I’m not a big fan of beer, but my husband is. So when he started to figure out how to home brew, I wasn’t phased by it. It seemed to me that his new hobby included a lot of cleaning and sanitizing. But it also required patience. After the initial set-up he had to wait quite a while for the next step, then again, waiting was the game. Once the beer was ready to be bottled, hubby was very happy. He loved the light and flavourful beer he had created and I had to say that it didn’t taste bad at all.

It turned out that waiting some more resulted in even better beer, the longer he let the bottles sit the better he liked the beverage. It resulted in us hosting a small beer tasting gathering two weeks ago on a warm September afternoon. Makes me think that sometimes waiting for the good thing can be fun and fulfilling – a hard concept for an impatient person like me to grasp.

Cheers to you!
