Yes, I am Betty's Dad. The mead tastes great. One item not mentioned, the mead changes its taste as it warms up. That is, if you start with the mead chilled, it has changes in its taste as your glass and the bottle warm up. For me, some of the flavors are fine no matter what the temperature. But some of the flavors seem stronger warm than when chilled.

Best advice, try the various flavors. You are sure to find one that you like as well as some you might not. But none of them would cause you to spit it out.

Daily Horoscope for January 2

Virgo

It's okay to have high expectations, but try to keep in mind that no one can be all things to all people. As the Moon spends one last day in its current sign, it urges you to find a way to recognize others for their strengths, and forgive them their weaknesses. Virgoans' idiosyncrasies must look like strange quirks from the outside as well! Fate ties up the loose ends towards the end of the day.
