We had another excuse to overindulge with food.

*sigh*

*burp*

Sittin' outdoors munchin' from a loverly tin of salted cashews, CAB in-hand.

<SLAP!>.... bloody mosquitoes!
 
You can keep them 'skeeters, Bro!

Overcast and 65-ish here. Gettin' ready to indulge in some leftovers this evening, but not until we've finished up the "spirits" we're working on! :cheers:
 
No Boxing Day here....Contractors all over the GarageMahal! Haven't eaten anything except a bowl of cereal at b'fast & a couple of hamburger patties with A-1 at lunch!
 
Cold morning (32 deg) but sunny! Two farm calls and one surgery and now home for lunch and the heat is not working! More work! Is it not a working man's Holiday?

Had to work today, but I left about a half-an-hour early. I'm sitting here now with a Schneider hefe-weizen. My local beer distributor gave me a bottle for Christmas. I never had one before and was quite surprised at how dark it poured for a hefe-weizen. Not too bad, but flavor a bit thin. Bananas and cloves with nice carbonation. Overall pretty good, but I've had better hefe-weizens. Hey it was the right price. I'll indulge in an Anchor porter after this. :thirsty:
 
2 hours of snow shoveling/snowblowing/roof clearing this morning... after the 2 hours I spent doing it last night when I got home.

Stupid winter. Balmy 23f and sunny-ish here today.
 
Now I feel guilty! Me an' Brer Mickey seem to be the only ones kickin' back!
 
Started the day with leftover crab quiche, then spent several hours taking people through the museum today, came home for leftover pasta and sauteed squash plus a Yocco's Hot Dog (local institution that put Lee Iacocca through Lehigh University). More leftovers tonight, then the next round of company starts tomorrow with two more big meals here...then to Pat's Steaks Sunday for lunch before the Eagles - Cowboys game and more company here for dinner Monday night (18 at the table then).

We often stop at Fogelsville to get gas on the way back from BeaveRun or Summit Point and I've seen the Yocco's at that exit It's the exit near the glass-front building with the giant beer vat inside.

Now you've got me curious. I'll have to try Yocco's some time....

That is the Rt 100 Yocco's. The tradition is to have a few dogs with everything with chocolate milk and pierogies. I skip the chocolate milk myself. The steak sandwiches are popular too, but the dogs are what made their reputation.
 
Doc- Kickin back here cursing the white stuff trying to finish yesterdays bubbly. hic!

This has put an image in my head of grass-skirted Hawaiians doing reels: The Gay Gordons? Dashing White Sergeant? A proper Ceilidh band?

Though a luau with roast pig in the balmy tropics sounds very appealing....

I lived in Hawaii for a couple years back in 1957 when I was a kid. A tropical paradise with no responsibilities, though I seem to recall a tsunami once and the old Gods inciting a volcanic distrubance or two....
