Loving My Crock Pot


OK, now you will need go get a paper sack, you will be hyperventilating for sure now. Three posts in 24 hours might be my all time record. But like I said in the last post, I was trying something new in the crock pot.
 I would not say that I am one who has lived a sheltered life but you would think so. I had not heard of cooking a chicken this way but it has been around for at least 6 years.
So you probably already know about making a rotisserie style chicken in the crock pot, I'm hoping though there is at least someone out there who hasn't too.
So easy and soooo good 


You'll need foil and take pieces and roll into balls


Place them in your crock pot, I used 8.


You will place your chicken on top of those balls. You do not add any liquid.


Now I seasoned the bird by rubbing it with olive oil and sprinkling on some seasoning. Use any type of seasoning you like.


 Now I had read about many different settings and time lengths. one said on high for 4 - 6 hours, another said on low for 5 - 6 hours than on high for a couple. I ended up cooking mine on low for about 7 hours and then on high for an 1 1/2 hours.
You can see tender it looks.


It was YUMMY

I wish I would of found this recipe sooner, it would of came in handy with this hot summer we have been having.

Till next time

  2. I've only done one and it came out a little dry. I didn't know about the foil or the olive oil and seasoning rub, maybe that will help. I'll try it again your way.

  5. This method may have been around for awhile, but I just heard of it a couple of months ago. It is good. Thanks for reminding me, and sharing the recipe.

  6. Well I never heard of that ball thing and I love it, thanks for sharing. The one thing I hate about chicken in the crock pot is it gets soggy and those foil balls will hold it above the liquid - genius.

Welcome friends to share a thought, I enjoy reading them and will try my best to reply back by email most of the time. But if you do not hear back it's because you are a no-reply blogger.

How to Make a Portable Design Wall

I had wanted to get a portable design wall to take to retreats but did not want to pay the price. Looked at various pins on pinterest and took ideas from more than one to come up with my verison. It worked out great and only cost a fraction of the price. The PVC pipes, joints and 2 yards of felt cost under $22.00 My design wall is 4' x 4' which stands approximately 5 1/5' tall. For this size need 2 - 10ft length of 3/4" PVC pipe for the frame and 4ft of 1" PVC pipe for the feet Cut the 3/4" PVC into 4 - 4' section                                                                                       2 - 1' section              Cut the 1"  PVC into 4 - 1' section          The joints you'll need will be 2 - 3/4" elbows 2 - 3/4" T's 2 - 3/4" to 1" T (this will be the base of the Feet) 4 - 1" elbow Also need pipe cutters (this cost me almost as much

Yarn Along 2/20/13 Spoon Pin Doily

It's snowing here and I know some of you are tired of snow but here we will take the moisture any way we can get it. Plus it just gives me a reason to stay in and work on some of my projects. In this picture I'm not sure if you can make it out but in the background there are some wild turkeys that hang around the house sometime, just  chilling This project I'm working on is Spool Pin Doilies.   I had never heard of them before until Bonnie Hunter had mentioned it on her blog . She a had a viewer send her one for her sewing machine along with a pattern. I did not like the pattern but loved the idea so I decided to make up my own version. I wanted a more simple, smaller and fuller doily. So I tried different thread sizes to get one that I like. (From left to right) I tried sock yarn, which I'll redo because I think I like that look. Heavy weight crochet thread, nope too big Bamboo yarn, I like it. Looks good on my Kenmore. Pearl cott

What's Up

Well that is a big question, what's up Seeing how I haven't posted since before the retreat I went to. So I will show what I did at the retreat and what I have been doing these past few days, which is this Log Cabin Christmas Tree  wall hanging I have the blocks completed and now it just a matter of getting them sewn together. I'll get to that tomorrow. While at the retreat I made this baby quilt top with the disappearing 4-patch block. I had a charm pack and used some "snow" fabric Kaufman snow is one of my favorite whites to use. It's white but not a stark, bright white, goes well with a majority of the fabric I've collected. I started late making my blocks for RCS14 First I wasn't sure what pattern I wanted to make and then with all that was going on the first part of the year, I didn't start until July. One quilt is using a quarter log cabin in solid colors. I made these at the retreat, have the other half t
