Happy Christmas!

Happy Christmas!

Or happy whatever over eating festival you celebrate at this time of year. I hope you all have a nice break. I would like to thank anyone who reads this blog. I love writing it, it's nice to have a place to keep a record of all the crafty things I do. It's really great when someone comments on a post.

So I'll raise a glass, of homebrewed beer of course, to you reader over the festive season and I'll see you here for more brewing and knitting/crochet adventures in 2009.

In our house during December the Fat Bottomed Santa makes a majestic journey around the room dropping presents as he goes.

He crocheted our turtles some festive santa's helper hats...



He made Monkey a dapper new waistcoat



He helped with the brewing



He brought some festive brews



He also expressed a wish to see more handmade gifts in the world



Even the dog isn't forgotten

From The Fat Bottomed Santa's Majestic Christmas Journey


He's off tonight to make the final leg of his journey. He's been quiet the last day and muttering things about space time and presents. I hope he makes it to your house to drop some presents by your tree.

Are you mad?

Don't let his beard hang over the wort like that! His dinner crumbs will ruin everything.

Those are some seriously ungrateful looking turtles.

Merry Christmas to all of you at Aran Brew HQ.

Those turtles, they're never happy and all I do for them.

I assure you anything that falls from Santa's beard only makes the beer taste better. I racked it to secondary today and it tastes very nice so far.

Happy Christmas Thom and Mr B Nut.

Was he grumbling about space, time and presents, or space-time and presents? I'm convinced Santa is a bit like Dr. Who, or Eddie's in the space-time continuem. I don't know who Eddie is, but I hope he gets out soon.

Tell fat-bottomed Santa that I want either a cornie rig or a stainless steel fermenter. I'm not sure the Christkind over here would approve, but I know Santa would! :)

Merry Chrimbo!
