Two jars left. Don’t miss out, I don’t make chocolates too often and they seem to always be a hit! And yes, I ship worldwide 🌎🤞🏼

Well, I got crafty in the kitchen today! Introducing Hodl Gianduia Truffles. A bit more involved than most things I make, but pretty darn incredible if I do say so myself... This starts with caramelizing pecans and cacao nibs in organic maple sugar and panela (from @Bitcoin Beans) - done slow, then left to rest overnight so the texture and flavor can settle. Dates are blended separately into a soft base with a bit of #hodlbutter The key part is temperature. Each component is cooled before it ever touches the tempured chocolate. The goal is to protect the temper - to keep the crystalline structure intact so the final result holds its shape and doesn’t melt in your hands. It's more tricky than it sounds. Once everything is ready, it’s mixed into the tempered 70% stone-ground dark chocolate. The mixture is broken apart slightly to give more surface area, then folded together by hand until it comes together. Scooped, rolled, and finished in a coating of crushed caramelized pecans, maple sugar, and panela. The end result is something thats a bit chewy, rich, and layered. Chocolate-forward, with a subtle crunch and a natural sweetness that doesn’t overpower. Not the fastest thing to make at all. Multi-layered to be sure, but these are the bomb! 3 jars available in the shop, comes with 9 truffles in each! (~25g per)

Gooooood mornin nostr 🌞

It’s not directly a bitcoin book, but it is something that helps explain perhaps why bitcoin works the way it does. The book is “scale” by Geoffrey West. I have it myself, highly recommend. Discuss network effects, power laws, etc View quoted note →

The blackberries are starting to come in. Should be a few more weeks until they’re ready. Perhaps I should make a batch of blackberry jam. Is that something people would be interested in? I’ve never made jam before. Gimme some tips 🤞🏼

Reusing some old @Great Ghee jars for an order while I wait for my new ones to come in. Recycle what you’ve got and make it work 🤞🏼

I was gifted this beautiful fountain pen by @The Pentographer ! Thank you so much! Now I just need to figure out how to use it well! 😁🤞🏼

Good morning Nostr 🌞 Broke my fast this morning. Went a bit longer than planned - about 38 hours. Had a couple of dates and some orange juice. One thing I’ve noticed is how much deeper my morning meditations get during a fast. Time feels different too - like it moves quicker, or maybe just quieter. Curious who else here experiments with fasting, and what your experience has been. This was my third 36-hour round. #asknostr

We’re moving into a world where trust - between individuals, and even between nation states - feels like it’s steadily dissolving. And because of that, trust itself becomes the real value. Not just what you say, but what you consistently stand behind. In a way, that’s the truest form of proof of work. That’s why being a merchant on Nostr, selling a product, whatever it may be, in exchange for #Bitcoin, matters more than it might seem at first glance. It’s not just a transaction, but the signal. You’re choosing to operate in an environment where both the money and the relationship demand a higher level of integrity. That kind of trust isn’t easy to build. And it shouldn’t be taken lightly or viewed short-term.
