Maryann, I'm glad to hear the kids are making the most of it. I hope they get to enjoy their experience.
Jean, you may hate me for this, but I'm going to trump Maryann's weather statement. It was such a glorious day today, I considered getting a lawn chair and taking a nap in the sun. Temps were almost 70 and will be this way through Friday! I may get that lawn chair yet!
Due to the pretty weather, I considered grilling, but I couldn't think of what to cook. Then I remembered my lovely mashed potatoes and peas from the disaster Sunday. Then I remembered by yet to be tried instant pot! Grabbed a chuck roast and put on pot roast. Fingers crossed. So far I was impressed with the searing feature. To be honest I had my doubts about that. William was even impressed.
Okay, super impressed! A tender flavorful pot roast in an hour? Even William was in awe! He said it's the best kitchen gadget I've had yet! Thanks for the referral all.....and especially Denise for posting the link for the super sale on Amazon, making it possibles for Ashley to get it for my Christmas present!
