3/21/13 Beer tasting on a “school night”

3/21/13

Michael usually plays shuffleboard on Thursday nights when he
makes it home from NY in a timely fashion.

Tonight shuffleboard was on hiatus so

Michael decided he would have everyone over for an impromptu beer tasting.

We haven’t had one in a while.

Present Weasel & Chester got for my gym instructor’s new puppy Chloe. Our dogs are quite thoughtful!

I whipped up a batch of these – sweet potato chips. They were originally going to be dog treats but everyone at the party seemed to like them – so the dogs got shut out. Basically they are dehydrated sweet potatoes lightly seasoned with my secret salt recipe.https://whatwouldhelendo.com/2011/09/18/ted-turner-secret-salt-recipe/

I had corned beef leftover from last week’s cooking adventure so I thought I’d put it to use.

I concocted these tasty morsels of goodness. Corned Beef Quesadillas.Basically I used Russian Dressing, Sauerkraut, Corned Beef & Swiss Cheese. Grilled them up & everyone ate them!

New beer on the Market – Very Good. Grab some while you can!!

Suzy, Deb & MarySuzy was the only “non-biker” present. We are working on changing that.

We LIKED the Terrapin Moo-Hoo

This also is a new one on the market – Get some today – it is worthy!

MARY — FAILED POUR!!! big head……

The Girls — Joanne was drinking my tasty Sangria. Me, Deb, Suzy & Mary.Absent from Photo: Joyce was in the living room breaking up a dog fight & Tanya was a late comer.

We broke out our last ENJOY BY 12.21.12Rebels – drinking beer past it’s expiration date. It was still verrrrry good!

Towards the end of the night we broke out this Imperial Porter – LIKED!!!!! Would recommend.

The guys – all cyclists. AT least we all have that in common – we like to bike & taste Beer!Tom, Greg, Michael, Bill, Dean & Michael W.
