So I make a wicked bourbon banana bread. Not bragging, just saying.

I happen to really like date square. Homemade so I can add allspice to the date mixture. I'm wondering what kind of alcohol would be as complimentary to date squares as bourbon is to banana bread. any ideas?

mead - half cup or so & topped with powdered sugar or coco flakes (or both)

That's so funny. I was watching 8 out of 10 cats last night and Jimmy Carr brought out a bottle of Mead. Sean had 2 glasses and got a bit silly.

I'm going to see about getting a bottle of this on the weekend and see.

I'll bet a nice dark rum would be good.

I love a few shots of Fireball...just like eating cinnamon hearts, only much much better

yep, I totally agree. Cinnamon hearts burn the taste buds off your tongue after awhile...and they don't give you that enveloping warmth like Fireball does...

I love the smell of hash....I wonder how'd it smell cooking in a date square? I'd probably just end up smoking it all and hitting the mountains and forgetting I was in the middle of cooking something. lol

My mother used to make a wicked Xmas fruit cake with rum, also made her plum pudding with rum. They were not both delicious but could be kept for a long time if needed.
