Happy Monday. \u00a0We spent the better part of our weekend unpacking and moving, so I’m a bit lacking in any type of informative update. \u00a0Even more so than usual, that is. \u00a0We went out Friday I suppose, to the recently opened Hop House<\/a> in El Dorado Hills. \u00a0It’s a nice place, I see a bit of potential for it, but it could use a few adjustments. \u00a0For starters, I could definitely suggest a few tweaks to their beer list\u00a0if they asked. \u00a0(Which, remarkably, they haven’t.) \u00a0There are too many great local beers around here to be carrying some of the over-hyped big names they’ve opted for, and they don’t have that many taps to begin with. \u00a0Probably my biggest gripe is the glassware though. \u00a0They pour all their pints in Mason jars. \u00a0This may have struck someone as a quaint idea on paper, but it just doesn’t work. \u00a0They don’t pour right, they don’t drink right… \u00a0They just ain’t right. \u00a0They need to just throw those out and get some proper pints. \u00a0(Right after they throw out that gawd-awful website design.) \u00a0It’s definitely a nice place to stop by for a one-and-out though, and if you’re hungry their overpriced burgers are right\u00a0on par, or better, with\u00a0all the other nearby overpriced burgers. \u00a0If I hadn’t been so spoiled by the Bier Station<\/a> in Waldo I’d probably be downright fond of it.<\/p>\n

Outside of that somewhat impromptu restaurant review, I’m short on material. \u00a0We’ve managed to get most of the Royals games on TV, so that’s provided us plenty of entertainment. \u00a0We still have no blinds in the house, so that provides the neighbors with plenty of entertainment. \u00a0It’s all coming together though. \u00a0I hope.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
