What is the coolest thing you bought in 2020? [I Wish Everyone a Happy New Year]

Miklee02 · 51-55, F
New windows and doors for my house
ohhhh to the tune of $26k .... how cool is that 😎✌️
Miklee02 · 51-55, F
@Spokeskitties75 damn boy! I had a range and microwave ordered since October and they keep pushing me off until I said fuck it.... cancel it!
Soooo now I’ll have to wait and look again and order one at a time..... cause if you buy more than one appliance they will not deliver til both are there and ready but in the meantime they will fill other orders with the appliance that are there and by the time the back order item is in the other is gone and you end up waiting again..... my temper got the best of me and I cancelled and got my money back .... 🙄
@Miklee02 our contractor took care of everything and all were on time and delivered as needed

@Bella112 That’s a nice way to say it. I have a few in the backyard and I enjoy just relaxing out there with themin the nice weather.

We’re doing renovations to our house! We are just about ready to finish the bathroom got the sink and vanity today! My husband will finish tileing the walls we got a new bathtub new toilet new sink new window and new tile floor. Plus we painted all of the bedrooms and living room! Bought a gorgeous sectional sofa and a new aquarium and catery towers for the cats! Plus we got some super soft throw blankets for the sectional you’ll feel like a million bucks! Plus we put new shingles on the roof! Oh and I just about forgot we got a new stainless steel gas stove and built in dishwasher

Ninja Foodi pressure cooker air fryer steamer crock pot combo. Pretty amazing. I can pressure cook a small chicken, brush it with oil and herbs, and then crisp the skin to perfections in 30 minutes.
4meAndyou · F
@cherokeepatti It's perfectly cooked after 15 minutes in the pressure cooker...but then you want to brush it with oil and crisp the skin, and that is like baking it for 15 minutes in a small 400 degree oven. You could not fit an oven stuffer roaster in there, by any means.
cherokeepatti · 61-69, F
@4meAndyou what else do you cook in it?
4meAndyou · F
@cherokeepatti It was the first time I tried to use it. I stalled because I didn't read the directions when I first got it. It's a steamer, so you can steam anything you want. I want to try air frying sweet potatoes in it. It's a pressure cooker, so you can cut down cooking time on almost anything, casseroles, and even cakes!

It's also a crock pot, so I can use it for long, slow cooking to develop flavors. All fish and seafood can be cooked in a pressure cooker, and on Master Chef, I noted one of the cooks who was able to make risotto in the allotted time pressure cooked the rice first, and then sauteed it as you normally would.

Two backwards compatible PS3's in pristine condition.


I know I'm weird lol
Beatbox34 · 31-35, M
@Stereoguy About 180$ for both which is well worth it given how rare they are now.

@Bella112 I mean they were introduced in 2006 for a price tag of 600$. Most of the units died or were scrapped.

Given how rare these are, these may shoot up in value and even if they don't, it's cool to own a weird piece of history.

Mini Palmiers, in my youth they were larger and more tasty and called elephant ears but the ones I ate brought back good childhood memories.
Bella112 · 36-40, F
@Pfuzylogic I get it! Yesterday at the market I bought some food my father used to cook for us, just to remember him.
Pfuzylogic · M
@Bella112
The memories are very strong and the new packaged ones don’t come close to the fresh ones I ate in my youth. They were larger with huge grains of sugar and cinnamon mixed in.
