Yes, I am the writer of Joyful Abode, and Joyous is, well... a girl whose real name is actually Joy. I'm pretty sure Joy doesn't want to buy any beans, but she was offering her services as a runner to us :-D So if we order some, she will get them from you to me, which is awesome of her (Thanks Joy!). N, I am sending you an email so we don't have to comment here anymore! Haha… Yes, I am the writer of Joyful Abode, and Joyous is, well… a girl whose real name is actually Joy.

I was looking at the Ugandan beans, but am open to opinions: it appears that cost issues between the high-end beans are relatively small, so we can choose with abandon.... N. Joyous,

Small world, haha. If you guys decide to do this anytime soon, and since I know Admin in "real life," I would be willing to be a drug, I mean, vanilla bean, mule. :-D BreadBox and Admin,

I figure that if a pound is 100-ish beans, probably four people is about the minimum needed for a 1 lb order. I could see sacking away a few different recipes (vodka, brandy, rum, perhaps a ginger spiced version) of vanilla extract, and then using the rest for ice-cream, etc.... N.

Where in SC are you? I'm near Columbia. If you're nearby and want to order soon, I'd go in on it with you! Which kind of bean do you think you'd want to order?
