    I never heard of slow cookers before looking at this website, I now couldn't be without it. Even though I am a housewife, I get the dinner on in the morning and can then concentrate on more important matters like my children when they come home from school. I can go out and about with them too, to the park etc. and not worry about the dinner spoiling in the oven or getting a takeaway because I am too tired in the evening.

    Is it safe to leave a sc on all day as I work and would be worried leaving it on?

    I put my sc on in the morning, and leave it all day while at work, and come home to a great meal everytime.
    Hoping that when I start looking after the pennies, and the pounds will take care of them selves :j

    I love my slow cooker too - it's amazing! A wonderful hot meal cooks for me whilst I am doing other things, and as I live alone, I cook a big batch and freeze the rest. I've got some great slow cooker recipes and I reckon it'll really come into its own this winter. It's saved me time and money - I love it and want to marry it.....;)

  • SC's are fantastic! It doesnt matter what you throw in, it always tastes OK:D

    I had to giggle to myself when my Mother bought herself a slow cooker, after hearing me raving about mine for so long....

    When she told me she got one i was so excited for her and congratulated her, it was as though a new baby had been born.:p :rolleyes:

    Me too, I've got 7 portions of frozen stew to get through this month. Might take some to work next week for lunch! Yum.
