  12. Nice to have you here ,BTW, what is in the bags against the wall ,Maybe compost ?
     
  13. Actually wood pellets, for two pellet stoves. That combined with solar panels cut our winter monthly electric bills from over $700/month to around $25/month! Really efficient heat source. We get 5 tons at the beginning of the winter, (250 bags) for a delivered deal of around $1000, so rather than a Winter energy cost of around $3000, we spend less than $1200.

  15. I’m originally from outside Philly, so not 100% sure about the fried chicken, I do know there are several chicken processing plants over on the Eastern Shore side of Maryland (the side East of the Chesapeake Bay), you‘ll know you’re passing them but the smell. Don’t get me wrong, I love chicken, but that smell…. I can attest to the fact that Marylanders also put the spice “Old Bay” on everything. Try it on pizza.

     
  16. Welcome along, it’s getting like that here with energy prices going stratospheric, having a wood burner put in autumn 2020 proved to be an inspired purchase! Firing up that bad boy, open the doors and heat the whole house (not a huge house to be fair :laughing:)
