Well, that wasn't a very good start, was it? A post in January and nothing since then. Sigh.

I finished knitting the shawl last week. I haven't woven in the ends or blocked it yet. These things take time!

Tom and I been busy following our fave Celtic music groups: Hair of the Dog, Glengarry Bhoys, and Hadrian's Wall. Saw HW at the Parting Glass last night. They came up to our table to say "Hi!". We're such groupies. lol

The wine that we bottled in February is just starting to really taste good. We've brewed several batches of beer since then - our favorite being a single malt scotch ale. We bottle our second batch yesterday. Today we're bottling a reisling that we made from a kit that had juice from grapes grown in Washington state. The wine will be ready around Thanksgiving. We had a taste of it at the homebrewer's store and it was very good. While we're bottling, we'll have some of one of my fave: Glennora Reisling.

Pics to come soon.
