Autumn is by far my favorite season, whether I'm in California, Washingon, Wisconsin, or, as I've recently verified, Portugal. Here are a few ways I've been enjoying the change...
 |
| A Thanksgiving-style heap of food! Pot pie, garlic mashed potatoes, stuffing, brussel sprouts, and salad with dried cranberries and pomegranate, with a homebrewed dark IPA to wash it all down! Yum. |
 |
| Chestnuts, roasted to sweet perfection by street vendors! So good. |
 |
| Ah, the filtered light of autumn... |
 |
| While strolling around Cascais, we happened upon some of the most entertaining lawnmowers that you could hope to find. |
 |
| 'Tis a great time for the smell and taste of roasted barley! Here is my first taste of homebrew in Portugal. |
 |
| I added smoked french oak chips to my first batch. |
 |
| A fun new toy! My first grain grinder. |
