taste the (double) rainbow (cake)

I was not present for this:

but I wish I had been. Between the previously discussed cherpumple and the above bit of epicness, Viv is rapidly proving herself to be the only candidate for the title of Mistress of Epic Baked Delights after the Overlords complete their plans for world domination.

Head over to Vivid Musings in order to check out the backstory behind how this splendid, tasty colorgasm was conceived and the subsequent recipe, result, and reception, with more glorious pictures.

Someday, I too may eat this. I may immediately shapeshift into a My Little Pony, but it would be totally worth it.

only 3 short months until American Craft Beer Week

American Craft Beer Week for 2011 isn't until May, but that doesn't mean we can't drool in anticipation of the events ahead. This well produced (and a tad inspirational) video touches on the importance of craft brewing in philosophy, fun, and American life.



Bring it on, May. I'm thirsty.

a couple of quick notes

• I'll be attending Farpoint this weekend, notable here for the fact that the bar tends to have crazy experimentation with sci-fi inspired beverages. I may have to throw back one or five, and report back.
• Breezy Willow Farm is getting set to start up it's spring CSA season, which I'll be participating in again. Ignoring the fact that my reporting here dropped off the map - I'll get a post-mortem up shortly - it was a very positive experience for us, and something we'll be partaking of on a regular basis.
