I couldn’t wait to share a new #Holiday with you which falls on January 22nd Hot Sauce Day #HotSauceDay. I can tell you Charlie, David and all of Charlies friends are going to be excited to share #HotSauceDay.
Hot Sauce is a staple in our home and on our grocery list. Charlie loves anything with Ghost Pepper just as his friend Bradley does. David always has to have Tabasco Sauce although David likes to try new Hot Sauces when he can.
I don’t know about you but I can’t have anything hot and I stay away from Hot Sauce. But David’s mom Sherry is just like Charlie and David and she loves Hot Sauce, Hot Foods and even Jalapeno Peppers while David’s dad is like me and doesn’t like Hot Foods. How about you?
