Putting Instant Pot up for adoption

fthunt — Wed, 15 Dec 2021 02:03:35 GMT

Dragged her out of precious cabinet space after a year or more - went through the paces

- cooked chicken parts. Turned out good but would be happier to have just baked it. Browning with crunch preferred.

So.....Tonight final decision - time to donate and get my cupboard back

@nana59

I'm looking for a family for mine too, I can't lug that beast out of my laundry/extended kitchen storage room one more time. It almost weighs as much as I do now.

I'm thinkin' about my SIL....we've never gotten along very well......she deserves it......

I could live happily ever after without my VitaMix but love my pressure cooker. Just finished hardboiling a dozen eggs in 5 minutes. They'll slip perfectly out of their shells.

@Kachina624 that's all I really ever use my mini for. I did cook green beans in it a couple of times, but then the gasket started stinking and I hated that smell even though they say it doesn't affect the taste. Finally managed to get the stink out.

Try Nextdoor if you want to donate or sell it. I love that site.

OMG! I'm so dense.

I was upset because I thought..."Who'd name their pet Instant Pot...and put it up for adoption."

That was well written. Loved it.

@Annabellethecat66 lol. Maybe a certain breed of pig commonly kept as a pet, known for its pot belly.

I keep telling you guys sometimes I don't know which end is up.

OK so my family got together for my birthday Saturday.

My girls were laughing as they told the story of how when we (my three daughters as young girls) would go into a shop with lots of breakable...would..

Stand at the entrance and say, "Mom, please don't pick up anything".

Errr....I've been known to ummm...break a few things...

@Annabellethecat66 Poor little IPot being put up for adoption That's so funny....I've done the same thing with some subject lines..my creative mind sometimes dances to a different drummer!

Annabellethecat66 — Wed, 15 Dec 2021 03:21:00 GMT

Yep! I've never been bored because I tend to look at everything kinda ******-eyed.

Anyone that does something with me will have a good time even if it's just laughing at some of the dufus stuff I do.😉

Love the IP for certain dishes (corn chowder, red lentil chili,perfect potatoes/rice in minutes),,,,I use my vita mix almost daily. A standing electric mixer is something I've never owned and I don't know what I would do with it. I guess it depends on your life style/diet.

@fthunt I hear you! I've been donating a lot of Home Dec; but

DH loves ribs. IP makes the best ribs. I use the WP crisper lid to finish the ribs Just for that I have to keep it.

@phoenixbrd , I've had my KA. stand mixer since the early 80's. I used it all of the time, because I baked a lot and you can whip up big batches of cookies and it is great for making cheesecake. Now .I rarely bake and the darn thing is so heavy, if I can't use the hand mixer , then I don't bake.
