This is my question. Thanks for all the suggestions! I see I'm going to have a lot of recipes to read through to figure out what I'm going to make this weekend. Hopefully I won't have eaten it all by the time I get around to baking. =)

I'd second Rogue's Hazlenut Brown. Super smooth, fantastic flavor. One of my favorites. Rogue's Chocolate Stout is also awesome and good for the non-beer drinker.

Sierra Nevada Summerfest is a good pilsner style lager too, though I agree that I might not put a pilsner in front of a beer hater. It took me a little bit to get into them and I'm a beer lover.

I just made the malted milk sandwich cookies from Baked Explorations and they are AMAZING.

I think it's kind of laughable that people talk about Whole Foods like it's some sort of champion of the local farmer. I live in San Diego and last time I went there I couldn't find any oranges or avocados from Southern California. Whole Foods has some pretty sketchy labor practices too.

Lagunitas has a limited edition bourbon barrel beer that's very tasty, Ruben & the Jets. I had it when I visited the brewery in early August. There's a lot going on flavor-wise - you can definitely taste the bourbon - but it all blends together really well. If you like dark beers. And bourbon, of course.

Everything from Lagunitas is pretty awesome though, and I highly recommend their brewery tour if you're ever in the North Bay. Free lots of delicious, free beer samples great tap room.

I try to make five sandwiches to take to work for lunch during the week all on Sunday night - I can do a sandwich assembly line, then not worry about finding something to grab in the morning when I'm too tired to make anything.

Awesome, great contest!
