We are getting a nice good rain - about to end for a while, and then it's forecast to come back stronger, later today. If we could get 2" total, that'd be great, despite it glopping things up, and I may or may not get a chance to grill today. The last round (grilling) a few days ago, the bluegill came out good and the chicken better. :-)
I love trying out new seasonings: Wally World yesterday had on clearance out one called Cosmos Dry Rub "Double Pepper Cow Cover", 10 oz, regular $10.98 (they say), marked down to $4.00. 2 out of 5 heat (mfgr. rating) and they claim: "Be warned, this rub may ruin barbeque restaurants for you forever."
;-)
They also had 30 oz. bags of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups and Kit Kat bars for $5, regular $14.98. Sell by is 10/26, but, these will be an "extra" for wifey for Mother's Day.* They'll surely be "gone" by 4th of July.
*Her "big treat" is going to a retreat Fri-Sat with our daughter -- that's what she said she wanted! Maybe Sunday "dinner out" if she's not too tired when she gets back. It's a significant drive, so, I'll drive her in and out to work on Th. so I can give the car a good once over. For sure one rear light needs to be replaced - I just noticed it being out when she pulled out this morning. (It's a sort of redundant tail light, but, still...)
I forgot to mention that also in that Amazon order that delivered the heavy kevlar thread I posted about previously, the 8x 2/3 AAA NiMh batteries I ordered came in. These are for backup in those electronic / digital wall outlet AC power timers used to more complex on-off schedules for lights, small appliances, etc. Those timers usually have a tiny (about the size of an LR44 button cell) backup battery in them, and said little batteries sometimes go bad. It’s “possible” to get a tabbed AAA rechargeable battery in some timers, sometimes, but a 2/3 AAA is an easier fit in almost all cases. So, ergo these little guys, and being brand new & with good reviews, they should hold up for a good long time. The usage, unless you leave a timer unused for several years, is really “light duty”. I tested 4 of the 8, so far, and current capacity has been from 330 mAh to 376 mAh, out of a 400 mAh rating, so, pretty good for Chinese batteries, so far. :-)
