Happy New Year - January Supper Swap

Sorry for neglecting this poor supper swapping blog! We Chill MAMAs swap differently in the winter .... in November, we swapped one meal and one appetizer/dessert to keep costs down. Then, we did not swap in December, both to save money AND because everyone's at so many parties and such so not cooking home meals as much.

January is back to a routine! I'm getting ready to send out reminder emails for our swap on the Last Thursday, so January 28. Put on your thinking caps for your two favorite meals to swap. It will be so lovely to see everyone again.

I'll probably make something from my new slow cooker cookbook, "Make It Fast, Cook It Slow" by Stephanie O'Dea. Her book deal came from her blog, http://crockpot365.blogspot.com, where she made and posted a slow cooker recipe EVERY DAY in 2008. The site is still active, but I personally like having a book to flip through. Plus the book has pork recipes where her website didn't really. As a bonus, she modifies her meals to be Gluten Free and lists the how-tos in every recipe. YUMM!! Let me know if you've tried this keeper.
