The Lambeth Method
The Lambeth Method is an old school form of cake decorating that has a reputation of being secretive and almost impossible to pipe without being educated in the technique. It definitely takes dedication and years of practice, however with persistence and a love of intricate piping you will able to confer the Lambeth Method. I realized most novice cake decorators are terrified to try the over-piping technique, due to the lack of instructions available. Although Joseph Lambeth wrote a book on his beautiful method of piping, however it is almost impossible to find a copy. 5th Avenue Cake Designs...Read More

No Cutter Gumpaste Rose Class
I was asked to teach six 6th grade girls how create gum paste roses, for a slumber party activity. After careful deliberation I decided it would be best to have a class on making roses without venires or cutters. Roses are extremely technical and with six eleven old girls I thought their attention span might be taxed. It was the correct choice, they had loads of fun and I held their attention to the end. Each created their own rose for a cupcake. I wanted to share the class with all of you! Flower paste rose class and video: Equipment: 1- recipe Vanilla Bean Cake/cupcakes Fondant, Flower...Read More
Sugar Pansies for My Grandma
I dedicate this flower paste tutorial to grandmother, who past away Thursday. My grandma was small in stature, but giant in heart!

Fondant Frills and Sculpted Modeling Chocolate Easter Cake
As I was designing these Easter cakes, I keep thinking of Easter bonnets, however I did not want to just place a bonnet on top of cake. I finally decided to mould a little face, out of modeling chocolate, to wear the bonnet. Modeling chocolate consists of two, in my case three, ingredients (chocolate , corn syrup, and icing sugar). Seems fairly easy, but not necessarily in all cases. If you over mix the corn syrup to the chocolate, it will become a greasy mess. Also, if you do not have complete contact with melting chocolates, you end with chocolate pieces in your mixture. Once you achieve...Read More

Gumpaste Cherry Blossom Tutorial
Cherry Blossoms have been a favorite of mine as long as I can remember. Their dreamy presence along with the soft beautiful pink colour are an attention grabber and make them the perfect cake topper for any special occasion, especially weddings. I decided to research the cherry blossom flower and the gorgeous tree they grow on. I was surprise to learn the calyx of the cherry blossom is primarily deep pink with a small amount 1/8 to 1/4 of calyx accented with a moss green colour. They bloom for about 14 days, which only adds to the allure of the flower. It occurred to me a gum paste cherry...Read More

Easter Basket with Royal Icing Needle Point
Needlepoint royal icing piping is a unique technique to take your sugar cookies or cakes (even cupcakes) to the next level. I adore the intricate piping skills that can be achieved with a cornet and nozzle. Although piping a needlepoint pattern onto a sugar cookie or cake is pretty straight forward it is time consuming. A detailed needlepoint royal icing cookie can take several hours to finish. The end result is a sensational work of art. Anikó Vargáné Orbán has amazing needlepoint royal icing work, visit here site ,I promise you will not be disappointed! With Easter just a about a month...Read More

The Sugar Cookie Dress to the Academy Awards
EVERYBODY'S GOT AN OPINION. When it comes to the Academy Awards' red carpet, that's about 40 million or more will be handing down judgments about this actress's ill-fitting dress or that one's overly done. It's enough to give both nominees and their stylists a serious case of the nerves. "No matter how long they have been doing this, the Academy Awards are still exciting, and the nominees are still nervous," said stylist Leslie Fremar, whose clients include Julianne Moore and Charlize Theron. "People lean on the conservative side because...Read More
Pink Penelope Learn How To Create Characters In Modeling Chocolate
Creating edible figures for cake toppers is a popular cake decorating technique. Lately pregnant mommies for baby showers have been showing up all over the internet. Brides and grooms are also a favorite. There are many mediums that can be used for sculpting these fun figures; gumpaste, fondant and modeling chocolate. I prefer moldering chocolate due to its clay like quality. It reminds me of polymer clay, but of course modeling chocolate is edible. Many years ago when Sydney was a figure skater I used to make figures of her skating, with polymer clay, and give them to her grandparents. Now...Read More
The Explosion of Cake Decorating Methods
The world of cake decorating has exploded with new techniques and methods. Over the past 25 years or so cake decorating has evolved, from simple cakes that were made mainly for flavor, to complex, multi-layered, multi-tiered delicacies that are shaped like realistic objects and entered into competitions. Along with the changing methods, tools have advanced as well. Today, elaborately decorated cakes are common, not just for a wedding, but for birthdays, graduations, baby showers and even seasonal holidays.

Saint Patrick's Day Cupcakes, Pot of Gold and Leprechaun Hat
It is time for us to have fun and good fortune with a special St. Patty's Day pot of gold and leprechaun hat created with modeling chocolate tutorial. Dating back to Medieval times, in Europe , the legend of the pot of gold is enthusiastically told by the Irish. The folklore claims fairies put the gold at the end of a rainbow and commandeered the leprechauns to guard it. This folklore has become an intricate symbolism of St. Patrick's Day, a holiday that celebrates everything Irish including the hope and luck it takes to find that elusive pot of gold. The famous...Read More
Brush Embroidery Tutorial
I thought it might be fun to learn a new method of brush embroidery..Victorian brush embroidery. Although the name sounds fancy the technique to create victorian brush embroidery is quite simple. Victorian brush embroidery generally is applied with two colours of royal icing to each petal. The embroidery is raised and lightly petal dusted or painted with petal dust for an elegant finish. This technique is prefect for special occasions such as bridal showers, wedding favors, and wedding cakes! I finished the cookies off with a few ivory tone vines for a delicate effect. Victorian Brush...Read More
Create Sugar and Brush Embroidery Peony Cupcakes
So many of you have asked if it was possible to create a sugar peony for a cupcake. I thought why not… As I have proclaimed in the past, cake decorating is not limited to cakes; you can use the same method for your cookie art and cupcake art. I designed three separate peonies methods for these cupcakes and just for fun I flavored them with edible dried peony petals . The peony cupcake in the front contains individual petals that I veined and frilled. The middle peony cupcake has individual petals that have been lightly veined, but not frilled (less time consuming). Finally the back...Read More
You Hold the Key to My Heart Cupcake Tutorial
I wanted to share a fun Valentine's Day tutorial with you (my way of saying Happy Valentine's Day)! I began by baking up a batch of cupcakes and a batch of royal icing, while the cupcakes were doing their own thing, baking, I used the time to sketch some ideas rattling around in my brain. I wanted the cupcakes to be stunning yet simple. I remembered I purchased a ClearView key and lock mold before Christmas, that is when I experienced a Eureka moment! While the cupcakes were cooling I prepared the heart lock and key. If you don't own a lock and key mold, no need to...Read More
Vintage English Garden Cupcake Video
I was recently commissioned to create vintage cupcakes for a wedding. The wedding, itself, will have a turn of the century theme and cupcakes will flow with the theme. The bride graciously invited me to her bridal gown fitting,in order to have the cupcake be inspired by her dress. I was excited by the moment I saw her blush pink wedding dress, and later that night began to design the cupcakes. I knew beautiful blossom flowers and elegant roses were apropos for the occasion to match her dress. The cupcakes for the wedding will be individually wrapped in blush coloured paisley cupcake...Read More
Oscar Inspired Fashion Sugar Cookies
The 86th Oscars will be held on March 2, 2014 with Ellen DeGeneres hosting. The anticipation for those few minutes the actors/directors et cetra will walk the Red Carpet starts with finding the perfect designer and commission them to create a one of a kind dress. The competition to procure a place of the topped dressed Red Carpet runway list is merciless, and sometimes can be humiliating (especially if actors' name appears on top worst list or not mentioned at all). In honor of the 86 Oscar I recreated Amy Adams' dress from the 85th Oscars 2013. She wore a magnificent Oscar de...Read More
How to Create a Fashion Inspired Cake
The key to an original inspired fashion cake is having a keen sense of the world around us. Nothing is insufficient from vintage craved fireplace, to the card you received on your birthday. I once found inspiration from an antique vanity. The colors that grab your attention can easily be transposed to a cake. I find myself taking photos of unusual objects throughout the day. Fashion encompasses us, it is forever evolving, yet also being reinvented. The fashion from the 1920′s have become the trends of today with a modern twist. We have the ability to create inspired edible...Read More
Super Bowl XLVIII Game Time Treats
Tomorrow at 4:30 kick off will begin for Super Bowl XLVIII. Payton Manning and Russell Wilson will be face to face in New Jersey at the MetLife stadium (freezing there tush off). Unlike Super Bowl I, where The Green Bay Packer's quarterback Bart Starr and The Kanas City Chiefs quarter back Len Dawnson were face to face at Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum with the temperature in Los Angles a balmy 79 degrees. For the past two weeks the news casters (on most channels) have talked about the freezing temperatures for tomorrow's game and how the cold will affect each team. The wait is...Read More
Pretty Pink Fabric Tufted Billow Weave Tutorial
I just adore tufted billow weave on a cake, and have decorated quite a few cakes with the tufted billow weave method. Susan Trianos started the puffing trend and it would behove you to visit her website. She has an exquisite cake gallery! Back to the cake above: after adding the tufted billows and medallions I then proceeded to created a fashion sugar inspire rose for the top layer,(it was important to keep the fashion inspired design). I thought this would be a creative and exciting tutorial to share with you. If you would like to see a video on the tufted billow weave please let...Read More
How to Make Modeling Chocolate Long Stem Roses in a Vase
I know I have gone cake decorating "crazy" when I see an ice cream cone and instead of thinking what flavor ice cream I want; I picture a vase holding long stem modeling chocolate roses. My husband wanted to grab ice cream on Saturday due to our unusual warm weather (today Denver is only 22 degrees), as we were waiting in line I visualized using an ice cream cone for a vase. Literally the moment we arrived home I began creating modeling chocolate roses. I had made some modeling chocolate on Friday, for another project, and we always have ice cream cones in the pantry, I was...Read More

Learn Broderie Anglaise Eyelet Lace Royal Icing on Sugar Cookie Video
I love working with both sugar paste and royal icing together; especially when designing with the broderie anglaise technique. You could use either medium alone, however I think it adds a special touch when combined. Broderie Anglaise is a French/English needlework technique mimic for cake decorating. The method consists of round or oval holes which are cut out of the paste, called eyelets, which are bound with over piped. The patterns, often depicting flowers, leaves, hearts vines, or stems, are further delineated by brush embroidery or scratch piping. Broderie Anglaise is a rewarding...Read More
Primrose Garden Tufted Heart on a Sugar Cookie
I own, as many of us do, a plethora of square cutters. I use them for mini cakes, sugar cookies, and biscuits. I try and use them as much as possible, however I sometimes find myself in a rut. It was literally kismet that I was playing around with scratch piping primroses when this idea for scratch piping primroses on a tufted open heart popped into my head. Primroses have heart shaped petals that matched my tufted heart. I seem to become engrossed when piping small designs and never know if I like my work until I take a few steps back. I was surprised to see I had designed a primrose garden...Read More
Decorated Tufted Heart Sugar Cookie
You know you have achieved cake/cookie decorating mania when you see a comforter online and it inspires you to recreate the effect on a cookie (this technique could be constructed on a cake as well). I was extremely pleased how eloquent the final result looked. My first thought was how nice they would be for Valentine's Day, however they are detailed, fragile and time consuming. The tufted heart cookie would be better suited for a wedding favor or a bridal shower. I literally have had over 10 wedding inquiries. If you plan to sell a similar design remember to price accordingly. You...Read More
Piping Buttercream Roses and Swirls Using Open Star Tip
With the playoff games tomorrow, being from Denver, and a Payton Manning fan we are having a small get together. Everyone loves my rose buttercream cupcakes piped on my rose flavored cupcakes. It might be the rose liqueur. I thought I would share a short tutorial on using the Wilton 1M piping tip/nozzle. I prefer the roses, but the guys tend to eat the swirls first (there is more frosting)! Go Broncos..unless your a Patriot's fan. Rose Vanilla Bean Cupcakes: 300 gram / 27/8-cup cake flour, sifted 300 grams/ 1 1/2 cups sugar 9 grams/2-teaspoon baking powder 1-teaspoon salt 300 grams/6...Read More
French Strawberry-Cherry Blossom Macaron Tutorial
French macarons have become a favorite pastry among most of my friends and family. I flavor my shells as well as the filling, therefore when you bite into the aromatic macaron the flavor sensation is amazing! I thought since Sydney will be home during President's Day weekend (also Valentine's Day) I would bake a few batches of her favorite flavor..Strawberry Cherry Blossom. Not only will it be a nice treat for Sydney, but French macarons are a perfect edible gift for the special people in your life for Valentine"s Day. The holiday has become about showing love to friends and...Read More
Fantasy Rose Cookie Tutorial
With lace once again being a romantic and popular choice for brides and weddings, I thought a sugar cookie decorated with a laced fantasy rose laying on a lace background and piped with a lace border would be perfect for a bridal shower or wedding favors. Not only does lace have an aristocratic touch, but a sense of fantasy. Like my 100 year old grandma says.."All fashion trends recycle you just have wait a century or so!" All kidding aside it is nice to see lace come back. This same design would work just as nice on a cake or a cupcake. You would need to adjust sizes and you...Read More
Fashion Inspired Ombre Buttercream Cupcake
I wanted to design a ruffle cupcake that reflected the soft beauty of frilled designer dresses incorporating the delicate flow that mimics the fabric frills, flowers, and ruffles that are in the runway's lovely dresses.

For this tutorial I wanted to show you how easily you can incorporate your favorite ruffles with a monochromatic ombre touch. I choose buttercream as a medium to exhibit the possibilities of piping as a fashion inspired cake decorating tool. Royal...Read More
Romantic Long Stem Sugar Rose Video
Rose are a traditional gift (for that special person in your life), 196 million roses are bought on Valentine's day. Everyone loves to receive that inciting long rectangle box with aromatic rose laying on a pillow of tissue paper. However within a few days your delicate rose begins to wither away; you have three choices at this point to press them, dry them out, or though them away. Why not give flower paste (gumpaste) roses instead? Fully opened roses that you can place in a beautiful vase and save for ever. Learn how to create fully opened long stem flower paste rose bouquet or...Read More
Victorian Days Cupcake Tutorial
If you are familiar with my posts and videos you know I enjoy showing a week of cupcakes, next a week of cookies, and a week of cakes; I want to show that any of my designs will work for decorating all of these pastries. This week I have been showing different decorating mediums and construction of cupcakes. The Victorian Days cupcakes were inspired by a candle topper I have, looking at normal everyday objects can inspire incredible ideas for cake decorating. I used a flat fondant top for the Victorian Days cupcakes, then laid a thin laced fondant handkerchief (for a delicate touch). I...Read More
Snowflake Cupcakes
January is an odd month, the holidays are over, friends and family have gone home, the weather (most places in the U.S) is cold, snowy, and we have the shortest days of sunshine. I find myself feeling melancholy. I am not one for giving into sad emotions for long; this year I decided to use the month for a cupcake inspiration and bake champagne cupcakes. I used a wrap method to fondant cover the cupcakes in cool blue and decorated them with snowflakes, a shell border and delicate string work. For the recipe to the champagne cupcake , substitute with champagne. I used the left over...Read More
Good Fortune Cherry Blossom Cupcake Tutorial
I was asked to review New York Baking company's silicone baking buddies. New york's Baking Company was kind enough to send their very bright silicone cups in exchange for my honest opinion of the baking buddies. I have baked 3 batches of cupcakes using the silicone cups, I found the cups released with ease and handled the heat of my oven, however if you are planning to give/and or sell your cupcakes you need to use cupcake liners. The baking buddies are guaranteed for life; unless you want give away the silicone cups. The cups would be great for chocolate caramel cups, jello...Read More
New Year's Haute Couture Cookies
Nicolas Jebran's designs are cutting edge yet classic; his dresses flow with movement. Sydney and I were looking at his Winter 2014 collection when we both were drawn to the same dress, although neither Sydney nor I can purchase the dress for New Year's Eve we can create an inspired fashion fondant and royal icing cookie. Fashion inspired cakes and cookies have become popular for weddings and other special occasions. In honor of both Nicolas Jebran and New Year's eve I have prepared a video showing you how we recreated an inspired Nicolas Jebran Haute Couture dress on a...Read More
Whimsical New Year 2014 Gift Box Cake
Sydney loves bows on boxes, she thought a three tier gift box cake with whimsical flowers, swirls, and of course bows would be an awesome New Year's Eve cake! We wanted each tier to have it's own special gift, the bottom is filled with peace, the middle with a year of hope, and the top love. The ribbons on each layer match the lid of the proceeding cake and we chose colors that are bright and cheerful. As the last holiday of 2013 and first holiday of 2014 is upon us we wanted to give you a fun tutorial to start the New Year right as we say goodbye to 2013 before we welcome...Read More
Nutcracker Snow Globe Sugar Cookies
I adore snow globes, they are all over our house. This year I wanted to capture Sydney's first experience at the Nutcracker. She was barely two and although we had wonderful seats, she couldn't see more than the shadows on the stage. I used a royal icing silhouette technique. Creating a silhouette from royal icing is fairly easy (it is a run out image), that being said the image of Clara is quite small and you need to work quickly. I would like to thank Sydney for her beautiful artwork and creating the Clara template for the snow globe; it is available here! Nutcracker Snow...Read More
Sugar Christmas Tree
I just had to share this fun and life-like Christmas tree piped with royal icing (including the ornaments)! Literally the entire tree including the drying time in between the leaves and the ornaments took 30 minutes, yet these christmas trees have a wow factor. After spending hours creating the royal icing filigree trees for the Colorado Wonderland cake, Sydney and I wanted to construct Christmas trees that anyone could recreate without too much practice. These Christmas trees would be perfect for a cake or a large cupcake. Even by themselves on your Christmas table with an edible...Read More
Colorado Wonderland Cake Video
Creating a Colorado Christmas cake has been a pet project of mine for a while now, since last Christmas. Sydney and I designed the cake together, she constructed the filigree templates and the trees. It was an incredible experience working with Sydney for our first project, since she arrived home. I will admit didn't sleep much, however it was worth it. Watching the cake come to life as I added each tree, as Sydney directed where each should be placed, her eyes began to glisten. She was able to stand a few feet and see the entire cake. If you have someone who can stand back it is...Read More
Glacé Fruit Tutorial
Glacé fruit is no ordinary gift, it takes at least 3 days to properly candied the citrus fruit, however the succulent taste is well worth the effort. Purchasing glacé fruit can cost at least $60.00 for 2 pounds, therefore when the recipient of the glacé fruit receives your homemade candied fruit they feel honored. It has become a holiday tradition to prepare glacé citrus (mostly lemons and oranges) in our home. We beautifully package the treasured candied fruit, and give them to the specialist of friends. I have found a crock pot with setting for temperature is the easiest and most...Read More
White Chocolate Cranberry Cake
The weather has been frigid here for the past week (6 degrees F/-15 degrees C), baking has become the best solution to keep warm, besides it is holiday baking time!

In fact King Arthur has a set of 12 cute paper baking mini loaf pans, with a holiday bow and cellophane wrapping, you have a great edible gift. Fresh cranberries are generally available in the produce section of your local grocery store, however if you are unable...Read More

Pours a murky brown with a foamy dark khaki head that settles to a film on top of the beer. Small dots of lace slowly drip into the remaining beer on the drink down. Smell is of malt, brown sugar, and dark fruits. Taste is much the same with dark fruit flavors on the finish. There is a mild amount of spice bitterness on the palate with each sip. This beer has a good level of carbonation with a crisp and prickly mouthfeel. Overall, this is a pretty good beer with a nice aroma but the flavors aren't as good in my opinion.

Appearance This Belgian is a nice, not-too-dark brown in color wand cloudy with no transparency. The head is off-white, almost a light yellowish-brown kind of white, that was thick and fluffy.
Smell This big fella has some strong yeasty notes that lead off the bouquet. There are some super-sweet malts that come next. They are mixed with rich toffee and a buttery aroma. I can smell some fruits, green apples and peach for instance, but this BSDA is focused on the rich, luscious malts.
Taste The butter and toffee come up bigger at the taste. The malts are lightly toasted with strong caramel. The fruits are non-traditional and tart, like the green apple, but very tasty.
Mouthfeel This one is super-carbonated with some strong, lip-smacking sugars. Its not full-bodied but a bit bigger than medium. This ale kept my salivary glands working overtime.
Drinkability Ive had more complex BSDAs, but this was very satisfying and hid well the 8.5% ABV.

Had this as a sample at the Great Lost Bear with my wife. The beer has a huge lace with a nice brown color
The nose is sweet strawberries with a nice malt backing very unique
The taste starts sweet maltyness with a hint of vanilla the taste slowly turns to a slight bitterness as the carbonation dissipates

Large bottle, with cork and cage. Pours an unusual shade of soft dark brown. Cloudy, some lacing, nose is Yeasy, musty, earthy. Medium to full bodied, lucious mouthfeel, this beer caresses the tongue. Notes of plums, earth,fruit. Sweeter earlier and finishes with a tartness. Sophisticated brew. Interesting, differant and complex. Another tasty creation from Dupont. Worth seeking out.

Single bottle, part of a Dupont release at the LCBO.
Poured into an Affligem goblet. Bright caramel brown in colour, with about a half inch of head that recedes into a thin ring. Nice looking brew.
Nose is very fruity and quite on par for the style - grape, plum, raisin, dates - with spices and a bit of yeast.
The fruit, spices and bready flavors are all there, but there's that strong yeast component that isn't hitting me right, and the brew is quite boozy. Very sweet.
Carbonation is very sharp and it feels a bit off.
Not sure if this is my own personal preferences or just a less than stellar example of the style, but in either case I wasn't too impressed with this.

I got this as a single at Union Jack's on the Manatawny. I drank it in a wine glass.
Pours a cloudy reddish-orange with a 1/2 finger head of off-white foam. Head falls to islands and a ring, with minimal lacing.
Aroma is fairly strong fruits like dark cherries , dates, and figs, with some musty barnyard funk and yeast thrown in. Smells inviting.
Flavor is big, dark, sweet malts, fruity as hell, with notes of cherries, dates, and plums. Nice Belgiany barnyard funk and yeast, with alcohol coming through as it warms. Slightly sour, which is a nice touch. Hop character is minimal. Aftertaste is long, caramely, and warm.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied and fizzy. It's kind of on the sweet side, and sweet and warm in the finish.
This is a delicious Belgian strong dark. Darkly fruity, sweet with a touch of sour, good phenolics, all make this an enjoyable experience. Not as cloying or overbearing as some Brunes. Highly recommended.

Hazed medium brown with an orangey cast of glowing light, nice semi-rocky head climbs to over an inch in height. Laces in delicate strings to begin with, later in incomplete sheets. Aroma of medium-ripe peach, slightly astringent, some bitter baker's chocolate. Lighter mouthfeel, spritzy and animated carbonation. I like the complexity in this one, some sour cherries, bitter alkaloid senses, and that underlying bitter chocolate that is especially notable close to the finish. Not as sweet or heavy as some of the darker Belgian brews can be, and I usually like the maltier renditions, but this one was a nice change of pace and works well for me as a beer.

2010 on the cork
(Served in a chalice)
A- This beer has a champagne pop filling the glass with ¾ of light tan foam before eventually settling to a walnut brown hazy body with a strong carbonation of tiny bubbles.
S- The soft malt sweetness has a nutty note to it with a yeasty ester note of dark raisins and some brown candy sugar notes in the finish.
T- The nutty woody character to the dark caramel and pot caramel flavors has a slight sweet malt flavor. There are some dark dried fruit notes that lead to a crisp fizz finish. There is a slight vinous alcohol heat in the aftertaste.
M- This beer has a medium-full mouthfeel with a very soft alcohol heat warmth and a tight fizz.
O- This beer has a nice blend of malt and pot caramel with some interesting yeast ester character. The vinous note in the finish blends well with the other flavors. Very tasty twist for a dark Belgian beer.

Scarlet bronze with floating debris and a retaining skim of milky beige.
Fragrant of cork and cedar, and seared bosc pear, brown sugar, and dandelion.
Enters, first, with a fig like maltiness. Traced with burnt sugars, and phantoms of maple. Fruity, with apples skins, and hard pears, ripening sweeter as it rests. Woody midsection full of cedar, sawdust, and dry pine. Ends with a lingering pear notion and pangs of leafy weed bitterness.
Modestly round in body, with a lightening carbonation. This is sating and drinkable in moderate amounts.
A solid version that's about a peg below earthshaking.

On tap at the Back Abbey in Claremont, CA. Pours a brownish with a light tan head. The smell is, of course, belgiany. The tate has that earth, dirt, and grape smell. The taste is earthy, fruity in the grape variety and light overall. Not a thick beer, goes down fairly easily. Interesting and pretty good for a dark belgian ale.

A recent addition to the Okie beer scene. Review from notes
Pours an effervescent orange/caramel with one finger of tan head.
Some head retention & lacing
S: Slight sourness, a touch of brown bread & some orchard fruit as this warms
T: Candi sugar, brown bread, caramel & apple skins & cherry fruittyness up front. Mustyness, woody dryness are here as this warms, along with more apple peels & a booze tinge. Finishes dry, woody & somewhat funky, almost pulled a 4.0
MF: Soft & effervescent at the same time, medium bodied

Lightly hazy, tawny-coppery-reddish brown in hue, the color has lovely depth to it. The head was off-white in color with hints of beige in the foam as well. At its highest point the foam was a massive three fingers in height. Head retention was solid; it slowly faded to a bubbly cap of a half finger in height. This cap did get smaller overtime but it did last the entire consumption. There was no subsequent lacing on either pour into my Duvel glass. Odd. And disappointing. Even with this flaw in the appearance this beer does look very pleasant if not unremarkable.
The nose is a strong mix of toasty caramel malts that exude wonderful sweetness and this mingled perfectly with an array of fruity qualities like red apples, dates, raisins, plums, figs, and then the nose kicks into a bready, candy sugar, alcohol vibe. I like the dark rum aromas. I cant forget to mention those lovely peppery, lightly tart and clove smells. I really like everything the nose offers, it is not extremely complex but it is quite lovely. Inviting.
The palate is a bit less complex then the nose indicated. Most of the qualities detected previously are accounted for but there is a bit of hotness from the alcohol that drowns out some of the softer flavors. This beer warms my belly more then it should, even with the 8+% abv. The malt is not as tasty as I had hoped either. There is some yummy caramel but it lacks depth and secondary flavors. I like the sweetness but I want more. The fruitiness doesnt blend with the malt because of the alcohol. I get apples, plums, figs coated in candy sugar and a kiss of marshmallow infused melon. Peppery, clove underbelly. The finish is weak and the beer falls apart, it is curt on the aftertaste as well. The overall flow of the palate could be much improved. It was a good match with my fruit bowl. Disappointing when it flew solo.
Almost medium in body, the carbonation is moderately low; the mouthfeel is satisfactory. There is nothing noteworthy about it; I guess I would call it utilitarian.
Well this beer is drinkable, no doubt. But there is nothing special about it. I like it but Im not in a real hurry to drink it again because it lacks a hook to catch my attention. This bottle was purchased in Minneapolis, MN and it has chilled in my cellar for a few months. I must note, that his beer is available in Omaha now; maybe I will try a fresh bottle if the price is right. Worth a try if you havent.

One of the beers at the Charlotte Oktoberfest that I was looking forward to sampling and finally got my hands on it. Lighter than I imagined with a nice frothy white head that did not dissipate in the sampling glass. Great example of the Strong Dark Ale style. Easy to consume and the spicy esters make for a enjoyable experience.

750 ml bottle. Cork dated 2004, with no freshness or best-before date.
Poured a cloudy light brown with chunky tan head and light-to-moderate lacing. Aroma full of caramel malts, dark fruit, and earthy yeast. Flavor starts with sweet caramel malts and finishes nicely tart, dry and spicy. Somewhat creamy, medium-bodied mouth-feel.
Pleasant, though the flavor doesn't quite live up to the appearance or aroma.

In the aftermath of the Oklahoma tornadoes, there are several stories of survival from storm victims who were wearing helmets that may have saved their lives.FOX 5 was one of the first stations in the southeast to cover the importance of helmets after the 2011 tornado outbreak in Alabama and Georgia.The importance of helmets was first learned after 248 people died in the tornado outbreak in Alabama on April 27, 2011. "Not surprising, almost half had died principally because of severe head injuries," said Russ Fine of the University of Alabama at Birmingham. Seeking shelter and doing a better job of protecting your head may be the combination that saves lives in the future.The conclusion is that safety helmets -- bike, motorcycle, sports -- should be worn when seeking shelter against a tornado.Birmingham police officer Mike Culberson put on his motorcycle helmet when the April 2011 tornado picked up his home."I saw it, picked it up, put it on and went to my safe place," Culberson said. He laid on the floor between the bath tub and the vanity as trees crashed down on his house and heavy beams blew through the ceiling on top of his head. His motorcycle helmet protected him from serious injuries."I would encourage everybody during a tornado put something on your head," Culberson said. Perhaps the most compelling case of all from the Alabama outbreak is from young Noah Stewart. He and his family were sucked out of their home. Noah flew as high as a telephone pole and landed a long way away. Luckily for Noah, he was wearing a baseball helmet.
Firefighters are calling a man a hero after he helped save a family from a burning home in DeKalb County.

Suzi's Blog
About Those Corn Muffins
Well, thank God for Google alerts. You know, if you are an author, you can put up an alert for any post that Google might track. Any post using your name or the name of your book. Nice to know if someone has written about you.
Important to know if the blogger has committed some error or a major, tragic, dumb mistake.
My blog last week for Simply Corn Muffins called for 1 tablespoon of buttermilk. It's actually 1 1/4 cups. So, if you tried my poor version of the recipe and failed, I owe you a corn muffin. If you come by to Cooking by the Book at 13 Worth Street, New York, New York, I will happily issue you my penance.
You see, those muffins are so good they are now my standard breakfast. I bake, freeze, microwave, and adorn with butter and jam or honey. I have lots, made with the right amount of buttermilk. As for the batter you have from last week, if you still have it, I would suggest using it as mortar for your patio.
My thanks to author Crescent Dragonwagon for being alert and oh so understanding.
Simple Cornbread Muffins from The Cornbread Gospels
Have you ever been to New York? You know, the city where you can get anything.
Except a decent corn muffin. Oh, there are muffins aplenty here. You'll see them in carts, in storefronts, adorning the countertops of every deli and coffee shop. You can't miss them because they are huge. Lift one and you risk a hernia. Not only are they gigantic, but they have the flavor of sawdust. Your only hope is in your own kitchen.
And that help is very readily found in The Cornbread Gospels by Crescent Dragonwagon. She's titled these "Simple Corn Muffins" but I don't think "simple" is the right word. Elegant, wonderful, right-sized, perfect-textured. Those are the proper ways to describe these delicious creatures.
Fresh from the oven, adorned with butter and slathered with honey, it's a grand breakfast. You really don't need that bacon or sausage on the side. Just a good espresso. Quickly made, these muffins may be as quickly devoured.
Oh, they do freeze. Just in case.
Simple Corn Muffins
Yield: one dozen
- Vegetable oil cooking spray
- 1 cup unbleached white flour
- 1 cup stone-ground yellow cornmeal
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 ¼ cups buttermilk
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- 2 eggs
- ⅓ cup melted butter
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Spray a 12-cup muffin tin with oil, or line with muffin papers.
Combine the flour, cornmeal, salt, and baking powder in a large bowl, stirring well. Set aside.
Whisk together the buttermilk and baking soda in a medium bowl until the baking soda is dissolved. Whisk in the eggs, sugar, and melted butter or oil.
Stir the combined wet ingredients into the dry until the mixture is just barely combined. Spoon into the prepared muffin tin.
Bake until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Serve warm.

I don't have to tell you the Browns have spent most of the past eight seasons languishing at the back of the field in the AFC North. And only the dreamers and the very, very optimistic give them any chance to win the division this season.
But you don't have to be an ardent Browns backer to believe Cleveland can be competitive early this season. Their schedule couldn't be much more favorable in the first three months. In their first 11 games, they play all of two — two! — playoff teams from a season ago. Their Week Two game at Indianapolis looks like their toughest test, but the Colts perhaps aren't quite as imposing as they were several years ago.
Four of the Browns' first six games are at home, and they are favored in all of them in lines set by Cantor Gaming, which, I can assure you, isn't installing Cleveland as favorites because their oddsmakers wear Browns Starter satin jackets to stay warm in their air-conditioned sportsbooks. No, the lines are measures of public perception, and Cantor believes the public will consider the Browns favorites in those four games.
In fact, on Cantor's line, the Browns are favored in their first six home games: vs. Cincinnati (Sept. 11), Miami (Sept. 25), Tennessee (Oct. 2), Seattle (Oct. 23), St. Louis (Nov. 13) and Jacksonville (Nov. 20).
Let's consider those opponents. The Bengals are likely to be starting rookie QB Andy Dalton, who would be making his regular-season debut vs. Cleveland. The Dolphins, Titans and Seahawks also could have QB instability, depending how the compressed free agency and trade market unfolds. The Rams are improving, but they aren't yet elite. The same could be said for Jacksonville.
The Browns' final five games are no picnic: two games each vs. Baltimore and Pittsburgh and a road trip to Arizona. The question is, can they be near the division lead when the real running begins in the AFC North? It's not unfathomable. It won't be easy, of course, and the Browns themselves are a work in progress.
But if the Browns are hopelessly out of it by the time December rolls around, it would signal some big problems in Cleveland. There have been tougher schedules, that's for sure.

Cannes would be happy to have anything from Terrence Malick; the fest bestowed upon him their Palme d'Or last year for "The Tree of Life," which went on to top many ten-bests of 2011 and even landed a coveted spot on Roger Ebert's greatest films of all time.
Malick fans no longer have to wait five or twenty years between projects; he's got three more on the way. But, while one has finally been given a title -- "To The Wonder" -- and technology is helping to speed up its production, there's nothing to suggest Malick will change his ways and pander to traditional production, post-production and release models. He'll finish them in his sweet time, and by the time we're done whining about it we'll probably thank him for it.
Ben Affleck was a good student while shooting Malick's "To The Wonder" and applied what he learned while shooting "Argo," for which the advance buzz is strong (it lands October 12). Rachel Weisz plays Affleck's sister, and says the experience working with Malick was "unlike anything I've ever had." She adds, "Unorthodox would be a massive understatement. There isn't really a script, you don't know what the story is, you don't know who the other characters are. I knew I was Ben Affleck's sister and that he was in love with two different women but otherwise I didn't know what was going on."
The second two projects, the one formerly known as "Lawless" and "Knight of Cups" are on dual tracks. His bevy of top talent -- Ryan Gosling, Christian Bale, Natalie Portman, Rooney Mara and Cate Blanchett -- are likely savouring the experience, and not just because of the magic hour lighting. Malick tackles each day with creativity and impulsiveness; a set plan would interfere with the magic that he and his longtime cinematographer Emmanuel Lubezki and production designer Jack Fisk create.
The status of Malick's three upcoming projects are laid out below; in the meantime, "Days of Heaven" and "The Thin Red Line" are both streaming on Netflix.
"To The Wonder"
Status: Completed enough to earn an R rating
Ted | May 16, 2012 2:37 PM
I think Tugg is a cool concept and hopefully will allow interesting films to be seen in areas without dedicated "art house" theaters. However, it's not well-known or established enough that Malick's producers would exclusively distribute "To the Wonder" through Tugg. I expect the roll out to look similar to that of The Tree of Life with additional support from Tugg in smaller communities. If the film is less "experimental" (for lack of a better word) than TTOL, than it might get a bit larger release. I doubt this is being shopped too much at Cannes. Malick has probably been more-or-less done for weeks now and given that the distribution rights are already sold everywhere else, I'm sure the producers have been in negotiations with distributors for weeks. Also, I know a few theaters Holland have listed a late December release date. Assuming that they are nearing final negotiations with a distribution, and my belief the U.S. will get this before Holland, I think an August or September release is plausible. I think Malick's producers are probably planning to release this outright, but given the probable timing of release, it's not implausible that they may try to get the film in at Venice and release it right after in the U.S.
a | May 16, 2012 2:13 PM
"Lawless" is NOT in production. It was always supposed to shoot after Knight of Cups. Some filming was done at various Austin festivals while they were happening, but Mara has said it officially starts principal photography this fall. She's also busy shooting three movies before that (The Bitter Pill, the Spike Jonze movie, and a movie with Ben Foster and Casey Affleck). Knight of Cups shoots this summer.

****NOTE: This is a completely redesigned kit by the manufacturer and now includes the drain solenoid.
***This pump and motor kit replaces many old style pump and motor kits that were manufactured since 1970. The instructions are included with this kit to help you to make it adaptable to your dishwasher.
This part works with the following brands: GE, Hotpoint & Kenmore.
This part fixes the following symptoms:

CustomerWarren from Glendale Heights IL
I had a problem where the GE dishwasher would randomly stall upon startup due to a dead spot in the motor which prevented it from energizing. I removed the dishwasher's bottom access panel to inspect it and found that not only was the motor dead but it had a sizable leak emanating from the pump seal. I removed the dishwasher from under the cabinet area and turned it over to make it easier to replace the motor and pump assembly which only took a matter of minutes; the most difficult part of the repair being the reinstalling of the dishwasher. The replacement motor/pump assy was not only modified from the original parts but it is also much quieter than the original. I also have to commend PartSelect on their very speedy delivery which was only 2 days. All in all with a couple of minor modifications that was taken care of with the included parts the repair went very easy.

I removed the dishwasher, removed the front kick panel, layed the dishwasher on its back, loosened the clamps and removed the old motor and pump assy. Cleaned up the area where the unit was, Installed the new unit, tightened the clamps and it was done. Probably took around an hour because of my cleaning up the sealing areas.

Piece of cake. All done and working just fine.
Level of DifficultyA Bit Difficult
Time to do repair:1- 2 hours
CustomerJames from San Diego CA
Pulled the dishwasher out from under the counter using a little rug to keep the metal feet from scratching the tile. It is surprisingly light. Old motor and pump are held in mainly by pipe clamps, easy to remove once the washer has been pulled out and turned on its side. The instructions that came with the pump kit show how to set it up for several different dishwashers. Once you figure out which one you have it is quite easy to set it up. Mine leaked when I first started it up. I pulled it back out and re-tightened the large pipe clamps and it now runs dry. The dishwasher runs quieter and the dishes come out clean now.

Removed the dishwasher from under the counter, found where the leak was coming from, which took the most time. We ordered the new part on line, it came the next day and the installation of the new part took about 30 minutes and the dishwasher is like new now. This procedure saved us a lot of money.

I disconnected the water line on the left-front. Disconnected the drain line at the air-break. I removed the AC power-in box on the right front and disconnected the power lines going to the unit. I took out the two screws holding the unit to the cabinet (above the door) and slid the unit out onto a drop cloth (protect the floor; some water spills). Pulled the unit out and turned over. Followed the directions with the motor & pump valve kit, which were very easy to follow. Then reversed the above. Nut drivers are a must for this job.

Men's Tennis Opens Dual Match Competition at No. 37 USF
FORT MYERS, Fla. – The FGCU men's tennis team will kick off the 2010 dual match season on Tuesday (Jan. 19) when they travel to Tampa to take on the No. 37 South Florida Bulls. Competition is set to begin at 2:00 p.m. at the USF Varsity Tennis Courts.
The 37th-ranked Bulls are the third nationally-ranked opponent for the Eagles, after opening the season competing in a tournament that featured No. 13 Florida State and No. 15 Illinois. After Tuesday's match with USF, the Blue and Green once again take on the 13th-ranked Seminoles, this time in a dual match.
"We're going to have a very challenging non-conference schedule, and I'm happy about that," head coach J. Webb Horton said. "Playing some of the top teams in the nation this early in the season will help us prepare for our conference competition later on."
FGCU returns three seniors, including Thibaud Aime (Figeac, France), who was named to the 2009 All-Atlantic Sun Second Team, along with Raphael Costa (Brasilia, Brazil) and Gonzalo Rafael De Villa (Miami, Fla.). Horton is expecting big things from newcomers Matthew Rock (Fort Lauderdale, Fla.), Mitchell Lvovsky (Dania Beach, Fla.), and Carlo Checchia (Brasilia, Brazil), who all come to FGCU as transfers this year. "With the leadership of Thibaud (Aime) and some exciting newcomers, I expect to have a very competitive team this season," said Horton. "Our transfers were all solid players for their respective institutions last season, and I think our freshmen will be welcome additions as well." Collin Brown (Tallahassee, Fla.) and Nicholas Moore (Wesley Chapel, Fla.) are the only two freshmen on a veteran-laden roster this season.
The Eagles open up the home portion of the 2010 season on Saturday, February 6, when they host Stetson. That will also mark the first A-Sun conference match for the Eagles. Play is scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. at the FGCU Tennis Complex.

A good life and a happy family are aspirations for the foreseeable future.
We have been cool-hunting and sharing our findings on the disposition and attitude of the 'cool folk' (people aged 14-34.) And we discovered things that would make a marketing professional sit up and perhaps rethink his or her Kotler, Trout and Porter!
Nevertheless, we decided to shift gears for our current probe and get to where all this is rooted — the mental make-up of the cool folk that determines their actions as consumers. We asked them to list what they seek in the near future. We realised it would be difficult to peg it to a pre-decided timespan as that went against the spirit of cool-hunting. However, one of our young back-end team stars (all of 22) came up with the suggestion that we need to capture the timespan that respondents use as a point of reference for 'foreseeable' future which, she argued, will help establish a context for marketers. Bingo! For the 233 respondents who were in the filtered list for consideration, that 'foreseeable future' was 3-6 years.
The top four responses that came up are 'good life', 'happy family', 'wealth and health', 'peace & love'. Almost 40 per cent of our respondents aspire to a good life and are working for it. This includes fancy cars, gadgets, good homes, and travel. True to living on either side of the spectrum, the next popular response was 'happy family', with one-fourth of the respondents aspiring to it. Amassing 'wealth' was a close third, followed by 'health, peace and love'.
We ran through our findings with sociologist Aarushie who told us to club 'good life' and 'wealth' as they represent materialistic aspirations in comparison to 'happy family, health, peace and love'. Now, what does this show? Sixty-two per cent of the respondents have materialistic aspirations. Aarushie challenged us to probe deeper into the remaining 38 per cent as she believes a significant number would identify materialistic aspirations as a means to 'happy family or peace of mind and even love'.
Overall, the hunt has thrown up something that is in sync with what the marketing fraternity believes: Cool folk are driven by materialism. It seems the song 'Rockstar' by the Canadian band Nickelback is an apt anthem: "I'll need a credit card that's got no limit, And a big black jet with a bedroom in it", not to mention "A bathroom I can play baseball in!" Or should that be cricket?

© Copyright 2014 Clayton News Daily
REX — Clayton County parents will not be able learn about Clayton County after school programs Thursday after all.
That's because they'll be doing it Saturday instead.
Although the date for the county's "Lights on Afterschool" rally had originally been scheduled for Thursday, county parks and recreation officials had decided to roll into Saturday's Fall Festival, which they are hosting with Commissioner Sonna Singleton.
The move was part of a decision by parks and recreation officials to roll several events planned for this weekend into one massive fall celebration. That, in turn, will ensure greater exposure for after school programs in the county.
"This is a special time of year when observation and support for after school programs are recognized around the country," a statement from the recreation department said. "We know how vital these programs are in keeping our children safe and in a productive environment while school is out."
The festivities will last from 2 to 6 p.m., at Rex Park, which is behind the Carl Rhodenizer Recreation Center, 3499 Rex Road in Rex. The combined event will feature the rally, face painting, moonwalks, games, a rock-climbing wall, food and a Halloween costume contest.
The rally and the festival will not be the only activities taking place that day. The festivities will be capped off with an installment of the recreation department's Movies Under the Stars series, with a viewing of "Hotel Transylvania" at 9 p.m.
All of the festivities are free to attend, and the public is encouraged to attend. Attendees staying for the movie are also encouraged to bring lawn chairs or blankets to sit on and snacks to eat during the viewing.

I live in Italy and have an italian billing address; because of this Apple assumes that I want the app store in italian which is not the case.
The whole UI is in italian, the app descriptions and their reviews are in italian, even the "Top apps" are the top apps in Italy instead of in the United States. I can't even begin to explain how much this annoys me.
Is there any way to change the language to English? What if someone who lives in Italy doesn't speak italian, which is not that uncommon?
The only way I found was to ask an american friend his credit card number and use that - along with a fake name and billing address - to make purchases, but unfortunately now we don't speak much anymore and I was forced to switch back to my credit card again. As soon as I did that it said that my cc must be associated with an italian billing address, and as soon as I put my real address it changed the language back to italian.
I'm really desperate!

A teen who had an air rifle near a Simpsonville school Tuesday afternoon prompted a partial lockdown of the campus.
Oby Lyles, spokesman for Greenville County Schools, said a parent called authorities and reported a man with a shotgun was seen at a tree line near Rudolph Gordon Elementary School on Scuffletown Road.
Lyles said the campus was placed on partial lockdown while authorities assessed the threat.
Greenville County deputies said it appeared the teen wandered too close to the school. He was not charged.
Lyles said most students had left the school before it was locked down. The partial lockdown was lifted at 3:30 p.m.

The babysitter arrested after a 5-year-old accidentally shot himself with a gun that investigators say she left within his reach, was intoxicated on marijuana the day of the shooting according to a probable cause affidavit.
Melissa Ann Ringhardt, 19, of Vidor, is held on a $250,000 bond in the Orange County Jail on a felony charge of abandoning or endangering a child.
Ringhardt was living with the family of five-year-old John Allen Read. Investigators say she left a semiautomatic .40-caliber handgun on a coffee table Monday when she went into a bedroom to take a nap.
When she woke up, she didn't see Read and began looking for him. She found him in the living room, dead from a gunshot wound.
Ringhardt was also caring for the family's 6-month-old child who was not injured in the incident.
Ringhardt could face a sentence of six months to two years if convicted.
No additional charges have been filed as of 4 p.m. Friday, but the investigation is ongoing.

Wilson pleased with Whites' response
12:36pm Monday 10th February 2014 in Headlines By Joel Holt
SMILING skipper Glenn Wilson was pleased with Salisbury City's response from the defensive nightmare at Halifax Town to register a clean sheet against promotion-chasing Alfreton Town on Saturday.
A 0-0 draw, played in the gale and stormy conditions at the Ray Mac, satisfied the 27-year-old following a 5-1 thumping at The Shay.
"We had to improve on the defensive display in Halifax and the gaffer made sure we worked on our mistakes in the week," Wilson explained to the Journal.
"We all put a shift in on Saturday as we owed it to the fans after not putting in a good performance in West Yorkshire, but these things happen. It's a long season and we're going to have days like that.
"Fortunately, we put it right against Alfreton. Mikey made sure we improved straight away."
Currently, Wilson has appeared in all of City's 30 Skrill Premier clashes, and in that time has predominantly paired up with James Clarke at centre-half.
But Clarke's injury gave utility player Brian Dutton the chance to assert a solid partnership with Wilson and not concede against a side that have netted almost 50 goals.
"Listen, James has been brilliant this season and I've enjoyed playing alongside him," he added.
"Brian has come in and done very well, like he has all season when we've needed him. He's good enough to handle this level and there's not much difference. I was happy with a point on Saturday."
City, lingering in the top half of the table, are in touching distance of creeping back into the top five, and Wilson, formerly of tomorrow night's opponents Woking, is confident they can compete with the surrounding high-flying teams.
"We want to be up at the top competing.
"We're in a great position at the moment but we need to win our games in hand, if we do that we'll be in an even better spot. Who knows what can happen."
Salisbury go to Southport on Saturday (3pm). Follow @Saljournalsport for live updates.

I ordered 2 pair but didn't expect to receive them for a month according to the ad. I got them in a few days. They are perfect. Light weight, pretty and comfortable. Rita
These do not detract from your face, being frameless. Great to wear when you don't want anyone to know you need readers.
Nice and light. Great service and trustworthy. I know I will be buying from Debby Burk Optical again.
Great glasses...great service!
I bought two pair and they were sent immediately. I think I got them in 2 days. Great service. Terrific product. My wife got the violet and the pictures don't do it justice. A much nicer, brighter color than pictured.

PLATTSBURGH — One of the North Country's most colorful characters has sailed off into the sunset for the final time.
Frank Pabst, legendary sailor, historian, businessman and outspoken social critic, died Tuesday during surgery at Fletcher Allen Healthcare in Burlington, a few months after being diagnosed with cancer.
He was 79.
"He was always quite the character, and he will leave a big hole in our family," Pabst's brother-in-law, Leon Duntley, said Wednesday from his home in Florida.
Pabst was best known in the area as captain of the Juniper, the lovable delivery scow turned party boat that toured Lake Champlain for a quarter century from the mid-1970s to the early 2000s.
Each Friday and Saturday night during the summer, the Juniper was packed with partiers taking part in what became known in local circles as the "Booze Cruise."
"The steaks always seemed to taste better on that boat, for some reason," said Jack LaDuke, former longtime WCAX-TV Channel 3 reporter, who covered Pabst for 30 years.
Pabst was at home in the wheelhouse of his tug, piloting the ship around his beloved lake and pointing out the rich history that breathed in each swell that splashed against the crusty hull.
"I think he must have been re-incarnated. He was probably alive during the Battle of Plattsburgh because he knew so much about it," said David Mayette, an avid fisherman and longtime friend of Pabst.
"He knew the lake inside and out and always had a good story to tell."
Aside from running the Juniper, Pabst was involved in numerous side businesses. A diver, he was often hired to do salvage jobs on underwater projects. His Juniper was also used for many other lake projects from Rouses Point to Ticonderoga.
He also ran a popular restaurant at the corner of Bridge Street and City Hall Place in the late 1980s known as the Captain's Table.
When customers asked if he took credit cards, he told them, "Are you kidding? I invented plastic."
From the restaurant window, he hosted a show on a local radio station, where he spoke his mind on a variety of topics.
"Frank usually said what he felt, and it came out of his mouth with little editing," LaDuke said.
"But he was a very warm-hearted person who did a lot of nice things for people."
Pabst's biggest love was the history of the lake. He was instrumental in discovering and retrieving the anchor from the British warship Confiance, which was defeated by the U.S. Navy in the Battle of Plattsburgh on Sept. 11, 1814. The anchor is now displayed in City Hall.
He also helped discover and recover a well-preserved bateau from the battle and many other artifacts.
"Without him, we would not be aware of much of the history of the lake," said Plattsburgh City Clerk Keith Herkalo, who is president of the Battle of Plattsburgh Association.
"We are going to miss him. He was a North Country treasure."
Pabst chronicled his knowledge in a book entitled "Cannons and Anchors," published in 2005.
A stout man with shaggy gray hair and a bushy mustache that sat perfectly under his silver-rimmed glasses and spouting language befitting a salty sea captain, Pabst stood out in a crowd.
"When you were with Frank you knew you were going to be entertained," LaDuke said.
A crafty businessman, Pabst once got out of a sticky wicket with the City Zoning Board of Appeals, which questioned some nocturnal activities at his lakefront business yard.
Pabst wasn't supposed to have tenants in some of the trailers he had down there, and the Zoning Board wanted answers.
He deftly told board members that the people in question were not tenants, but night watchmen he had hired to prevent thievery.
The Zoning Board bought it — and Pabst gave the Press-Republican reporter a nod and a wink as he left the meeting room.
In the 1990s, the appearance of his boat yard was often a source of confrontation between him and then-Mayor Clyde Rabideau, who wanted the place cleaned up.
The entreaties from the mayor frustrated Pabst, who noted that the boat yard was next to the city's Water Pollution Control Plant and was not necessarily in desperate need of sprucing up.
"I'm next to a s—- plant, not a rose garden, for crying out loud," Pabst groaned.
Herkalo said that while Pabst may have been a bit gruff, his heart was always in the right place.
"I always thought of him as a guy who needed a leash, but you didn't have any bigger supporter of the North Country," Herkalo said.
Pabst was an avid supporter of the Boy Scouts and worked tirelessly at the soup kitchen at Trinity Church in downtown. Since 1994, he has helped organize the cleaning of the soup kitchen on Martin Luther King Jr. Day as part of a day of service.
"Mr. Pabst had many, many contributions to our community over the years, and he will certainly be missed," said Mayor Donald Kasprzak, who knew Pabst for 30 years.
"He was one of our most colorful characters and had so many great stories."
Funeral arrangements were still being put together by the family Wednesday.
