Fresh produce is completely raw, frozen is typically parboiled (very slightly cooked), and canned is completely cooked. Frozen is typically the best balance between freshness and convenience. The only veggies I buy fresh are things I’m going to eat raw, like broccoli for eating with dips.

I read your name as Coffee Jerky and honestly I would absolutely try that.

I strongly recommend Bully Tools for shovels and other garden tools. I bought the most heavy duty shovel home depot had on the shelf and broke it two hours into my project. The bully tools shovel handled the same work no problem. I have two shovels, a rake, and a hoe from them.

Stripping popcorn ceiling

Doesn’t sound like much

These are mutually exclusive. The best case scenario for popcorn ceiling is that it’s a tedious pain to remove, and it only gets worse from there (painted, asbestos, etc.)

Yes, max pressure. My model instant pot doesn’t have different pressure settings and it comes out great.

Instant pot rice:

-Wash rice several times, more if you want to avoid the rice all sticking together. Drain thoroughly after each wash.

-For rice that typically uses 2 cups of water per cup of rice, like long grain rice or basmati rice, add 1 1/4 cups (1.25 cups) of water per cup of rice.

-Pressure cook for six minutes.

-Natural release for at least ten minutes, more is also okay.

-Fluff rice before serving.

This works perfectly every time for me and is just as good as the fancy rice maker I used to have. I haven’t made rice on the stove in years. Even when I was making it on the stove, it was never this good, and definitely never this consistent.
