“Hey, do you hear a marching band?” “Oh yeah, that’s right, it’s Veteran’s day!”

Sorted eggs
We get most of our eggs from the farm that does our meat CSA. They put a variety of sizes in each carton, rather than sorting into the traditional medium, large, x-large, etc. This can be an issue for baking, so I generally weigh & sort the eggs. You’ll note the largest (88 grams) is twice the weight of the smallest!
Brewing
It’s been far too long since I’ve brewed beer. I’ve ordered a couple of kits to ease back into it. What we have here is ingredients for an extract-brewed Breakfast Stout (oatmeal cream stout w/ coffee) and for a partial-mash Belgian Tripel. We’ll brew one or the other of these the day after Thanksgiving.
