It has been a minute since I posted - Shrimp with avocado salsa ~ delicious, fresh & easy!

Prayers and positive thoughts!

Consider entering a bottle or two :) If you love the B-2 our medals are kinda cool ;)

A fabulous competition and one has to love supporting an active wine club!

I used to whip to degas but now just let time do it for me. I really think I'm making better wine going the slow road :) I also think racking my wines with my AIO has been a game-changer - swear by that piece of equipment.

Excellent opportunity to get honest & quality feedback on your wines! Getting mine boxed up :)

I use FedEx and schedule a pick-up. We do a small amateur winemaking competition with our fair and charge $10 an entry but we only have medal and shipping costs so we almost break even. If we didn't get everything from food to event space donated there is no way we could stay at $10.

Hosted by a great group of people. Consider entering a bottle or two :)

I needed attractive, simple and quick to assemble and reasonably priced - these were/are perfect! They where a little cheaper several years ago though. ULTRAZINC 168 BOTTLE 7-SHELF WINE RACK, 36" W X 14" D X 64" H $132.99 Free Shipping

I have received fantastic feedback from this competition - some really great and some that made me take another look at my wine-making notes. I enter 2 competitions a year (3 if our forum hosts one) so I can get honest feedback on my wine making adventures....friends sugar coat from time to...

This is a fantastic competition! The feedback I have received is priceless!

i used 8 - cut in half and cleaned out but not too clean. Sprayed everything with starsan before I did anything. Dropped them into the secondary container and racked on top (I use the All In One Wine Pump - LOVE it). Let sit 10 days then racked, added priming sugar and bottled.

Bottled a pretty nice jalapeno beer - used a blonde ale base. Made my labels with my cricut to be frugal. Sampled it at a BBQ contest this past weekend and it got great reviews. I'll stick to wine but I do love making beer!

Year #2! Our competition is very intimate and though it is a fair fundraiser we want to stay on the smaller side for several more years (as the wine making bug spreads locally). We advertise very little - basically this forum is the largest advertising. In addition I love our medals - put a...

I think you can do just about anything with a cookie so why not groom cookies. I'm just getting started so I have a lot to learn and probably lots & lots of screwing up in my future ~ Pinterest and I will have to break up after Valentines Day though!

My new hobby is making & decorating cookies - so fun! Made these for my GFs bridal shower and I can't wait to dive into Valentines Day cookies :)

Whoohoo! Can't wait to see the full results because the one I thought was wicked awesome in my books didn't place so I'm anxious to see how it scored! Taste is subjective :)

Mine arrived today. I need to get going on doing nice labels someday. Thanks John!

I just soak in hot water and use a razor blade with a plastic shell thing so my fingers are safe and cramp free. I'm pretty good at label removal but anything that requires too much time gets recycled. Lucky for us we have a winery close by and they use the best bottles and their labels just...

Mine are packed and ready to ship when we get home on the 3rd! This year is all my cheap wine kits with tweaks :) Very excited to see how they score - could be good or very "not good" :)
