June 21

I knew a day would come when I would be forced to figure out yet another way to creatively interpret my self-imposed Snapshot Gratitude rules (the snapshots of snapshots for birthdays of loved ones was my first creative interpretation).

So I present my first "banked" gratitude (still shot on June 21 in accordance with the rules, but the gratefulness of the situtation is about 10 days old).

The day after brewing his batch of stout, Hart decided to play hookey and work around the house instead of in the office. I'm grateful he did, because the yeast went absolutely crazy and bubbled out of the carboy for most of the afternoon. If he hadn't been home to quickly catch the fermenting beer in a bucket, we would have had an entire kitchen floor coated in sticky stout.
