Oh Crockpot how I love thee....
I love to look at it simmering away all day
Telling me not to worry -- dinner is taken care of.
When I am ready something warm and delicious (hopefully)
will be waiting for me to consume.
It tells me, "It's okay. Get all of your other things done.
I've got it covered."
It tells me, "Don't worry. I won't burn it."
It tells me,...."Stop acting like an idiot that talks with a Crockpot."

Okay, so it really doesn't tell me anything, but I do love to look at it cooking away all day on my countertop. It brings me a small bit of happiness and joy. Is that so wrong?! Nay, I say.
There are so many great things to cook in a Crockpot, but a new one that I tried recently comes from my friend Beautiful Brenda.
She told me how to crockpot a turkey breast. I have to say I had my doubts, but it was DELICIOUS!!! No dry turkey! If you are a person that likes crispy turkey skin, then this is not for you. But,...if you are a person that discards the skin anyway, then you ought to try it.
BASIC INSTRUCTIONS:
{Slice up one onion and layer the bottom. Salt & pepper the outside and the inside liberally. Let her rip for 6 or 8 hours. } Sorry. No photos here.
I cooked it one day and had it for dinner. Then I ate the leftovers on salad and sandwiches all week. I even froze some for soup later on. It was a great success. Thanks Brenda.If you too love the crockpot, check out this blog here for lots of recipes.
And... Thanks Crockpot!

hehehe....you're in love with your crockpot. I like it. And I still am going to try that turkey breast thing. It sounds delicious. It sounds even more delicious when I think of me eating it after someone else has cooked it. :)
You are such a funny girl! I think that maybe you have a career in soap opera screen writing. Although I don't know how many people want to watch SAHM's talking to their favorite appliances -- but it's worth a shot!
Oh & thanks for the recipe I will try it for sure!
hee hee . . . nay, I say . . . funny stuff! I love my crockpot, but I haven't been very good to it. I really need to go check out this blog. So much easier when someone else has compiled all the recipes into one place! I use that one of Lori's a lot, but I need MORE!! Thanks BJ! And P.S. I love your writing, your "voice", and the fact that your crockpot calls you an idiot (shame on you, crockpot!). Must. Move. Closer!
Thanks for the info. I love my crockpot, too. There is nothing like coming home from church on Sundays to the smell of pork roast in the crockpot. mmmmmm my mouth is watering!

Funny funny girl. Love ya lot's and lot's you little crockpot lover.
I have a great idea, you try lots of recipes and let me know which ones to make, OR-----come on up and show me, by example!!
