Homemade wine for our communion!

Nonna T, on April 19, 2014 at 8:26 AM Posted in Planning 0 10

Father's on board, too. We did this for my dad's funeral mass as well Smiley smile

Seven days out and I am doing less and less. Joe said he would put the place cards and autograph frame together. I think it's an excuse to dip in to the candy buffet but hey, that is one thing he wanted so why not?

Ready to get this show on the road and become, as he calls me, a "Wopski."

Happy Saturday and Easter eve to everyone!

    Happies back to you!

    I love that idea. My grandfather used to make dandelion wine, maybe we should do that for our rehearsal dinner.

    Joe is so great! Yay for helpful FHs

    Happy wine making to you. Just make sure you have some left. ;-)

    Super sweet of Joe to help you - even if it means less candy to go around. LOL!

    Thanks, Jetali'! He is a peach to be sure but then again, he wanted this biggish shebang Smiley smile

    Philly, there is still time and recipes online using juice, takes about six weeks. Ours is the real deal, crushed the grapes (no footsies) and all.

    KimS, a small price to pay, right?

    Love it, it's such a fun idea!

    So does this mean we'll see a Tina BoBina wine on the shelves sometime soon? Smiley winking

    It's something our family has done as long as I can remember...buying the grapes, crushing, fermenting, it's a huge process.

    Here is a way to make it with juice http://voices.yahoo.com/how-worlds-simplest-homemade-wine-1440875.html?cat=22

    And by the way, exploding bottles is a very real occurrence--trust me!

    What a great way to make your wedding Mass even more personal. I had no idea that you would be permitted to do that - I thought sacramental wine had to come from someplace special, but I love the idea. Love and best wishes to the two of you for the final week before your wedding. Happy Easter!
