Smells Yummy!

I'm making my first ever pot roast using the slow cooker that 'Berta got me. And using a recipe I got from the Carnival. I haven't made pot roast since I was a teenager, and those I made using the grandma's old pressure cooker. Will be interested to see how this works.

Now, I need to get something to eat!! After 1pm and I haven't even eaten brekkie yet.

Got to love a slow cooker. I know I love mine. The only drawback is they are SLOW, which means you get to smell the food cooking all day long. Consequently I try to never use mine when I have a day off.

We used to just make pot roast in a roasting pot that had a removable inner drain sort of thing, set for several hours on low heat. I've never used a pressure cooker -- my grandmother had one, but I was terrified it would explode every time she used it.

When I was little, I used to be facsinated by the rocker on the pressure cooker. Loved watching it. And was afraid it would explode :)
