I used to work night shift. I would get off of work, go home, sleep, and go right back to work. Other women would come back to work and explain how they went home, sent their kids off to school, did laundry, went to their son's baseball game, cooked dinner, took a quick nap, and came back to work. I was tired just imagining it all. I never understood how they did it. Now, I work day shift, which is much more compatible with life, yet I still feel like there is so much to do and not enough time.
Helllllo crockpot.
I thought this contraption was for grandmas or church pot-lucks or for the people that bring meatballs to parties..but as it turns out, this thing is incredible.
I can leave and go to work and it will basically cook dinner for me. This morning I put all the ingredients in...and after working all day, came home to a house filled with slow-cooked deliciousness... barbeque beef brisket. As I pulled it out of the crockpot, you could tell how tender the meat was. I got so excited at the amount of work I did and how delicious it looked. Chad came in, and pulled out the electric knife. Entirely not necessary, but incredibly exciting to use. This is his "I don't even have to pay attention, this is so easy because of my manly knife" picture, and my "I did no work and look at the way this meal looks" picture. And there you have it, the gadgets that make life so much easier.
