A serendipitous journey unfolded on this balmy summer day, leading me to an extraordinary haven where two passions intertwined: the love for craft beer and the delight in farm-fresh produce. With excitement brimming like the frothy head of a pint, I embarked on a pilgrimage to the artisanal brewery, an enigmatic venue where the echoes of tradition and innovation danced in harmonious rhythm.

The brewery, a cathedral of creativity, housed within its walls not only barrels of golden nectar but also a treasure trove of vibrant vegetables that graced the tables of connoisseurs and culinary enthusiasts alike. This modern-day alehouse, a portal to gustatory wonders, offered an unforgettable experience where the senses were bound to be enlivened.

As I approached the brewery’s entrance, the aroma of freshly brewed beer mingled with the fragrant bouquet of ripe produce, creating an intoxicating ambience. The fields surrounding the brewery were an unexpected sight, a testament to the brewery’s commitment to sustainability and supporting local agriculture. Lush rows of eggplant, tomatoes, rhubarb, honeydew melon, nectarines, basil, pickling cucumbers, and peppers flourished alongside the barley and hops, a living testament to the synergy between farm and brewery.

Greeted by the brewers, their passion for their craft was evident in every word they spoke. With a warm smile, they presented us with woven baskets filled with nature’s finest offerings – an eclectic fusion of farm-fresh vegetables amidst the backdrop of a brewery’s creative prowess. The sight was as bewitching as an artist’s canvas and as seductive as a poet’s verse.

Within those rustic baskets, a mosaic of colors and textures beckoned, evoking a tantalizing symphony of flavors. The eggplants, reminiscent of dark aubergine hues, whispered tales of culinary alchemy and exotic brews. The tomatoes, like ruby gems, were a homage to summer’s radiance, while the rhubarb enticed with its tangy allure.

The honeydew melons, their flesh like a sweet symphony, offered a refreshing interlude amidst the rich malty notes of beer. Nectarines, with their velvety skin, sang an aria of luscious indulgence, while basil infused the air with its aromatic overture.

Amongst these prodigious offerings, pickling cucumbers and peppers stood as guardians of tradition, a culinary marriage of preserved flavors and artful brews, enhancing the dining experience like an allegro crescendo.

As I carried the baskets of abundance back home, I marveled at the symbiosis between the brewery and the farm. This sacred communion breathed life into both crafts, a reminder that creativity and sustenance could be inseparably entwined. I felt a deep sense of appreciation for the artisans who labor to create a tapestry of flavors, uniting the essence of the earth with the spirit of human ingenuity.

In this journal entry, I attempt to immortalize the wonder of this pilgrimage to the brewery, where the heart finds joy in the union of beer and bounty. It is in these moments of extraordinary synergy that life reveals its most poetic splendor, and the art of living intertwines with the art of brewing to form a symphony of fulfillment and appreciation for all the bounties bestowed upon us.

Today we visited Floyd, a small town in southwestern Virginia that is known for its natural beauty, arts and crafts, and music scene. We had a lot of fun exploring the town and enjoying its local flavor.

We started our day by going to the Floyd Farmers Market, where we bought some homemade pastries and some drinking vinegar from the friendly vendors. We also enjoyed listening to some live music by a local band that played bluegrass and folk tunes. The market is a great place to experience the culture and community of Floyd.

Next, we went to the Floyd Country Store, which is a historic landmark that sells old-fashioned candy, ice cream, books, and music. The store also hosts the Friday Night Jamboree, which is a popular event for old-time string band and bluegrass music. People of all ages come to dance, sing, and have fun.

I can’t wait to come back and explore more of its attractions sometime soon.

Mrs makes best meatloaf

Last night’s supper made with mostly our farm share from @leap4localfood – corn off the cob Mexican street style, and vegetarian meatloaf, made with salsa from the tomatoes, with some of the other veggies mixed in too, for good measure!

Super extra delicious.

I was wondering where he was.

Hey guys, remember me?

Hello again.

Doing more straightening in the garage and on the Salon (red room? Game room?) And I stumbled upon this little guy. Probably one of my favorite mixed onell builds, with a side of a vest taken from Playmobil Marty Mcfly (I think?)

I like the idea of this droid using a thigh piece as his head, and I stole the idea for “fist as pelvis piece” from @little.bot , I think. The powder blue reminds me of my first car, the ol’ Grand Torino 4 door, hardtop. (Not a 2 door Red like on starsky and hutch)

Good to see this little guy back out and about. All I have to do now is continue to unpack items, and no doubly Sisto and Harold will appear soon enough.
