sausages and beer. and other good things.



Hello out there. I am not really going to tell you why I think sausages and beer are good, because I think they speak for themselves.


I will tell you about my quest for the perfect dog, however. I know that some people would argue with me that a sausage is not a hot dog, and that a hot dog is far from a sausage, and I take your point. I understand... But really, if you eat it on a hot dog bun, I want to compare it. I want to find the tastiest bestest one. There are some out there that are in the running... That classic but natural dog from Dogma in Miami is pretty awesome. DO NOT skip the garlic fries. That Dog-man-du guy in Rosemary Beach Florida is great, but it could have something to do with the hunger you feel after a long day at the beach. And, I know purists who want a hot dog and not a sausage might not agree, but Wurstkuche in Los Angeles kind of knocked my socks off. I will let you know when I find the winner... but for now, I just grilled sausages and drank beer in my own back yard. Aren't you glad spring is here?

One thing I really discovered this month that you MUST try is the shandy. I found a recipe and made mine with the yummiest ingredients around and added some mint. Delicious!


- Hoegaarden Beer
- Reed's Extra Ginger Beer
- Lemon wheel
- Mint leaves (do not crush)
- Serve to taste over ice
