Getting It Done

It looks like, along with the Moon, the chaos is waning. It's time for a vacation.

Running around like a crazy person, I wrapped up some projects last night before my impending road trip to Cleveland to visit my dear friend, Batty, and other wicked awesome Primal peeps. It's a much needed break from work, the blog, planning Boarfest and applying for every scholarship under the sun.

I bottled the knotweed and dandelion wines last night. It's hard to say at this point how they'll turn out. They don't seem to be nearly as sweet as I remember homebrew wines being in the past, so it's making me a little nervous. The color is nice. The pink is the knotweed and the yellow is the dandelion. Right now they look a tad murky from the yeast and stuff floating around. Once it settles some I'll re-bottle into actual wine bottles and store them for the next year so that they can further clarify. Right now they're just so pretty though. I do sort of like that "creamy" look to them.

All I can say is, thank goodness for siphons!

My first batch of yogurt is done. There's not a ton of it yet, and not quite picture-worthy. I will be getting to this more in depth in the future, because it could quite possibly turn into a decadent frozen dessert. *nod* *nod*

Besides all that, I've been eating a crap ton of fiddleheads, and am giddy to say that I have a new gentleman in my world- so needless to say I've been a tad bit distracted. Hopefully he'll roll into the weird food fold with ease and embrace the yummy.

Oh yeah, and in case you haven't heard, the Rapture is coming this Saturday. It figures... I'll be in Cleveland.

Well, I suppose I better get the car loaded up and hit the road. Woohoo!
