And so we meet again! Fancy that.
I don’t know about where you are, but winter it coming in with a bang here in Michigan. The wind is ripping right through and causing quite a disturbance in my poor bones. #arthritissucks my friends. And I fear if this keeps up I am going to have to pack my stuff and move back south. I do love #PureMichigan and all of the beauty four seasons bring, but every year the cold winter weather seems to cause me much more grief than the year before.
So, let’s talk about some of your best winter tips. How do you deal with the cold??
Now that I got my whining out of the way. Let’s talk food. All that warm, yummy goodness.
This Week’s Features:
This week’s Most Clicked:
- Slow Roasted Chicken and Sweet Potatoes from Florassippi Girl
- Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Biscotti from Something Sweet
YUMS PERSONAL FAVORITE:
I am a sucker for a good crockpot recipe. I don’t use my slow cooker near enough. Most folks use them as a time saver or for one pot meals. Makes cleanup so much easier. Since I work from home, I have a little extra time to make dinner, especially since hubs isn’t here every other week for work. When he is here, he’s working 30 min away and 12 hour shifts. So, he gets home long past the 5pm typical time.
I want to use my crockpot more. I feel like life would be a lot less stressful for me. Just like you guys I still have to figure out what to cook each day! With a list like this, I can toss stuff in the crockpot while I am making breakfast. Then I don’t have to worry about what to make for dinner when my stomach starts to grumble and its close to time for Mr. Yum to be home. It would give me more time for more things, like you know, writing fiction.
CONGRATULATIONS to you ALL!

Thank you for hosting another party, and I’m honored my Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Biscotti was one of the most viewed last week
♥♥
Took a break for a bit but I’m back!! Thanks for hosting the party and love being here to stop all the yuck 😉
There are several great recipes on the link up this week! Yum!
Thanks for the great link up. I am always happy to get new recipes. I love to cook in my crock pot.
I’m a HUGE fan of crock pot recipes. I like being able to start it and forget about it until later.
It’s pretty wintery here in MA, too. We have had a couple of dustings of snow and it’s way too early if you ask me.
Great Linky. lots of good recipes.
The pumpkin chocolate chip biscotti. OMG. Just OMG. That looks amazing.
Great recipes! This sounds silly but when I used to teach school and would freeze on recess duty, I would put those little disposable hand warmers in my bra. They would keep my core warm and it would help so much!!
Such great things! I need to go back and save pretty much all of them! So many good recipes!
That Pumpkin Chocolate Biscotti would make a great snack or dessert for the holidays. I want to give it a try now that I’ve seen the pictures!!
I need to start plling out the crock. We are o busy lately I know it would save me hours in the long run.
My daughter is always making crock pot freezer meals. It is amazing how much money and time she saves by organizing and preparing the freezer meals in advance. She has a busy life with three kids – the freezer meals are such a time saver for her.
Love crockpot meals. I make a freezer full each month and enjoy not having to slave away in the kitchen each day.
I love my Crock Pot. It makes making a great meal on the days you do not have a lot of time so easy.
I really dislike cooking, so our crock pot is my friend. I don’t use it as much as i’d like to but I think with the colder weather coming in I definitely will be using it more.
You always share THE BEST recipes! I’m going to try out the slow cooker and sweet potato one soon!
Thanks for the great recipes! I added one of mine as well!
My goal this winter is to use my crock pot more than ever! ! I can’t wait to try all these new recipes!
Another great collecti0on of tasty! I’m a sucker for crock pot too!
I’m so excited about winter time and crockpot meals! Thanks for the linky!
Having crock pot meals made ahead of time have saved me in many a pinch! Great tips!
I love slow cooker recipes, especially this time of year! Thanks for a great collection of recipes to try!
Wow lots of great recipes to keep families warm and feed. Gotta check them out.
I love the great recipes on the link up this week! I’ll have to check them all out!
My family is in Michigan. They have made it clear that they will be buying tickets to come and see me here in L.A. soon!
I have a cousin out in L.A. I am always telling her I am going to move in with her.
