wherein you will find ramblings about fiber dyeing, spinning, knitting,... and photos (sometimes), family and friend updates, rants when i need to, lack of upper case letters, weird punctuation and freedom of expression (especially mine)! To answer the question of where did it come from... this "twisted mom/twisted sandy" thing. ...during the 90's a group of my spinning students became spinning friends, which morphed into Twisted Sisters, which evolved into calling me the Twisted Mom.

labor of love??
"crushing" the grapes which will then be put in that big barrel. what's in there now comes up to about that first "ring thing" from the bottom. the thinking now is to arrange to have it made into raki/tsikoudia. We are going to a raki-making party tonight, so Jim will see what kind of arrangements he can make. In Crete there are only a certain number of folks who are licensed to make raki (a distilling process), so anyone who wants raki from their grapes must arrange with those who have licenses. if you don't know what raki is... my descriptive is "fire water". it's like ouzo without the licorice.
