My Wife Cracked Me Up!

Post by Rusty Ole Bucket »

I think you guys might get a chuckle out of this. My wife said this to me midday on Saturday and I'm still cracking up every time I think about it. I was proofing that last batch of sugar shine and went in to bring her a small sample and show her the 1st jar proof picture. She looks at the picture and without even cracking a smile and no hesitation she goes, "humph, you made Backyardi 151." :lol: I thought I was going to pop I laughed so hard. Good one babe, good one. :clap:

I think it may stick around the forum like Turdbo did.

Yes, to get the best results, we recommend you not make Backyardi 151 with Turdbo.

That's awesome! I'll have to tell her. You guys will be proud to know, I read enough on here before I started, that I haven't even been tempted to try any turdbo yeast even if my distiller buddy keeps telling me that's the way to go. :thumbup:

She is definitely a keeper and I'm defnitely going to have some bottles of Backyardi 151...Backyardi Silver...Backyardi Black...Backyardi Gold, I even have an idea for a Blood Orange & Vanilla Backyardi, you get the idea. :lol:

You could add a little molasses to the fermenter on the next batch of 151 sugar shine.

That’s hilarious! Gotta love when they hit you with a zinger like that, completely deadpan. 😂 Sounds like she’s got a sharp wit and keeps you on your toes—always a good trait in a partner! Honestly, moments like these make relationships stronger and more fun. Plus, exploring what you want in a partner and articulating it helps clarify your own values and relationship goals. If anyone’s looking for their own quick-witted companion, old lady hookup might just point you in the right direction!
