I made a recipe out of my new book, “Successful winemaking at home,” the “carrot whiskey. In point of fact, it’s a wine made from carrots, plus 4 pounds of sugar, some wheat, some raisins, plus oranges and lemons. So, it’s 100% weird, if not 100% carrot. It’s also not distilled. Don’t ask me, I just do the cooking. In any event, redmed has proposed that I add a product line to the “Sign of the Goat” brewery – the “fowl hooch” imprint. The logo may well be a chicken looking quizzically at a carrot, or something.
We got the skirting on the deck today, and purchased the remaining materials for the stairs. We abandoned the “cement pad” idea, and are instead going to simply tack the stringers to the ground. Wheeee. The dude at Home Depot managed to irritate me by proposing an entirely different approach and then reproaching me because I was buying the wrong things for his solution. Yeah, see … I’ve already got it half built, my way, buddy …
Also primed the fence on the East side of the property. The clean paint job really highlights how far those neighbors have let their house go. Maybe it’ll just fall down or something … though that usually takes a few more years from what I’ve seen.
People are coming over tomorrow to play with power tools and hang out. Come on down.
