But fun! Pink! Isn&#8217;t that enough?<\/p>\n<p>I also snagged <a href=\"http:\/\/princessleia.com\/images\/journalpics\/092009\/strawberrylambic_hoppinfrogpumpkin_grapecantillion.jpg\">a few beers<\/a> while I was out this evening. I was prompted by a craving for a pumpkin ale, and the place I went to only had the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hoppinfrog.com\/frogs-hollow-double-pumpkin-ale\/\">Hoppin&#8217; Frog Frog&#8217;s Hollow Double Pumpkin Ale<\/a>, which while nothing to write home about pumpkin-ale-wise, it sure has hit the spot. The other two were impulses, but I had to snag them when I saw them. The first is one <a href=\"https:\/\/wiki.ubuntu.com\/JanClaeys\">Jan Claeys<\/a> recommended I try, the Hanssens Oudbeitje &#8211; it&#8217;s a <i>strawberry<\/i> lambic, made in the old style of lambics so apparently it&#8217;s quite sour &#8211; no fruity sweet beer here, I&#8217;m looking forward to trying it soon. The last is a Cantillion (love!) I&#8217;ve never tried before, the Saint Lamvinus, made with Merlot grapes I&#8217;m also quite looking forward to cracking this one open.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, in preparation for the event tomorrow I threw together a few things tonight &#8211; a <a href=\"http:\/\/princessleia.com\/images\/journalpics\/092009\/ubuntuposter.jpg\">poster, picture frame with Matt Rosewarne&#8217;s photos and a donation glass<\/a>. The event is being dedicated to Matt and all proceeds from the donations are going to be donated to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.eff.org\/\">EFF<\/a> at the request of his family. I still need to print off some info about <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ubuntupennsylvania.org\">Ubuntu Pennsylvania<\/a> to hand out to folks, but right now we&#8217;re looking pretty good!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tonight I was at Staples picking up some last-minute items for the Ubuntu Pennsylvania Software Freedom Day Event tomorrow morning.
