The lovely and talented Carolyn of the delightful Etsy shop "Sweet Carolyn's" came down to visit us last month and so we did our best to show her a good time. Easiest way to do that is to have brunch at Porter's Pub. Feel free to check out the menu because it is out of this world. I'm not even a breakfast person but I can't say no to a lazy Sunday at Porter's drinking fine beers and eating delicious food.
Beer of note from this particular trip: Dogfish Head Black and Red. This beer is not for the faint of heart. Of course I had to begin with it. It's dark and fruity and "dry-minted" whatever that means. Add all of that together and you get a very heady, exciting beer. I had a few others over the course of our time there as did John and Carolyn. I enjoyed the Black and Red so much Carolyn partook of one as well. While we were there our conversation meandered as our conversations tend to do.
Carolyn shrieked the words "Punch fork!" at me several times, so of course, I am now hooked. Just what I need another social network site to obsess over. If you haven't already been there, devote a couple hours of your life to visiting this site. We also determined we have quite a few trips to make together this summer. We will be hitting Colonial Williamsburg and Bourbon St as well as going on as many brewery tours as humanly possible. Lastly, we decided Carolyn and Mary Pat need to come to the Jazz Fest this year. All in all, 2012 will definitely be a busy year!
