Your boots are perfect.

I'm at a nascar-themed neighborhood bar in corning, ny and the options are limited: busch, molson canadian, mic light, coors light on tap, bud, yuengling, and guiness in the cooler. Yuengling is shockingly sweet compared to my usual ipas.

Bodhi is sooo cute! His dirty old grandpa says he's grabbing for the wrong thing.

Happy birthday, @leetee!!!! I hope you have a wonderful day filled with new Chucks!

Deadline for submitting proposals for the 2011 Buffalo Infringement Festival is May 1. The festival will be July 28-Aug. 7... it starts right after the NYS bar exam. Excellent timing. :-)

But my neighbor is a freak, snowblowing his back deck at 11pm!

I finally bought my own copy of qwirkle! Got it at hyatt's. Thanks, @puddlediving, for letting me keep yours for so long. Next game purchase will be ticket to ride.

I gave jennie 1/5 of the afghan at her shower... All that's left is edging and tucking in the ends. Soo much quicker than jill's!

An e:peep suggested we make beer, since we like drinking it so much. Here's a recent display of game night beers. And cookies.


But this is what I picture when someone says beer-making...

Grain mill


Food scale


Five-gallon carboy with tap


A stack of books


Yards of plastic tubing


Kettle for cooking, copper tubing for cooling (we forget its proper name and the brewmaster is downstairs)



Basement sink - brewing was banned from upstairs after an explosion busted a dining room window and threw shards of glass into the newly plastered ceiling.


Hydrometer


Kegs and CO2 charger in 1965 GE fridge (freezer on the bottom - great item!! donated by Penn College, refurbished by Lou)


Chemicals and stuff


The stove caught on fire and has been replaced by a propane burner (probably from a turkey fryer)


I hear there are $100 kits available...
