There's a nippy feeling in the air. I even saw a small flock of geese in their V formation flying over just the other day! Fall is coming. It makes me think of the fair, hay rides, wearing jackets in the morning waiting on the bus and running barefoot in the afternoons when the day warmed. Also, the last of the garden was usually coming in and grandma would make lots of soup. Mom would have that crock pot a bubbling.... the smells getting off the bus would make you run to the house to just get a taste!
I got so excited last week I ran out and change my lawn decorations then came in and threw a roast in the crockpot!
Then I tried something I had wanted to for a long time.... Crockpot Cobbler! It worked wonderfully.
I threw it all in and we came home Sunday to a dinner my sweet grandmother would have been proud of!
My crockpot seems to be my best friend on busy days. One of the few things you can just leave running and come back in a few hours to enjoy! With not eating out very often I have come to appreciate this little device in so many ways in the last several years. So dearies.... pull that thing out of the back of your closet, remove the dust and crank it up! It's time for some yum!

| Cobbler in a crock pot! |
Roast
Salt
Garlic (opt.)
Onion
Carrots, celery, potatoes (or sweet potatoes!), green beans or other fresh veggie.
Water (apprx. 2 cups)
Brown the roast in a pan first with the salt, onion and garlic then place in the bottom of the crockpot. Chop veggies and mound on top of the meat. Pour water over the top. Place on lid and turn it on.
3-8 hours depending on your crockpot settings!
Tip: You can make cobbler in your crock pot too! Just place the fruit and liquid in the bottom, pour on the topping, place the lid on and keep the setting low. Fresh fruit or frozen fruit works best for this.
