Grey skies, snow softly falling, a vanilla scented candle burning, a good day to cook and prepare food for the cold days ahead.
I have boneless pork ribs and barbecue sauce in the crock pot, and on the stove, a double batch of homemade spaghetti sauce is simmering. Later, I will make a two pans of lasagna, one for tonight, and one for the freezer. Half of the spaghetti sauce will go in the freezer, too. Tomorrow, we will have shredded pork sandwiches on baguettes.
Deciding to eat what is in the freezer, and not shop has been both an adventure, and has added to savings.

Question: Although I find that crockpots make the meat soft, it also "dries" it out, doesn't it? Like, maybe drains the fat out or something. How do you prevent that?
The only good luck I've had so far is chicken in a soup....

And, thank you. I forgot to add I was listening to Schubert's "Unfinished" symphony to motivate me!
