We live in PA, in a ranch home that was built in the 60's. Help me decide. We used to use oil to heat our house and then got a pellet stove put in a few years ago, we used the oil for hot water and backup heat (hot water baseboard) in case the pellet stove wasn't working. Fast forward to this...

DH bought me an oscillating electric heater for Christmas. (I have, honestly, the coldest hands and feet of anyone I know.)

I have been wanting a pressure cooker for a couple years. They are very pricey here. This weekend friends were having a garage sale and they had an almost new pressure cooker for $10. I got it for $5. They never had an instruction book, so they didn't have success. Anyone have some tips? It's a...

We had 20 days with our old meter and 12 days with the new "smart meter". So far I am ok with the smart meter. It did help the the electric supplier also lowered the price per Kw too. It is the lowest bill I have had in well over two years. Also this is what else might of helped. 1. Heater...

Our power was off this morning for awhile. I made toast on the wood stove ( but could do it in the oven of our gas stove) I am thinking of trying to do an experiment for the next 3 months to see what ideas I can come up with. I won't be turning off the electric but trying to do as much...
