One of my SiLs thinks an air fryer is the best thing since sliced bread the other hardly every uses it and it's another gadget collecting dust :-0 :-0

I like my slow cooker better than the air fryer.

I was gobsmacked a few years ago to discover that my sis did all her Sunday vegies in her pressure cooker. I shall have to ask her whether she still does that when I see her next week.

New pipes, Belle, and he's coming to slide a plastic one inside the original one I have in my garage leading to the meter. (or something like that - my tech knowledge is non-existent!)

I had a big crockpot that I'd had for years but swapped it for a smaller one that my daughter got before she had Luke.

I love dumplings done in the crockpot but always had to cooks two lots separately because K needed gluten-free food. <3

I have ordered smart meters, Belle, as it is difficult for me to read the leccy one - it's so high up in a corner I need the stepladder and I ain't a young flibbertigibbet any more. ;-)
