We have retired the popper we have been roasting on for the last year? or so, it simply wasn't putting out enough heat any more. I'm adjusting to the new one, I roasted a load of Costa Rica Tres Rios this afternoon that I wasn't really happy with. I think it will be drinkable, but certainly nothing special.
And I keep forgetting to mention that in honor of the anniversary of the Gettysburg Address yesterday, I bought/downloaded the audiobook version of Sarah Vowell's The Partly Cloudy Patriot - the first essay is about Gettysburg. So I went to sleep yesterday with Sarah Vowell reading me bedtime stories. I'd forgotten how much I like falling asleep to being read to - I may have to get some more spoken word stuff.
