Did something this year that I had heard about quite a while back and had been wanting to try, that is to start me a "Rum Pot"
All you need is a crock or some other container that does not let light in and keep the air out. Why, I do not know. Beginning after christmas, put a layer of fruit, whatever is in season, in the bottom, sprinkle sugar over it and cover with rum. Keep doing this all during the year until the pot is full.
That is what I did, and last night, I just had to test it........WOW, talking about good. Took a sip and got a buzz, ate a small piece of fruit from the pot and got another buzz. After a little while, I was buzzing so much that I thought that I was in a bee hive.
So tonight I am going to remove it from the pot and put it in the fridge for sipping on during the holidays.
The question is, do you think that my yard is big enough to hold all of my christmas friends?
