Wine, honey and...
So, since I took the day off the go to the doctor and Bruce's freelance job was cancelled, he corralled me into doing a bunch of home stuff.
Bruce's bees have done so well the past year that he has started a 2nd hive. Each one of the "floors" on the bee hive apartment building is called a "super" (why I have NO idea). He recently took a super off one of his hives and today he was extracting the honey. We did this last fall and got about 30 lbs from one super (those little bees are pretty darn industrious).
Afterwards he decided we needed to bottle the Zinfandel and the Malvaise Black that had been going thru their 2nd fermentation. We bottled 31 Zinfandel and 20 MB. Perfect since he had only sterilized 60 bottles!
Sunday we are going to a picnic and I promised to bring homemade wine. YUM!

Rainy Days = Packed Subways
Unless you commute in NY you haven't lived - or regretted living as the case may be. On rainy days when it's too wet to walk to the P.A. I have to take the #1 subway. I think this underground passageway was featured in the subway scene in "An American Werewolf in London".
