I have a cooking question. I have an old slow cooker, and I should probably make better--any!--use of it. However, I leave the house at 8 and generally get home at 7. Should I get a new slow cooker with a timer or something? The current settings are Off, Low, High. Hubby used to use it, but he was home to keep an eye on it--and was a much better cook than I. Boy, it was great having a house husband.

I think if you're gone for that long, you might want a new one with a timer.

Most of my slow cooker recipes are 7-8 hours on low at the longest. With being gone 11 hours, a timer would make things easier and more do-able.

NB: I have been looking for the savory cheesecake recipe and can't find it. I will continue the search.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I had an email last night (legit, work email) from someone whose first name is Karlmarx.
My father knew a brother and sister Stalin and Staliny. I feel like they were Caribbean of some sort, but not Cuban....

The Intertubes have failed me. I can get a cooker with a timer, I can get a small cooker. I cannot get both--though I think I could find one if I spent $150. No.

What about a timer on outlet and a crock plugged into that? Like Christmas lights?

Okay, Karlmarx cracks me up in an Old Skool Red Diaper Baby kind of way, but Stalin and Staliny? Because one kid named after a totalitarian dictator wasn't enough?

The small round ones are generally pretty stripped down, yeah. But also, it's hard to find recipes for them. I think you might be better off with one of the 5 - 6 quart models.
But here's a programmable 3 quart one. Not super cheap, but not $100 either.

Yeah, I don't know. She had kind of shifted the pronunciation so it was pretty close to Stephanie, but I don't know how the boy handled it!
