My new disease: Post-traumatic Embitterment Disorder

Check it out: Post-traumatic Embitterment Disorder

Going to work everyday is traumatic, and this new disease explains my bitterness about that. Maybe I can get some extended leave to recover.

Sydney Hasselhop

In a previous I introduced Denise Hopper and Daniel Hasselhop. Well, Daniel Hasselhop was all alone in the backyard and my delightful neighbor got me a Cascade Hop vine at the Tilth Edible plant sale so now Daniel Hasselhop has a new best friend, Sydney Hasselhop. As a hop vine originally bred for the Northwest she is outgrowing Daniel Hasselhop and Denise Hopper by a wide margin.

Welcome, Sydney Hasselhop!

Cascade hops are probably the most popular hop in American brewing. They have a flowery citrus aroma and flavor. Cascades are a hybrid between an English hop, called Fuggle, and a Russian hop called Serebrianke.

BTW: The blog spell checker wants to replace 'Hasselhop' with 'Horsewhip'.
