My brother ...Oh, man, this reminds me of a story... My brother and his best friend were still in high school when they decided to make some wine. His friend's bedroom was in the basement and that, coupled with the summer kitchen across the hall, made a perfect laboratory - with requisite privacy. One night the phone rang at our house in the middle of the night. It was the friend, who happened to live right next door, requesting the immediate presence of my brother. Seems the balloons had shot right off the jugs and sprayed red wine all over the walls and ceiling. Those two boys started painting the room white, like his mom had been trying to get him to do for months, and they finished sometime mid-morning. She was so proud of those boys for staying up all night to finally fulfill her request. It was sometime after the boys were of legal drinking age before either set of parents found out the real impetus for the late-night painting party.Charadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16461603001722068211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628662603932607754.post-65237304575925558822014-08-10T23:07:06.445-05:002014-08-10T23:07:06.445-05:00Be sure to check out The Meadery as well:

The worst was cantaloupe, I tried to drink it but ended up throwing it out. You should try making hard cider. It only has like three ingredients and is ready in about a month.

Our county is known as the moonshine capitol but the liquor nazis have hunted down and punished all the whiskey makers and while they busy harassing those terrible people, they let the meth people get established. Now they have a real problem. If they would just let people make whiskey for their own use and also make it easy to get a permit to sell it, things wouldn't be illegal. We have a variety of stills at work, the hammered copper is really pretty and some still have the sealing dough around them. We are a museum and have permits to own the things.Shouldn't be illegal to do what people have done for thousands of years should it.Sunnybrook Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18135224259672444423noreply@blogger.com
