Hi All,

I wanted to thank you all and let you know that I eventually bought "Better
Homes and Gardens so-easy slow cooker" cook book. This book has a lot of
simple recipes for a 4 qt. slow cooker.

I had purchased several of the recommended books, brought them home and took
a good look but ended up bringing them back. They were more complicated than
I wanted.
