Big Eddy

Finally, Leinenkugel has come up with a beer that I would choose to drink: The Big Eddy Imperial Stout. It's just delicious and caramelly, though maybe a little too sweet (and strong!) to have more than one in one sitting. I'm really glad the Muddy Pig had it on tap, last night. It (and a sandwich!) made for a great treat, after my tough treadmill tempo run workout.

2 tulips, red and yellow

Ok, now that the yard is green, and not grey, I'll do some cleanup, maybe even tonight. And will take & share some photos.

We've got sprouts of: Hosta, Solomon's Seal, Narcissus, Scilla, and even Iris. Yay. And buds on the cranberry bush.

one year closer to the big 4-0

Nevertheless, I had a good birthday. Tons of happys and birthdays, an excellent (different!) cocktail or two at Town Talk Diner, then a pint at Merlin's Rest, then a fabulous dinner at the Red Stag Supper Club. Smelts!

What to do, in this most fabulous last year of my thirties?

  • Run a race with my dad

  • Finish a basement

  • Plant another shrub or 4

  • Visit relatives in Missouri

  • Celebrate our 2nd anniversary

  • Enjoy another fabulous Minnesota summer

  • In general, kick some interactive design butt
