Love to cook for others especially my best friend who can't boil an egg! My husband is not too fond of a woman our age waiting for someone else to cook, but I love it! (Plz don't tell him). Anything in the slow cooker. And now they make the plastic bags to go inside the pot. WATCH OUT!!! I cherish the holidays because I still help my grandmother cook. It brings back childhood memories. We cook and listen to the same nostalgic music from 30+ years ago. I cherish her and this tradition. After 36 years, I decided to host Thanksgiving dinner. My first crack at the bird was a huge hit thanks to the recipe from this website (Michigander Turkey). I tried to make seafood gumbo when I was 19. In a nutshell, the color of the liquid is suppose to be brown; however mine was green! Don't know where I went wrong and to this day, my family is still wondering as well.
