"In addition to the ordinary household activities there were others which are entirely unknown to the modern housekeeper, such as candle molding, soap making, weaving and dyeing, the making of brooms and the brewing of beer for the household."

After brewing the beer and making the brooms, the housekeepers of days gone past would take turns flying those brooms around the kitchen while singing that old time favorite 'Ninety Nine Bottles of Beer' as they swigged them down.
