On a diet - lost 10 lbs thus far. Looking to drop about 30 more by the end of the year.

Good work on the diet so far! I've lost over 30lbs since January. No official diet, just doing the low carb bit cuz it WORKS. Keep up the good work, you'll reach your goal before you know it!
Regards, GF. :mug:
 
I need to get back to low carb and eating less, but more often. And get more exercise. Need to work off about 5-10 lbs.

Probably should replace the tires on the bikes and check out the extended Rail to Trails. They paved a section from our town limits and I wonder how far it's paved.
 
This Sunday morning is dawning a bit cloudy, but warm. The weatherman is calling for some rain today, and we could really use it.

With it being mothers day, it will likely be a day for traveling. I might get a bit of gardening done if I'm lucky and I get after it early.

Breakfast will come first, though. My wife loves pancakes and bacon, so, I'll need to get working on that pretty soon. I have no Idea what will be on the dinner table tonight, other than some asparagus from the garden. It's starting to come on strong and it's my wife's favorite, so..........

I hope everyone has a great mother's day.

:mug:
 
Working this morning, having a cup of Earl Grey tea & running Storm Stories. Later it will be CBS Sunday Morning, they'll be doing a couple of things for Mothers' Day. Happy Mothers' Day to all you moms out there! After work I'll be grillin' & chillin' with a beer in one hand & BBQ tongs in the other. Hope everybody has a great day!
Regards, GF.

:rockin:

Edit: I showed SWMBO your post and her reply is that she made Breast Milk and walked away. I BOUGHT her Doughnuts, Flowers, Ice Cream, and we're going out to dinner...

I like pancakes and bacon tho...
 
Good Sunday morning to all out in HBT land. I awoke to a grey and overcast sky and temps. in the low 60's. The rain gauge is reading 3/4" of rain that fell while I was in dream land and I never heard a thing. Today's forecast calls for sunny and 75*. What more could one ask for?

I stopped at my LHBS and picked up the grains for another batch of my house rye yesterday afternoon, so that is begging me to be brewed. While at the LHBS I met a fellow that is a brewer at on of the local craft breweries and learned that even though he brews all week long for a living, he still has a half barrel brewery at home! I'm jealous!

But first there must be breakfast, and bacon and eggs is sounding pretty good to me right about now. I might even fry up some taters to go along with them! :rockin:

I'd like to give a shout out to Austin for bringing us the :goat: . :rockin:

I hope everyone enjoys whatever this Sunday might bring their way.

:mug:
 
WOW! Forgot it was Sunday!

Testing out my new recirculating BIAB rig today with a 25 min mash of Guinness Foreign Extra Stout 10 gal clone!

Then a member of my brew club will join me in the afternoon for a Pliny the Elder 10 gal clone! If the recirculation worked and OG was hit, I'll give this one a 25 min recirculating spin too. Clone wanted 75 min mash... wtf...

All day beer. All day clone. All day good times. :goat: Goat!

Don't forget to tape Sunday Morning.

2 hours left at work I think I'm going to watch Pink Floyd's The Wall :rockin:

Weight update: Down 2 more lbs this week. Things have slowed down but slow and steady. Cutting back on beer has helped... and when I do slam one back now: :drunk:
 
It was wet & drippy overnight, now the rain has stopped & the clouds are spilling over the mountains like a slow motion waterfall & flowing through the valleys like a slow, lazy river. I'll be starting a bilberry wine after work, along with making breakfast & doing laundry; though I think I might take a little drive & watch more cloud movement before I get productive. Just had a look outside & there are 3 deer noshing on the bushes by the front door. Starbuck's coffee, clouds & deer, now that's a good morning. :)
Hope everybody has a great Sunday!
Regards, GF.
 
Started my day with a mug of coffee, dropped the misses off at the airport for her work trip to San Diego, took the kids for daughter's softball pictures, then went shopping. Not much on the agenda for the day, so looking forward to relaxing and maybe getting a few things done around the house.
 
I'm trying to get motivated to clean up some stuff in the brewery so I can check for FG on my Irish red. Might have to bottle it up? Feelin like a lazy Sunday myself.
 
About to throw a few racks of ribs on the grill in preparation for the family gathering this afternoon. Other than that, I plan on taking it easy.
 
Coffee on a gorgeous morning. Just dropped 16# of pork shoulder on the grill/smoker for the deck party today. Have a turkey breast and other things in the wings for later. Ready for a run to offset the eating and drinking.
 
Gotta run to home Depot shortly and get some stuff for gardening, get a wet vac to deal with sewer issues, get a plumber to come, and hopefully plant a couple rhizomes I picked up yesterday. Might try and get a brew session in too.
 
Had back surgery Thursday. So my Sunday will consist of being drugged up on painkillers and muscle relaxers. Also means I won't be brewing anytime soon. :(
 
Taking the motorcycle up to the Beacon farmers market to try and get my hands on some Plan Bee, then bottling 2.5 gallons of IPA in the afternoon. Seems like it's going to be a beautiful day in the Hudson Valley.
 
Just put the little one down for her nap and finished breakfast. On tap for today yard work, yard work, and more yard work. If there is any energy left, i finish painting the basement.
If i get this all done, tomorrow is a lazy brew day.

Long live the :goat:
 
Going to bed about 11am to pick up two extra shifts over the holiday... there is something about working for holiday pay that I really like... I often think about this when I'm on holiday pay and using the restroom.

Stay safe everyone.
 
Wow, you all have way too much energy or something. I work Sunday mornings and haven't done anything close to some of you on your time off. The good news is Sundays are my Fridays, so my energy level should pick up shortly.
 
I hear the sounds of alarm clocks going off across the world... First thing - coffee... Then HBT.

~~~~~~~~~

This Sunday night will be spent fasting. I have an upper GI diagnostic to do at the hospital Monday morning to see if I have a hiatal hernia... *shrug*

Hope you guys bbq or something!
