These babies have been sitting in my garage brewing for the past 3 weeks and I just cracked them open. Very tasty! You still have some time before the holidays to whip up a batch. As you can see I threw in some Jalapenos for good measure. I will try those in a week or so.

Here’s the link to the recipe.

Today I was walking out of a local coffee shop and saw a woman coming towards the entrance. She was about 30 feet from the  door so I had every right to just keep on walking. Instead I decided to wait and hold the door for her as she made her way up the stairs. As she approached she made no eye contact with me. As she walked passed me through the door she didn’t even pause to slide me a quick thank you or a smile. I even followed up on the phantom Thank You with a “your welcome”  but that did not slow her down. She was stuck in her own little world walking with an air of righteousness that made me laugh out loud inside my head while holding back my innate desire to stick my foot out.

The whole scene was disappointing but it is something I am seeing it more and more these days. For someone who is far from perfect but does try to take that extra step where I can, it is becoming more and more frustrating to deal with this fall of gratitude.
