Welcome to the group and blogging!!! I will follow you on Twitter and I plan on eventually adding links to all the members of the NE Beer blogging group to my blog in the future.

Cheers for the friend request :) I've added your RSS feed and have recommended you to a friend who has also just started writing about food - her blog is at http://backseatchef.wordpress.com/

Where I live, it means you have to hang around with old men who smell of damp!

I am not at GABF but NY Craft Beer Week starts on the 24th and is sure to be a blast in its own right. I am going to the Brewer's Choice event. I like the idea of an Oktoberfest in NY as there are thousands of great bars and breweries around here. I work right neart the Original Heartland and love sneaking out for a Pumpkin Ale this time of year.

I'm coming over to DC-area next year so I'm going to be hunting down all the IPAs I can get!

Hey Paula! Nice to meet ya. Checked out your blog and I'm really excited to see more posts from you. I love beer and I love food but haven't really started to pair them properly until recently, which is why I'm looking forward to reading more from you! That slutty chicken sounds great! Whenever I cook a pot of chili, there's beer in it (usually vienna lager or a dark stout), and I always marinate my steaks in beer, but beyond that...well I drink more than I cook, but when I cook I want to cook with beer and learn what pairs best with this and that so keep it up, keep blogging and teach me something :)
