Does This Picture Make My Rear-End Look Fat?

Poor T-Hoe. I set out to take a flattering picture. Really. I wanted to send it to my sister the ex-mayor's wife, to show her HOW CLEAN my car is today. Accidentally. Due to the downpour. I eased along the mile of gravel road slowly so as not to splash through puddles.

However...now that I bring up that picture in a larger format...it's not all that flattering to T-Hoe!


I would have moved back farther, or taken a shot from the side, but the yard is a quagmire, and I did not want to subject my mesh New Balance to such squishiness. However...I had the bright idea to take one from the other side, where I had the corner of the concrete carport to stand on.


Well. All I can say about that is: "T-Hoe, the '08 Tahoe, has a very shiny nose."

Get a good gander at this, people. T-Hoe doesn't stay clean for long.

Sung to the tune of Rudolph the red-Nosed Reindeer?

He is a lovely looking car :)

This doesn't have anything to do with your post today - but I couldn't wait to let you read it:

The Collective Brewing project has teamed up with Lone Star Taps and Caps in Fort Worth, Texas to turn Easter's most polarizing treat—Marshmallow Peeps—into a craft beer.

They plan to tap the concoction Friday, March 30 at 6 p.m. at the Taproom in Fort Worth, and they're calling the collaboration "Peep this Collab."

On the website, the taste is described as tart and lemon-y and the look is described as a glitter bomb with fabulous sparkle.

However, Ryan Deyo, Collective Brewing's head brewer and co-founder said drinkers could expect a "lightly tart" and marshmallow-y" taste from the beer on guidelive.

Regardless of the flavor, Deyo said they mashed 30 boxes of peeps into a beer brewed with sour ale, vanilla and butterfly pea flowers (yes, actual flowers).

If that doesn't sound delicious already, the beer will have purple tint thanks to the pea flowers and they will have edible glitter to up the sparkle content.

This whole idea is a part of Deyo's passion to make beer for more fun.

River,
Yes. Rudolph. You have a good ear for my typing. I made T-Hoe look so good that I might as well look for a part-time job taking phone pictures for auto dealers' websites!

Nancy,
I don't know about the sparkle, since I don't make a habit of eating glitter...but if I was still a drinker, I would love to try the PEEP brew! It couldn't taste any worse than regular beer, right?

PEEPS are aptly described as "polarizing." It seems that people either love them, or detest them. I'm a lover, not a detester.
