For years I didn't mind it. Then a couple years ago got very tired of cooking. Mr stitchnripper was still working and I was retired so thought I could have a meal of sorts when he got home. He is not a fussy eater and what he usually got was some kind of meat cooked on the George Foreman grill and a bag of vegetables steamed in the microwave. He never complained and always said thank you and cleaned up the kitchen. Now we are both retired and I have discovered the fun of cooking in the Instant Pot. I feel rejuvenated. He is thrilled. He still cleans up and sometimes says "if I go get the ingredients will you make such and such in the Instant Pot." Yes I could teach him to use it. But really I don't mind. I don't like to eat out too often. Too fattening for us. We both love leftovers too.
