That's excellent news, Theo! The insurance alone is a huge plus.
I know someone asked before, but is there a difference between a crockpot and a slow cooker?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm pretty sure crockpot is actually a brand name, TM.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
It is.

I have to see if my mother still has her crockpot, or if it went away in the big purge of moving. I just found a bunch more recipes I want to try.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Amy, this site (A Year of Slow Cooking) has some great recipes: [link] There's a vegetarian lasagna that I've made twice now, and it's excellent.
I also use the crock pot to make chili, for no other real reason than I feel safer walking away from a crock pot for hours, but not from a vat on a stove burner. It's not logical, but then neither am I.

Erin, I e-mailed my librarian teammates to see if they knew of any suitable positions for your sister.

Yeah, there's no way I could walk away from a pot on the stove. No illogical! At least not to me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
People don't make actual "pound" cake anymore do they?
Don't they? I have no idea. Why not?
I do walk away from vats on burners, but I feel bad about it. And I wouldn't, say, leave one cooking all day while I was at work. Slowcookers have built in safety features, it's not illogical to think they are safer.
