It's time once again for The Weekender. This is our bi-weekly departure into the world of amateur radio contests, open source conventions, special events, listener challenges, hedonism and just plain fun. Thanks for listening and, if you happen to get a chance, feel free to call us or e-mail and send us some feedback. Tell us how we're doing. We'd love to hear from you.
Linux in the Ham Shack will have a booth at the QSO Today Virtual Ham Expo. We don't know what the booth will look like yet, what content it will have or what interaction we'll be able to provide with visitors. But we hope it's a great experience and want to thank Eric, 4Z1UG, for sponsoring a place for us in his event. Visit https://lhs.fyi/qthe to register for a free attendee pass.

This Weekend in Hedonism (Segment 3)
Cheryl's Recipe Corner!
Hawaiian Macaroni Salad
Ingredients
1 (1 lb.) box macaroni
2 Tbsp. apple cider vinegar
2 carrots, shredded
1/4 c. onion, shredded (optional)
2 1/2 c. Best Foods (or Hellman's) mayonnaise... no substitutes!
1/4 c. milk
2 tsp. sugar
kosher salt & pepper, to taste
Directions
Cook macaroni according to package directions. Drain well and place macaroni in a large bowl. While macaroni is still hot, sprinkle on vinegar and add carrot and onion. Toss together until well combined. Allow to cool for about 10-15 minutes. In a separate, smaller bowl, whisk together mayo, milk, and sugar. Fold mayo mixture into the macaroni until all the noodles are evenly coated. Add salt and pepper to taste. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours (best if overnight). Gently stir before serving (adding a little more milk if needed, no more than a Tbsp. or two).
Russ's Drink Corner
Noah's Mill Straight Bourbon
Description
Operating as a non-distilling producer, Kentucky Bourbon Distillers, one of names used by the Willett distillery, purchases bourbon from other distilleries, ages it in their warehouses and bottles it as part of their extensive family of labels. In 2012, Willett resumed distilling and has its own releases. Noah's Mill is one of Willett's sourced bourbon brands. When Willett originally released Noah’s Mill, it carried a 15-year age statement but in these times of bourbon shortages, the age statement has been dropped. Now Noah’s Mill is believed to be a blend of bourbon aged four to 20 years.
