I neither posses nor covet a Control Freak, but I love my Paragons. Next to my APO the Paragons are what I use most for cooking.

I notice from reading the FAQ on the anova Alexa skill that you can ask Alexa to "Air fry my vegetables." Which proves the APO is an air fryer.

I use licorice for ice cream.

The canned bacon in question was product of Denmark. In the well more than 70 years I have been American, I have never seen nor been served canned bacon, save in Britain. One has to have a taste for small bones and cartilage.

"Not half bad" == "more than half good". Under what swamp did you grow up?

1969

Quite literally I threw up after being forced to dine on post war canned asparagus. My palate never again approached asparagus until the 1970's. Sort of like the canned bacon my English hostess served on my first visit to Great Britain. Only by then I was polite enough to partially suppress the gag reflex. @liuzhou has assured me British bacon is not like this. I do not believe him.

That sounds not half bad.

FOMO?

When I turned on the computer there was a notice that my beans have been delivered. I am afraid to go downstairs. Beans (I have no idea what kind) on the menu for tonight.

Is "Bar" Catalan or Spanish?

Factory reset is your friend.

I never realized there was such a thing as filters.

How do you exclude soups?

Having just eaten another bowl of it, the blender pastry cream is really good.

I am on 1.1.23. I am being prompted to install 1.1.32.

My APO is anxious to install a new update. I am not sure if it is a fixed release or the same one that caused all the recent troubles. In any event my dinner is cold tonight.

From the label in the picture there is what looks like a zipcode. Zipcodes weren't invented till 1963. It is unlikely the Presto is as much as 60 years old, although it may be getting close. I wish I could find parts for my old Cuisinart pressure cooker.

But performing the factory reset stopped the oven from power cycling and disconnected WiFi, which is why I got to eat my chicken thigh.

You stole my reply. I can almost taste the salt.

I seldom employ the anova app if only because it turns my screen upside down which causes me to lose my appetite.* However peeking in the app just now I see my APO firmware* is currently 1.1.23 and "up to date". I believe 1.1.23 is the previous working version. Apparently the globally offending firmware update has been pulled and desecrated. I'd hate to be in the shoes of whomever signed off on that. *idiots. **I almost wrote "my firmware" however firmware support for me ended some while ago.

I believe so but you would have had to do the factory reset first to clear the offending firmware. Thankfully my dinner turned out fine.* *well, except for the wretched peas (not cooked in the APO).

Now that my blender pastry cream is fully chilled, the sweetness and vanilla are OK. Thickness is as I would expect. Texture is delightful.

All I asked for was my dinner. Tonight the APO decided to install new firmware. Whatever I set it to, after a minute or so the oven would reset. I did a factory reset, and set up as a new oven. Same problem. I did the factory reset again but this time I asked it, please, please, not to install new firmware. My dinner is cooking. It remains to be seen if I shall eat. And, yes, the obnoxious oven light is flashing. Thankfully the window on the oven door is too grease splattered to notice much.
