It’s an extra challenging time to be a parent, regardless of the kid’s age. Explaining all the realities and restrictions of the world today, while making doubly sure we’re instilling values early that emphasize equality, it’s

BLACK LIVES MATTER #BlackOutTuesday

A buddy gave me the chance to try yet another brewery's take on the Sour IPA which I've (mostly) enjoyed exploring. During their Pastrytown festival, @otherhalfnyc did some collabs including this pair with @homagebrewing. It has a whole host of fruit
