Any recommendations for obtaining green beans for roasting? To start I would prefer cheap over super-high quality, because I a,sure I would ruin a couple batches learning the technique.

I buy most of my beans from Sweet Maria's (Oakland, CA) but occasionally buy from a few others like Burman's Coffee Traders, who will have great sales from time to time. Plus, you could check with your local roasters and see if they have some old beans to give, or will sell you a few pounds from their inventory. I did this with a roaster here.

I have some of their non stick heavy stove top pans I've been using for 30 yrs. They are great. The egg pan is showing a little wear on the edge where I break the eggs at the handle consistently. Just looked and a replacement set is on sale right now. But I only need one.

Going to attack mices this morning

Back about three decades ago, a friend had a mouse that was evading all the traps. I offered (for a case of beer) to eliminate the mouse. So I put a Snickers bar in the corner in the kitchen in front of a piece of 2x6, and sat up all night with the pellet rifle, and by time they got up the problem was eliminated — and all evidence disposed of…

Good Morning
49° and drizzling. Gonna stay like this all day.
Zoe has it figured out.

Yesterday was a decent day after the fog burned off. Got the smoker cleaned out and ready to go for the next round, whenever that is. Was very pleased with the FireBoard 2 Drive controller.
Picked up some outside, son brought up an RC model that I built at least 20 years ago. I gave it to him with a .90 four stroke engine, he converted it to electric. It seems to work very well. We made a few tweaks to the radio setup, but overall a success. I had painted it to look like a full scale J3 Cub that I used to fly. Hard to tell scale from the picture, but it’s about a 77” wingspan.

Did some cleanup in the shop and put together a tool bag to leave in the Prius.
Made a nice sandwich with thin sliced smoked pork tenderloin, some aged sharp cheddar, dill pickle slice and some Dijon mustard.

Not a lot planned for today, wife is at a farmers market, when she gets done, she is off to the holiday market to relieve son and DIL who manned her spot for the day. So it just Zoe and I on a rainy day.
