When the weather gets chilly,there’s nothing quite like cooking up comfort food, low and slow in the crockpot.
Unless, of course, you have a dog.
My day so far:
Scooter: Mom! I smell BEEF cooking!!
Me: I’m making stew for dinner.
Scooter: OMG I LOVE YOU CAN I HAVE SOME?
Me: No, it’s for later.
Scooter: OMG I LOVE YOU CAN I HAVE SOME?
Me: No, I’m sorry, it needs to cook for a few more hours.
Scooter: OMG I LOVE YOU CAN I HAVE SOME?
Me: Honey, you have to wait. Go lay down!
[4 seconds later]
Scooter: Mom! I smell BEEF cooking!!
Repeat for 4-6 hours on High, 8-10 hours on Low.
