Apple Cider Vinegar.
I just tasted the ACV I start making last week, well its apple cidar in the makings at the moment, the vingar part will start happening when I take the apple scraps out... it is YUMMY, it still has a way to go, but coming along nicely.
This vinegar making is so easy and fun to do. Its probably just as well I only have 3 or 4 bottles i can use to make it, as it is, I have things brewing and fermenting here and there.
I'd really love to have a go at vinegar with other fruits, I have a very tasty plum and blueberry, and since almost everything is ready for harvest, but it will have to be next year now, but I can dream, apricot and/or peach would be lovely I reckon, and i will definitely have a try with any fruit I can get...I will have sussed out all the fruit tree's in Waihi, by this time next year
I have a friend locally that has a fig tree, so will have to have a try at fig vinegar this year. I've never heard of it before, but heck, not like its going to cost me anything but some time.
Oh, I just thought, I have a couple of crockpots here, I could ferment vinegar in them..... oh, cool, will have to see if i can score some apples or fruit over the weekend.... oh I'm all excited, its 1am and just realised i can ferment more stuff, so much for sleeping tonight lol...

Remember a few weeks ago, I was moaning about fly's and how annoying they are this year, I think I have found the smell they don't like... Lavender
I had some lavender essential oil here and read yesterday, how insects don't like the smell of it. So put a couple of drops on my chair this morning, and flies aren't coming anywhere near me.... yahhh...

First thing this morning, my neighbour brought me a big supermarket bag of feijoas.
I have been sitting here for almost 3 hours, thinking, eat them, or make them into vinegar. Eating would be lovely now, but vinegar would last longer, and I would know what it tasted like... but might not be so good, then I've wasted first feijoas I have had in a few years... what to do, what to do...
..... then bombshell DOH.... I can do both, only need the skins of feijoas and small ones for vinegar, so yah, I'm going to eat them....
I'm so intelligent, its amazing I can be so thick at times. lol

So I decide to have an early night. I get all settled in bed, then my imaginary friends start arguing about the wording on a Meme I saw about a month ago... they aren't going to shut up, and I can't remember what the meme said... so I'm awake until they forget about it..
