Sold baklava for Bitcoin in 2011

I'll have a very limited amount of OG and turtle baklavas at BitBlockBoom today.

Find me if you want some!

I don't mind being out in hot weather, working in it is another story.

I'm not used to this level of heat, plus Texas sun is brutal when you're from northern US. Gotta limit my outside time for sure.

Looking forward to Austin TX next week. 🥵🌡️

(Yes I'm the one American who uses Celsius)

I have twins, I'll never forget what that was like. One would be a breeze by comparison. 😂

It's a type of chocolate made by Callebaut, a Belgium chocolate maker. It's essentially a white chocolate with caramel tones. Smells incredible and looks golden, but it's hidden under the milk chocolate layer.

You see it when you bite into the baklava. 😄

BitBlockBoom Beefsteak next week is gonna be lit.

Baking the turtle baklava is easy enough. Takes about 20 minutes to assemble the pastry and an hour to bake.

Dipping 160 small pieces first into golden chocolate, and then again into milk chocolate, takes about 5 hours!

Hope you guys enjoy it. It's my culinary masterpiece. 🧡🙏

BitBlockBoom prep begins

A friend I've known since the 90s has a fear of germs and people since covid. He talks about not wanting to go outside around all these "germ infested people."

Like bro, that's what outside has been since there was an outside. It's part sad, part pathetic.

50/50 salt and pepper (16 mesh)

If Bitcoin is $40k by halving I'll be happy

If Bitcoin isn't $40k by halving I'll be happy

Be happy 🤙

I used to allow toxic people into my life. Energy vampires who ridiculed & belittled me.

Life didn't get better until I cut them off completely.

Respect yourself and be assertive. Don't allow these types to drag you down.

Oh yeah, definitely playing this. I'm a huge fan of souls & souls-like games!

MH World came out in 2018 and is still incredible. Iceborne is its expansion.

MH Rise (+ Sunbreak expansion) came out later and plays like an old school MH game, but with crazy movement and much faster pace. Either is great to try out as a first game.

You'll either love it or hate it. No in between with this franchise!

HZD is a lot of fun, but combat is a bit too floaty IMO. Love the artistic style!

Seriously though, as far as action games go the MH games are top tier. Kill stuff, make armor and weapons from their body parts, rinse/repeat. I've been playing the franchise since 2007! 😂

You guys ever play Monster Hunter games? That's basically what Wild Hunt is "copying." I've been wanting to give it a try!

I'm the biggest Monster Hunter nerd in Bitcoin, guaranteed.
