Ok. For my birthday, I received a crock pot. I have never really cooked in a crock pot, or for that matter at all but I was pretty excited for the new challenge. I emailed one of my most cook-iest friends (hi Katie!) about a pot roast recipe and was off to the grocery store.
The butcher lady at the grocery store was so super duper nice. She cut me a new piece of meat and gave me some great cooking tips. I got a little lost in the potatoe department but was sorted out by a phone call to a friend and a nice old lady. (not the same person). Long story short, my pot roast was a success. I have tons of left overs. If you want the recipe here it is:
Pot Roast… in. Little salt and pepper on top.
Carrot, potatoes, onions… in.
Packet of onion mix, packet of brown gravy mix… in.
2 cups of water… in.
Maybe another cup if there’s lots of veggies.
Ok.. so far I have done 2 new things (pot roast and sew).. it is going to be a longer winter than anticipated. It feels like my bike will never see daylight any time soon. If anyone wants to do anything fun just call me.

You should be able to eat just fine now :)
Lia!!
I haven't visited your blog in a very long time, but now that I am back and read your stories: I love your blog! Good to hear you are having a good time and new curtains.. well, I still don't ;-)
OK... that makes me think about my blog... i should probably think about updating it since the last story is from my "recent" hike with Briana in Boulder, CO ;-)
Anyway! Have a good time and a Merry Christmas and a good slide into 2009 (that's how we say it... strange, i know ;-)
Lia's cooking instead of skiing!?
How're you my dear?
It's been a while since I've been upDATED with news!
I really have to catch up with you and what's new in LIAlife.
I miss you and Denver and being a student at Mines.
Merry Christmas sister and take care and all the best. Kisses Mel
