Kickass, the doorstop dog, reports that the keeper, having refused to accept Dec. 3, 2023 as unfit for human consumption, hastens to amend his rejection to exempt the afternoon’s repast by the keeper and Phyllis at the Cider Farm Cidery next to Brennen’s on Mineral Point Road.
Ever alert to developments in the world of brandy, the keeper found that the Cidery’s apple/brandy old fashioned coupled with John’s special brie/cranberry/bread plate, when accompanied by the sweet tones of the jazz trio, made it impossible to reject the entirety of the day.
Except for that pleasant Cidery interlude, however, the remainder of Dec. 3, 2023 is banked for next summer when its gray cold will be used to make ice for apple/brandy old fashioneds, probably at the Cider Farm Cidery.
