Lushes: Day One of Brewmasters International Beer Festival


Since SKing and LMac spent the weekend relaxing away in Galveston, TX , I thought one of my first catch up (read: I have 10 months of happenings to fill you in on) posts should be about SKing & I's trip to the First Annual Brewmasters International Beer Festival in Galveston back in September.

For some added company, we had Nate and Ninja meet us at Moody Gardens for the event. Once the boys arrived, we walked through the event doors and were given a sampling mug and a punch card.

The room was filled wall to wall with sampling booths - arranged by brewing company. Each brewing company brought a few of their favorite beers for us to sample, which was a little overwhelming at first since there were literally HUNDREDS of beers. Eventually, we just started asking the brewery representatives to serve us up a sample of their favorite.

The entire day was a blur - both in the sense that it flew by and we drank quite a bit. hahah

That being said, I'll leave you guys with photos from the day....














Post Brewmasters, we had dinner at Gaidos - yeah I'm really not sure how it's pronounced - where I somehow lost a contact in the sink.

Since I wear circle lenses it was a total "Hello Hot Mess" moment...






Notice my contact-less wonky eye. *Le Sigh*


Anyhooooo - Tune in tomorrow for Day 2 of Brewmasters International Beer Festival

I'm So Vain...

Also find this post under:
"Photoshop Can Only Do So Much"


Ninja & I photoshopped into submission.
Seriously... who stole my neck?

{receive FB notice that SKing has finallllly posted up some Houston pho-toes!}
...
{realize that I'm a hot stinkin' mess in half of le pho-toes!}




((via text))

Me: OMG! Photoshop sil vous plait!

SKing: Aww! I'm at work and we don't have photoshop. I thought you looked cute.

Me: I joke. I kid. But I need to work on my poses for Boca!

SKing: We both do, although we have come a long way since NOLA

Me: Touche!




Let's all raise a lil' glass of vani-tea (Oy Vey! I litearlly cracked myself up wth that one...) and toast to an onward progression of photo fabulosity and bow our heads and ask for less wheres-my-neck-and-who-is-that-sweaty-gay-man-awkwardness in the Boca photos.

At Least She's Pretty...

...Because SKing can't flipcam to save her life.

Her two attempts from Saturday night at Sherlocks as follows:






Yeahhh.

Your in-blog sickness bag is located directly below your keyboard tray.




Note to Self:
