    Built-in Oven Recommendations?

    My suggestion is to find a good appliance repairman and purchase an older analog oven that has been checked out. There are plenty out there. The newer ovens, even commercial, are designed to last about 6 yrs and the electronics are often not available as soon as three years later.

    Anyone else doing a refi on their home mortgage?

    That's the key. Knowing how long it takes to break even. After that, the monthly savings look good! Makes sense if you're going to stay for a while.

    Have you started your garden?

    Planted first week in April and we had a late frost two weeks later that stunted some of my stuff. Now they're saying we might have another frost this weekend. Mid-May frost?? Several different types of tomatoes and peppers. Squash, zucchini, okra and cucumbers. Rosemary, sweet basil, thyme...

    Shopping and Social Distancing

    WalMarts here did some counting of folks early on but have backed off. Same with Home Depot and Lowes. Very little social distancing. Maybe 20-25% of people wearing masks. No WalMart/Food Lion/Home Depot/Lowes employees have confirmed cases despite the traffic and lack of 'safe measures' from...

    How to smoke salsa?

    Never tried smoking the veggies for salsa. We just roast them on the grill. We do smoke jalapeños for chipotle and poblanos for ancho but I don't use those in salsa.

    Coronavirus - Covid 19

    A simple mask may not prevent you catching the bug, that's been proven. I can't help but believe that it does help keep from spreading your germs. I don't like being around people coughing and sneezing openly any time, much less during a pandemic. I do a lot of work in Asia. Believe me, in the...

    Shopping and Social Distancing

    Our WalMart Neighborhood Market started restricting the number of folks inside today. It was well stocked for meat, eggs, dairy, canned goods, and vegetables. Didn't check on the paper products.

    Coronavirus - Covid 19

    Many forums are shutting down all COVID discussions because of all of the mis/dis - information being spread. Also they can't help but start leaning political when every city and state are making their own decisions. Too many 'experts' and 'models' going around. I'll stick with 'Respect but...
