Hope you all had a great weekend! Fall is definitely in the air here and one thing is for sure – the slow cooker sees a lot more action in the cooler weather. And with school and activities clogging up your schedule, it’s a life saver when it comes to getting dinner on the table, especially during the week.
Hamilton Beach was kind enough to send me their Set & Forget 6 Qt. Programmable Slow Cooker With Spoon/Lid to try out. All I can say is, I LOVE it! The programmable option is wonderful. The lid clips onto the base which makes it easy to carry and take with you. And, it comes with a thermometer probe. All great things!
This slow cooker is sure to free up your day to complete your long task list, and efficient enough to be ready as soon as your family sits down to eat.

I love to make veggie beef soup in my slow cooker. I’d love to have a programmable one because I just started a second job and now I don’t get home until 5:45pm. It’d be so nice to get the slow cooker started in the morning, then not have to worry about it all day!
