So I'm going to visit my friend from another country, and I want to impress his dad with some spicy cooking. Can somebody recommend me THE SPICIEST chili sauce? This guy only seems to be affected by ghost pepper sauce, because he'll swallow up any of the spiciest curries like it's candy. No restaurant he's ever been to can ever cater to his spicy needs. My friend says there's no chance of surprising him with anything spicy. Perhaps some sort of Trinidad Scorpion chili sauce?

I need a nice beginners gardening book, preferably something with lots of pictures. My girlfriend is eager to start planting bushes, flowers, and veggies so I thought it would be a nice thing to get her.

What's a good bug spray that won't also kill me and my girlfriend? You also might have little fruit flies. So try cleaning any drains or food disposals you might have.

Yea, if they are fruit flies just grab some sticky paper stuff and they'll be gone in a few days. Just make sure you don't have anything in your drains/trash cans where they can lay the eggs and hatch.

I've also found taking a ramekin or shallow bowl and filling it with a mixture of cider vinegar and a few drops of dish soap (and maybe a small slice of fruit) and then covering it with plastic wrap and poking some holes in it works wonders. The fruit flies go after the cider vinegar, get trapped under the plastic wrap and the soap in the vinegar kills them.

^^^That method has worked great for me too. Red wine also works pretty well. ------------------------- A lawyer friend of mine just did me a huge favour out of the kindness of his heart, and I'd like to get him a nice thank you gift. He's a family man in his 50s, likes golf and hockey, doesn't really drink much, but he has a super funny weird sense of humour. I'm thinking maybe some kind of interesting knick-knack for his office... probably in the $20-50 range. Any ideas? Thanks!

If he's a DVD guy you could get him Legends of Hockey or Hockey: A Peoples History. Both of them are excellent and extremely well researched docs about the history of hockey.

I have this which was a random airport buy, it's been perfect though. Much less tight than the cheap free ones you get on planes, very lightweight but still secure. I use it at home too, since my new place doesn't have blackout curtains yet.

Bucky's 40 Blinks mask are the best I've used. Their quality used to be pretty lovely but now they seem to be back up with the price point. They have some sort of soft shell in them that keeps the fabric away from your eyelids which can be the most irritating part of trying to sleep with a mask on.

Can anyone recommend a good set of hiking shoes for medium to rough terrain. What brand should I be looking for? The main purpose really is to go off the trails and for some forest camping. I don't have back or leg problems but comfort is a plus as always.

Lascivious Sloth posted:I would like a recommendation for a very thin, nondescript wallet. I've been rocking a Butterfly wallet for a couple months now. I carry six cards and whatever cash I happen to have. It could probably hold double that or more no problem. I never carry those stupid loyalty cards, everyone will take a phone number just fine. It's so drat light I don't notice it at all. The only downside I've had with it is anything less than a full size card will not stay in it. It's not rigid at all, the cards themselves provide the structure. Never had any regular cards or cash fall out though.

The Duck Bill is too thick and annoying. That raised clip pulls/tears at your pants and eventually leaves a mark. There are thinner ones of that type of make which are good, like this one my friend has. The cards slide into the back, and they stay without moving. When I went looking a few years ago, I settled on this. Mine is made from parachute cloth and is about as thin as his, I just like the billfold better than the clip.

I recently decluttered my wallet and went with a foldwallet from fiveleft: http://www.fiveleft.ca/shop/4569169623/foldwallet/3625664 I can also recommend pretty much anything from fiveleft, I have on of their careercarrier bags; it's about 5 years old now, I use it almost daily and it looks as good as new, and I get compliments pretty much every time I take it out. It looks masculine without being too overcompensating, and it's big enough to take a laptop or drill or bottle of whisky without being bulky. Their stuff's fairly expensive but the guy makes his own leather and it's all handmade in North America.

I could suggest a X-Mini 2, it uses a normal audio plug, and can be charged with a Mini-b Usb plug, and lasts for 6+ hours on a charge. Bought one off ebay, and I really like it, neat for when you just want to hear some music while you're showering, without having to rely on the lovely speakers on my phone. ( You can even buy a bunch of them, and chain them together, but I have no idea why you would want to. )
