Check out my first guest blog post!
I wrote a guest blog post for The Novice Chef. She is moving and wanted some fellow bloggers to write something up to post in her blog. You definitely don’t want to miss my post – Crockpot Roast Beef. You all know how much Hubby and I love using the crockpot and this recipe is great. You just dump everything in and forget about it. Then you walk in the door and dinner is all ready for you!
Don’t forget to enter in my 2nd blogiversary giveaway by midnight on August 28th! You could win some cute cupcake liners like the red ones seen in this post!






I am Jen the Beantown Baker. Engineer by day and baking maven by night. Hubby serves as my #1 fan and official taste tester. We got hitched back in 2006. Barefoot. In the sand. With the waves crashing behind us. It was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. 






This is brilliant. What an informative post! I need to use my crockpot more often… poor thing is so ignored.

I love my crockpot. Most people think they should only be used in the winter, but I love using mine in the summertime because then your kitchen doesn’t get hot and you still have a hot meal ready when you get home from work!
I have been in love with Stephanie O’Dea’s crockpot blog for a few years now and cook from it all the time. It was so exciting to see that you were linking back to her in this post – it’s like the corners of my culinary universe have collided into deliciousness! I highly recommend Stephanie’s blog and book for those who are looking to utilize the crockpot more often.
I’ve always wanted to make a chicken stock like this. (I thought that chicken broth involved the chicken meat while the stock involves the carcass. I could be wrong since I just started cooking over a year ago.) Anyway, thanks for sharing this recipe!
I’m excited to try this recipe. I love homemade soup and love your idea omn how to freeze it!!
