PlainPat - it was lovely. There is very little left over which is an indication that it "hit the spot". However, I really wanted to go to sleep afterwards, but instead had to go out to Guides (Girl Scouts) and run around the woods in the dark with a torch for an hour and a half. Having said that, dinner did set me up well for that, and I was warm all evening!
Tomorrow is Pheasant Pie. Dinner is at 6pm. You are welcome, but you have to bring your own plate!

Because I know many of you have dogs, and because I cook for my 20 lb pug (because most dog food is terrible) - here is my recipe for home cooked crock pot dog food.
I take split chicken breasts (about four large) and put them in crock pot. I fill the crockpot with water and cook on low for 24 hours. I then take a potato masher and mash the chicken breasts into little pieces. The bones will mash also after having been cooked for 24 hours. (weight bearing bones will not mash up - such as leg and thigh bones so these are not good to use)
I then add 1 heaping cup of sojos original (wheat and grain free along with vitamins), a heaping cup of Honest Kitchens Preference (dehydrated vegetables and fruits along with vitamins) and one cup of brown rice. I continue cooking till rice is done and water has been absorbed.
When cooled, I mix thoroughly and scoop out of crock pot in serving sizes and put in snack sized zip lock baggies to freeze.
I then add this to a little high end kibble (Canidae)and our little pug just loves it (and it's so good for her too!!)

1 c cranberries, chopped, 1/4 c dried apricots, quartered, 1/2 tsp orange zest, 1/4 c orange juice, 1/3 c shallot or onion, chopped, 2 tsp apple cider vinegar, 1 tsp dried mustard, 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated, 2# boneless pork loin roast
In 4 qt or larger slow cooker, combine all but pork and mix. Add pork roast and spoon sauce on top. Cover & cook on low for 7-9 hours or until fok tender. Remove roast and if serving sliced, let set 10 min. & serve w/sauce. If shredding, pull apart with 2 forks and return to sauce.
