I really love your consistent heat and magical powers, especially when I throw raw meat and veggies in you, and voila!!! - in just a few hours you miraculously execute a satisfying and effortless meal.
The way you make the house smell like a warm, cozy, fulfilling dinner really makes me smile when I get back from an appointment at work. And I love how flexible you are; you don't care if I just want you to simmer some soup, or if I want you to concoct a full, hearty meal! You, Crock-Pot, make me a very happy woman!
Now, if you could only clean yourself! Oh wait- you kind of do, as long as I use a Slow Cooker Liner! Again, another magical power!
