Dave1291 Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 Bee stings? Hahaha! On the road years ago and was drinking a Pepsi while taking a well deserved "break" when I THOUGHT I swallowed something. Yea, ok everyone was laffin but me. I could actually FEEL something crawling up my throat. Now the guys were rollin hearing that! Someone grabbed a big flashlight and was looking in my mouth for whatever got in my Pepsi. I could feel it moving up my throat then I'd swallow and it would start all over again. So, mouth open, I'm shoving paper towels in my cheeks trying to soak up the saliva so I wouldn't swallow it back down. All the while one of the guys held this flashlight over my mouth. Ok, it wasn't funny anymore when my throat and chest started getting hot. Long story short we went to an ER and some old Doc gave me peanut butter crackers thinking that would knock it down into my stomach and the acid kill it. Nope, so he scoped my throat and could see where I'd been stung. So he sends me back out into the waiting room with the guys and some woman brought her daughter in who was in false pregnancy. Here I am, mouth open, stuffed with paper towels, head back looking up at the ceiling lights. She's sitting across from me staring. Then the BEE flew out of my mouth and circled my head while she lets out this "OH MY GOD!" at the top of her voice. I said what was it and she said it was the biggest bee she'd ever seen. Yea, go figure. Doc came out and said no charge cause NO ONE would believe it! I STILL hear about that one! lol 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 I almost suffered a similar fate but felt something weird and pulled the can back. There was the wasp trying to escape from drowning in the can. Freaky. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd imagine someone that is really allergic might have died from a sting inside the throat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd imagine someone that is really allergic might have died from a sting inside the throat. Trust me, that's JUST the way it happened. Long story short. Nope, no pics from the Doc but he said he saw multiple places where it had stung me and he was concerned about my throat swelling shut. That was freaky in itself. My throat was raw for a couple days after. True story though and one of the dumbest things that ever happened to me. The woman across from me in that ER waiting room totally freaked. I heard it fly out and flipped. Asked her where it went cause I wanted to see it. hahaha That was back in the early 70's though. Today w/cells I'd have been on the back of a milk carton! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators dtel Posted June 2, 2021 Moderators Share Posted June 2, 2021 Whenever we went camping if you left a soft drink on a table bees would go after the sugar water inside. More than once I went to get a drink and felt something moving in the opening, never got stung. Switched to beer just to be safe. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnJ Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 Well my guys, don't think they're going much further at all. Don't know really, this is the first time since `00 that I have not seen at least 60 games except for that year they took off! Seen zero this year except highlights afterwards from the NHL app. Even the replays 48 hrs later have been blacked out here. Dang Dave that is a wild experience, glad it wasn't me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators dtel Posted June 3, 2021 Moderators Share Posted June 3, 2021 A little salt, pepper, butter and a small amount of lemon juice, and a bunch of smoke. Salmon, yes I did eat a little raw.

When I smoke mine it's even more pink inside than that. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grasshopper Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 when I smoke mine... it's green to start and is ashen gray when I'm cooked. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- I made a pot of spaghetti last night. And it was good. We'll have some left after we feed the wife's secretary. Well, I have put off coating the roof about as long as I can. Pruned trees away and swept the roof. Found a 5gal bucket... not cracked... damn! Nothing left but to haul the coating up and smear it around. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnJ Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 Spaghetti is always good, I made Fettuccini Carbonara with chicken, bacon and alfredo two days ago have one serving left! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 I'm going to have to call you on that John. Alfredo is not Carbonara, but your dish sounds pretty good. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnJ Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 Well I haven't tried to make the real cheese sauce, Knorr has a good package for it you mix with milk (yea I know) and it takes ten minutes. If I had the basil growing outside this year some would have been in it too. Two cloves made it real good. Okay so any of you chefs or wanna-be's know? Read or heard years ago that you should slice your garlic long ways for some particular reason, so if it's chunky that really couldn't apply. But I usually start like that if I'm dicing or mincing it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1291 Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 Wouldn't know John. Dumped a bag of Chicken Voila in the skillet last night. Lunch today and dinner this evening. About all the cheffin I wanted yesterday. 😂 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 I think the main thing is just to pull out any green shoots which is said to be bitter. It's what my wife does when prepping garlic for the hot sauce. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnJ Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 (edited) I remember when that Voila stuff came out. Great when I worked a lot and had the dog and other things to take care of! * the garlic q? I copied and searched exactly what I said and came up with nothing except safety precautions for your fingers when slicing I don't look away when I'm using a knife and that works well, slicing wet whole milk Mozzarella is tough though!
