Now we're cookin'

[kellinator]

Almost a year after getting the damn thing, this morning I finally fired up the Crock-Pot. I'll be finding out how it went after the Hands on Atlanta orientation (which I am really excited about!). It's some sort of chicken curry stewie thing with some standards (tomatoes, potatoes, carrots) and lots of weird extras (portobello mushrooms, kidney beans, garlic, ginger, hominy. Does anyone even know what hominy is?). I figure it'll be either a startling success or a dismal failure. Well, I guess I can always feed it to the cat. Or Geena, ay, alanator?

I know what hominy is!! I just wanted to see if anyone else did. (More precisely, it's corn treated in lye. I'm not quite sure how it's edible, but it's good.)

If you guys break out the Crock-Pot, then we can trade recipes! I just bought the Fix-It-and-Forget-It Cookbook but I'm not sure how good it's going to be.

Actually, I've heard that's one of the best slow cooker cookbooks. We have a more generic one with a title something like Crock-Pot Cooking.

You'll be the first third to know as soon as we cook something in it!

Maybe we should start a Crock-Pot community!!

I've been letting that idea....err...."simmer" in my mind. . . You know, I think people would definitely join that!
