That sounds wonderful Lara.
I use my slow cooker all the time. Hubby and Lil'Monkey get home so late sometimes. It makes it easier to a pot of something, than to make dinner for lonley ole me, put away the mass amount of leftovers, just to get them all back hour3 hours later. Then clean up again.
I have even made a cake in mine. The trick to most of the desserts is to put paper towles under the lid, to catch the extra moisture, so you don't end up with puddings. lol.
