This past weekend Shady Grove Marketplace celebrated their 2 year anniversary! They had samples from Sabrosa Foods and Artisan’s Bakery & Cafe on hand for visitors. New Belgium Virginia and The Ten Top were there too with delicious sandwiches and beer, compliments of the house. Make it a point to visit the market if you’re in the area.

Cheap & Cheery - Dec 2012
Cheap and Cheery this past weekend.
Uno Chicago Grill
We spent a few hours at the local Uno Chicago Grill for a group birthday party my wife’s co-workers were having. Had a good time and the Happy Hour menu was good. The Steak on a Stick was cooked perfectly. Top to bottom: Samuel Adams Octoberfest, Pomegranate Margarita, Steak on a Stick, Shrimp and Crab Fun-Doo, Wildberry Lemonade, Mint Mojito, and Burger Sliders.
Etienne Dupont cider we bought after a tasting—reminded me of the farm fields in Germany. The yeast is captured from the air in the areas surrounding the brewery.
Green House Hefeweizen @ The Yardhouse. Virginia Beach, VA.
Trying my hand at beer making. Shelby gave me brown ale and IPA kits for Christmas. I’ll let you know how they turn out in a month!
