I'd commit atrocities for a Red Stripe right now. What am I going to do when I fire up the BGE?

Fire up the Baltimore Gas Electricity?

Big Green Egg. It's sort of an updated Kamado, and an excuse to play with fire. www.biggreenegg.com

Ah. A "grill." I have heard of these mythical contraptions. Unfortunately, it is illegal for me to grill anything anywhere in my neighborhood, since I can't find a point that is the requisite distance from trees and buildings to satisfy King County's laws. And if a neighbor reported me, and I actually had to discuss with a deputy the legality of cooking a piece of meat over a totally-contained fire, then my head would explode and I'd have to immediately join a militia and go underground.

So I'm afraid it's the George Foreman Grill for me.

I'm trying to convince Mum to put a fire pit in at home. She's been to Argentina and seen how they cook, and now is hooked.

Her partner wants somewhere to cook in a camp oven, and I want somewhere to slowly roast an entire lamb, over glowing hardwood coals.

Not to mention that in Winter I'll provide heat outside.

Since it is a late St. Paddy's day

My first black and tan

Now that is a cool looking drink, most especially the fish. I'm gonna guess the top is guiness, but whats the bottom?

Harp.

It tasted nice too.

Harp being another kind of beer?

Yep, another Irish beer. Though, I don't believe the brewery is Irish owned anymore. Another variation is to use Guinness and Bass Ale to make the black and tan

I never would have guessed that two beers would have stayed seperate so well. But then I stoped taking science classes years ago.

If you pour the stout over the back of a spoon, it'll stay separated pretty well. So, harp first, then stout over the back of spoon. Oops, gave away all my secrets.

BWA HA HA HA!!!

At last I know the truth of Shake's drink preparations, the world shall now be mine!

Freshly brewed natural chamomile tea. hot hot hot!
Brown sugar; still haven't stocked up with honey yet.

_{It will make my headache go away...}

Cheap wine from a box.

Gotta get beer tonight... Something like Hoegaarden, but not actually Hoegaarden. Actually no, it's cold - something like Guinness, but not Guinness. Probably some kind of evil milk stout that will make dinner unnecessary.

Blueshift and I are currently having tea in Oakland. He's having a black/green tea with lavender called Walking the Tight Rope (which he felt the need to put milk in, and I kindly let him without a fuss) and I'm having some kind of herbal berry tea that smells alarmingly like blueberry concentrate, but the taste is actually pleasant and subtle. Tart and herbal.

Have you noticed that blueberry does that? Had a blueberry/cranberry juice a while ago, and the smell of blueberries was overwhelming, but it didn't taste excessively of blueberries...

Maverick Supreme Lager - a new beer from a new Edmonton brewer. Nice - full flavoured and smooth. They age it for 45 days after brewing.
