MEAD MAKING

I first started making mead in 2006. It came out of a conversation with a friend about medieval things. One of which is mead or honey wine. My friend and I decided we wanted to give it a try. Well, we couldn't get any! After dozens of phone calls to local places (well, local as in within 50 miles) We made the decision that if we wanted to try mead we would have to make some ourselves and that is exactly what we did. That was five years and a hundred batches of mead ago. I still am making mead and always have a batch or two going. I now have also published a book to show other people how to make it: The Secret Art of Mead Making Revealed

My thoughts on Mead - It is a rather fine drink and quite a bit different than grape wines. It is sweeter and thicker, and more delicious in my opinion. It is a bit strange how it is not very well known but over the past few years it has grown in popularity and there are a lot more people drinking it and making it.

Terrarium Making

In the late 70's terrariums were a bit of a popular fad. I remember making a few of them both for personal interest and for a boy scout project. It was a memorable thing for me. And, it was part of the Mother Earth movement where the country consciousness was turning more toward a respect and stewardship of the Earth.

Well, a lot of years passed and then one day in 2005 I was thinking about what projects I would like to make for my website and the thought of a terrarium just popped. Wow, a lot of fun and an interesting little project. So I went ahead and did a tutorial on how to make a terrarium. I used a couple of old books that I had as resource material.

Since then I have created tutorials on all kinds of terrariums including desert themes, miniature terrariums, and even how to put a terrarium inside a light bulb. I really enjoy the process of making and caring for a terrarium.

While I do make terrariums that are traditional I very much have a fondness for unusual terrariums and this means either unusual containers, unusual plants or unusual arrangements. The picture here shows a terrarium inside a tabasco bottle.
