These pics show my parents, Don and Barbara Malcolm, playing Wii bowling like it's going out of style. I almost had to check their luggage to make sure they weren't making off with our Wii!
We also have the final photo from the 1st annual Big Sky Brewing Company Face Off. This is my facial hair after one month of growing as I groomed it for the competition. I'm proud to say that looking through everyone's photos was like a yearbook from a skid row gentlemen's hotel.
They're tough to see, but I had mutton chops down to my jawline on both sides. And I thought the narrow moustache really added to the creepiness. (Don't worry, Mom. I shaved it off the next morning.) The photos got posted in the tap room for the public to vote on. The results haven't been posted, but the prize money is around $150 and the loser gets his entry fee back. I'll let everyone know if win the grand or the booby prize.
Finally, here is this entry's installment of Happy Eating. At the last farmer's market of the season last weekend, I made a great find and picked up some absolutely gorgeous lobster mushrooms and some Jerusalem artichokes. Here are some pre-cleaning photos of the mushrooms. They're 1/4 pound apiece--the mushrooms, not the photos.
For dinner, we stuffed a chicken with lemon, onion, and garlic and then layered bacon on the top. We roasted it and added the mushrooms and Jerusalsem artichokes to the roasting dish about halfway through the cooking so they'd cook in the chicken juices and bacon fat. We also baked some potatoes and accompanied it with a lovely Scapegoat Pale Ale brewed by yours truly.
I think that dessert is worth mentioning, too, even if we didn't make it. We enjoyed some fantastic Haagen Dazs Toasted Coconut Sesame Brittle ice cream.
Hope everyone is well,
David and Abby

Excellent facial hair! I meant to aks yesterday how that went, and I forgot. I would have kept it, though! That's facial hair to be proud of.
Oh, I don't know, I kind of like your beard. I hope you win. It was tempting to try and abscond with your Wii but we're too nice--and our suitcase was too full. ;-) Yummy looking chicken. Huge mushrooms. I don't think I'd be brave enough to buy them.
