Back yard

I love wendy's back porch. It's gorgeous here today and I wish I was out hiking instead of heading to the office.

That's wendy with our friend johnny when we were up to the Morris Run Legion last weekend.

More philadelphia

Tuesday night's restaurant: El Vez. Yummy, but loud. The table we were seated at sucked - squeezed between a photobooth and the stairs down to the restrooms, so we asked to move. The place was loud. Service was very good. It felt like what Cantina Loco wants to be. Great decor:

After a Cezar Chavez guac appetizer, A got shrimp tacos which he said were really good:

And I got black bean enchiladas. I also got a Stegmaier IPA which had the malty-coffee edge of a black IPA.

After the exam on Wednesday, I wanted to celebrate a least a little. I asked Meredith for some mapping/exploring help and she suggested the Manayunk Brewery & Restaurant. Manayunk is a funky cool neighborhood that I had visited back in probably 1994 with my ex's mom & stepdad. It's gotten a bit gentrified since then - it has a Pottery Barn.

We shared the sampler of eight beers. I was surprised I liked their Black Eye PA - much less of the malty-toasted flavor than other black IPAs. The Dreamin' IPA was my favorite, of course, a crisp double IPA 8.5%, 85 IBUs.

(remember, you can click to enlarge and read the text) A liked the Schuylkill Punch, a raspberry lager.

A's amazingly sculptural sashimi plate (very unusual for a brewpub to have a full sushi bar, but there it was!)

Wheat & malt

Dessert - Jewish apple cake and ice cream.

Then we had the four-hour drive home.

Thank goodness it's over. I'll know mid-April if I passed. I'm taking today off (except accepting phone calls from (e:Terry)), lazing around, enjoying some quiet.

Philadelphia

My beloved mountains! I wish I had my real camerawith me to show the amazing moon & planet conjunction. So many stars!

Traveled to philly tonight, currently at Triumph Brewing Company on Chestnut enjoying a Bengal Gold IPA and listening to a jazz band. A got a Love Potion, too sweet for me. We ordered an insane amount food because A was worried the portions would be tiny. Ooops.
