A few rumbles of thunder while preparing enchiladas tonight.
Smeg has stocked up on #rum and is looking forward restocking soon.
Need some #ska #entertainment
Hunter's Chicken with chips and peas.
It's not #rum, but the entertainment is close.
In 1776, Scotsman Adam "Smith noted that the British West Indian sugar plantations were so profitable they their returns from rum exports, a byproduct of sugar production, paid for the entire overhead expenses of a sugar plantation. As far as Smith was concerned, this was an achievement without parallel in eighteen-century British imperial agriculture."
