un-bifurcated garments
« on: December 29, 2011, 01:57:33 pm »
I am joining weazletoe's team and will be wearing an un-bifurcated garment on, if not the next, then the brew day after that. That's right, you heard me. NO PANTS!!!!

My sweet and loving and extremely understanding wife got me a utilikilt for xmas. I wait with baited breath for it's arrival!

what did y'all get that you were really hoping for?

I just got a belated surprise gift from my lovely wife, The Oxford Beer Companion.  Pretty sweet.

Meat slicer.

 I have been buying beef and pork in bulk and then vaccum packaging/freezing in smaller portions.
It has turned out to be a great cost saver.

Dude! That is awesome! You're gonna love it! I brew in it, and wear it when flying. Kilts are great for travel. Is it an honest to god Utilikilt? Mines a knock off. Wish I would have saved for a real one, if I only knew how much use I would get out it. Enjoy!

A bit of a belated Christmas present, but I get to meet my grandson for the first time tonight.  He is just over one year old. They are landing at LAX right about now, and will be arriving here at Hilo in just over seven hours!

My folks gave a really burly glass "baster" for taking samples, a 1L flask, and the book Yeast.  The baster is cool, my only concern is pulling hot wort samples with glass. It's made by Comar and the guy at the HBS said it was designed for military medical flushing.  Anyone ever use one?

an honest to god one. just the basic model but they were having an end of year 25% off sale. so score!

My wife and I also have a tentative xmas present to each other of a grain mill but we will see if that money actually is available. Borrowing the neighbors right now. need a bigger drill. the little cordless one does it's best but it just doesn't have the torque.

My wife gave me some wicked good longies.
You know, long underwear.

I consider brewing in longies....wearing no pants. :o

Free balling a kilt? dang, you boyz are tough.
Cheers to that, but yea, don't let me see you get upended.
I love me some bifurcation. :D

Living in a place where the neighbor has a grain mill ain't all bad. :o

On Christmas day I set a trap for the cat that had been hiding in my garage for three weeks. The cat was in the cage by the time I got home. :o

Off to the no-kill shelter for adoption.

Figure the cat had hidden itself behind the washer or dryer. Left the garage door open for hours hoping it would leave. :-\

A big green egg, and a pile of cedar to make a table for it. Cedar is not a pile anymore, IMO! House doesn't smell like varnish anymore either.
