When you know that you are going to be cleaning all day, start your day by making your dinner first. Find a great crockpot recipe and throw it together and let it cook while you clean. When you're done, the last thing you want to do is cook and you don't always have the money to go out for pizza.

I have been trying to use my crock pot more. I really like the convenience, plus the meals just taste really good cooked that way! Seems I have a little more get up and go first thing in the morning when I put the meal on than in the evening if I have to start from scratch. I always make my corned beef and cabbage in the crock pot. It comes out wonderful and everything is in one pot. All I have to do at dinner is set the table and throw out the rye bread!
One of my email buddies, uses her crockpot on days when she's going to be online alot. She say's it frees up her time to be online and all she's got to do later is toss a salad & fix a beverage to go along with the crockpot meal.
