AAASTINKIE is HERE!!

[AAASTINKIE]

The Cascade hops I planted last year are growing like crazy!! I planted 7 more hops roots this year by the deck.

 

[AAASTINKIE]

Miss Lilly, my granddaughter is here for a visit, I moved some wood to expose the snow insulated underneath.

 

[rgecaprock]

She is so cute!!!!

 

[grapeman]

You should have a good crop of hops this year Frank. Lilly is just adorable- but I still can't get used to the hair color kids use these days! She looks like she has hair for a bright spring morning to hide in the flowers-maybe the lilacs.

I agree as she is a cutie and we want to see some pics of hops when theyre full grown.

 

[AAASTINKIE]

Lilly's mom is a hairdresser, and it is bright hair...lol

 

[AAASTINKIE]

I also have a new grandson, Russ.

Is that a Trillium Miss Lilly has in her hand???? Is it a native one that comes in that color or one you planted????

The trilliums are native and grow all over my property like weeds, I have 47 acres so that's a lot of weeds!!...lol


PS I have only seen red ones here so far.Edited by: AAASTINKIE

Frank, she looks like a garden fairy!!!!


My dad has pictures of me about that age in the woods in WV in the trilliums. They were white. Hope I can find that picture someday.


I can almost see her wings!!!!!

I found a batch of Mexican Cerveza that was over carbonated, just dumped it all, didn't have any explosions or leaks. The caps were all puffed up.

 

[PolishWineP]

You poor thing! Didn't even taste it?

 

[AAASTINKIE]

Just a little too much carbonation...

 

[AAASTINKIE]

 

[Joanie]

Oh my goodness!!! How much yeast did you use, Frank?

 

[PolishWineP]

Oh Frank! I hope no terrorists get your recipe!

 

[AAASTINKIE]

I've been working on wines and beer all day, racked the Dandelion to the secondary.

 

[AAASTINKIE]

Oh Frank! I hope no terrorists get your recipe!

I wasn't paranoid enough to think about terrorists but I am now, going out to check the perimeter now!!

 

[AAASTINKIE]

I remember that batch wasn't fermenting fast enough, think it finished in the bottles, figured I better dump it before the bottles started popping.
