    I just ordered mine today, Prime Day! Got it for $60! Woot! Have you been using yours?

    Do you have to be a Prime member to get the deals?

    Yep, but it's 'Prime Day' so I think you can get a trial.

    InstantPot 7 whatever - model...You guys have me convinced

    $142 at the current rate. I have to buy from amazon.de or .uk to get 220v unit - I don't want a big transformer sitting on my counter.

If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.

    Are the groups you saw all "closed"? I just did a search and was surprised to see I can get more recipes from others on FB, while I shouldn't be though. PM me with any groups that are worth joining!!

    @jimnyc Look at the crap you started here, asshat. Now we got the damned cooking channel on the board. I will never understand you peeps that are in love with food. I can't ever find anything nutritional to eat around here. It's all junk. I have to go get something.

    And I am by no means a health nut. I eat stuff that ain't exactly on the healthy list, but just pure sh*t? Nah. And I don't eat sweets. I might have ice cream about once a year, if that.

    Actually cooking one's own food and planning for it is how to eliminate 'nothing nutritional around here,' as a problem. Usually I have a choice of 3 or 4 different entrees and 1 or 2 soups in my freezer. I also have the option of making something fresh I just purchased. Saves time, money and is certainly healthier than running around trying to 'find something' while hungry.

    When I was cooking for 4-7 near every day, I did near all the cooking on weekends and making portions when the kids had weird schedules. When I ran low or just wanted something 'just cooked' out came the crockpot the night before. Prepped everything, put crock in the fridge, plugged in at 6am when I left for school. I never felt like 'cooking' when I got home, I'd do it if I had to, but never wanted to.

    The choice is not mine, ma'am. I'm not the one that gets catered to. When I had it my way, I'd have a steak and baked potato on the grill in a second. That means at most I have A plate to wash. And going all jarhead, they trip out I'll cook Ramen noodles and eat them out of the pan. I don't need a separate special bowl. And you should have seen the looks on their faces when I ate ravioli out of the can. Priceless.

    I don't see the need for 10,000 dishes to make some crap I ain't gonna eat anyway, then wonder why I just gave up on washing dishes.
