mixed nuts, swiss cheese slices
A Grey Goosed Bloody Mary while waiting for dinner.
Me too. Delicious.⇧ I've been known to roll the nuts inside the cheese slice for a quite tasty protein pick-me-up.
Fortunately I did not have to sell it here. Try to sell it as "less filling" and "less calories" and just maybe...I've tried to sell the cocktail as a snack to the girlfriend, but she says I have to acknowledge it as a drink. I like the rules in your house better.

There is no "super" before "Touchofevil" so it makes sense that she would see through my foolish suggestions. You're on your own.Super girlfriend unfortunately also has a super effective BS meter (that freakin' thing will beep at the slightest obfuscation).
In addition to every attempt at "rebranding" of alcohol having failed ("but think about all the tomato juice in the Bloody Mary or the fresh lemons and mineral water in a Tom Collins -" BEEP, BEEP, BEEP, "nope, they are all just cocktails"), my attempts to classify a slice of fruit cake as a fruit-and-vegetable serving or chocolate-dipped candied oranges as the same have all been met with a BEEP, BEEP, BEEP from her always-on B.S. meter.
Make it dark chocolate. Anti-oxidants, dontchaknow?chocolate-dipped candied oranges
Cored jalapeño peppers filled with cheese & bacon bits, & grilled in the Chile grill in the oven. Nacho cheese Doritos while watching the game. Goes better with tequila that popcorn does!
You lucky dog, you.
I finished all of mine. Enjoy!
......I love the booze-filled chocolate Santas our friends the Germans have perfected.....
