Wait, I think I'm quite refreshing

As a 'hobby' my husband has made wine for years. They had a whole operation set up in my sister-in-law's basement in Budd Lake.

The past two years they've been making wine in a more 'structured' way.
Six of them go to Winemakers of NJ (Somerset, NJ) - think their are a few
different locations...

oh no - I'll be back ---

paul giglio

Ok, I'm going down for some more cabernet..wait what millions???

Oh the pictures, kids, grandkids, you don't want to wait for me to do that, tomorrow????

paul giglio

What happened???

francesca

Can't believe the f....ing show. It ends with a husband bringing his newly born baby in to meet her mother - the mother is dead. Sick.... and I'm watching.. Glad I'm all cried-out - that would have knocked me for a loop
normally.

THE WINE: There are a few different places that you can make wine (from previous: corrected my their to there, Mrs. Spellman). You choose the grapes and they notify you on when you can come in and process, a few times through the year. It's fun for them - but this was the last year.

The wine is mediocer - probably equivalent to $9 bottle of wine (my guess). We drink it; sometimes it is the second bottle.
Not like the homemade wine our grandfathers and uncles made. That
would knock you on your ass.. but it was good too.


So, In conclusion.... What's great about Frank's wine making- because of this, I met Frank. So the moral of the story - it's good to be a wino.

Signed,
Francesca

GOOD NIGHT, Paul and All

Sorry for the double - post. I plead the 5th!


Everyone - sleep well~

paul giglio

OK, I thought someone got hurt....but it was only the F...ING SHOW!

Lotta wine here too Franny, the recycler?? picked up this morning after two days of thanksgiving drinking and I could hear him cursing, funny part is I could'nt get all the bottles in two barrels.

paul giglio

Good Night, and seriously I'm very happy about you're results today

francesca

I always said - you can tell alot about people by their recycle.
Ours: wine bottles, bottled water, LOTs of selzer cans & mucho beer cans (Frank). Life!

Good Night! Please tell Ellen she is so beautiful! I would have never recognized her; guess it's too many years.. I did pick up my new glasses
today so I don't think it's my eyes.. Either way, give her a big hug for me.

Just ocurred to me - Is that your daughter? I'm not hanging around to hear your answer....
Yes, that's it.... She must have Ellen's genes.

paul giglio

I'll post some pictures tomorrow that way no one will ever come back here because their bored to death. LOL

I'll tell Ellen what you said and I'm sure she'll be happy to hear it...by the way you're not exactly chopped liver yourself kiddo...goodnight

paul giglio

It just dawned on me, stop telling her that crap...I have to live with her!

paul giglio

OK, I'm going to wait 15 mins, if no one comes back, I'm convinced I have successfully chased everyone away or you all have moved to a different site, thanks for your help Franny

paul giglio

6 mins, going on amazon to get some Christmas presents for the kids

guzzo here

I did and cried. And said "Thank You for Everything"
(I was one of his success stories, and my husband would say - I 'make his day' going in there all bubly - imagine all the other scenerio's he deals with that aren't so happy).

OK - enough of that... Tis the Season to be Jolly xxxx

Merry Day to All --- See You Along the Way!!!

Morning Ladies.

janet m horan

I took a night off the blog last night. I was cold and tired. Both go hand in hand with me, so I laid down and watched TV until I fell asleep.

millie d.

Hey, it is hard to get rid of that chill.
Try apple cider with honey and heat it up.

janet m horan

I had Hot Chocolate and it helped. After a little while, I was really warm but still tired.
