I have become an Appliance Doctor. 2 days ago the light went out over the stove. In the old house, I would just change the light bulb, but this place has a Microwave over the store, and you need to be short and have a Phillips Screwdriver. Got the bulb out...weird looking thing. Yesterday, I went to Lowes to get a new bulb. That place has every bulb you could imagine. I saw one that looked like the one I had from the house. BUT..wanted to be sure, so I went looking for someone to help. Found a dude in the appliance area. Asked if he could help me and I showed him the bulb. He said to meet him in aisle 4. I went, and within 30 seconds I had the same bulb I had been looking at. LOL. Went to Walmart and they STILL do not have Hershey Dark Choc Chips...Look for more info on that scenario, as I emailed the main office of Walmart, and if I don't hear from them...I will be calling...anyway... Got home and replaced the bulb. Was harder to put in than take out. But now I have a light to show me the way to the kitchen at night. We had Jack Daniels BBQ Pulled Pork sandwiches and French Fries for supper last night.

I doubt very much you can find Hershey's Dark Chocolate Chips. There is a global cocoa shortage, and most places do not have them right now. Walmart cannot get them, many grocery stores can't right now.

@Ghostlady I have read for quite some time that chocolate in most any form will soon be wildly expensive. I bought extra cocoa powder for baking. I don’t eat chocolate every day but I do love dark chocolate and will indulge in that at times for sure. My oldest daughter tried to buy dark chocolate chips recently on Amazon but got a notice that they were not currently available from several sellers.

We used to do all our own maintenance but stuff seems to be trickier nowadays.

Jack Daniels BBQ Pulled Pork sandwiches sound really good. Jack Daniels is excellent.
