YES, finally, I got my Electric Salt and Pepper mills!

Well, after years of wanting a decent pepper mill, Costco had a set on sale that I finally bought. It is a pair, pepper and salt mills both. It was $50 for the set but they are on sale for $40 for the set. Comes with first load of pepper and salt. Wow, does the salt that comes with them taste great! They are ELECTRIC and take SIX AAA batteries each. Dang, 12 batteries, just like that! No switch to push, it is a gravity switch, tilt it upside down and the motor grinds your salt or pepper. Can adjust the coarseness of the grind with a nice knob on top.

Time to put my manual crank grinder pepper mill away finally!

That is a link to their demo. They are already sold out at Costco.com. Looks like I'm not the only one wanting a set. LOL

Buckyballs - ah, what a time taker!


Well, I gave a set of gold and a set of black Buckyballs to to one of my employees a couple nights ago, told him how expensive they were, so he had to stop at Fred Meyer and look. He told me yesterday, Wow, they want $38 per color for them. Yes. Expensive toy. At Buckyball's website they have them for $29.95 + $5.95 for shipping, and if you buy two sets of them they will ship them free. So, from Buckyball's themselves you can get two sets for $60 instead of the $78 Fred Meyer wants. http://www.getbuckyballs.com/ is their website URL.

Jason said he went home after work the night I gave them to him and he said he sat down and played with them a few minutes and looked at the clock and THREE AND A HALF HOURS had gone by. LOL He said Jennifer (his wife) got frustrated playing with the second set of them, they wouldn't do what she wanted them to do. Hehehe.

I know I enjoy picking them up and playing with them. Make all kinds of designs with them. What a new toy I have to play with. So do Jennifer and Jason. Dumb Boss, always giving them things.
