Roasting

Happy Birthday USA!  

My friend Dj asked for more crock pot recipes. We live only miles apart, but have never met - yet, we know as much about each other as friends who see each other all the time. If you are short on friends or time to see the ones you have, make yourself some online friends!

Using the oven when it's this hot and muggy is not fun. I got up early to make cupcakes today for the kids and the frosting is already dripping off them.

Here's a bunch of different things you can do with a beef roast, cheap steak or stew meat in a crock pot (cook on low all day)..
