I've got this thing about the wine and cider we make. Can't just call it "White Wine" or "Apple Cider".....too dull....so instead, every batch we do is name after a cat that has adopted my garden as its second home. So, today we bottled "Cordelia's Concord Cordial" ....
.........and "Spencer's Smoky Cider" after the two young ones .....
The best part of today was dropping off a couple of bottles at their homes when we were done. Just because. Never actually met their humans before. It was fun. It was different. I highly recommend it, just because.
And now the larder is full. Full of wine we will never drink. And that's the funniest part.
These labels I did before we knew Cordelia's name...so just called the batch "White Cat Wine".
Here is the wine, at Willow Point Wines,ready to be siphoned into bottles.
Making labels is one of the coolest parts.
Full bottle of Cordelia's Wine. Grape vines that she sleeps in when it is warmer.
Filling.......
Bottles in freezer ready for Cider.The bottles have to be very chilled.
Filling bottles with "Spencer's Smoky Cider"
Bubbling to the top and over...........................
....and of course, then there's Grey Cat ( not sure of his name.....have yet to find out):
There he is. Sitting on the back porch. Waiting patiently for his treat.
A nice gift: housewarming, birthday, anniversary, friends, and just because......
