My brother doesn’t much like porters, but I find them just right for winter.

Me: Well, I was once again passed over for the Nobel Peace Prize. I’d KILL for one of those!
Jackie (sighing): No, you wouldn’t.
Me: No, I wouldn’t. But I would make that joke EVERY SINGLE YEAR.
Jackie (sighing again): Yes, you would do that.

Yesterday at the Blind Pig I filled my growler with their India Brown Ale. Not exactly the hoppy porter I have yearned for, but as close as I’ve found. @jackieLbrewer is drinking the same.

A very nice hike with @jackieLbrewer along the Trillium Trail in Giant City State Park.
I think she was having a good time.

Cocktail hour in the Giant City Lodge. I’ve got a Galaxy IPA from Big Muddy Brewing. @jackieLbrewer has a fancy Brooklyn with Minor Case Rye.

Just a post to show off the Airship Pirate ribbon @limako made for me. Also shown: my lanyard: handwoven silk made by @jackieLbrewer.

Went to #CurtisOrchard with @jackieLbrewer and got a half peck of Zestar apples. I’ve not tried this variety before, but @limako speaks highly of them.
Very nice. They taste more like I remember apples tasting in my youth than modern varieties like Honey Crisp, Cosmic Crisp, or even Pink Lady.

Tilapia from the farmers market, in a spicy cornmeal batter, fried in coconut oil. Served with onion and peppers sauteed in olive oil and some Mexican rice left over from Thursday’s takeout meal. @jackieLbrewer seemed to like it.
