Max Makes Photo of the Day
Friday, February 23, 2007

Max makes photo of the day on a trip I was supposed to be on. Jealous? You could say that, but not for the damn photo -- I'm jealous that he's chest deep in the powdery of pow.

On fermenting his cider: "'Fermentation generates carbon dioxide which has to escape without letting air in,' Mr. Muller said. To let out the gas, his vat has an air valve. Keeping the carbon dioxide inside the barrel could create apple champagne, 'but it's more likely that the barrel would blow up,' commented Mr. Muller's wife, Rosa.""Besides making cider, Mr. and Mrs. Muller like to ski, canoe, hike, garden and ride on their tandem bicycle."

It's that time of the year again, folks, and have you voted for your favorite relative's weblog of the year? I was always wondering why La Coquette -- if you pardon the segue into geekery -- has such a high traffic volume and pagerank. Then I saw the ballet pages -- a link to each nominated blog. Nice! Thousands upon thousands of people vote in this annual event. And, considering that she was also nominated last year, that's twice the fun. I've submitted my votes: La Coquette, of course, along with PostSecret, Lifehacker, and Make. Happy voting, and best of luck. Go vote now.
