In the last couple of weeks, I have bottled pear, blueberry, rhubarb, and pineapple wine. It has seriously depleted my bottle stock and I just realized that I have about 20 gallons currently in secondary ferementation (apricot, peach, raspberry, bing cherry, and lapin cherry) . That means I will need about 100 bottles in a couple of months and right now I only have 10 bottles. and I haven't picked any blackberries yet. and I am still thinking about more Peach. the stuff I made tastes really good and the peaches look really good right now.
So....I am putting the call out to family and friends to save their wine bottles. Just rinse them out and we will take care of getting the labels off.
A little nervous on this request because our family and friends really know how to drink wine and I could end up with a garage full of bottles.
As for what we are up to.....We just spent the weekend at Stretch Island with the Nyland families. Jess brought his friend Hayden and we spent a lot of time in the water. The cove was so warm I didn't need my wet suit. Joe is coming back from the Grange Camp and we will have a barbecue with the Traxels tonight. Jess has left for Scout camp at Camp Parsons so we will be missing our baby sitter this week. Joe will spend most of the week in Tacoma with Nana or Gerrit so we will be kidless. Thursday I am going to camp for a couple of days and then we will have Max and Henry next weekend.
