My well water has to be tested but no mods to my kitchen are going to be needed.

He was very helpful. He said that he was much happier that I aim to cook it and keep it hot. Said that most people get in trouble cooling and re-heating to sell.

So, that was the key piece of the puzzle. I am going to submit my application to vend on Monday.

Now the work begins in ernest.

WTG, Jim! Time to make some xtra change!
