The Latest......

Hi Everyone!

You may have noticed I didn't quite get to my whole plan this week.  In fact, I didn't get very far at all this week! :(  So sorry.  Unfortunately, the doctor told me this week I really need to be on bed rest with privileges to go to the bathroom only.  This means I may have to put my Crock Pot cooking off to the side for a little bit.  WHAT AM I GOING TO DO FOR DINNER?!!!  Ahhhhh!!!!  My goal is to make at least 1 recipe a week from now until the baby comes.  I know it's not a lot, but at least it will give me a chance to keep up a little bit with my blog as opposed to not at all.

I apologize for any inconvenience, but please remember, there are LOTS more recipes on my blog than appear when you first visit the page.  You can search for specific recipes on the right hand side of the page, or you can go month by month and see what I've made.

If you ever have any questions about any of the recipes, please feel free to post under the comments section, or send me an email!  I'm here.....just waiting (no seriously!!! I literally have nothing else to do these days!!)

For those of you wanting to make a new Crock Pot purchase for Christmas, or are asking for one from your hubby, boyfriends, girlfriends, parents or inlaws (or anyone else I forgot!), remember, I recommend sticking with the Crock Pot brand Crock Pot with just the manual dial.  The ones with the timers cook WAY faster, so it's not really "slow cooking!"  PLUS, they are much CHEAPER!  Whoot!  If there's just one of you, go with the 4 Quart Crock Pot.  For a family of 2-3, the 6 Quart would be great!  For a family of 3 or more, go with the big daddy 7 Quart!  You won't be sorry!  Think of all the leftovers you'll have!!!!!

Remember, they do make liners for the Crock Pot for those of you who are super busy.  I'm actually adding them to my grocery list for the first time!  I have a few friends who have been using them, but now that my poor hubby is literally doing EVERYTHING, I think it's only fair he not have to clean the Crock Pot too!  He can just toss the liner and clean everything else up!  LOL  I believe they are probably next to the plastic baggies and so forth.  If I'm wrong, please correct me!  (Maja, I know you buy them all the time, so maybe you can confirm!)

Happy Crock-Potting!
Hope
