What R you doing today?

[Brian]

Well since I haven't been around a much because of no time with the new job... (but I am loving it) I have been quite busy but the best thing is we went up to Lake George NY last week for Americade. That has to be the best place in the world to ride. I enjoy it every year.. Of course my family still lives there so that makes it exta special.. I also ordered my choc rasberry port yesterday.. can't wait. I tried it at one of our wine club meeting and it was awesome.. Looking forward to making my own..

Brian, I didn't think that was available until in the fall. Did you order online? That is a WE kit right?

Later this week I am going to take my wife up to Arlington (between Dallas and Ft Worth) for a sewing convention. So either Thursday or Friday I am making my first pilgrimage to FVW. I have saved up a few buck$ and emailed
George to make sure I go on a day he will be there. And my wife thinks I am doing this huge sacrifice driving her the 300 miles to her convention. Life is good!

We voluntered our baby sitting services today so my son and DIL could get some time out together. It didn't work out as planned because Ken was on call and had to go in to the hospital. So Naghmeh dropped Maya off around 1130AM and went out for some time by herself. Then they both showed up around 4PM or so and we enjoyed hamburgers and Italian sausage along with Itsuko's potato salad and some corn on the cob. And we had a nice mixed berry swirl cheesecake for desert. Ken and I tossed the football back and forth like we did when he was young. Just a great Father's day.

Brian, have you read up on the making of this kit? It is probably the most troublesome kit to make and actually finish fermenting but either way its an awesome tasting wine kit. I have a 3 gallon batch that needs bottling as we speak. Id search and read up the threads or posts before starting it if you havent yet.

Stopped at Premier Produce on the way into work and picked up 300 corks and an new glass 5 gallon carboy. I'll pick up 2 more before fall and I should be good for allowing stuff to bulk age a little longer.

Got the lawn cut before the rain arrives here and sticks around for the rest of the week. Then I roasted 6 lbs of green coffee beans on my grill. 3 lbs of Tanzania Ruvuma AA and 3 lbs of Nicaraugua FT. They came out looking pretty good.

We visit Tonawanda yearly!! Headed that way in Aug. Do you always roast your own coffee? I know a guy that used a hot air popper to do it. He says it's the most consistent way. I don't drink coffee... but love the smell!!

Ok I have to admit I had no idea what a Nook Color was and thought you ment some kind of cooler until you said she could take it with her. So I did a search on Amazon. WOW, she is going to love it. My wife has the Kindle and reads it everyday. Way to go!!!

Yeah she's a Librarian so I could not think of a better gift!

I started roasting a couple years ago a couple of different ways but I didn't like the small quantities that I ended up with. Right now a 5 lb drum on a rottiserie with a souped up motor on the grill has been working out ok. I like being able to try different kinds of beans and see what is good out there.
