Another long day

Went into town to pick up some more apple cider from a local cidery. We have been doing business with them for about three years and they have amazing products -- both the apples and juice but also cider spices, peanut butter made fresh onsite as well as cider vinegar and apple syrup. Good people... Also went by Bennett Ranch -- they specialize in grass-fed beef. We had been working with a coop fifty miles south of us -- they had an amazing product too but the logistics were too great to deal easily with them; they were set up more for larger stores. This is our first order with Bennett Ranch and I have two New York strip steaks thawing out on the counter and the grill heating up. Steam some fingerling potatoes and broccoli, a salad and that is dinner for tonight. Taking one for the team -- after all, someone has to check quality control of what we sell... Finally, went into Bellingham to get a few things for the store and for the shop. Dinner now and blogging will resume in an hour or two...
