Speaking of apples, we got a bunch at the pumpkin patch yesterday. We're making applesauce with them, but now I'm wanting apple crisp. Mmmmm.

It's a great way to use apples that are passing their prime. I may have to make some just for the aroma (not of rotting apples BTW).

I'm about to make a fire! Maybe have some wine. Also bought chocolate caramel apples from a local chocolate shop. They are so insanely good.

So jealous....

My small fire to go with The Martian and my pumpkin spice tea

Oh man now I really want to make applesauce in the crock pot. It is so easy and delicious!

I like the idea of crock pots, but I've never gotten into the habit. I keep intending to learn...

Crock pots are one of life's greatest inventions.

Truth. We have a super cheap Crock Pot brand one. It definitely gets the job done but I dream about having a super fancy one.

[TheEleventhHour]

****** Oh no! I am sorry!

I suggest one with an auto function. You can set the time, and once the timer goes off the crockpot auto switches to warm. Mine also has a meat thermometer, and a hinged lid.

Homemade applesauce sounds delicious.
That water leak looks intense I hope you get it fixed soon and painlessly ******

[GOmamab15]

I recently broke the handle on the lid on my crock pot, it still functions just fine but it's annoying to have to use tongs to finagle the lid off. I think of it as a good excuse to upgrade.

We must have the same one. I love it.

You know, you just don't hear "finagle" all that much... Me likey!

I am so full of all things feasty right now. I might just sleep on the couch. Too full to walk upstairs.

Jealous! Tonight would be a great night for one too. We had one Friday night.

Yes to crock pots. I requested (a newer, fancier) one for Christmas.

I have this one. (The older model though)

It's programmable, as pp have mentioned. The locking lid is awesome if you go to pot luck dinners (or even need to bring a side or dessert to a friend's house). I LOVE it.

ETA the meat thermometer is also awesome. You can set it to cook until the meat is at temperature and then it will turn to warm. So awesome if you're doing a large roast.
