I'm on my way :mrgreen:



It's rubbish! You can't see what's going on and I'm pretty sure medium was way too hot 'cause it burned once the water/butter level got low. Before using it I ran it through the dishwasher and the finished butter still had a chemical flavor to it. Maybe if I had the patience to test it a few times and figure out the temps it would work, but boiling it in a pot seems like a way better option. At least I only wasted a 1/2 ounce and 1/2 pound of butter.
One thing I stumbled across over the last 55 years or so is that there are no shortcuts to doing something right.

But I still keep an eye on new inventions.

No doubt. The only "new" thing that I'm sold is the ardent nova decarboxylator. I love that thing and can decarb two ounces of weed in my kitchen and there's practically no smell, maybe a slight odor if you're standing right next to it when it's running. I saw this thing on our government weed shop store. Grinds, heats, stirs, and steeps your herbal extract, all at the correct time intervals and temperature. $230 seems a bit steep tho.

Is this the same place that had several feet of snow back in November?
Yep...the farm is right below the normal snow line (2500') in the Sierras. That heavy snowfall was exceptional. But some warmer storms moved in and it started raining below 3500' and melted all the snow around the farm. However just a few min drive uphill will put you in the snow...

Ahhhh yes!! California, where Snowy mountains, dry desert, and the sunny beach are all just a few hours drive away. Me? Stuck in the armpit of it all.

It could be worse, you could be in Stockton...
Same thing. We are like sister cities when it comes to the black market. Sacramento too. A lot of people move out here from Stockton and sac to get away from their city. And a lot of the folks from here go up there. It’s all the same shit lol. That’s why our 3 city’s have some of the same gangs, street politics, and similar black market(although we can get a few things a bit cheaper). Doesn’t matter if you’re not affiliated, but most people are in the ghetto.

jeez I wish our winter would end that abruptly. It looks like our warm weather is going to continue for another week at least. Yay!

I process mine in my Ninja Foodi, same as the Instant Pot. Easy peasy, shove the pot in a Mason Jar cover it with oil in a 1:10 ratio and process. I forget the time. I need to look it up since I need to process another batch soon.

I accomplished getting a better camera. The downside was it came with a phone.

So I'm at the frou frou chi chi phone store and this guy comes up to talk and is showing me pics of his dog. I open my phone to reciprocate and I have to go through 25 or so pics of pot. I didn't realize I liked taking pics of my pot quite so much.

Took down the new years lights today and stowed them, next is the tree. Daughter is bringing the grandkids over for dinner, red beans and rice with smoked ham hock and andouille sausage. Tincture kind of evening and suds to wash it down.
Our Christmas decorations come down tomorrow. Merry Armenian Christmas everybody! Wife has got some dolma roasting now. Can’t wait.

The ghetto is kind of a warm and comfy place if you are a decent person
