Yes, I suppose you are rigth.

When I had it they made it fresh right in front of me, don't think it would have had time to ferment.

You should hear the story of when I sent him to the store a few days ago & on the list was (explicitly!!!)
"REAL LEMON~ small plastic, may be in the produce area."...the issue went through the produce area with top man Beau who hunts with us..both men are trying to figure out WTH this woman wants????????
Hours later DH returns with the little plastic lemon full of lemon juice

Astonomically funny with these big bad men, one of which is our produce manager & fellow hunter

Silly boys,
Silly silly boys !!!!!!!!!!!

Coyotes kill nearly 100 of Herbfarm's heritage hens
By Elizabeth Dinh & KOMO Staff

WOODINVILLE, Wash. -- For more than 25 years, the Herbfarm Restaurant has served dishes that have highlighted locally-grown ingredients.

When Herbfarm Chef Chris Weber prepares food, he does so with three things in mind: "the quality of the food, the quality of the ingredients and where it comes from."

The kitchen staff, who once relied on local farms for their eggs, now raises their own chickens. They treasure the yield of their heritage hens -- eggs so good the chef himself can't forget the taste.

"It's pretty indescribable, I think. It's just really rich. The fat content in them is incredible. It's palette-coating. It's really rich," he said. "They're really special. We treat'em like gold."

The restaurant began with six chickens and planned to expand to 150. But on New Year's Day, the staff discovered a nightmare.

"There was one chicken sitting on the fence, looking forlorn, saying, 'Where's all my friends?' There were a lot of other chickens just laying around," said Carrie Van Dyck, owner of the Herbfarm.

Despite being protected by a solar-powered electric fence, something had gone wrong the night before. Coyotes had snuck in to the chicken coop and killed nearly a hundred chickens. The neighboring pigs and ducks were left untouched.

"We have chickens. It's our job to protect the chickens. We failed, and the coyotes won Round One. Going into Round Two now," said Van Dyck.

The restaurant plans to start over.

"That's my approach to life," Van Dyck said. "Things happen. what we do everyday is cope with whatever's happening."

The Herbfarm has hatched a new plan. The staff is scrambling to fix the fence, and install automatic closing doors on the coop.

The restaurant owners are no strangers to building anew. In 1997, a fire destroyed the Herbfarm's former location in Fall City.

I have 10 styrofoam egg cartons from Costco that hold 2 dozen eggs and a few extra cardboard egg cartons.

Easy porch pickup.

That was really funny -- in so many ways. Now if the spoken request was done without the "," placements specific and emphasized then it is anybodies guess as to real meaning........ put one after the word "eggs" and there is a whole nutter thought

I am sorry, it is late and I cannot seem to quit chuckling and snorting -- it also means that I won't be able to fall asleep because THIS will keep popping in my head like an ear-worm (music that won't go away)

hugs, chickie

Prepare YE There are lots of changes coming to BYC SOON ! ! ! ! ! ! I have been able to spend a little time playing with some of the new features and I think once all of the bugs are worked out and we learn how to use it we will be very pleased.

IF you are a GFM or PPM you can help test the new fetures and learn how things will work so you can help others once it is all up and running.
