Up coming holiday events:

CRAFTLAND! opens Dec 1


The Festival of Trees opens Dec. 1

Ugh I hate Christmas music!  How are there even enough Christmas songs to play them 24 hours a day?? I guess we'll end up hearing every  rendition of every song sung by Mariah Carey and Celine Dion over and over again...

Ever try the sam adams cranberry something or other.  That was the worst beer I have ever had.  Magichat just came out with Jinx again, I believe it is a seasonal beer, but it is amazing.  You should definately try that out.

cranberry lambic... the worst part is, if you've ever had a real lambic, that's not what that sam adams beer is.  it's just terrible.  it's actually a fruit beer as it has no other characteristics of a lambic.  i'm a big fan of harpoon's winter warmer.  i wonder if trinity has a winter beer.

I've been practicing Christmas music in school (bell choir) since September, so stop complaining!

Look, before we start talking about Christmas, we should be talking about Thanksgiving.  That is next week!

And if we are talking about Thanksgiving, we have to talk about pie.

Pecan?
Pumpkin?
Apple?  With Cheddar or a la mode?

Let's hear it.

Pie is way better than christmas songs.

Pumpkin
Cheesecake

pumpkin pie is the best pie ever, no doubt about it.

[runawayjim]

i don't understand how cheddar goes on apple pie... ice cream only.

after i had a really awesome pecan pie in atlanta, i think that's now my favorite with apple coming a close second.  i also like pumpkin pie.
