I reconnected with my first college roommate at the neighborhood pub the other day. Feels great to be near old friends, again, and I’m grateful that it feels so good to be in touch after a lot of years.

I’ve had this bottle of World Wide Stout in the fridge for, I think, two years. Today, puttering around in the kitchen together, seemed like a good day to crack it open. It was delicious.

I hear it’s Micro.blog happy hour. Or, if it wasn’t, well it is now. This is Chateau Americana, a Trappist style pale ale from one of my town’s many fine microbreweries, Wanderlust Brewing Co.
