We blasted off for a lightning-fast weekend in Pittsburgh with one mission: drink too much beer (me) and headbang responsibly at Brewtal Beerfest. Mission accomplished. Andrea, already well underway with Isaac in her belly, proved she could still rally with the best of them (and by “rally” I mean eat soup dumplings like a champion).
Between pints (me) and power chords from one of our all-time favorite bands, Baroness, we wandered downtown, hit our must-have spot Everyday Noodles for soup dumplings, and hunted down some next-level Indian in the Strip District. All of this, of course, with Sholoh in tow, serving as our unofficial festival mascot and street-food inspector (and babysitter).
It was a blur of beer, bad ass riffs, and baby-in-progress, and honestly, I wouldn’t change a thing.
