Pewfay Porter

It was brew day at my buddies house Saturday.  In honer of another friend of ours from the days of Everquest who is affectionately nicknamed Poopface we decided to brew a porter and call it the Pewfay Porter.

Boiling away

My ugly mug stirring the pot and I'm sporting my EQ shaman shirt!

Must get every drop

Chillin time and Poopface feet!

Into the carboy

Initial sampling was meet with approval by Poopface himself so we shall see how it turns out.

Wine Update 1

Well I transferred the wine from the bucket to the carboy over the weekend, forgot to take pictures of the process but took a couple post.

Bubblin away.

Looks like apple cider at this point.

Did get an impromptu taste wile siphoning. Didn't taste to bad, still pretty sweet with a hint of alcohol.  Once secondary fermentation is done I'll rack it, let it settle and rack again to clear it up.

Homemade Wine

So with an over abundance of grapes from the 3 vines at home I decided to try making some wine.

Two hours later.

Now the waiting.

Decided to go old school and not add any additional sugar or yeast, what was on the grapes is all she gets.  Should be interesting how it turns out, if it turns out.  Updates to follow.

My favorite anime of the year

 

I just got done re-watching Watamote and wholly shit it just gets funnier every time.  For those of you that haven't seen it, its a show about a very socially awkward high-school girl and the lengths she goes to to be popular.  I think what makes it so good is that even though it is taken to the extreme in the show everyone can relate at least to an extent that feeling of trying to fit in.  Anyway for you that might have missed it I recommend it highly.  On a side note I wanted to give a shout out to my favorite anime vender, Roberts Anime Corner Store.  They have hands down the best customer service out there.  Questions, comments, concerns they are always quick to respond to emails.  The weekly newsletter that Roberts puts out is great as well, keeps you up to date with what is going on with releases and industry news.  So if your looking for anime, manga or other goodies you should definitely check them out.

County Fair

Another fair and frontier days over and done with.  Much fried foods were consumed, the scale reflects it today.  Back on the wagon for me.  In other news the photos I entered this year were winners!  Took a first place and a reserve class champion.

Here is a link to my 500px site, I dont update it too often but I try to put my better shots up.

Breakfast in Walla Walla

This is why Bacon and Eggs has the best breakfasts in Walla Walla.  Home made hashbrowns, toasted sour dough, caramelized onions, cheese spread, roasted Spanish peppers, shaved ham topped with eggs.  Simply fantastic.  These ladies know how to cook!
