We had a good week-end. Did go out yesterday for bulk rock salt to keep the driveway passable, a ton scooped into the back of the truck. DH also needed a heat gun (?) so we stopped at Harbor Freight. He wasn't amused when I asked if my turbo hair dryer would work.
The water kefir grains seem to be happy, but I'm not sure what the finished product is supposed to taste like. Know they need to eat the sugar, so have put the current jar on the kitchen floor in front of the register so that it is a little warmer than our 60 degree house. Added dried elderberries to the 1st one, but don't think it's doing anything.
