On Saturday I thawed some chicken to put on the grill. (No sense in heating up the house, right?) It hadn’t been fired up since last summer, so I pulled it away from the house, turned on the propane, and opened the lid to remove the bag of cat food. (Don’t ask questions.) What I also found was a moldy lake. The ‘Infrared’ feature of the grill is just a big, rain-holding pan under the grates. I think the rain was from the Big Mother’s Day Storm, so it had been in there a good long while. We dumped the water, fired up the grill, burned off the mold, and cooked the chicken in nice, safe aluminum foil packets.
Later in the day I was searching for some bug spray. I looked in the bathroom closet and wondered, “What is that fuzzy stuff all over the shelf and holy cow you have got to be kidding me that is MOLD.” The closet is a catch-all for all kinds of things: guest towels, coffee makers, extra dishes, a small crockpot of wax, various kinds of cleaners, I could go on and one. Long ago Lloyd mixed up a floor-cleaner concoction in a milk jug and set in way in the back. Apparently it sprung a leak and made its own colony, starting in the way back of the closet and working its disgusting way toward the front. Lots and lots of stuff in that cabinet was thrown away, and the shelf is gone, too.
Here’s to a (hopefully) mold-free week!
