Was easy paying 2 grand a year for oil 10 years ago but the furnace went for a turd and I haven't looked back since. Tricky sometimes burning 24/7 but like you, I love it.

 

Saute first with garlic/salt to taste
Then cover with oil in a container.

It's hard to tell but that tree had been dead leaning for years the sap wood was rotten.

 

Man I wish I had some now! That sounds like the ticket thank you.

 

Yeah my first electric bill was $150.00 higher for the winter. Add to the fact this heat pump feels like cold air I had to make a change.

 

I absolutely love the carport for a wood shed! Awsome idea, especially if you have the room for it!

 

Thanks! It was born out of necessity I need it quick and turns out it worked great. I should have got a double though lol.

 

We've used them for chowder, yummy.
