| Look what I brought home! Maybe more for my resume - I plan to dry the beans and then roast them. |
OK, to be honest, I picked about 5 or 6 - he picked the rest.
One of my H.M. has been bugging me to go to a local coffee plantation with him for ages. I had some time this morning so off we went in his car to check it out. Before I go further - don't eat a coffee berry unless you want to feel like it must feel like after ingesting crystal meth or crack cocaine. Now hours ago ingested and I still feel like I cannot come back down to earth. Not a nice feeling. He ate a handful. I ate one.

| Not quite ready to pick. A few more weeks of ripening |
 |
| These brownish red ones are ready |
 |
| Here is what it looks like at the plantation. The short stubby trees are the coffee trees |
 |
| We picked these.
Apparently, this plantation was abandoned by the owners when they discovered they could make a lot more money with a palm oil plantation than coffee beans. Anyone can go and pick, dry, and roast their beans, if they are willing to possibly meet up with mr. snake in the bushes.
