    Your Opinions on this ribbon...

    I prefer the solid dark brown one. I like it for the dark vs. light contrast it provides without being overpowering.

    Canning and preserving...

    I was taught how to preserve by my father. I especially like to make red fruit jelly from things like strawberries, cherries, blackberries and the lot. Another thing I happen to like is making rumtopf. As the name suggest it includes rum. Basically you can take any type of fruit you like as long...

    Hat Wearers: You're Just Trying to Be Don Draper. Stop It.

    I am a man. And depending on whom you ask I am a bit mad, so I guess I am already a mad man. So what if I like Fedora's? Fortunately style and fashion aren't the same thing.

    The Old Fashioned

    I do like a good Old Fashioned every now and then. I take mine with soda to add just a little sparkle but that is all personal taste. The IBA recipe made with rye whiskey is my preference, here it is: Ingrediënts: 4.0 cl rye whiskey 1 sugar cube 2 dashes of Angosture bitters 1 splash of...

    Hats In The Car/A Newbie Question

    I usually have trouble wearing hats in cars since I am 6.2". My current car is an Audi RS4 which isn't exactly renowned for having much headroom in the first place. Most European sedans I've driven wouldn't allow for proper hatwearing because of the headrest anyway so that's to bad. I am still...

    Spats are back - and I'm horrified!

    OH the horror. What is seen cannot be unseen unfortunately. And I was once so fond of my retina's. After seeing such an atrosity one would almost want to scrub ones eyes with bleach. There is a difference between quirky and looking like a three year old who may dress himself for the very first...

    "Where there's tea, there's hope"

    I am very fond of Silver Needles. It's a white tea produced in the Fuding and Zhenhe districts in the province of Fujian. I really like the subtle flavours a lot. In terms of caffeine it doesn't have much to offer but if I want caffeine I'll just grab a cup of coffee. My other favourite would...

    The "Pleasing Phrase" Thread

    I've grown quite fond of the expression "to make the bee line for the bakers dozen" People used to believe that bees flew in a straight line for their hive. So making a bee line is going straight for something. A bakers dozen means thirteen. This is believed to be coming from the time when...

    Self confessed hat addict checking in

    No offense taken. I wouldn't exactly chose a lawyer pulling up on a skateboard myself. However as stated I am still merely a student and what I wear differs per day. I presumed (just goes to show how dangerous presumptions are) it would be obvious that what I wear is determined by what I have to...

    Self confessed hat addict checking in

    Hello and greetings to all. I thought it polite to introduce myself ( I have rarely seen such a well-behaved forum by the way, hats off for that). I am a law student nearing graduation a rather fond longboard skateboarding. So that's quite the two worlds apart really. One day I will be wearing a...
