Tonight I have to / get to make chili for our church's Wild West Family Social tomorrow (prizes to be won). Tomorrow morning we will be going to an estate sale to pick up some "good jink." I hope to get something perfectly Gorey-esque for my studio. Sunday may be a Philadelphia Art Museum day, now that all the Ben Franklin Birthday-palooza stuff is dying down. Yes, I will probably race Mariel up the Rocky steps again - although we usually park around back where the steps are actually longer, steeper and harder.

Rahr brewery in Ft Worth Texas for this weekend with my groomsmen. You walk in and you get 5 bottle caps for free beer, its a good weekend excursion.

I keep seeing Rahr beer around, and have yet to buy it. How is it? Any recommendations? I love Fort Worth, but I neither have the time nor money to make it up there this weekend...

I haven't. I'm still in NJ ... Baja Nuevo York. Philly is just two streets and a bridge away ... Okay, those 2 streets and a bridge take 45 minutes to navigate but ...

Oh, right. Geography. Sorry. Anyways, I ask because there's now a viable possibility that I may end up in Philly some time in the next couple years (give or take). Lisa and I dropped in last summer - cool town!

Whenever possible ... I've been drinking a lot of ales lately (HopDevil and Blind Faith) I'm going to dial it back with Stella or Pilsner Urquell. I've totally lost my taste for Harp or Bass - going against my Irish roots; I'm sorry, but they're just too gummy - and I call Yuengling Lager "Yuengling Lacquer" anymore.

Good thought ... I should check out the case price on that.I have to go to ebay and find some new glasses, too (if I don't find any good one at the sale) I can't find my "Pete's Wicked Lager" one c.1990.

I had a Stella a while ago and she was quite pleasant. A nice little Belgian. Full bodied, playful, a little sassy. Grassy, fruity, and little earthiness to her. Of course, it was outside and it was Summer. Maybe you just got a bad one.Oh, ... it's Stella Artrois, you don't like!!! My bad.

I have "invented" the most wonderful weekend breakfast.I take two eggs over easy, lay them on a warm tortilla, add a bit of jack cheese, half a dozen shots of chipotle sauce. Fold and eat taco style, Wonderfully messy.

It's almost as good as my other favorite breakfast - "Egg in a Hole"Butter a slice of bread. Cut a whole in the middle with a juice glass. Put the bread in a hot pan - cast iron works especially good, plus adds a outback breakfast quality to it. Crack an egg, duh, into the hole. Flip if you like it that way. Serve with jelly on the side.

Mike - Isn't there an English breakfast that involves a hard boiled egg and a pint of Guinness???

I eat that - only I add refried beans and eat them standing up over the sink. Do dishes to wash or mess to clean up.
I am off on the next leg of my triathlon.
