I made my starter on Wednesday, planning to brew my Fat Sam recipe today. Unfortunately on Thursday, I started feeling under the weather. By today I'm realizing that I may have the flu for the first time in my life. I'm only up for maybe 1/2 hour or so at a time, and feel like I want to die the rest of the time.
Even my unobservant husband said to me last night, "Man, you're SICK!" as I laid on the couch and he drank beer. He said that's the first time he's seen me lie down on the couch, and I think he's right. My hyperactive body has quit on me.
When I come back to life, though, I'll brew with that starter, and maybe make a double brew day. I have ingredients for an SNPA clone, too, and I'd love to use some homegrown cascades.
