Just a few weeks ago I hosted The Carnival of the Recipes and the theme was Mexican dishes. This week’s theme is crockpot recipes. I know you Thrifty Mommies like those easy recipes. They allow some extra time to spend with our families . . . or a little time to relax every once in a while (not today for me!).
The carnival is hosted by Slow Cooker Recipes. I’m looking forward to trying the Sweet & Sour Chicken. There are many crockpot recipes, including desserts, that sound yummy! Enjoy!

I was doing some web surfing tonight and found a blog called 5 Minutes for Mom. It is written by twin stay at home moms. You should check out their site. On their site they also have a bunch of other blogs listed.
So, I am reading blogs listed on 5 Minutes for Mom and really enjoying what I’m finding . . . and then I’m wondering where the time went and wondering why I’m not in bed yet!! Does that sound familiar to you? I think I need to take Robyn’s name Sleepy Blogger and make it my own!
