Re: Wedding Planning!
We'll be staying in a cute little lake town, Grand Marais I'm late to comment on this, but Grand Marais is a great choice for a local-yet-far-enough-away-to-make-it-special honeymoon. It's a great little town. Kinda tourist trappy, but quaint, and cute. RE Gift Opening: it's most definitely a thing...

Does Canada have Netflix and Jack 'n the Box? You do realize that there are no Jack in the Boxes in Chicago, right? Also, Canuckistan isn't all that bad. It's the Newfie's you've got to look out for.

I learned what my credit score was today, after wondering about it for years.

Re: Relax, Don't Worry, Have a Homebrew
The Chocolate Milk Stout turned out every bit as amazing as I had hoped. It also went fast. It was in high demand, and I only ended up with 4 bottles of it for myself. It's going to be the first beer I add to my regular rotation of beers that I brew. Still aging a gallon of it on Oak cubes, hope to ...

Re: Relax, Don't Worry, Have a Homebrew
I'm really not sure. That's a pretty vintage recipe and doesn't line up with a beer style that I know very well. I think the Treacle would make it a dark sweet beer, somewhat in line with a porter or stout. With that, I'd probably use an ale yeast of some sort. Probably a Dry British Ale strain of s...

Agreed, I remember when this place was first mentioned in the books and how awesome we thought that was. It's pretty awesome that the book mentions garnered so many long standing members.

They smoke a pork shoulder or other hunk of meat and then it's cut up or pulled apart. When prepared on a smaller scale the hand pulled pork is more common. Larger scale servings usually cut it up with knives.

as a quick lesson: Stout : a typical beer style where the malts have been given a darker roast. Chocolate Stout : a stout that's had chocolate flavoring added.

How can you stand it, Noodle? I remember how season 3 ended. I had to watch the season 4 premier right after I saw the finale. Well, to be honest, I just finished season 3 like a week ago, so It's not like I've been sitting on it for months or anything. Where were you able to watch Season 4 online?...

I grew up playing Nerts. but nobody knows that game so I can't play it with anybody now.
It's like a multiplayer fast paced solitare. We always played in teams, with either two or three teams playing. It's fun.

I'm caught up on Breaking Bad through the end of Season 3. Netflix doesn't have Season 4 streaming, and I've been too lazy to try to stream it other ways. I will catch up soon though.
Feel free to discuss. I'm loving the show.
