Crockpot anyone?

OK a different post this time....Do you own a crock pot? I saw an article or two on this women who had had enough and so as a new years resolution she decided she would make a different homemade meal everyday of 2008 in her crockpot and would post an entry on her blog everyday. The blog contains each days recipes and pictures. If you have a moment and are looking for a new idea you should check it out she has all sorts on there including enchiladas, vegetarian and deserts.
