Some of ya'll were up awfully late last night--I suspect many of you were drinking some of that beer you were talking about.
I can't stand the taste of beer. I used to drink it some, back in my 20s, but I never did really care for it. I *will* drink a Guiness Stout once in a while, but I prefer my alcohol content to be rum, tequila or whiskey.

It looks like the leaderboard hasn't refreshed yet; I suspect Charlie will find himself in the Top spot this morning. I just couldn't do it last night; went to bed about 10 and actually slept "late" this morning--until very nearly 6:30!

Well, I did also wake up in the middle of the night--3:16 a.m. according to my phone--because my phone was about to blow up from incoming texts, and that worried me because middle-of-the-night calls and text are usually bad news. Well, it WAS bad news, but not of the personal nature--huge storm with 1/2-inch hail headed our way. Thankfully, the hail seemed to lose steam before it got to me--just lots more rain!

I talk about drinking (only on here) a lot more than I actually do it. I was probably in my early 20s the last time I had more than two drinks in one evening. I quit drinking completely when I was pregnant with my first child, and didn't drink, at all, again, until he was 21--not even a glass of wine.

Now, I'll have a drink once in a while, but on average, I bet I don't even have 5 drinks in any given month.

Has anyone made a camera out of a beer can?

OH YEAH!! Guiness is THE way to go with a Shepherd's pie. I must confess to not having had a Cottage pie, though. What's in it?

Some of these folks have more likely made a beer can out of a camera...

Time to go do the 301 Boogie, dancing with idiots.

I'll drop in at lunch time, likely.

Shepherd's pie uses lamb or mutton, Cottage pie used ground beef.
My take: cut up & boil potatoes. brown the meat, then set aside. sautee onion, garlic, diced carrots, and peas. Add the meat to the veggies, add Wooster sauce, Guinness, Simon & Garfunkel herbs (parsley, sage, rosemary & thyme), S&P and simmer for about 10 minutes.

When the potatoes are tender, add milk or cream, a dash of sour cream and cream cheese if you are adventurous, and whip. Don't forget the butter. Place the meat/veggies in a glass baking dish, cover with the whipped potatoes and bake at 400 for about 20 minutes - until the taters are golden brown.

Yum.

The voices in my head told me not to listen to you. They said I'm fine. They also told me to resurrect Buddy Holly so he can become World President and we can terraform Neptune.

I prefer to call myself "Jonathon Winters crazy." You know, hilarious mixed with a slight concern that I may actually go over the edge at any moment and kill everyone in sight.
