    ***Friday GMT***

    Good Morning!! I guess I sound like a broken record here, but hot and humid days with crazy storms in the evening every day this week. Made some fantastic Tikka Masala fish with basmati rice and veggies last night. Seared the mackerel on the charcoal grill before simmering in the sauce...

    Worst place you've ever lived?

    So I moved to Colorado Springs, CO about 5 years ago from Portland, OR because of work, and I hate this place. I've lived many places, and liked some better than others, but have never despised a particular place like I do here. The reasons are many, regional politics, schizophrenic weather...

    Homebrew questions... Help out a n00b.

    Okay, so I've ordered some ingredients for my first batch of homebrew using borrowed equipment. I've helped out the friend who owns the equipment before, but never actually made a batch myself.

    Snowshoes. I went for the first time this past weekend (old-school giant wooden snowshoes) and have been invited to go with a bunch of co-workers a few times. I checked out rentals, but for the money, time spent getting to/from the store, I could probably pick up a reasonable pair. Plus...

    Homebrew noob.

    I had made a few batches with "Mr Beer" but wasn't overly thrilled with the beer. Wife came through with a real homebrew kit for me for Hanukkahmas, purchased from northernbrewer.com. Mom-in-law bought me a double IPA ingredient kit. BadDNA hooked me up with a wort chiller. The goods...
