The Great Mulled Wine Experiment of 2008!
Well, christmas was pretty damn good!
i was a bit disappointed that i didnt get to go to canberra this year because of work. i'll be doing my best to fix that for 2009 i guess!
now, i wanted to mention the great mulled wine expeirment. i'm glad to say it was a complete success! the recipe itself was simple as, the hardest bit being grating the orange for the zest. it was:
2 red apples - roughly chopped, 2 oranges - zested, 2 nutmegs - ground, 4 quills of cinnamon, 20 cloves, 1/2 cup of caster sugar, 2 cups of water, 2 bottles of wine. combine all ingredients but wine, bring to boil then simmer for 10 minutes. then add wine and simmer for 5. strain and serve.
it was AWESOME! tasted just like it should, and everyone loved it. complete success :D
****
moving along, new years. now we've hda an invite or two, but we really arent sure what to do...so i'm wondering, of you folks out there who may/may not read what i write, who will be in sydney on new years?
safe to say the people who live in sydney will be here :P
