I've been waiting for a snowy day like today to go out and take some pictures for this blog. I'd love some snowy pictures of gorgeous German Village for a future post. Alas, I'm coping with a cold, so walking around in the snow wasn't a wise decision if I am to be a peppy children's librarian tomorrow. I'll have to make do with the snapshot outside my home.
I want this blog to encompass more than just history. This hometown tourist took a break last week from solo walking to joining a couple hundred of comrades for an evening of seasonal cheer. Studio 35 offers a monthly beer tasting coupled with a movie. In October, I enjoyed a tasting of Southern Tier Beer and a viewing of Shaun of The Dead, the best zombie movie ever. Last week, A Christmas Story combined with a sampling of Winter/Christmas Ales set the stage for a perfect evening. I'm a lightweight, so these evenings usually involve an early 8pm hangover. Standouts of the sampling included the Weyerbacher Winter Ale, and the Petrus Winter. Winter Ales are my absolute favorite, so combine that with friends, pizza, cupcakes, and a theater full of people cheering on Ralphie in unison-it can't get much better than that. As the snow blankets the city, be sure to warm up with a cold Winter Ale this holiday season!
Just don't shoot your eye out!
