Smonster - well lime juice and oil and picante sauce are liquids. If you want more you can use honey instead of brown sugar. But the onions and the tomatoes will make their own liquid. To some extent so will the mustard greens. You can chop the tomatoes to make sure they release their juice. My experience is that slow cooked veggies don't turn out dry. In fact you will want to check them 3.5 to 4 hours in to see if they are too liguid. If it is looking more like soup than casserole, that is the point at which you add corn meal to thicken. If it is too dry you can add a couple of teaspoons of wine.But I've never had that happen with mustard greens.
I go online sometimes, but everyone's spelling is really bad. It's... depressing.

Unless I want soup, I don't add liquids - apart from flavors I want to add - to crock pots. It's very moist cooking.

I'm in, Zen, but I hope the hot tub is in a much cooler climate; it's 10:30 p.m. here and it's still 97. Bleargh.
I managed to do a big grocery run, prep chopped salad base, make taco salad for dinner ad clean up the kitchen, and make brownies in a cup for us -- first time, not bad, very rich though. I think next time I'll take out of the mug and top with a scoop of good vanilla ice cream.

You could all come here for the hot tub part (um, if you bring the hot tub too). It's 59 right now.

Toilet training update: Ryan went the whole weekend without accidents! I believe he's bought into the whole concept. (His parents also met expectations.)
I think it was someone here (lilibeth?) who told the cute story about a friend's kid who thought that eventually you stopped having to go to the bathroom because adults don't talk about it anymore. don't know why BT's parens made me think of that.
