I’m happy to hear that both friends in Greensboro and Chicago made my jalapeno poppers (from this past Thursday’s post) last night! Michael and Tommy sent me pictures this morning from their Poppers Party. They also sent me a great tip that Tommy learned on Top Chef. They soaked their cut jalapenos in ice water after they seeded them to reduce the spicy kick. Who knows if it helps – but it is worth a try!

PS: If you charmed by their cute faces today – you’re in luck – next week is all about Tommy and Michael’s trip to North Carolina a couple weekends ago!
