Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.

I prefer Redeye wiskey over the wine, but it was pertty darn good
Hunt it like any other wild game, e.g. Squirrels
Seriously? Does one purchase said armadillo or does one scrape it up off the side of the highway?
