FREE - 470 Crockpot Recipes - 2018

470 Crockpot Recipes Book <-- click="" font="" link="" this="">


Well I don't know where I got this so I can't credit it but I know I got it for free so I thought I would pass along a great little recipe book I got like...13 years ago.

It has a lot of can of____  and cream of ______  but you can make that stuff homemade and make things even cheaper.  Since we're heading toward the holidays, I thought it would be nice to just stick stuff in the crockpot (slow cooker) in the morning and be done with dinner!

Homemade Cold Syrup!

Okay I'll give ya this...the ingredients sound gross but it works.

1 Raw White Onion
*Raw Honey - Must be RAW! check as most store bought honey is pasteurized.


Take the onion and cut into parts. Now stab it a couple of times with a fork so the quarters have a little bit of holes. It doesn't have to be perfect so don't worry about not stabbing it the right amount of times. Place onion in a quart mason jar and fill with raw honey so that the onion is just covered. Screw lid on and leave on the back part of your stove for at least a day but probably a couple of days. You'll notice that the onion imparts it's juice into the honey. Using a strainer pour liquid into a pint mason jar and store in the fridge. To take you want to take a teaspoon 3 to 4 times a day when you're battling a cold or cough.

*NOTE:

****Please remember not to give honey to children under 1*****

Inquisikids! & Mathtacular

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away....I wrote a post about the Inquisikids DVDs, which is now called Discover & Do, and mentioned how much my kids love MathTacular! DVD's.

Well I was just thinking that since the holidays are coming up you might want to get a couple of these to pop in the car's DVD player.. for those long holiday trips.
