Pressure Cooker

I’ve wanted one for a long time.  I have absolutely no idea how they work.  I have no idea why I thought I had to have one.  Or, what would I do with it.  Well, as of today I am the proud owner of a pressure cooker.  Today was “yard sales” at everyone’s lot here in Outdoor Resorts in Indio, CA.  The golf cart was fully charged and I backed it out of our lot at 8 AM in search of purchases I couldn’t live without.  Of course, I had no money.  I never have any cash…but I took my check book in case I could convince someone there was money in the account.  Ta dah!  I hit the jackpot.  I found not only a pressure cooker but they also had corelle dishes.  The pressure cooker was $10.00 and the corelle dishes for 8 was $5.00!!  She agreed to the check only if I replaced it for cold hard cash.  Well, I knew I couldn’t get cash from Tim since I’m the one who doles out $$ to him.  I could always go to the store and get “cash back” but I was too lazy to leave the resort.  We had dinner with friends last night who said “I can spot you…just let me know what you need.”  So, putting the golf cart in go…I found out how fast that puppy could go.  You see, my friends were out and about checking on yard sales too.  Took awhile to track them down…but ended up not as hard as I thought it would be since the batteries died on their golf cart and they were an easy find dead in the street!!  He gave me 2 $20’s…I only needed $15.00…so I had money left over to buy a coffee pot, coffee grinder and 8 cups. 

I think pressure cookers can blow their top if you don’t follow the directions closely.  I’ll let you know.
