Pooter,
  Congrats on the salsa award.  Hot Sauce Festival.  It would take a brave person to be a salsa judge!  ;D

Very Cool  8) ... or should I being saying "Hot !" :o

SO does it have any tomatoes in it? I ask as I love salsa but have developed and allergy to tomatoes. If there are no tomatoes this may be a good alternative.

Congrats!

Major congratulations, Pooter!

You, a chef - who knew  ???  ;D

Read your response to me on the local Houston ANA meeting - didn't respond back because I didn't want to hijack again (see, Phyl, I'm trying to comply with the rules here  ;) ).

Will catch up with you later via email.

Best,

I don't actually "make" trouble..just kind of attract it, fine tune it, and apply it in new and exciting ways

Thanks everyone!  I was just as shocked as the next guy about taking 2nd place (or any place for that matter).. There were over 400 entries, so I had resigned myself to know that it was very unlikely..  I guess we all know about longshot odds, eh? ;)

DMH: to answer your question, no there are no tomatoes.

As far as the recipe goes... Umm.. you add some of this... a little bit of that... some of that other thing (but not too much).  ;)

I may just have to make some more for the party we have at Kay's house.  Hahah..

That's my favorite kind of recipe, Poot.

DHM - be careful, tomatoes and strawberries are closely related (who knew?) so people are often allergic to both.

You know, Pooter, every time I see your profile picture come up with that goofy grin, the double thumbs-up,  the Steve watchcap,  and the "Official Breeze Conjurer PBW" line, well,  it just cracks me up!!!

Yeah, I love Pooter's profile picture, too.

Speaking of Steve, where the heck has he been lately??
