The week nears an end, and it's been a rough one, its mere four days notwithstanding. I end it today with my firm's annual meeting, then a baseball game. The baseball game is a quotidian thing, except for the holiday weekends: T, W, Th, F, T, W, Th, F, S. I also had a band concert last night and have a ballet recital on Saturday. At a time when I need brews the most, I don't have time to use them, though I will have a few at the annual meeting.
Unfortunately, the machine-gun baseball schedule and work pressures leave little time for blogging. To exacerbate the problem, there's little beer or wine news out there. This is all I have today:
From an interview with Barbara Holland, the author of The Joy of Drinking:
Booze, she writes, is "the social glue of the human race." As soon as humans stopped wandering around looking for berries and settled down to raise crops, they started creating wine and beer and, not coincidently, civilization.
I like it.
