Default I want a new hobby -- what are yours & what new ones do you want to try

Making wine is easy. There are support groups everywhere, and your local
homebrew shop is probably more than happy to help you out. Bottles of wine
make great gifts, and it surely is a pleasure to have people come back and
tell you how good your wines are. You'll enjoy making it, you'll enjoy
drinking it, and you'll enjoy sharing it.

The best compliment I ever received came from a gentleman I know who is
almost a connoisseur. After trying a Shiraz that had aged for almost two
years, he said, "I'd pay money for that." I can't think of a better
compliment than that.
