RE: A Bit on Yarrow and other June Day Busyness
Great post. Do you cook with Yarrow or is for external uses? I dig the grapes growing all over your deck! That's great. Do you make wine with them?

Thank you! I have used yarrow in teas, but not to cook with. In a tea, it is very calming to the nerves. I used to make wine but since I do not drink any more, I mostly just turn these into juice for making a natural soda with or for eating fresh. :)
I usually have a glass of wine with dinner but I think the sulfates give me a headache a lot of the time. Maybe someday I'll make my own preservative free wine from my own organic grapes.
Can't beat homemade wine from your own organic fruits! My favorite i made was raspberry mead. SO good!
I bet. Sometimes that homemade wine gets strong too.
Yep! haha!
It was a good post. I resteemed
Much appreciated!
I agree with you on the sulfates. I never use them in my wine making, I just keep feeding the yeast until it dies of alcohol poisoning. I made a batch of apple mead last year that has somewhere around 18% alcohol due to the yeast I used. I mix it with apple juice when I drink it.
Wow 18%! That's somewhere between beer and vodka lol.
