Chocolate and legs

Hi everyone – I hope you all had a fantastic Easter – or at least some very nice time off work, if Easter is not your bag.


Personally I can’t type well because my fingers are too fat.

So this will be short.

Very short.

All I will say is that I have spent a long weekend with almost everyone in the World that matters to me - playing, eating chocolate, drinking and eating chocolate again.

The Sun has shone and the BBQ has worked damned hard.

I even showcased my Homebrew to much applause – well no one was sick, which I took to be applause. To be fair, I was the only one to have a 2nd glass, but I’m pretty sure they liked it.

The Homebrew ale was a present for my birthday and had been the cause of much amusement in our house as it slowly fermented in the corner of the kitchen. Nobody believed in me. Especially me.

But here I am, on a sunny Easter Sunday, holding a pint of my very own ale.

Happy Easter.

P.S. Sorry about my legs.

I don't drink but I have a feeling I might actually try that home brew.

Hi Glen - you need to learn to pour it a bit better - too much head on that pint :-)

Your Homebrew looks almost like a caramel Guinness! I bet it tasted great with chocolate. :-)

Well done you. I bought the husband a homebrew kit for his 40th last November. It's still in the cupboard under the stairs!

Glen said...

Cate - it did look like ale, it also tasted a bit like ale.

Cheeseboy - you couldn't pick a worse pint to start on!

Soph thanks and still in the box - it will put hairs on your chest!

OMS - yeah not too bad an idea that

Barbara - it took a lot of head scratching and instruction reading.

Oh and Glen - oh deary me Glen.

I am from a land so very far away where grass is pronounced grass rather than grarse, laugh is laff not larfe and beer comes complete with a proper head on it.

Yes I am of Northern stock - and I'm not ashamed of it.

Well, North Midlands anyway...

You don't look a day over 40 ...

And 'home brew' are two words dear to every Aussie's heart.

So glad you had a great Easter!!

Thanks Red - I think!
