vanilla bean shortage

Here’s some news that made me immediately buy more vanilla beans.  Beans have gone up from $25/kilo to $40/kilo.  Retailers have not yet adjusted their prices yet.  I bought 1/2 lb of beans (50 to 60 beans) for about $30 today.  Hopefully they will keep well and this stock will last me for a year or more until prices go back down.

I finally finished my excess ice cream in the freezer this week.  I waited too long to make pineapple coconut ice cream and ended up eating the pineapple by itself.  I hope my honeydew melon is ok, I hope to be making honeydew melon with midori liqueur tonight.
