Serving Crème de menthe over vanilla ice cream is good.

I tried creme de menthe straight at a party once.
Didn't need to use mouthwash for over a week.

Mint is a flavor I don't like, I don't use mint toothpaste, I use
fennel flavored toothpaste, Tom's of Maine has it, a Colgate
product... I still use Sen Sen as a breath freshener, licorice.
I use Lavoris mouthwash, it's cinnamon flavored. The scent of mint
reminds me of public toilet deodorant. Our favorite bathroom cleaner
is Fabuloso, lavender scented... another Colgate product that was
devloped for use in the tropics, contains an insect repellent.

Me too. Like I said, I'm doing something stupid. It's probably
something really simple and obvious too but as a self trained cook, I
stumble sometimes. It's apt to be the heat level I am using I think
but it could be something really obvious if you saw me try to do it
that once pointed out had us both laughing our asses off at how I could
have missed that.
