I have the new Cakemix doctor cookbook so it is sooo easy. Not only is the Crockpot my favorite but have just discovered I can use my new silconeware bundt pan to make a cake in the crockpot.

I went to target to buy one. The little 3 quart ones are 19.99, but if you want a 5 quart, it is 39.99 and a 6 quart is 49.99. I could just buy two 3 quart crock pots and save ten dollars! I found this pretty frustrating, so I gave up and left :) I really want a crock pot. I went to target to buy one.

Just this week I used my crock pot TWICE! I made a pretty sweet (and SO easy) pot roast, and then I made barbequeued pulled pork for sandwiches! Better than Famous Dave's: Karl has coined the term: "Infamous Maren". It's crock pot season now, and I'm looking for more recipes. I think I want to use it every day that I can: it is the most wonderful invention! OOOH! Just this week I used my crock pot TWICE!

My sister gave me a programmable one for Christmas last year and I love it because it automatically shuts off after the alloted time - no burning if I am late getting home!!! Although I originally made fun of them, I really love my George Foreman (another Christmas gift from the same sister several years ago). The original gift was the small one which caused me to really want a larger one so I didn't have to cook one thing at a time. So recently, I purchase the large one with the removable cooking plates you can put in the dishwasher! I think I'm in love!!!! : ))) I would have to agree on the crock pot.

Dude, Maren, you can adapt pretty much anything to the CrockPot. Soups are great, you can do quite a few casseroles, and sauces to put on top of ric work pretty well, too. Taco meat or spaghetti sauce made ahead of time...oh yah. :) I have not yet ventured into George Foreman-dom or DeepFatFryerWorld yet...but it seems the grill thing is really catching on. Did you guys see that they are now making disposable CrockPot liners???? What an amazing idea. I actually had that idea a couple of weeks ago but someone beat me to it. Anyone try those yet? (Kirsten, we're almost in casserole blog territory right now!) Lol…you guys are hilarious. Dude, Maren, you can adapt pretty much anything to the CrockPot.

I love my rubber scrapper. It is my favorite thing in my kitchen to use. Sometimes I ignore the mixer and blender and reach for my rubber scrapper. The other day at work I was using one and it snapped! I was over come with thoughts about what I would do if that ever happened to my beloved. Then I realized it was about 2 dollars at Target and went on with my day. :) This isn’t really an appliance but it is a utensil- rubber scrapper. I love my rubber scrapper.
