Hope you feel betterI got back from my vacation to Salem and Boston yesterday afternoon and I seem to have brought back a cold. So today I've been taking it easy as I deal with the cold. Thankfully it seems to just be a cold because I've been testing negative for Covid. I did order groceries and went and picked them up. I also had a psychiatry appointment and therapy appointment earlier and I'll probably be going to bed early. I took tomorrow off work because I'm not feeling great, so I can at least sleep in.
The one I got was a cast Iron ceramic 3.5 quart dutch oven. I wanted a smaller size for a couple of reasons: Weight, and the fact that it is just me, whom I will be cooking for. I do not need a 5 quart dutch oven. I wanted one which I could put a pot roast in, and cook in the oven. I can us it for other things also. I have a full set of Faberware, which I have had for many many years. The only thing with the Faberware is that they cannot go into the oven because of the handles.artiemom Glad you're feeling better! I love Tramontina cookware! I've had mine now for a good ten-plus years and it's really good stuff. America's Test Kitchen did a test on stainless and, of course, All Clad came out in first place. But Tramontina was a very close second and for a much cheaper price. The only thing ATK didn't like was that the pieces were smaller than All Clad; most of the time, it's just Rick and me, so that was not a problem. Their stainless is a work horse, IMO. Works well and cleans very well. I have both All Clad and Tramontina in my kitchen and you can't tell them apart.
- Breakfast for the girls, emptied the dishwasher, checked on tomatoes, grabbed a quick shower, and am sitting back here with my coffee. Mollipop started coughing last night, so I got up with her and petted her and talked to her til she was OK again. She came down to between Rick and me from her pillow behind my head, curled up, and went back to sleep. When Tabby awakened me for breakfast, Molli was still there. Didn't take her long to get up, though, once I got out of bed!
No, not really. I found out today that they were calling specific people, to attend the meeting. I think the personal invitation was to make sure their were people in the group--- and not an empty room...artiemom Sounds like you are a hit at your apt building!!
