Where can you buy one?

Well, the ladies are working on that. They’ve just entered discussions with a manufacturer to start producing the pot.

    So impressed with how you share your discoveries with us…. not taking credit but giving others a chance to “shine” featuring their clever inventions. Thanks for all the great hints and ideas… your hard work is what America is all about: the ‘homey work ethic” and great relational skills. God bless you and your family!
