Food for Thought

Non-Alcoholic Beer Is Alcoholic

In spite of the name, non-alcoholic beer does contain some alcohol (up to 0.5 percent) as a result of the way that it's produced.

Just like real beer, non-alcoholic beer is brewed using malted grain and hops. However, at the end of the brewing process, measures are taken to reduce the alcohol content of the mixture.

Commonly, beer is gently heated under reduced pressure. Because ethanol (alcohol) has a lower boiling point than water, more ethanol evaporates than water, resulting in a lower alcohol content for the final product. However, the process of heating the mixture adversely affects the taste of the beer.

Alternatively, alcohol can be filtered from the brewed liquid by forcing it through a membrane at high pressure. Anheuser-Busch brews O’Doul’s using this method. Although heat is not applied in this process, filtered beers such as O’Doul’s don't have any flavor advantage over other non-alcoholic beers like Kaliber, Clausthaler or Buckler, which are produced using evaporation techniques.

I have commented on Tracy's Blog. Very relatable.

Words to Express

Shopping with absolutely NO MONEY!!! Yesterday I went the mall and was just browsing.... BEHOLD two hundred dollars spent at Express!! I couldn't beleive it. I was so upset with myself, and the worst part of it all is that I used my fiances credit card, Express card, and since it's limit just got increased I think I went a little over board. See, it's so easy to spend there because everything costs an arm and a leg, but I shopped for no reason, just because. Maybe I'm exaggerating, but money is money and I think I'm more shocked that I spent that much for no reason. I don't know, I seem to have a shopping problem though. You guys should watch that movie "Confessions of a Shopaholic," that's me, just a bit milder, since I don't live in New York and I really did cut up all MY OWN credit cards. So sad, but I love to shop.

Commenting on Sarah's Blog

<3 Sarah's Blog, Can't say I've had an experience like hers, EXACTLY, but I've had experiences with house projects.

100%

I just took my first quiz and received a 100% YAY!!!! I really don't know how to work the online courses yet, but I think I'm figuring it out. I'm excited about school. My financial aid didn't go through and that was a little frustrating. I called yesterday evening and they said I was disqualified for this semester because last semester I wasn't registered. Now I have to pay for my classes myself. Luckily I rented my books from Ghegg.com, I think everyone should use this site for college textbooks, and they were really cheap. That's it for now, I think I'm getting use to this blogging thing. It rminds me of Julie and Julia, the movie. Feeling better today.

First Day of School

The first day back to school in awhile has been very stressful. I'm excited about coming back to school, but I have so much going on in my life. I want to do well, and STOP my PROCRASTINATION!!!! Maybe that should have been my New Year's Resolution, but I don't believe in New Year's Resolutions because they never work (at least for me they don't). So I'll just make it a goal.

New to Blogging

I'm not exactly sure how to blog, but I'm assuming you just write daily on thoughts and ideas you have. I'm excited to start this, but very confused.
