Long time…no post

So, what’s it been?  Over 2 years?! 🤪🤣

Ronald and I visited a brewery Sunday evening, and we ran into a couple and had some great discussion.  Turns out they love beer (hence at a brewery), are home brewers and are about to transition into full time RVers.  They shared their web address with me, and it got me thinking about blogging again.  So, here I am.  Hopefully…more consistently… 🙄🤞🏻

I find that I often think about writing posts…but then I just do things and forget to “document” it.  Lately, life has mostly consisted of a daily obsession with my Nespresso machine.  I’ve been trying to get to the gym more regularly 🏋🏻‍♂️.  I’m still taking regular agility classes with my pups.  We have an actual agility trial coming up next weekend.  I’m terrible when it comes to entering trials…I guess I’m just not that interested in pursuing the competitive aspect.

Of course, I’m still brewing.  I have a little experiment going at the moment…a small batch oatmeal stout with some rum soaked raisins, vanilla beans, and cinnamon sticks in the secondary.

Last holiday season,  Ronald and I made a 5 gallon batch of oatmeal cookie stout…and it was just toooooo much beer.  This time, I decided to just make an oatmeal stout in my PicoBrew and tweak how the additions went.  I’ll have to update how that turns out.

Love my Joule

Also, I’ve always got some kind of cooking things going on.  Lately, I’m into meals that offer the most “bang for your buck”.  For me, that means the best tastes for the least effort 😬.  This morning, I threw some chicken breast in to sous vide.  I have two with teriyaki sauce and one plain.  (OMG ❤️ Soy Vay Veri Veri Teriyaki…)  This will give me some easy access protein options later.  I’ve been on a Monday red beans and rice kick too.  I have a pretty great, it’s so easy it’s ridiculous red beans InstantPot recipe.  I’ll have to post it separately.  I made that last night, and there are delicious leftovers in the fridge.

Ok, that’s it for now.  I gotta get ready for the gym.  Back soon (hopefully…hahahahah).
