also with cooking grains, not just cook them on the cook top with two parts water, one part grain, you can bake grains. i complain a lot about many different things.i miss a lot of people who are not in my life any more. thus need something new from you as suggestion. also cant use pods/flings in it because plastic will not fully dissolve. they even added an outside covered deck that was a nice place to kick back and enjoy some 'q. the sooner we get over and done with it, the better.
