It is also a day of reflection, two area firefighters gave their lives in the line of duty this weekend and two others are in the local burn unit (which is where they send everyone in a 250 mile radius with serious burns). They are in serious but stable condition, an upgrade from their previous critical condition. The local charity I am involved with is providing meals for the families and firefighters visiting the hospital. I am grateful for these brave men and sorry for the losses to their families.

Hanssens Artisanaal Experimental Cassis  (lambic brwed with black currents) with Chorizo sausage and outstanding pan warmed sauerkraut and edamame salad.   It's only a shame i am alone, just waiting for UPS to deliver more wine.

I just purchased a bottle of said Tripel after last Saturday's Belgian tasting. Nice pick.

I'd have been more impressed if you said "for breakfast".
