Instant Pot Baby Back Pork Barbeque


I found a new love affair.  The kinda affair that my husband would approve. HaHaHa.

At first I thought I was going to curse myself for falling into this allowing myself be awed and astounded. To be honest, I was afraid to try it but I gave in. And even though many told me that it's gonna cost me, I didn't listen to them.

So, YES, I wasn't sorry that I tried it and I can't wait for our next engagement.

Okay, Okay, I'm not into some sort of adulterous affair, I'm writing about how I feel with the first time I used my Instant Pot DUO60 6 Qt.

I've had it for a long time, but I was sure scared I might not be able to understand how to use it, coz well, it's nifty high-tech.  It's not like your typical rice cooker with just one button to push.  Instant Pot DUO60 6 Qt is a 7-in-1 Multi-Use Programmable Pressure Cooker, Slow Cooker, Rice Cooker, Steamer, Sauté, Yogurt Maker and Warmer, built in with digital buttons up front for the different cooking features.


Why wouldn't I fall in love with it, can you see how beautifully it sits on my kitchen counter top?

 I've seen the raves over Instant Pot® in the US and many home-cooks would attest to it's usefulness and practicality.  Imagine having a smart pressure cooker, a cooker where you can make porridge, cakes and even yogurt.

For my first dish cooked in my new thyngamajig therefore is something I hardly cook as it would take me two to three hours to slow cook- bbq baby back ribs.

True Pleasure with the NEW Magnum Macadamia Salted Caramel


Rasabeth Moss Kanter once said "I've found that small wins, small projects, small differences often make huge differences."

Seeking out moments of pleasure in our everyday lives is but normal, we often want to reward ourselves for small highs to big wins.

Why not!?

When you hear of grazing boxes or grazing tables, le Aperitif is one of names that would instantly stand out.

I first heard and saw their amazing boxes at Instagram and it is the top choice among party hostessess.  And when I heard about them opening up a store at SM Aura in BGC, I got excited to visit.
