Westmalle Trappist Ale Triple
3 years ago
“Westmalle is the orginator of the widely imitated triple style. The abbeys full name is Our Lady of the Sacred Heart. Founded in 1794 it began making beer in the early 19th century. Beer production became commercial in 1920.”
* Made by Belgium Monks, Westmalle is a favorite of my husbands. But for me – No thanks. It had an aftertaste I disliked.
Childless
3 years ago
Being 32, married and childless can make this difficult at times. many clubs and group activities, at my age tend to fall under the “family fun” catagory, singles or child haters.
Yes – believe it or not I have found a child free group. However, they tend to want people who are childless and not thinking of having any (aka – not child friendly).
I do not dislike children. I was a teacher and a child care provider. We have just decided that at this time we don’t want to start a family.
Friends with children tend to assume that childless couples don’t want to do family oriented activities. I have made it clear – I don’t mind it at all.
It obviously means working out tight schedules for parents though.
Either way – I’m pressing on. :)
