I bottled the Happy Monk today. 50 bottles, 8.6% alcohol by volume.

RFID
Jay Peak has moved to an RFID lift ticket system this season. All it takes to show the guts is a little backlight
For aging eyes
Lis gave me a present today: one of those magnifying glass / alligator clip thingys to help me with close-up projects.
Pomegranate
Lis cleaned a pomegranate today.
Whiskey legs
I love the patterns whiskey (or other strong alcoholic beverage) forms on the inside of a glass.
Beer foamy
Foam on a beer glass.
Wet?
I had to replace our indoor/outdoor thermometer; the old one succumbed to the elements. The new one is nice because its remote sensor measures humidity as well as temperature, and is wireless. And it gives its opinion of the current weather.
I’m not sure I’d describe “currently flurrying” as “wet” but I would agree it’s somewhat unpleasant.
Small print
Graphic novels are not designed for 41-year-old eyes. Reading one recently, I ran across a frame with text too small for me to read without assistance. So I used the macro lens to take a picture of it.
Bonus points to anyone who can identify the graphic novel.
Dust
Lis and I have a HEPA filter in the bedroom: both of us have allergies, and it does seem to help. I replaced the filter cartridge yesterday. It’s definitely doing something, as you can see from the dust buildup here on the prefilter.
Chocolate
I do love me some dark chocolate.
