Hamvention 2019 Campaign
Eyeball QSO
E-mail from Paul, KE5WMA
What Linux build, and which packages, would be best for a totally blind ham? At the moment this ham is using an iPhone, to get on EchoLink, to participate in the Handiham nets. 73, Paul, KE5WMA.
Let dough rise. Once doubled in size, preheat your oven to 375. Mix together olive oil, parmesan and seasonings into a small bowl and set aside. Divide loaf of bread in half and roll each half out into a circle. On the circle, about 1" from the edge, lightly brush the oil mixture onto your bread. On one half of the circle, place your pepperoni and mozzarella cheese. Bring the "plain" side of the circle over and crimp the edges together (to make it a half-moon pocket of goodness!); place on a well greased baking sheet and bake for about 30 minutes. At this point, remove bread from oven, brush on some of the olive oil mixture and return to oven for 10-15 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes after removing from oven, use a pizza cutter to cut into strips about 2" wide, and serve with marinara sauce for dipping.

Smooth Ambler Old Scout American Whiskey
Description
Old Scout American Whiskey is a union of two whiskies distilled from classic bourbon mash bills. One is aged in new oak barrels and the other matures in rejuvenated, re-charred bourbon casks. While this unique aging excuses the marriage from being called bourbon, it shares all of the character and drinkability you would expect from a whiskey on the brink of being one. Like the other Old Scout whiskeys, it is blended in limited, hand selected batches and without chill filtration.

Color: Light amber
Nose: Green apple, butter cake, hint of dark roast coffee, graham crackers, hint of rye spice
Taste: Baking spices, Swedish gingerbread (pepparkakor), oak, sweet corn, a hint of mint, rye dryness on the tongue
Finish: Long fade of pepparkakor and a touch of oak bitterness fading into vanilla, mint and dry spice
Price: $35 (750ml)
Rating: 85
