Happy Thanksgiving!!

From canada, with beaver.

we had a dinner on saturday. it was awesome. and very nontraditional.

then we watched the canucks lose.

today i am doing nothing because i finally don't have to make motherfucking tofu. maybe i'll get some beer and watch the canucks beat the panthers.

I am thankful for having a case of GIB pale ale in the fridge.

GIB is top notch. I'm gonna grab some of the local microbrew i think. I have some vodka as well. but i ahve to wake up and make more tofu tomorrow morning.

Is that now? i always thought it was near christmas

well compared to may i guess now i near christmas.

american thanksgiving is in november.

Yeah it's american turkeyday that you're thinking of david R. James.

Essines - what are some of the local microbrews you enjoy?

Vancouver Island Brewery, not so much a microbrew, makes Spyhopper Honey Brown Ale that i fucking love. I gotta get my brain in gear, right now i can only think of the names of the beer and not the brewery. I'll hit the beer store and come back with my faves, maybe post some pics. But VIB has some mean brews.

Yeah please do, I'd love to try some out when I get a chance to visit the island...hopefully this year's winter break...:)

Thanksgiving is a terrible holiday for vegetarians. A holiday centered around eating turkey and turkey-derived substances. :\

I'm sure the Turkeys would agree!

Yeah I had dinner with some family, and drank a few Alexander Keith's IPA (which is not really an IPA, but my mom bought it, so I'm not gonna complain)

And it was nice not to go to school.

Canadian/English dual nationality, and basically permanent resident status in South Korea. lol.

I'll wager you understand nothing more about me now than you did yesterday.

Those two beer were great, specially the skookum. Swans and Phillips both wail! Phillips Blue Buck is a nice beer. And it's $12 pitchers of Swans at Swans Pub on Wednesdays. They have some great shit.

Awesome thanks Essines I'll have a look out for those when I go to a beer store with some decent selection.

those are the two i regularly get. but both brands have quite a wide selection of beers. Perhaps if i continue buying em i'll take some more pictures.

wat is this silly thing
