Winter beer heart of Darkness + pie recipe

Found a seasonal beer called heart of Darkness by Magic Hat.  I gotta say it has a very unique taste.  

It has a bitter/creamy chocolate taste. Not sludgy at all.  

Pairs well with a chocolate cupcake.

I have been a huge fan of Magic Hat, especially their #9. 

Defiantly worth a try  for a seasonal/non pumpkin flavored beer.

Another day at the farmers market

We went out for a ride.  On the way home I decided we should check out the weekend farmers market.  We ended up seeing a vendor who deals in solar cooking appliances.  During the interview she told us that she saves 30% on her electric bill.  She had a few portable units and she sells the plans as well.  The one in the lower left pictured is just foil and cardboard.  I should make one of these to make my coffee when I am out and about.  With just a few minutes and some sunlight you can cook.

This is her home versions which she cooks with regularly.
