    Thought we should try a bottle tonight....well the half the bottle that isn't on the ceiling and spread all over the kitchen is lovely! Guess who's going to be washing a very sticky kitchen ceiling tomorrow!

    :D

    (oooh....and it's very, very potent stuff!)

    I want to come for a party at your house :D

    I'd be interested in how you made it - I have a load of stewed fruit taking up space in the freezer as well as 2 bags of frozen tropical fruit.
    :D"Stay Wonky":D

  • blimey - just had a bit of chicken from the pan to check it was cooked through and I can now see my breath there is such a difference in temperature!!

    The 3 very large vodka and juices must be keeping me artificially warm as I haven't got the heating on! Have to say though my toes are freezing!

    Why Linda?

    Well I'm watching the Kirstie's Christmas program that I recorded yesterday, she is making some lovely soaps and smellies and these hideous blokes are using the mention of 'smellies' to have a farting contest. :mad:

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    I am free Sal-are you????

    You coming for a visit??!?!?!

    Sorry B up crying and uncontrolable

    we are coming to the outlaws yes...Im not entirely sure what the plan is, B was due to go swimming and piano in the morning but now she has conjunctivitus she can't really go. So I guess we will leave to come up and be there around lunchtime, will do the rounds and back to OH's sisters. I might then be able to escape in the evening but it depends on B really. Sorry I can't be any clearer than that

    I'd be interested in how you made it - I have a load of stewed fruit taking up space in the freezer as well as 2 bags of frozen tropical fruit.

    It was all bunged in a large brewing bucket (with lid)...added a kilo of sugar and enough water to make it up to 2 gallons, a teaspoon of "pectolase" (breaks down the pectin and stops it turning to jam)...a teaspoon of brewing yeast and left it for about 10 days in a constant temperature (the kitchen)....then strained off all the pulp and bottled the liquid into sterilized 2litre fizzy drinks bottles (you need strong bottles!!) You let the bottles go firm - takes about a day in a warm room...then they're up to pressure, then pop in a cold room or fridge to stop the brewing process.

    Sounds more complicated than it actually is but the end result is lush!
