    At this point in this particular storm, a dusting on mulch/grassy areas exceeds my expectations....we'll see what the evening brings. Currently 33/29, continued SN, no stickage on paved areas but that's probably coming soon.

    DAMN. What a porch and overview. I'd sit out there all day, and (maybe) sleep out there, too in the summer. Well....maybe with a lot of mosquito repellent surrounding me. Is that your weather station at the background corner by the grill? What a gorgeous setup!
  3. vastateofmind
    Agreed. Plus, I have been sticking to my guns and not bitching about this particular storm...after the snow gods blessed us back on the 3rd.

    Legit SN, 36/28. Have lost about a degree every 30 or so min, for the past 2 hours. #aleet

    -SN, 37/25

    Never heard of Sapwood until I just saw your pic in the other thread. But told my wife we MUST plan a day trip to Ten Eyck....I keep hearing so many good things about that brewery.

    Ahh, the 120...a perennially great choice, as well as the 90 min. I just ran out to get a new bottle of bourbon since my 20-something sons demolished my stash over the holidays while visiting. I think Mrs. V also has a Conundrum and Cooper & Thief reds on chill. We are also tearing into these bad boys for the 3rd week in a row....we are huge Three Notch'd fans, and this one doesn't disappoint. As long as Wegmans keeps carrying this limited edition, we're gonna keep snapping them up.

    So, @CAPE: 1) Are you still considering a mini-chase tonight or tomorrow to your coastal east? 2) If not, what beers are queued up for this evening/the weekend? Always kinda look forward to your weekend picks, as well as those from @Scraff & @Scuddz.

    And just like that...currently -SN! Didn't even have to squint.

    Just spent the past hour running errands between your neck of the woods, over to Rose Hill/Franconia area, and back home to Hayfield/Belvoir area. Despite what radar's selling, I ain't buying....didn't see one flake, but it's encouraging that you and @H2O did. Currently 41/24.

    Twitter has become more "thread-based" in recent years with posters sometimes (but not always) "numbering" their "thread" posts....which helps. On a related note (not necessarily for wx tracking), Snapchat? Only social media platform that actively frustrates the hell outta me. Its UI/UX makes your hair hurt.

    Yep. We've still not wiped the shocked face off of our faces yet... We are finishing up the final season of Lost In Space tonight. I will be very sorry to see that series go.
  13. vastateofmind
    LOL. Did you happen to watch Ozark Season 4.1 these past two weeks? It sounds like you're channeling your inner Ruth Langmore.

    Almost every Friday night in the winter, my wife and I do toasted cheese -- sometimes with swiss/provolone/cheddar slices, occasionally doctored up a bit with a few slices of pepperoni or leftover taco meat -- along with Progresso's Tomato & Basil soup. Great comfort food when it's this cold.

    BSprouts are my favorite veggie. And it's interesting...you mentioned maple syrup, @wxtrix mentioned brown sugar on the roasted sprouts. I'm wondering if that sweet aspect is something that we've been missing on our sprouts recipe. Gonna try the addition of both of these to see what it tastes like.
  16. vastateofmind
    You saute those sprouts or bake them? Once or twice a week, we roast sprouts coated in Wegman's basting oil, with a few shakes of italian seasoning, garlic and some pepper flakes. Perfection.

    Troegs is one of my favorite micros -- Double Blizzard is very good, the Troegenator is my all-time fave (and even boozier AF).
  18. vastateofmind
    All the soft drinks/pops taste like that to me anymore...which is why I only drink one about twice a year now. When I was a kid there was an RC (Royal Crown, I think?) Cola...which I liked the best out of the colas. Also, Trix or someone earlier mentioned Cheerwine...never had that until I moved to VA, and that's still pretty good stuff.
  19. vastateofmind
    Ohh, there's a difference. Throw in the fact that Coke loves to eff around with its formula from time to time, and it's really hard to create/keep a baseline of taste going.
  20. vastateofmind
    OMG....I spend 15 min alone in Weggy's seltzer aisle making the weekly choices.
  21. vastateofmind
    I went through a kiwi phase a few years back...but ate so many I got tired of them, plus, hated cleaning the seeds outta my teeth.

    I used to think same until I tried a brand of cauliflower pizzas from Costco -- wowzers. Those things are awesome.
  24. vastateofmind
    Not a fan of raw....but cooked yes, and love cauliflower rice a ton.
  25. vastateofmind
    Love Del Ray neighborhood....lot of cool homes there. Beautiful homes in Old Town, too, of course....but I can barely take driving/visiting there anymore, let alone the thought of living there full-time. Dealing with parking in Old Town for a simple restaurant visit is a sure way for me to break out into hives and channel the "Anger" character from Pixar's Inside Out movie....
