I put a 'set' of hocks in my shopping cart then discovered the shipping cost was even more than the hocks. i still want them though, they look much meatier than those I can get locally.

a "throw up"? Meaning a toss-up? I get the connection to the cat barf.

My experience with EFPs is from a while back but what I didn't like about the ones I used was that 'heat ring' in the base...it caused very uneven cooking. Apart from the fact that they didn't hold a consistent temperature.

Did you have the valve in the right position for PC? Don't laugh, that happened to me.

Has anyone compared KFC chicken with Popeye's? We have both nearby but the KFC is a whole lot easier and quicker to get to so I haven't tried Popeye's yet...and I also want to try their shrimp.

I like using my crockpot when it's hot or just when I want time for other things. There are more and more recipes that can successfully made that way without losing flavor, texture or appearance. I make my mac and cheese that way now and it's still good.

I made this cornbread today, it's almost cool enough to try!

Dinner tonight is leftover short ribs and gravy pressure cooked in the mini IP along with crockpot Mac and cheese presently cooking in the mini IP. Lots of time to relax and enjoy cocktail time.

Like Kaye, I use my IP, CSO, other pressure cookers plus I sometimes will deep-fry or grill out on the deck. i make more salads when it's hot as well. on my trip to Costa Rica a few years ago, in early January it was still much too hot for me. Fortunately, the condos we stayed in had AC. I can't stand the heat here in the summer! AC is essential to my comfort.

Thank you, I will order some. It seems I was looking in the wrong place, I thought the hocks mentioned were from Edward's.

I looked for hocks at their website but couldn't find any; do you have to call to order?

Thinking about St. Patrick's Day coming up I'm all about making Soda Breads. KAF is featuring a new recipe that I haven't yet tried but it is on my list.... Cabot Cheddar Soda Bread as well as: Rye Soda Bread and then there's my all-time favorite can't-be-beat American Irish Soda Bread

At one of the Elmer's restaurants in Portland we used to be able get Dungeness Crab Benedict in season...It was wonderful!

Magnitude!!! HA!

I hand wash a few things every day....pots and pans, knives and glassware. If I didn't hand wash my glasses I'd never have any clean ones since I only run the d/w about once a week or so. I have two of these: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B014FVDJ0M/ref=twister_B0089A2M2C?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 so there's always a clean one when the other needs laundering. The water beads up on top so they dry very quickly. There's no standing water and no musty odors.

If I saw snakes (especially live ones) in the grocery store I'd have to head for the door, just like I did when I first saw TONGUE!!!! And BRAINS! I live a sheltered life.

Dinner last night was an Instant Pot recipe for short ribsr and it was amazing. I'll be having some of the leftover beef as well as the mashed potatoes tonight along with a slice of my freshly baked bread. Can't wait for my IP corned beef dinner coming soon.

Since I’m usually cooking for just one, I use my mini lots more than my 6-qt. IP. So the lid for the mini will be really useful for all those times I use it to steam and slow cook. Love the smaller footprint of the mini.

I see that Amazon now has the glass lid sized for the IP Mini that I've been waiting for! Don't know if it's available for shipping to Canada.

I am SO making this!!!

I had your problem with my LC software when I got my Win10 desktop. I uninstalled then reinstalled and then it was fine though I was for a time terrified that I’d lose all of my thousands of recipes I’d saved for many years. Now I just backup often and keep my fingers crossed, I've not heard anything about new activity within Living Cookbook in a couple of years and I haven't heard of anything equivalent and new coming along either. I'm fortunate mine still works, I'd be devastated to lose all I've saved.

A small Mexican restaurant nearby doesn't have a proper license to sell beer or wine but does offer non-alcoholic beer. I tried one and it was surprisingly good but maybe because I didn't expect very much. That restaurant closed and I've never tried na beer again since I can get the good stuff anyplace.

I rarely eat dessert at all but I only eat restaurant dessert when I go to Outback...I cannot resist Thunder Down Under.

My dream kitchen has Sub Zero. In my dreams only.

A favorite snacking item here is Anderson's peanut butter filled pretzel nuggets! Love those things. Available at Costco and other major stores.
