Friday Shootout - Outdoor Food

Outdoor Happy Hour at one of Cleveland's treasures - The Great Lakes Brewing Company. We made it up there for Christmas in July to sample the Year's First public Christmas Ale on tap. It's dark, delicious and in this season 8% alcohol by content - or so that's what we were told anyways. Needless to say by the middle of my third I was feeling pretty "good". Enjoy a night of eating outdoors with me in Cleveland.

I love local brews! We have a couple of good little breweries around where I live...their browns and ambers are always my favorite.

That is cinnamon in the beer? I have never heard of that....what is the story behind that? Is there honey dripping off of the knife? Do tell!

It is honey and cinnamon in the beer. The beer is tasty delicious with christmassy undertones....and the honey and cinnamon fit right in.

I had never tried it before that night, but if you ever get the pleasure of drinking a christmas ale...don't forget to ask for the tasty toppers.

Friday Shootouts - Power (Zest for Life)

I took power to mean "zest for life". And this is where I get mine. Hanging out with people that know what it means to be alive and have fun. Drinking tea, receiving inspirational quotes, and photography. Reading as much as I possibly can. And good old sunshine when we are blessed enough to see it!

I got it yesterday and in general I think it's much more comfortable than sitting on a chair. I don't really feel like I'm working my core or anything sitting on it...but I do I have it here if I all of a sudden get motivated to start doing crunches. We'll see about that.

I'm regretting the decision. I needed to do that for myself and I let myself get shut down.
