Actually Used The Slow Cooker

[sherrardk]

After putting it off for two weeks I plucked up the courage and used my slow cooker today. Didn't think it was actually going to cook the food so faffed about with it and lifted the lid far too often but it actually worked. Now just need to find some more recipes I like the look of.

Good thinking Humber, know I sound like a control freak, but tea time is tea time (I do chill out on holidays though).

I actually ate some and I never eat what I cook for everyone else (I doubled up everything).

I switch mine on in the morning, and it goes off when we are ready to eat, never had a problem yet, and we eat about 6pm usually
