There are so many things I love but don’t talk about as much as I should on the blog. I want to do a weekly segment where I feature the cool stuff that keeps me from blogging I’m currently obsessed with. Here it goes!
1. Slow Cooker
I’ve had one for a year and love it! I’ve made so many recipes…from French Onion Soup to Tamale Pie. I spend about 15 minutes prepping in the morning and that’s it. The best moment is when I walk in the door and get a whiff of all the goodness that’s ready for me to eat. I have a White Chicken Chili in there tonight that I can’t wait to try.
This is in my slow cooker as we speak!
2. Nike + GPS
Such a cool app! It can track you indoors or out, and gives you easy access to music. I use it for my outdoor runs. When you hit your mile marks, a voice breaks into your song to tell you your stats (you can also turn that off if you want). It really keeps me on track while I’m running. Plus at the end, it will tell you if you beat any p.r.’s …or if you didn’t, it will still feed your ego by telling you how great of a run you had.
3. Dexter
It takes place in Miami, they cuss a lot, and a serial killer who kills killers. Enough said. Even though this season is not as good as the Trinity season (if you like Dex you know what I mean), it is one of my must watch shows every year. Last week’s episode had an ending that I couldn’t friggin believe! I’m so glad it will be on for at least 2 more seasons!
My favorite serial killer, what a sweetie
What are you lovin right now?
oh i am loving tea right now and i don’t even know why. Holiday spice maybe?
I am loving:
Cold weather in Texas!
Butternut Squash soup
The group Mumford and Sons- awesome music!
I am loving Exercise TV On Demand (which may be going bye bye, sadface). It saved me today as I packed capris that turned out semi-sheer (YIKES) and forgot my sports bra. I am having a Murphy day, but feel way better.
Post the chili recipe if it turns out well! I love white chicken chili and could use a good recipe!
I love Dexter too! At the moment I’m loving feeling festive with Christmassy songs and baking, but not loving the cold so much! Also Dexter is amazing
People keep telling me that I need to watch Dexter! It sounds like my kind of show…
I love using the crockpot too! The best feeling is walking through the door coming home from work and smelling dinner and knowing that it’s cooked and ready to be eaten!
Can’t wait to hear how the white bean chicken chili turned out! Sounds yummy.
I can’t wait to get home and use my slow cooker!
I’m loving that I’m packed up & ready to go, and also that I’m one final down one to go between hitting the open road to get back to New Hampshire!
Have fun in New Hampshire!
I live under a rock and still haven’t surrendered to the awesomeness that is Dexter. *hangs head in shame*
