TGIF and TGVNCW! Thanks Rod!

I've often checked the comparison shopper. Today was the first time I've looked around the whole site. There's a wealth of info there! It's a shame it won't be updated anymore.

Did you treat the apples with anything to prevent browning? I have been thinking of doing some, but have yet to try.

Very cool. Congrats on 1 year!

Good stuff! That's a nice humi. You might have a keeper.

Brewed a batch of my "public house" pale ale today. 1.060, all cascade pale that satisfies my hop cravings without getting stupid. Now I'm looking at a foreign extra stout to throw on this yeast when it's finished fermenting.

ran out of coffee filters... a ridiculous lack of preperation.

Merry Christmas everyone!

I have a buddy whose family does 21 types of fish. Would it be awkward to ask him to adopt me?

I'd be happy to wake up with just these two presents under the tree. The wife has it so stuffed now that I don't think they'll fit. Bummer.

Happy Festivus!
