My mouth is watering just seeing the pasta. ♥

You would be right! It is snowing today again, and I wonder when it will stop. It is getting very deep.

It sure has, Jay. I can't remember the last time we had this much snow and deep cold. It's still snowing today too. Hope you are not getting all this weather too much.

Glad you got to do the elderberries. Those old chimes are so cool, and I bet they sound awesome too. It's snowing again today and heavily. Sigh....

It's so good and you can use whatever fruit you desire for the 2nd ferment. Thank you for the reblog @kaminchan, I still miss your posts, ;-)

I get it! At our ages we don't get up like we used to. ;-)

My goodness, you made a granny angel, lol. At least the snow was fluffy. Getting back up would be a hoot for me, I don't know how well you managed but they might have found me stuck on the ground. I need

Oh, my goodness! You really did have a run of troubleshooting for January. I couldn't help but laugh at you trying to get the shower gel off. That must have been interesting to say the least. May your
