Well, I hope travel and meal plans have been made, as next week is the feasting holiday of Thanksgiving (sorry non-US people, you really are second class). But no one cares about that, or your fantasy football team. *sigh* Adding insult to the performance this past...
Well, this Sunday is the CLE meeting of the Browns and the Ravens. I was tempted to steal Tonio's dumpster fire images for the links today, but didn't want to confuse and frighten people. Once again, I'll be taking OMWC down into the Dawg Pound to watch the game....
We've made it to November, we're on the downward slide of the year. Change freezes start up, holiday schedules start slowing projects down, and people just plain don't give a shit anymore. But you care not for such musings, you want links and drinks. A bit early, but...
We’ve made it to February, which will be gone shortly. The Suberb Owl visits on Sunday, and I’ll probably spend more time chatting with my friends than watching the game this year.
Here you go. The last terrible Friday with a mocktail recipe.
Locally, we have places do big events for both Burns Night and Bloomsday.
Some things never change. The Grog Shop having an amazing beer selection for a dive bar/concert venue is one of them that I’m thankful for.
If it doesn’t have a double D on the sleeve, it’s just underwear!
Stare too long into the future, and the future stares back at you!
The Christmas pop up bars are still going, but same as Halloween decorations should be down by Thanksgiving, the time for lights is over once Christmas has passed.
Not a pop up bar this time, instead this is just a portion of the lights that have been put up on Public Square for the season. There’s even an ice skating rink.
Yet another pop-up bar. Honestly, I don’t know why they’re so popular here, but they are. There’s over 30 that were
Yet another of our local pop up bars that goes over the top for Christmas. This is the basement bar of Great Lakes, briefly rethemed as the Secret Cellar Bar
Officially out of Thanksgiving season, into Christmas season.
Well, this is the last time I’ll be sharing recipes before the day of feasting, so let’s stock up.
Wasn’t someone asking about finding exotic meats? Unfortunately the girlfriend and I had taken the Rapid up there, so these did not come home with us.
Yeah. Not what either of us will be going with. Just not a fan of tomato juice, but I appreciate the commitment.
It’s never too early in November to prep for Thanksgiving. No, there won’t be (as many) space links, but I’m filling in here.
Back on Terra Firma, and at a real keyboard to put up the links.
I was not cruel enough to hand this garbage candy out last night. Instead it was Frosted Donut Kit Kats and Caramel Cold Brew M&M’s.
So dedicated I’m going this for you while on vacation. Even my work added me to a text chain and apologized for it.
Yet, here I am, typing up links. If some are reused, I’m sure you’ll find something else to talk about.
Every once in a while I get to go someplace fancy. A couple weeks back the girlfriend and I went out to one of my favorite speakeasies for a cocktail class.
Ah… the old ways. Unfortunately, those are not the same singles that have been there since the bar opened, so the ones I put up ~20 years ago are no longer there. No, this is not the same bar as last week.
One of my locals. We do things up right around here.
Yeah, one of the staff got angry at me for taking the broken mech in one match. In my defense, I knew it was broken, they were the ones who were running it with heat disabled, and the rest of the players were OK with it even after the fact. The girlfriend played in this match, I’ll let you lot try to figure out which pilot was her.
At some point I’ll even remember to put these in before the post goes live!
