Vanilla!!!

My Vanilla Beans are IN.  Yeah, go high quality organic vanilla beans.  It only took 2 days because their packinging plant or at least head quarters are in Breakenridge, CO.  Also  I mistook my click.  I got 1/4 pounds of Taticain and 1/2 pound of Burbon vanilla beans, whole, grade A, that are about 7 to 8 inches long.  All for only $34 and that was WITH shipping.  It seams to be a good dozen or more in the 1/4 pound.  This is a LOT of vanilla beans. 

<Happy good food dance!>

That is all.  Sorry for the inturption.

Just so you can be boggled too.

I met a man yesterday who made the most amazing mead I have had the joy to taste in my life. Really clean taste. Really crisp. Not gaggingly (Which isn't a word, and I don't care because the meaning is apparent. :) ) sweet. Fifty proof. Hold on to that thought for a moment as it boggled my mind. Then he smiled at me and said that it went straight into the bottle tasting like that,no aging. I took a moment to process that. Then he smiled and said that he managed to get it to fifty proof in... SEVENTEEN days. And won't share his secret. Seriously I want to get my hands on his yeast as he claims the secret is in the feeding of the yeast. Either way, I was amazed at the way this stuff tasted...
