When she said, "Oh, that's a silent 'K,'" it was a total highlight. I'm sure they're not teaching that in her kindergarten class (she's ahead) so she's learning it here from us, and that makes me even more proud

I remember all of the things my kids were so proud about...now they are driving and don't have time for us, except to ask for money..

What's a good wheat beer? I don't know anything about beer. You should see me browsing in liquor stores, I'm sooo out of place.
A great resource for finding new beers is, unsurprisingly, the internet. My favorite beer website (where I spend entirely too much time nerding out) is BeerAdvocate.com. If you go there, you can click on "beer styles" and get a list of all the most commonly-reviewed beers in a given style. For wheat beers, look at American Pale Wheat Ale, Hefeweizen, Dunkelweizen, Weizenbock, and Belgian Witbier.

Some good, widely available ones include Weihenstephaner Hefeweissbier, Sierra Nevada Kellerweis, and Hoegaarden.

ratebeer.com is a good site too. Bonesdance stole my thunder ( ), but this will be touched on in the articles as well.

I consider myself very knowledgeable about beer, but I'm not afraid to admit that bonesdance is a step ahead of me. Pity he doesn't live in Portland..... I could see the beginning of a beautiful friendship.*
