Perils of Homebrewing

I'm a homebrewer. Not just any homebrew, either. I brew meads. For those of you who aren't familiar with meads, they're a honey wine. Think wine, but use honey instead of grapes. Because of the different chemistry, it takes a good 12-18 months to brew a batch of mead, and even then, they only get better with age. A good 10-year old homebrewed mead is fantastic! I've made blackberry, blueberry, pinapple, vanilla meads and even ...

Today's quote

This one holds some signifigance for me as the naysayers will be out in force at the birthday party I'm on my way to:

From the wall of the Redbud Cafe, somewhere in Colorado, I think:

Anyone see Over the Hedge?

I took my daughter to the drive-in last night to see this and it hit home regarding food.

Even though it's from an animal's point of view, in the beginning they talked about how humans just keep eating and eating and how food has become so important in their lives.

I really hope that I will come out of this with an understanding that food is fuel and not a pleasure activity.

Tell me I didn't mess up again!~

OOOOH,

Here I am thinking too much again. OK here we go. I had a taco salad for me L&G (just meat, tomatoes, lettuce and a little taco sauce). But then I thought I would get inventive and spruce it up some by using a pack of my soy crisps on it for some extra crunchiness. It wasn't bad, but I will not waste my soy crisps on it again. They are better alone.

Anyway, ...

Ceviche???

Do you think this works for L&G???
Ceviche
White Fish (usually Halibut)
Lime Juice ( for cooking, you do not drink it, just a little with the fish)
Onion
Cilantro
Red Peppers

The fish is cooked in the lime, and cut everything else and combine
Is very good!!!!
