I was supposed to go to the winery

but got stuck talking to the niece of the winery owner (neither one of us like the wine named for her) as she's trying to go to medical school and i'm the chair of the premedical committee. After that I'm like wow my friends don't get off for another 2 hours, my ankle hurts, my leg hurts and you know what I just want to go home so no wine for me.

The ankle hurts because of arthritis. The leg hurts because a cat scratch looks nasty so (spares gory details) cleaned it up.

Hey all I've been interviewed. Check it out here It was fun stuff.

Hmm poor Eliana D. Evans She (i.e. I) needs more twitter friends. I had other friends there but I guess they didn't like me...

As promised more on the microbrews, I tried Magic Hat's Howl, a black lager. It reminded me of Dixie's Voodoo Blackened Lager. I liked it.

Also Adagio's tiger eye tea is almost butterscotch like. I liked it a lot and they gave me a sample of "cream" tea. It's mild and slightly sweet. Very nice.

I have the Tiger tea but haven't tried the Tiger eye. I just ordered more Loki and I'm trying a Mycroft blend (http://www.adagio.com/signature_blend/blend.html?blend=19185). So it might be a couple weeks before I get something more.

Of course, I just looked at the website now and saw that someone did some Baccano! blends.

yes they did but none of them appeal to me. they also changed the pricing on blends. the 10$ price now buys one ounce less and they have a larger size.

I bought the Sherlock and reichenbeck falls from your mycroft series. They're okay but probably not what I want to buy again

which loki? there seems to be many. I didn't like the ingredientes in cara's (i don't like rooibos)

Cara's blend is the one I have.

Though I did see that there are some others that at Thor/Loki themed.
