Yesterday I made a delicious crockpot lasagna and today I made pulled BBQ pork and some "chunky applesauce". I made the apples for our afternoon snack and they were GREAT! I haven't had the pulled pork yet. We have a few hours before that is ready. It's smelling good though. I don't know what took me so long to fall in love with my crockpots. They are truly a lifesaver. I was having problems because I was sending Jared to get something quick (usually fast food) for us at night because I was to tired/lazy to cook. I figured I needed to stop spending and eating like that. These crockpots have saved my sanity. I've also pulled out my "fix it and forget it lightly" cookbook. I have a couple of recipes planned and the apples were from the dessert section of this one. I made the pulled pork because I had a seasoning packet for it and I've never made it before. I didn't even know what kind of meat to buy. Talk about naive.
Makena has been a sleep-a-holic the last few days, and I'm loving it. She must be going through a growth spurt, and I'm pretty sure it's those 2 year molars that are doing the growing. I haven't seen her fingers in her mouth this much except for when she was a "baby". Poor thing. She was eating, well pretending to, the other day and she put in a bite of food and started bawling. I felt so bad for her since there was nothing I could do. Yes, I could give her Tylenol or something, but I wasn't certain that was the problem. She had woken up early that day and had been grumpy the whole morning.
I should get some other things done around here, granted supper is already made, hehe, but there are other chores that need to be done.
