Dogfish Head Punkin AleChef Dolores and I were having pizza at home. Our beverage selection was the 2024 Dogfish Head Draft Brewery Punkin Ale. This seasonal selection is brown ale with pumpkin. It is good and your guests will enjoy it. Drink responsibly. 7% Alc. by Vol. Click on the link to reach the website for more information.  The pumpkin beer you've known and loved since 1994! Named after the seriously off-centered southern Delaware extravaganza Punkin Chunkin, Punkin Ale is a full-bodied brown ale with smooth hints of pumpkin and brown sugar thanks to our brewers using real pumpkin meat, brown sugar and spices.As the season cools, this is the perfect beer to warm up with. Daylily, Kentlands Photowalk, Gaithersburg, Maryland USA IMG 2231Canon PowerShot G11 CameraPhotograph by Roy ...

A Waffle StoryChef Dolores made some delicious waffles using the Park City Kodiak Cakes Power Cakes Flapjack & Waffle Mix which is one of her favorites. This is an item that we find at Costco.However, the real story is that the waffle iron that she uses was given to us as a wedding gift in June, 1965. I think you will agree that the General Electric Automatic Grill Waffle Baker Maker has been a reliable product. Spiderwort, Kentlands Photowalk, Gaithersburg, Maryland USA IMG 5484Canon PowerShot G11 CameraPhotograph by Roy KelleyRoy and Dolores Kelley Photographs
