Beer Diary

Tonight it's St. Lawrence Brewing Co. 'S'S Skinny Dipper India Pale Ale. I bought this beer in my home town of Governuer while on vacation.  7.9%Alcohol.

  And pretty dam hoppy.
Curtis tasted it first and  said... "tastes like fresh paint", and that made me laugh.
So i pour myself a glass...

Nice head ... And then  I taste it...
Wooooo... that is hoppy for sure!
Talk about funky breath the morning! Whoa!
With that being said, i still like it. It's a goodgood beer. Not at the top of my list or anything, but definitely drinkable.

I have two more St. Lawrence brews to review... see you next time.

Beer Diary,

Well today I'm finishing off a six pack of DuClaw's Dirty Little Freak. I bought it at a little gas station in North Carolina on my way home from vacation.
This beer claims there is "No safe word"  and I agree.  It's a coconut chocolate brown ale with a kick.
When you drink this it's like being slapped in the mouth with melted Mounds candy bars, over and over again.  Tonce that dark chocolate flavor begins to fade it leaves a tiny little hint of forceful caramalized malt and hops behind in your mouth. Mmm. Dirty.

Beer Diary,

Beer Diary,
Today I'm enjoying a lovely beer. Samuel Adams Cherry Wheat.

A nice light and crisply refreshing ale with a delicious hint of ripe cherries.
We bought the beer at the Total Wine store in Viera for a pretty reasonable price.

Beer Diary,

I've decided to keep a little beer diary here on my trusty little Google blog.

I love beer. In the last couple of years I have been drinking different kinds of beers testing and treating. Yum. Beer.
 
Anyway... today I am testing out a beer that I bought at ABC from their growler program. I like this idea... keg beer... on tap... in a 32 oz. Reusable bottle.
So.... today's beer is from Engine 15 called 15 Nut Sack imperial brown ale.
This beer is pretty good. Its a nice dark beer, not too hoppy. I'm not much of a fan of the sharpness of IPAs.

This beer is thick, smooth and dark... sort of like Neil Degrass Tyson being rolled around in my mouth.
Time for another glass...

College

So... I'm just sitting here in class waiting for it to start. This is the last week of regular classes. Finals are next week. After that school is over for me for awhile. I'll have my A.A. but there isn't really a place around here for me to continue with my education. I'm not interested being a nurse, a computer IT person or a business major. Can't move closer to a school that has what I want because of children. But it's ok. Anyway... time for class...

Two years can change your whole world

Well. Here I am. Still alive.
Two years ago, I was coming out of a 13 year marriage and embarking on a new life,a new relationship. 
Curtis and I are still together. Still extremely disgustingly happy. He's my other. If i was a man, that's probably who I would be.
I have two new grand children, Lily and Julius. Lily is suspicious of everything and Julius is the happiest little guy ever. 
I've returned to school to get my A.A.
I only had five classes to complete... I graduate in two or the weeks.  :)
Sierra is graduating high school too. She has grown so much. I'm super proud of her.  She has certainly become an amazing little lady.
So that is where I'm going start my newest attempt at blog life...

I have so many things to talk to myself about... life... getting older... weight and body image... being in love... being a mom... being a step mom... loving your best friend....

It's sad

It's sad to read some of those older posts. Less than 6 months ago life threw me into chaos. 

It's funny in a weird way though... It's shows how life can go from a comfortable place, to dark chaos and then come out the other side into a bright happy place.
