Now that that’s all over…
January 8th, 2009With the holidays over looks like it’s all back to the grind. I’d like to thank my family for a great time and point out just how booze-infused my gifts and holiday season were.
Let’s start with the beer gifts.
I got so many beer related gifts for Christmas! It was great! I kept opening more and more beer and bar stuff. Here’s just a few things (I’m sure I’ll miss one or two of them).
- First off I got a home brewing kit from Mrs.Thirstymates. it’s just a beginners kit but I’m really looking forward to brewing some of my own stuff.
- A pilsner Brew kit from The Brew House
- Designing Great Beers by Ray Daniels
- How to Brew by John J. Palmer
- New Brewing Lager Beer by Gregory J. Noonan
- Beers Of The Word by David Kenning
On top of all this I got so many nice things for my bar at home. Including bottles of Crown Royal, Tanqueray, and Sheridan’s Liquor (I can’t seem to find a website for them).
I also received bar paraphernalia like six beautiful lead crystal glasses from my brother and his girlfriend along with some wine stoppers that match our decor beautifully. A silver platter and Scotch bottle hanger from my mother and father and an LCBO Canadian whiskey glass from Santa in my stocking.
All in all a good booze related haul for Christmas!
But my birthday is just around the corner (April’s not that far away is it?) Let’s see if the fam can top this Christmas booty.
