I used to cook with an old 6 qt Instant Pot. One of the lower-tech models circa 2016. I loved cooking with it and find myself wanting to get one again.

I am considering purchasing a Rio 4 qt for the smaller footprint, lighter weight, and lower price. I'm interested in making curries/stews with about 2 pounds of meat as well as batch-cooking some bone broth. I'm especially curious about the yield I'd get from trying to make bone broth. I'm a single person so I don't need a huge amount of food. Will this work in the 4qt or should I just get the 6qt?

My ring is too tight to take off most of the time, especially in the summer. Only way I can take it off is with lotion. I’ve had a bigger size in the past but it was much too loose. The issue I have is moisture lingers under the ring because I don’t take it off when I wash. Any suggestions?

I wish we could have met Kirk’s 12 brothers and sisters. That could have been an amazing episode.

I used to get my upper lip waxed or threaded. Unfortunately, now both of those hair removal techniques will cause me folliculitis no matter what I seem to do. So, I got those little dermaplaning razors and have been using those instead. They're fine but the results just don't last very long. I've also been reading a lot about dermaplaning and how you should wait for several days after sun exposure to do it, then wear sunscreen after. Seems like I'd constantly be avoiding the sun!

Does anyone else do dermplaning for their upper lip? Is it ok to do it frequently? Do I need to be as cautious about sun exposure as I'm reading online?
