Inside Out Outside In

Bulk Soybeans Update

 I found a local producer for organic non-GMO soybeans.  I drove out to Malta, IL to get a 50 lb. bag from Plapp Family Organics.  The price was reasonable and definitely a savings when compared to buying in smaller quantities from someone like Whole Foods.  A bag will fill two 5 Gal. buckets with a little over.  I don't anticipate any storage problems since I intend to use up the supply rather than keep it for long term storage.

I made my first batch of Tofu from the beans the other day and I'm quite happy with the result.  Nice flavor and form and my daughter Erin loved it.  She likes cubed slightly warmed Tofu as a night time snack before bed.

Market Value of Flex Programmers

 This blog recently received a targeted spam comment.  While I normally would just delete the comment, the contents may be of use to Flex programmers looking for work.  Here's the quandary.  The company in question is looking for Flex programmers, 10 of them to be exact.  The company pays between $15 and $20 U.S.D. an hour (about $41K a year) and is based in China.   That's below the U.S. median income.

So basically it's an outsourcing company targeting potential employment candidates through a channel primarily read by the U.S. market willing to pay outsourcing pay rates.

I've decided to not approve the comment.  If you really need the work, contact me via email and I'll forward you the details.
