Japan to brew space station beer

Japanese brewer Sapporo announced plans to brew beer with barley from the International Space Station using the offspring of barley that once called the International Space Station home.

South Korea’s first astronaut, Yi So-Yeon, brought kimchi into space last month, while Japan has previously sent noodles into orbit. Some day we may have space noodles and space kimchi to look forward to with our space beers? Mmmm mmmmm good.

Amelia's Bistro, Bellbrook, restaurant review [review]

Call it comfort food, gourmet style. From crab raviolis with vanilla lobster sauce, to a hand-cut and brined pork chop served with a fig jam, to a simply "Big-Ass Cake" that's a chocolate lover's dream, Amelia's has the potential to become a destination restaurant — worth the drive to Bellbrook.
