Marilyn Yes Byron, you may give me a big phhhhhlllllllttttttt. But, I'll bet my mortgage payment is higher than yours for a much smaller house, so there are trade offs. Yup Made my last one 5 years ago of $239.95 per month. phhhhhlllllllttttttt. L.B. Here they sell in the store for $5.99 or so a pound. The redeeming feature, they don't weigh a lot and one or two goes a long way. They aren't always available in the store though, so I don't count on being able to buy them. Mine are just starting to get ripe, and my plant has lots more buds. Since my first frost might be January of 2003 I'm not worried about the late harvest.
