I was given a crock pot today by my sister Amy. She had just bought a new one, and thought I might like to have her old one. Paula was thrilled to get the crock pot, too! We’ve never cooked in a crock pot before! Amy gave us the cook book that came with the crock pot, but it doesn’t really have very many recipes in it. Only a few of them sound like anything we’d like to try.

Paula decided we should try to find some crock pot recipes online, so we used a new search engine called Daymix.com that Amy told us to try to find the recipes. The search experience resulted in a few leads on some good places to get crock pot recipes, and it referred us to a few blogs about cooking in a crock pot. One of the blogs wrote about converting recipes from oven to crock pot and from crock pot to oven, which I thought was really helpful!
