A Nice Thing Happened To Me

Between the rain and the sun today, I found time to check in the digital fridge, looking for a snack. And there it was, right on the center shelf, next to the last bottle of Guinness:



Someone was kind to me today. Merrily Down The Stream gave me an award! Stop by her place, and check it out, say hello. An award for something good, that's a lagniappe, for sure.

Happy Wednesday, one and all.

  1. Ah, bless Merrily...she knows how much you deserve this. And have earned it. And want it. And paid for it...oh wait...sorry. No...I mean...

    Go back to the fridge. Have a Guiness for me....

    love you
    :))

    Congratulations! If you run out of Guiness, I have some single malt with your name on it.

  4. Last Guinness?!! Holy hell!

    That's no good at all. I'll start a batch of Kentucky Breakfast Stout right away. Let's see....

    18 lbs of American Two Row Barely
    2 lbs of Black Patten Malt
    1 lbs Flaked Barley
    1 lbs Carapils
    1 lbs Smoked Malt
    1 lbs. Chocolate Malt
    Should I put some Bourbon soaked Oak chips in the fermenter?

  11. That award seems to perfect for you! Congrats! You need to make a run to the beer store, young man! Wait... can you buy it in the grocery sotre and walmart and stuff? I live in PA and we CONTROLLED BY THE STATE! We have to go to the Beer Distributors and some bars can sell beer by the 6 pack. but no more than 2 6-packs at a time! dumb laws.
