Weaver St Madness!
Feb. 14th, 2009 02:47 pmSo, I am enjoying the God-Emperor of Beers: Duck-Rabbit Milk Stout with chocolate truffles for lunch. I really ought to eat something a little more lunch like, but right now its hitting the spot.
In order to acquire beer, among other things, I went to the Weaver St. Market. While I was there I was witness to a marriage proposal. In the wine section. He bent down on one knee and proposed in front of two of their friends. I was a little surprised, myself. And so were the folks working the cheese counter. I mean, maybe it was a joke? If so, that's kind of a mean joke. I don't think so though. If it wasn't a joke, maybe it should have been? Lame place for a proposal, I'd insist on a do-over if I was her.
Oh, and the hubby said I should talk about cheese in an entry, specifically the cheese that is now on sale at the Weaver. It is produced in NC, and it is a caraway seeded cheddar. It melts well, and I think it tastes great- makes a fantastic sandwich cheese. I also love the same dairies "daisy hoop cheese" which is a mild cheddar, especially great for grilled cheese. Anyway, for them that can get it let it be known that there is locally (relatively) produced good cheese on sale at the Weaver.
We are going to be eating lasagna, eating Affenois brie and baguette, and then hitting the Steam Punk night at the Mansion (5 buck cover - with DJ Mouse spinning) for V-Day. I'm not that into that scene, but I like DJ Mouse's spin, the Mansion is a nice bar and its a good excuse to dress up.
