When I was young, I remember mom using the Crockpot at least once a week (or maybe my memory is deluded by...well, who knows what). I know she used it though. And - with the exception of hash and tomatos - I liked nearly everything my mom cooked.
Yesterday I made my first out-of-the-house-crockpot-on-all-day meal. Well, main course at least. I'm sure lots of you have heard about this blog. I luuuuuuvh it. I made this chicken recipe and it was FREAKIN' TASTY. Add in a little rice and brocollini (have you tried that yet? also fantastic). Badah Bing! Dinner. :)
The only downside was that Hubster didn't get home until 8:15 and I was starving by about 7:45. So I ate all by my lonesome. Well, with Wrendog...but he's not allowed near the table when we're eating.
Oh, and I must confess. I left work early because I was so nervous about having a cooking appliance on at home while I was gone. But I won't be such a nut-case next time. Promise.
Gabu, I know that you've busted out the crockpot...anyone else out there love theirs? What is your favorite recipe?
I too am in loooove with my crock pot! This is my favorite website for all things crock pot: http://crockpot365.blogspot.com/

I'm glad to know I have a friend with the same irrational "crockpots can burn down the house" fear...however, I am moving past it and love love LOVING mine! What is the blog you are talking about?? I made country style steak in mine the other day...mmmm...
