  1. Most meat in the IP is great. Ground beef in chili, spag sauce is great. I made meat loaf one day ... never again. I did not like the slimy texture.. that needs to go in the oven. I love cooking pasta and rice in there because i dont need to watch it, it doesnt stick or boil over. The house stays cool. Things taste better.. i've done lots of veg in it. Broccoli and cauliflower on zero minutes .. root veg takes minutes. Squash is amazing. Food cooked in the IP (pressure cooker) retains more of its goodness than boiled. It does have a lot of good points.
  2. i don't belong to it but there are tons of recipes on various facebook InstantPot groups. Here this one is weird Don't say i didn't warn you!! I do not like the IP for everything. It is a great tool and for brown rice, pasta, making stock, beans from dry, spaghetti sauce, chili, stews etc., it is amazing. I've made some great stuff in it and i would replace mine if it was necessary but it is just a tool.
  3. He would tell you just put them on and go. Screw other people and what they think. Are you living your life or theirs? i think i'm fairly safe in saying that's fairly close to what He'd say. i think the same really, if you feel too warm, put on shorts and go. He feels warm/hot most of the time even in winter, when i sit with a blanket, He is in shorts. And of course i believe the 'praying' thing ... how else you mess up your knees? Hahaha
  4. It was very warm the other night so i just made a salad plate ... we had things to use up so i made hard boiled eggs, we had ham and turkey breast as well, added tomato, sliced peppers, dressed romaine lettuce, baby cucumbers and i keep nice little whole wheat rolls in the freezer so we had one of those (thawed). it hit the spot.
  5. If it helps, my Husband wears shorts all year round at home.
  6. Breezy and 20c/68f here atm. Humidity is low... so yeah. I have a bowl of flour, water and yeast rising on the counter for no-knead focaccia from my fav food blogger. I made the 50% whole wheat version ... we will have that with dinner tonight and some will go in the freezer.
  7. There are some nice decaf coffees out there. i've tried decaf tea but would rather die than drink them, just awful. The peach tea from David's is very nice but it has no 'tea' in it, so no caffeine. i'm not usually one for herbal things much but that stuff is very good.
  8. the food blog thing is funny ... i know there is a recipe on here somewhere!!!
  9. We got David's Peach tea for Christmas. You reminded me. It is sooooooo good. I'll make some and let it go cold. It's really nice.
  10. mmm, no thanks ... i will stick with my sugar fee, low fat version. i don't gain weight, but my arteries could.
  11. Leaf water? Actually, i have had no leaf water. 2 bean waters, but no leaf yet.
  12. Well! Wayne would never say such a thing about me! I am hurt to the core. Bwahahaha
  13. Michael totally agrees. Someone told Him not to use boiling water. He said, I've had my tea the same way since I was a child. It's made with boiling water.That's how I'll continue to make it."
  14. Michael installed a filter that is hooked to the tap and sits on the edge of the counter.. so we can fill bottles and put them in the fridge.
  15. i suppose cuz there is a bunch of you, you can't put water in the fridge. That's where we put it, cuz really there isn't much in there.
  16. We rarely use it. But i will for these.
  17. i will just go do that now, Michael, Sir.
  18. Yes, Sir, thank You. Oh, i have seen Blade Runner ... but i'd don't recall that. i will look it up.
