The ways to Enjoy Drunk in Summer day

 

June and July are the months that herald the heat and are approaching pretty fast. It is mid summer and temperatures can soar, particularly in South East Asia. With all around heat a chilled glass of beer is an excellent anti-dote to thwart the rising temperature.
Beer and Company
You will need company and what better than your wife or girl friend or an old pal to help you pass the hot afternoon. That would be good company. All in all beer is a great refresher and along with good food is an excellent pastime.
Combinations with Beer
Beer drinkers may refine their drinks and some may down it with lemonade. This is what is called the 'shandy'.But then you may try some other combinations as well in case the original taste of beer does not appeal to you or you just want to experiment. Thus your innovations can include a chilled glass of beer with Ginger ale or tonic and maybe even a cola. Tastes that can become exotic.
There are other combinations also that can be tried. As an example you can douse beer with a shot of whiskey or southern comfort. The taste will thrill you and you could spin out outlandish yarns like the day you shot the rogue elephant. In fact anything will go. It is so infectious.
 If you want to try something more exotic then a combination of beer 60 ml vodka and sugar syrup laced with lemon and ice cubes is excellent. This is often called the ‘skip and go naked' drink. Lace it with a shot of gin and the heat will just dissipate. Moreover you will love the tangy taste and so will your companion.
Food to go with Beer
You will need good food with the beer you guzzle. Anything will go with beer but salads, shell fish, poultry and meat or even some spicy food like a chicken tikka will add zest to your beer drinking session. You can also try a Pizza with its many combinations along with ham or cheese. You could even try fried prawns and roasted meats. Everything goes with good beer.
Sip the beer slowly and relish the taste. Let the froth settle and then drink from the mug. Keep spare bottle s chilled and handy and have a refill as and when in the mood. Let a good butler serve you the acompaniment of the food. Most important it is a catalyst to good company and at the end you will feel it is an afternoon well spent.

Spiral Honey Baked Ham for our Christmas Dinner

 

Our main dish again this year for our Christmas Dinner is the spiral honeybaked ham.
I have purchased a 5 lb ham ( we will have only 8 adults and one child for dinner this year) three days ago, to avoid the long lines. But I was mistaken. I still waited for 45 minutes to be served since there were about 100 customers ahead of me. If you wait to buy your ham today, expect a line from 1 to 3 hours. I was wondering why this ham is very popular compared to other hams. The reason is explained in this short posting from the Honeybaked ham website as follows:

"The spiral ham had its origins at HoneyBaked Ham Company over 50 years ago. Harry J. Hoenselaar opened the first HoneyBaked Ham Company store in Michigan. He made hams one at a time - and made sure every one met his exacting quality standards. He'd start with only the best quality bone-in ham, marinate it in his secret curing recipe, smoke it for as long as 24 hours over select hickory embers, slice it and then glaze it with his now-famous honey sweet and crunchy glaze. At that time, the spiral ham was born, Harry patented the unique spiral slicer he invented and the rest is history.

There are a number of benefits to spiral sliced hams. For one, spiral slicing is convenient. You don't need to worry about carving your ham when you buy a HoneyBaked spiral ham. Secondly, spiral slicing creates uniform, perfectly sized servings of our moist and delicious ham. Third, the spiral cut makes the ham more attractive when it's placed on your table. Plus, because Harry spiral sliced his ham first and then added his delectable sweet glaze, none of the glaze is lost during the slicing process".

I have tasted Chinese ham and other brand of smoked hams before. They are more salty compared to the honey baked which has a sweet taste and indeed really delicious. I paid about $6 per pound for the ham I purchased three days ago, not a bad buy. Of course besides the ham we will have other dishes such as Dungeness crab omelet, chicken macaroni salad, Filipino noodles ( pancit), chicken adobo with salad greens, mango ice cream, peach pie, Hawaiian rolls and steam rice. I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Safe New Year.
