Homeland And All Things Maher

I can't remember if this is the thread where we were posting Beer related stuff but Maher=Beer, Maher=Lobster, so OK. What a weird summer that I've spent eating hot bone broth on hot days for health purposes and drinking Russian Imperial Stouts for mental health purposes. Gotta say, which I think I said before, I absolutely love the Northcoast Brewing Russian Imperial Stout: Old Rasputin. This is like my perfect beer.

Wine is a completely different story though might as well grow grapes in my backyard. Had very solid deconstructed made to go lobster rolls from the grocery store across from my office Friday. 8.5 claw rating [attachment=1552]F1F96FA8-0F42-40DB-81B4-B46C235DE57A.jpeg[/attachment] [attachment=1553]B6D126FE-6C7E-4F28-AD0C-0138F33873F4.jpeg[/attachment]
 
[quote="Paul Massell" post=395008][quote="TX Redman" post=392969]Haven't seen it. Watched "Warrior Nun" on Netflix. Started out promising but got a bit convoluted at the end... There will have to be a Season 2 to tie up the loose ends.[/quote]

I watched this as well. Figuring it would be the typical Davinci Code type fake Catholic stuff and it pretty much is. A few easter eggs like her love interest being "JC" I'll give it a "meh"[/quote]

When I saw the title "Warrior Nun", I had nightmares of elementary school and the nuns who reveled in doling out punishment. It was both physical and psychological terror. Didn't need a horror show during Covid, so passed on this show.

That imperial stout looks absolutely delicious. I just googled it and as luck would have it, a craft beer place literally two miles from my house carries it. I'll have to try one or two before the summer ends. As I've gotten older I've learned that I inherited my Dad's predisposition to occasional attacks of gout, which is brought on by three of my favorite things in the world: beer, especially dark beers, red meat and some shellfish. Because of that I typically stick to pale ales which don't seem to be a problem, but that Russian Stout looks too good to pass up. Luckily lobster rolls have never triggered an attack lol.
 
Forgot to post this one few weeks ago but new place in Northport called salted. Lobster rolls were real good. Bread a little dry though. Got it for takeout as we aren’t ready to start eating inside anyplace but had nice interior [attachment=1554]37F63D57-B56C-4BD5-A5D6-4A60A09AB34F.jpeg[/attachment]

Called that place the other day at 2:30 pm and they were out of lobster. They said after the Newsday article business has been heavy but a lobster roll place out of lobster by 2;30 on a weekday? Tried Kerber Farms in Huntington instead and it was pretty good and because we spent more than $100 they included a gift of a boxed set of pancake mix and syrup a gift value of $16.

[quote="bamafan" post=395047]What do you think of Kerbers and as compared to Salted?[/quote] I like salted more but oh man that Kerberos egg sandwich on their homemade cheddar biscuit for breakfast is awesome
 
Has anyone been up to Lake George that could recommend a few food places? Taking the kids up there and looking for some good take out spots. Thanks in advance.

I'm a few episodes behind, but I've been watching Perry mason on HBO with some friends, and I'm enjoying it.

Also watched Tom Hanks' Greyhound. Liked it, though my nerves were shot by the end. Only a few movies have done that to me, so I guess it did its job.

I have read the novel that Greyhound was based upon, The Good Shepherd, and agree that it was quite thrilling and a great character study. I was glad to see that Tom Hanks brought this story to the "screen". It was written by C.S. Forester who was a prolific writer of novels and screenplays (The African Queen). I started read his works when young in his series on Horatio Hornblower, which I still reread every 5 years.

Richmond is a lovely little town along the Thames. We are moving further west and will be directly north of Richmond about 10-15 min mins away.
