beer1

After the Taco Ride tonight, I transfered the above pictured liquid into another carboy for second fermenting.  Looks tasty, right?  Okay, beer doesn’t actually look all that appetizing until it is ready to drink.  All you can see above is some sediment and yeast hanging out at the top of what you can’t see - a cloudy liquid:  at this stage of the process the beer is very much a living thing.  It can’t be rushed, and it is very much worth the time invested.

magazine

If you’ve been to my place, you already know I have a penchant for the written work - there are books everywhere.  But behind the books are also old magazines that I can’t seem to recycle.  Today in my search for jesus (in popular culture) I entered the magazine store on Hawthorne for the first time.  It was glorious, as you can see from the picture taken with my phone, above.
In other news, this site has crossed the two hundred page mark.  That’s right, there are two hundred separate pages to see here. Yeah.
