled his mouth off, he asked me about it so I told him it was powdered habenero. He said he'd be sure to read the labelling better next time. --- Catch you later, Ruth rchaffly{at}earthlink{dot}net FIDO 1:396/45.28 ....
