    I checked out IMR for batteries. Sticker shock since the last time I purchased. Any other vendors cheaper than 5.99 for one battery in the States? I have been buying the samsung 18650 flat lithium. They seem not to have a long life. Any other suggestions for batteries?

    I'll second the P26A, good cell. Some of the ones I recently replaced, great performer.

    Also the Molicel M35A, but only 10 CDR. But great for tootlers.

    Got all of those at the 18650 Battery Store, super fast shipping, and all come in cases.

    I’ve been using mostly the molicel batteries. I did buy a couple hohmtech batteries to see what the hype was about but didn’t notice much difference.

    @FranC, got a mix you might like. I got it off ELR by user Moondancer93. @Zazie please add to blog, TY

    Forest Custard

    Forest Fruit (Forest Mix) (FA) 5.5%
    Bavarian Cream (DX) (TPA) 1.25%
    Vanilla Custard (TPA) 1.75%
    That’s rather high for the Forest Fruit but I may try It with less. Thanks for thinking of me:)

    Morning time travellers :D

    Lots been going on here so have been offline for a while. Still wading through my big bottles of adv's with more steeping! I did mix six new recipes two days ago...hope they turn out ok.

    We're off to the Tarn SW France next week. Not relishing the eight hour drive but we'll do it in two stages and spend the night somewhere on route. Going up to see V's cousin who has metastatic bone cancer which has now spread to her liver, poor thing. She can't use her left arm. We've been pretty worried about her. She lives alone in a rural area and has had to rely on friends for support/visits. Looking forward to seeing her and we'll be guided by her in terms of socialising. Not a great situation at all :(

    Hope you're well Fran :wub:

    That is where I purchased mine and they are everything I had read about. I was shocked but I got my batteries in two days. I love that they came in cases. I imagine they do that for the safety of shipping but it was a nice little added "treat" and I love treats!

    I had a very productive day yesterday. No emergency room visits. Just the usual cuts/scrapes of messing with brush. Got finished and dad said we needed to mow the yard. So I did all the trim work and edged the driveway and sidewalks. Then my aunt fixed us supper. Someone had given her a Harry&David's Chicken Pot Pie for Christmas. It was so good but only a one-time thing for me because they were $64.99 for two. Sheesh! Ain't no pot pie worth that unless it is served to me by Aquaman while I am lounging in a silk nightie! mermaid.gif heehee

    Happy Saturday everyone!

    I’ve been waiting forever to get the speculoos that you mentioned quite a while ago and it was finally back in stock this week.
