Happy Holidays!

What a crazy week this has been! The biggest snow storm in 40 years! Over 14 inches of snow and ice in Vancouver, Washington alone and more forecast for this evening. The bright side is we get to enjoy a white Christmas, which rarely happens. All the girls are home and we are enjoying time…

Secret Aardvark Habanero Hot Sauce

A guilty pleasure I enjoy is hot sauce. Find the right hot sauce and it can make anything better. Everyone starts with the tried and true Tabasco. From there you can branch out and delve into the world of the insane. My local butcher has over 100 kinds of hot sauce. There’s even an annual…

I am not a fan of the heat. However, I am a fan of flavor and this sauce has it! It’s hard for me to take the heat with the flavor but I do occasionally when I feel the need. A good find my dear!

I go through a bottle a week. Randy is right- it hurts so good. Luckily I enjoy it hot- and this stuff is hot. I’m sure if he sold a slightly less spicy version it would be an even bigger hit (but i don’t think Scot is about that- it is what it is). One of my favorite snacks is baby carrots with a line of Aardvarks along the top.
New Seasons in Portland carries it as well as his stir-fry sauce.
Cheers,
Rob

Where in Seattle, Tacoma, Auburn, Washington can I find Secret Aardvark Sauce ?

Thanks!

Philip,

There is a link in my post for the Secret Aardvark web site. On their site you’ll find a tab for retail locations. If there isn’t one near you, contact them. I’m sure they could ship it to you or even better, maybe you could get them to bring this amazing sauce to the Seattle area!

Let me know if you get some. I’d like to know what YOU think!

The December Lowdown

It’s that time of year when our thoughts turn to our personal lives. Sharing the holidays with our families, taking much deserved time off from work. Our focus changes and this is a good thing. This has increasingly become a busy time for my business and I wanted to share a few updates with you….

According to Ted, I look like a bartender at this Jazz club he frequents in downtown Portland. He showed her my picture, now I’m anxious to see hers…

The resemblance here is uncanny!

I am excited to see the changes coming to your website! You have so many amazing images to show off!

I think a lot of the engagement photos you took of Patrick look like Matt Damon…and I have gotten about half a dozen people saying that I look like Demi Moore in the engagement and wedding pics – but I am chalking all that up to a great photographer! Thanks!
