We had cold, but not enough moisture in the air for snow or rain. It hit
72 today but Saturday is only supposed to get to 39.

No grape jelly that I know of. Last year's winner wasn't able to compete
this year; that one was a non chili. This one was closer to real chili,
just extremely mild.

If you didn't smoke, why keep them? If you don't do heat, why keep the
little bottle of it?

No surprise, worn out by then.

OK, that explains it.

I don't know what the housekeeper and care giver use but that it's not a
flowery scent. I think it's some sort of disinfecting spray but not as
offensive (to me) as Lysol.

No pan to clean up. (G)
