I have never had a pressure cooker, and after reading your post, don't plan on getting one. HaHa. You and Louis Dean are my daily entertainment. Who needs reality shows. HaHa.<br /><br />I love blackeyed peas, and my cousin in Fresno grows them, and gives me frozen packages for the freezer. I've never seen that cornbread at Trader Joes....I'll stick to the real thing.<br /><br />Hugs.Wandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06941735389982354519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6622758739580732797.post-9758801359714575152017-01-02T12:05:54.192-06:002017-01-02T12:05:54.192-06:00How many demerits did LD get for this shenanigan? ...How many demerits did LD get for this shenanigan? :) I've always been so afraid of pressure cookers! My mother used them for canning eons ago but she scared me so I was afraid to even be in the kitchen when she had it on the stove.<br /><br />I'm so sorry about Danna...and I will certainly pray for her and Pam. It's heartbreaking to see anyone go through that.<br /><br />Glad you had a great day!

Our daughter got one of the new electric pressure cookers (Instapot) for Christmas and she loves it. You can set it and go off and do other things and I guess it turns off when it's done!Janhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10314254638454546970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6622758739580732797.post-70122703855779367662017-01-02T08:57:19.158-06:002017-01-02T08:57:19.158-06:00Linda, Yes, yes, I will pray for your family.

Your Summer is a sweetheart, I think she takes after you. :):) I think of pressure cooker as bombs just waiting to explode....they scare me. I have never owned one because of stories just like you told us today. Who wants to be cleaning like that....not me girl. I am not telling LD that cooker in the trash. LOL.

I could not use one because I forget I am cooking to. you lead such and exciting life. laughing my head off.. but would not be if I had to clean up the mess. <br />We had blackeyes and I forgot to soak. this is what I did, found it on the peas.<br />Bring peas to a boil, add hambone, let soak for one hour, bring to a boil then put on simmer and they are done in less than 3 hours.<br />I soaked from 8 to 9, and simmered to 12 and voila, new years black eyes for lunchMadSnapperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08163140037276496519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6622758739580732797.post-40701384953054431482017-01-02T07:30:15.575-06:002017-01-02T07:30:15.575-06:00...been there, done that!!

When I was a child women used to can garden produce using those big heavy pressure cookers and they would sometimes explode and scald a woman. My mother used one and also the regular size we use today. Good to see Summer's smiling face. Where on earth did you keep that puzzle for a year, especially with the quads around? I always thought it would be fun to keep a puzzle going but I never did.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11586429675286969340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6622758739580732797.post-13739903426844993582017-01-01T22:23:22.562-06:002017-01-01T22:23:22.562-06:00We were just talking about getting a pressure cook...We were just talking about getting a pressure cooker but they scare me.
