Some Like It Hot!...

One of the first people I met when I moved to Jerome from Sedona more than 25 years ago was a local character named Kim Talbot. Kim first discovered Jerome way back in the 1960's and basically fell in love with the little ghost town and the mountain it is perched on.

Kim and I have been neighbors in Deception Gulch for many years. Besides saying that he has been and remains a very good friend... it is difficult to "pigeon-hole" him in any one category! (And why would I want o anyhow?). You could ask the legion of friends that Kim has gathered over the years to describe him and I would bet you would have as many varied descriptions as he has friends. He's just that unique a character. Suffice it to say that Kim is the only "Redneck Hippie" I've ever met! (And that is meant in the highest form of a compliment I can imagine).

So what is this blog entry about, you ask? Well, I'll tell you... for as long as I've known Kim, he has been making and gifting his home-made salsa. He eats it every day and attributes his robust health to that habit. After years of experimenting and perfecting his recipes, he has finally decided to go into business by sharing his wonderful concoction with the rest of the world in the form of "Salsa de Border".

We just put a web site for the new company and you can view it here:

Kim and his lovely Lady, Caroline, invite you to drop by for a visit and, if you're in the neighborhood, swing by their store at 9 South 10th Street in Clarkdale, Arizona (just down the hill from Jerome).

If you enjoy good authentic salsa, you will be glad you did.

Kim makes it in 3 flavors...
There's the Mild flavor of El Salsa Sissy and the medium flavor of El Mucho Macho.
But because Some Like It Hot... there is Kim's favorite... El Burno Gringo!

That's it for today, folks.

Maintain, co-exist and; Rise Above It All!
T.F.O.T.H.

[NOTE: Salsa de Border is no more! My long time friend, Kim Talbot, left this earthly plane.}
