This is awesome:

I am at the Virginia Wine Festival with the awesomest girl ever. We have had lots of vino and now we are taking a class about pairing food with wine. Yay.

Cheese, Bread, and chocolate are delicious with wine.

So we have some tea called Jasmine Dragon Pheonix Pearls.  When brewed it undergoes a stunning transformation, unravelling from a tiny pearl to a some kinda plant monster.

My two favorite things, are now my one favorite thing.

From The Boston Herald:

He fried a batch of Niman Ranch thick-cut applewood-smoked bacon, added the crispy bacon to a large infuser jar with Absolut vodka, then let it sit for four weeks. After the liquor was smoky, he filtered out the bacon pieces with cheesecloth, chilled the vodka to congeal the bacon fat, then removed it via coffee filter.

The preferred wine of Black Mesa scientists. Maybe next time they will think twice about starting portal storms.
