~Crock Pot Mama~

My new Crock Pot!

So recently I have been obsessed with cooking out of the crock pot, I don't know why? It could  possibly have something do with the fact that there are so many delicious crock pot recipes on Pinterest?!..hmm yup that would make sense. So this fall and even bits and pieces of this summer I have made numerous meals that it has become an obsession! An obsession so deep that I feel the need to make every single part of our family's meals out of a crock pot! But how can i do that with one crock pot? Well that would be an easy answer! GO BUY MORE CROCK POTS KIMBERLY!!....Yes I shall!..So I gave in to that little person on my shoulder and convinced by awesome hubbs to buy me one! And so he did!!!..Problem Solved!

So to give you some background info, (because I wasnt always a fan)... Wil and I got our very first crock pot the first year we were married from my parents for Christmas. I used it once, maybe twice and i actually think Wil was the one who used it to make Pork Roast and Sauerkraut. I at the point had no desire to cook, so i really didn't take interest in CPC (Crock Pot Cooking), because for some odd reason I thought it was complicated..What the heck was wrong with me?!?! crock pot cooking is so freaking easy! and thats why I love it today.

With my precious little Lando its hard to spend hours in the kitchen making a gourmet meal, but thanks to Pinterest it has changed my life! and with a bibity bobity boom, dinner is served! I found that I can make mostly anything in Crock Pot! It's freakishly AMAZING..And I have now taken it to the next level and made pre-made crock pot meals that I gathered and made into a Zip lock bag and froze, so on my lazy days I just dump it into my crock pot and we have dinner for the night!..AMAZING!..I even started using slow cooker liners, which has taken it to an even HIGHER level!! Because the only thing I would say I EVER disliked about CPC was the cleanup!..omg it was horrible, I would usually have to let it sit over night in soapy water, scrub and put my back into it just to get it clean!.. It was so much maintenance!..And now I' am so thankful for those darn liners! and thankful that I have a second crock pot!..because now I never have to clean MUAHAHA!!..jk jk

Yup! I was like a little girl on Christmas!

Nothing like taking cooking to the next level!..I know I'm a freak!..but hey atleast I' am feeding my family!..and that's what it is all about!....
