Adventures in Wine-Making, Day Two. Finally.

Step One:

Open the bucket:

Don't worry, the future wine only looks brown for the first day or so, and even then only after you stir it. You really should remember to take the picture before you stir it. But you do deserve credit for finally rememberin to take the picture at all. So congratulations!

Oh, yeah.

Step Two:

Stir it.

Step Three:

Add the yeast.

Try not to dump it all right on top of the bag of pulp, if you can help it, because...

Step Four:

For god's sake, DON'T STIR IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just let it sit there and mellow until it starts to make itself at home. Smell that? That's yeast farts.



That means it's time to put the cover on and walk away.

Yeah, apparently I talk like a baby when I know I'm being videoed. I almost didn't put it up for that reason, but then I remembered nobody reads this blog anyway.

Johnny didn't know he was being videoed. He just thought I was taking pictures. otherwise he would have avoided using the F word.

NOT!

I wondered if he knew...Tricky!
I sound like a twelve year old all the time, so whatever.

It's fun to know Johnny won't censor himself!

PS: My parents have that electric fly swatter thingy you see in the background, and absolutely love it. They had to buy one for each of them.

My favorite quote is from Johnny.. "Its startin to feed." As if the yeast is a shark in the tub or something and violence will ensue. The weird movie sounds in the background give it a very ominous feel.
