    Beers Abroad

    by Holly • March 18, 2011 • Meat/Poultry, restaurant review • 0 Comments

    This morning I woke up to faint moans and a whisper of “I think I need some advil and some grease.” Last night we had a spectacular fire in our backyard thanks to my mancrow’s (MC) efforts of “getting all hippy and shit” by cleaning up our backyard and building an a-class fire-pit.
