Beer is proof that god loves us and wants us to be happy

I'm sitting here wondering what to blog about today whilst battling a most crippling craving for beer.

According to Wikipedia - beer dates back to the 5th millenium BC. Although it was originally considered a drink of barbarians - well i guess you could still consider it that...although there seem to be many many experts in the field of beer appreciation. The Haute Couture of beer.

Beer is really good for you - containing magnesium, selenium, potassium, and B vitamins amongst others. Not to mention the psychological benefits.

Although it does have its bad points too... The dreaded beer belly seems to be a common phenomenon here in South Africa. Much like that fashion disaster - the dreaded mullet. And for some reason a beer belly and a mullet often go hand in hand here too. mm not very sexy is it?

I wonder why women don't get beer bellys? I've been appreciating beer for many years already and even though I'm not mad about excercise I dont seem to have a beer boep. Anyone have any ideas? or know any women with beer belly's?

Maybe it has something to do with the fact that not many women really drink beer? Or do they - I have no idea. I have always loved beer.

My honey and I have this lovely pub ritual when we are feeling competitive - we have a "ten beer challenge". I have always maintained that he should give me some kind of one beer handicap - which he always uses against me when I actually win - which is - all the time.

Ten beers can really knock you out. I guess it also depends on the kind of beer and how much you have eaten. And as I love to remind my man - hormones play a huuuge role in the handling of ones liqour too.

Anyways - all this beer talk has made me thirsty - I'm off in a quest for beer ...
