under pressure.

Cindy posted this today. Now I totally want a pressure cooker. Add this to the list of stuff that I want from Williams Sonoma/Bed Bath & Beyond/anywhere that sells cooking stuff. I’m not sure if I was intrigued because she made it sound easy, or because I bought a cook book of pressure cooker recipes 3 years ago and never opened it (it was on clearance for $1, I figured I would need it eventually), or because she was talking about enchiladas, which Pete loves when I make them, but boiling chicken to get it to shred nicely is disgusting. If I had a pressure cooker, the chicken would take better, it would be done faster, and it would be hassle free. I could take care of everything else while it was in there.

If anyone cares – this is my choice because it seems like the best one for me

pie cont.

Ok, it has been an exhausting week, but as promised – here is my pie adventure – documented

Old fashioned Lard-Crust recipe – all lard. Next time I might do a little butter substituted. The crust was almost TOO flaky. Nice and easy Fruit Pie recipe from the back of the tapioca box…only 3 cups of strawberries, 3 cups of rhubarb.

Delicious!
