eau de rotten egg

in the book i found on deer-proofing your yard/garden/flowers, there is a recipe called eau de rotten egg, and i mixed up a batch today!

in blender, ~ 4 cloves garlic, 2 cups H2O, run on high till garlic is pureed.
                 ~add 2 eggs and (optional) 2T tabasco sauce, red chili pepper
                ~whir it all till well-mixed, put in covered container and wait 2 or 3 days till it's thoroughly vile smelling.   apply by sprinkling  or pouring on plants the deer love.

i put the covered jar in my studio where it gets hotter than the hinges at high noon in hell... really... so it should be pretty rotten in a couple of days.  stay tuned for results.
