...it has to sit on the stove for a day so I can't do any more to it until tonight. I'll stop off at the store to get the limes and Angostura after work today. I'll definitely sweeten it as per Jamaican methods. While I was grating up the ginger the kids were curious aqs to what I was doing and why. I explained that I was making ginger beer. Immediately my 10 yr old sweetheart shoved her way between me and the grate because she wanted to grate ginger as well. She grated a lump then I grated one. She commented on teh cool shapes ginger root grows into and described what she was seeing much as a dreamer would see things in cloud shapes. Wouldn't know know it, I was day dreaming while grating and managed to take a chuck of my thumb off. My language was a little more colorful after that; all I saw were red stars.
