It's official!

We were in the meat section of Meijer, when Preston got the crazy idea to try making a pot roast. I had never made one before so I called my parents for advice on what other items needed to be purchased. After my dad started mentioning meat thermometers and how to cook it in the oven and how we shouldn't add
anything to a rib eye roast and how what we really wanted was an english roast; and after I had asked two different meijer workers where to find an english roast, we finally just decided to get potatos, carrots, and onions and hope for the best! WE got a nice rib eye roast on sale for 40% off because it was "to be used" by the next day. I found a recipe online for potroast in the crockpot and the rest is history folks.
Midway through the meal Preston says, "Wow, our first pot roast in a crockpot. We're officially married!" We overcooked it a little, but it was delicious Tuesday night, as well as last night, and I'm sure it'll be just as good tonight! Gotta love meals that last 3 days! ***I'm not trying to overshadow lori's post, but I just posted this on our blog and though ya'll might enjoy knowing what kind of crazy stuff is going on in Warren!

Ohhhh, you are your mother's daughter. I just got a pan of lasagna to last 3 days and I was in heaven. Yes, I guess that there is something about cooking a pot roast that really makes you married. Ya hear that Taki and Connie?

Love the looks. Connie and I got a kick out of them. One adventure after another with you two; never a dull moment. So you challenged the pot roast after two years, huh? What can we expect to see in these next two? Possibly a grilling adventure? :)
