@floor9 Or maybe he sends Joe to kneecap you with a pipe wrench. #
@kfinsand Maybe it won’t be as swamped this year! Either way, I’ll be there *early* on a weekday. #

Date October 29, 2008

Couldn’t sleep, so I got up a couple of hours early. Doesn’t change the fact that it was 4 AM IN THE MORNING. #

@MarsPhoenix So when do you break into a rousing chorus of “Daisy Bell”? #

@KatMayne You’ve completely mischaracterized the context of his comments, and nowhere has he said the Constitution is “fundamentally flawed” #

Relief and leftovers

Date October 27, 2008

As it turned out, I didn’t need to order pizza or go grab some Thai food, as the chili turned out surprisingly well.  Of course, I doused it with some Tabasco Sauce before adding shredded cheddar on top, so that extra dose of spice might have helped a bit.  But, it was thick, rich, and [...]

Adventures in cooking

Date October 26, 2008

I’m a pretty good cook when it comes to most things, and I know both what I like to eat as well as what I like to cook, but occasionally I get things wrong.  Like the chili that’s simmering on the stove at the moment, for example.  I have a feeling that Hanne’s going to [...]

Searching through recipes to cook tonight…upon Saint Crispin’s Day! #
Got a pork loin and surrounding veggies in the oven, currently drinking a Beer Valley Leafer Madness Ale. Later will be expensive-ish wine. #

Upon Saint Crispin’s Day

Date October 25, 2008

Ah yes, a date which shall live in infamy, mostly because I’ll bring it up whenever the opportunity raises itself, and a few in which it doesn’t.  Saint Crispin’s Day, 2008: the date in which Hanne tried to convince me the William the Conqueror hailed from the Netherlands.  It took a trip to Wikipedia to [...]

Making fish and chips for dinner, along with a selection of British ales…guv’nor. #

Getting back to my Roots

Date October 20, 2008

Though Roots Brewing is my final destination for the evening, I decided to stop by for a beer and food at the Lucky Lab brewpub first, as I wanted to try their fresh hop beer called “The Mutt.”  It got its namesake because they used 175 lbs. of various types of hops, and the specific [...]

Cooking a nice dinner of sweet and sour unstuffed cabbage with wild rice and green salad. Kind of makes up for all the beer I had earlier. #
@kfinsand Sorry, I must have had more than I intended to. #
Making beer and chicken stock at the same time. My apartment is going [...]
