Back to Brewing
This weekend, my father came up from Florida to drop off some yard equipment. Yay for having my own lawn mower and trimmer. However, this left us with a Sunday with no real firm plans.
So, it was time to get back to my roots as a homebrewer. You see, I actually learned [...]

The Juicy Secret to Seasoning Meat | Food & Wine.
No one size fits all rules, here, unfortunately. I suppose that’s a reason to cook more…
Hi, I’m a mystery plant
This is in my yard, just beginning to bloom (maybe a third ofthe flowers are open). First I thought rose of some sort, before it bloomed, then I thought blackberries, now I’m wondering if it’s a rosa multiflora like Jenny’s. Help?

Armored Combat at the Tournament of Friends
This weekend saw fit to give me plenty of opportunities to fight a wide range of fighters. We had 18 in armor on the field, so the MOL’s saw fit to break us into two pools of 9 for our first round robin. I was in a pool with Sirs Mark and Daemon. Eight fights [...]
The Liechtenstein School of Swordplay
In running up to the Pas d’Armes du l’Arbre d’Or, Baron Alejandro and I conducted a series of greatsword fights, building a friendly rivalry. I was looking to get some practice in before attempting to authorize, and I’m not sure Alejandro’s motivations, but sometimes things are best left un-pondered. Regardless, we had a great time [...]
