Crock pot stuff

I subscribe to an email list called A Year of Crockpotting or something like that. You get an email every day about making stuff in the CP. Most of the recipes have been pretty good so far. I am sure you could find it on line--I am not good at making those links!
I also have sevral CP books that have great recipes in them. The kind that dont scream "I made this in the crock pot!" at you. My current fave is: Dinner a Day Slow Cooker 365 Appetizing and Affordable Meals Your Family Will Love. (Margaret Kaeter) The person that was talking abut Pork Carnitas reminded me about that book.
I was walking down a street in a nearby town and there the book was in the window! I swear it yelled Here I am!" As I walked past--had to buy it! Terrio--whos Granny always said...."the book is worth it if you find ONE great recipe in it." OK--this must be why I have over 500 in my collection!

I've also looked at the blog A Year of Crockpotting and was planning to post the link, so here it is:
http://crockpot365.blogspot.com/
I have misplaced my crockpot, so I need to replace it to try any of these recipes, but there's some excellent
things on it (not all food -- she even did gifts in it at holiday time), and she writes humorously, so it's good to
read.
I recently discovered a link to the London Times' top 50 food blogs (from around the world), which you can
look at here: http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/life_and_style/food_and_drink/real_food/article5561425.ece
I've found and tried some great things on them already: Pomegranate Margarita recipe, Chile-Tequila-Lime popcorn,
and am looking forward to more. I like the one from someone based in Istanbul called Cafe Fernando (cafefernando.com).
Anyway, happy blogging and cooking!

Hi Shiloh,
I saw it on the blog 101 Cookbooks. Here's the direct link to the recipe: http://www.101cookbooks.com/archives/chile-lime-tequila-popcorn-recipe.html
Apparently, it's from a cookbook only about popcorn recipes... it was good. We're making more tonight so that Chile Boy can try it. Enjoy!

Thank you. I don't know that I'll make that much at once but I can halve it.
