Egg storage

I used to keep the eggs always in the fridge, now since i soon get them daily laid from Heidi, Gudrun and Emer, I will store them outside, nicely in a wooden box.

Got the Box in a Local Store, Tom Sheehy's for around 12 Euro, not too bad price for the Quality.

According to plan ?

In an earlier post i revealed the plan for the chicken house, which should be integrated to the compost.

Well, now its time to compare, how that project turned out to be:
  the plan

  the result

Well, on the way I did some improvements, specially to the roof, which is now longer and protects against sun or rain. So, now it would be only good if the chickens appreciate my efforts and lay some eggs....

Hello Merlot, Servus European Lager....

Here we go, my first wine kit and so far so good, was pretty easy to add the grape juice and water in the fermenter, mix it, add oak chips, make readings and add yeast. Now its waiting time, wine takes about 30 days to be taste-able, than a other while to develop further.

In meantime a made a other batch of European Lager, i hope this time the flavor will be even better, but have to say that i am already quiet happy with the result of the last batch.

Soon its bottle cleaning time, to get the good liquid into a safe place for a little while.

How to fake where you are from ?

This German article of somebody i follow over at the AOWAO Blog made me think about the problem many people might face, living abroad but willing to watch something from home or overseas, but cant because of their IP address.

I while ago i wrote following manual, which should be still valid, how to use a simple proxy switcher addon to watch youtube videos if you get that prompt (Not available in your country).

Here the manual ,i hope that helps Markus ?

The Chickens arrived

Say hello to Heidi, Emer and Gudrun.
At the beginning they kind of scared of their new home, but i hope they will settle in shortly.

first sign to know you need chicken

There you go, no more eggs left in the fridge, time to get some chicken for myself. Lets see how that goes, off to the market.

Scary Lunch

The 4th time in a row my colleague at work has the exact same food than i do. Today spaghetti. I wonder how he always knows what i have the next day, does my wife have an affair ? :-)

Cool proposal

I had proposed through the telly in a 5 star hotel, but this guy have topped that, so cool and romantic, ladies who said there is no romantic man out there ?

Cleaning in process

Ordered 2 beer kits and one wine kit, so soon I start brewing / wine making again. As soon the weather gets bad, to bad for fishing or gardening.
Today i gave the brewing kit a fast clean, also setup the wine kit and gave the utility room a touch up.

Fishing Trip

At my last fishing trip somebody caught a little shark,
wanted to share that picture... (we released him of course)
