Even if you don't use it a lot, it is GREAT for cooking meat to tenderness, and if you get the one with a top shelf, you can cook veggies at the same time, wow!<br />Yes, I love those picks. Instant cute :)Happy Little Bentohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07715208750492287214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8222492780451339521.post-6870262473066573052010-05-19T18:05:11.445-07:002010-05-19T18:05:11.445-07:00Is slow cooker synonymous for crock-pot?

This one has a snug (not watertight) lid that slides on to stay in place without latches, and it's overall much lighter than my other ones. Very nice oval shape and pleasing to pack. I hope you can try it.<br />You're such a thoughtful and kind person, with always a generous comment like that. Really appreciate your encouragement. <br />Thank you dear!Happy Little Bentohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07715208750492287214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8222492780451339521.post-35179818660452002052010-05-17T20:04:14.360-07:002010-05-17T20:04:14.360-07:00Thanks Chantale!
