You’re a lucky man! I made home made grape juice today from my arbor. But I prefer being at the rifle range. ;<)
Good for you. This was common when I was a child.
But you missed a step...fermentation. :)
All the old timers made their own and it was good stuff.
“I love a woman that can cook rather than just microwave a healthy choice dinner ;)”
So do I, been married to her for 50 years!!!
Give her a kiss for me ;)
NY-DC media assholes are repulsed by the same things that excite the Brits. Hence the Tina Fey as Sarah quip about "the meth capital of Alaska". American media miss the "last frontier" allure and just see stupid racist homophobic redneck neanderthals.
I am under 45 yrs old, love the outdoors, hunt, am a republican reformer, have taken on the republican establishment, have many children, have a spot on the national ticket as VP with less than 2 yrs in the governor’s office. Who am I? Teddy Roosevelt, of course.
Looks like Rupert Murdoch approves ?
Growing up, my family always used a machete for chickens.
Except we would butcher all the chickens that we were going to want for the year and then freeze them.
Along with a beef and a couple pigs.
Fall was a busy time of year.
Great story. Thanks for posting it.
Good thing for us but, the Democrats are going to rue the day(s) they passed over/pushed aside Hillary as their nominee, then VP slot...
Man, that one made me chuckle. I could just imagine politicians and bureaucrats getting up before dawn everyday to catch up on the graft. Turns out to be a britishism for "hard working".....
Indeed....I have no doubt that we're all waiting with bated breath for another morsel of profundity from this world-class intellectual.
thats too much reality for todays tv audiences
that have absolutely no experience off a recliner, bed or chair.
Indeed, and far too much reality for the vast majority of 'journalists' as well but in all fairness I commend Emily Smith for giving it a try...which is far more than the vast majority of others in her profession have done.
She is just like millions of oldtime Grammas that would wring a chickens neck then make the best Sunday dinner..
Go Sarah Go!
Agreed, but I have a feeling that the American people are not quite as likely to fall for the Dem spin this time.

Hey for person like me who used live in Alaska that Alaska for you LOL!
Real people who haven't been turned into wussies! She would be a delightful breath of fresh air in Washington DC and would serve as a spectacular role model for billions of people all over the world.
If I were married to bill I’d be drinking like Edina on Absolutely Fabulous” (constantly)
No one has answered the important questions.
Bull or cow?
Size
Rifle
caliber
bullet weight
loading?
Haven't any of the hunting or shooting magazines covered that yet? Hopefully they will soon.
Agreed, but I think also that her frame of reference and life experience is understood and appreciated by a great many decent, normal folk outside of Alaska as well, and this is one of the numerous factors that may well propel her into the Oval Office with not only a win, but a spectacular, massive win.
