Since I was 'hit in the head' (car accident) my memory sucks.
I do't know how many times is take something out of the oven and my husband reminds me maybe an hour later, "Did you turn the oven off?"
So I really rely on my crockpot, and many times do not have to decide between cooking and quilting, I do both!
The strike that some US refineries are going through right now, affects my husband. One day he cooked breakfast, loaded and ran the dishwasher, and cooked dinner. I could get kind of used to this strike stuff!
