I love Jesus

but I have mobility issues (apologies to the fabulous Gladys Hardy).....

we spent some time with my MIL today...(early Mother's Day, late J's birthday combo celebration)......

there were gnomes (or Disney dwarves that we're calling gnomes).....

there was a trip to the thrift store that netted me a bunch of shorts that J hates AND a Slytherin t-shirt (for a quarter!!)....

now there's some of this and the evening continues to look up (not actually Bud Light, but beer)......

Pumpkin Ale - Beer O'the Weekend

although it's still in the 90's here....fall brews are starting to show up...Blue Moon Pumpkin Ale is this weekend's beer splurge...

it's a good transitional beer for fall IMO...it's not as heavy or spicy as something called Pumpkin Ale sounds like it might be, but still manages to have a unique taste with just a hint of pumpkin associated flavors...think nutmeg and cinnamon

a good beer to get ready to for the deeper, darker and richer offerings of late fall and winter...worth the $7-ish bucks for a six pack and something I'll be drinking again

Three Beer Weekend

I love this time of year and I love beer

the rhyme is unintentional, the sentiment is not

is beer drinking

an Olympic event?....if it isn't it should be...especially when there are children involved in my vacation
