Thoughtfulness is Beautiful and Beef Bourguignon in the Instant Pot

Does your husband/significant other surprise you with either gifts or nights/weekends away?  I hope he/she does.  I am so incredibly blessed to have one that does.  It may be something small like my favourite chocolate bar on a Friday night to enjoy with a movie, it could be something that he knows I have had…
