Mother’s Day - A bit early

Mother’s Day came a bit early for me.

We were out shopping today and with my inlaws coming in tomorrow for a week-long visit, I wanted to get a new crock pot.  I will be responsible for cooking 2 of the 4 meals that we will be eating at home (my sister-in-law is cooking the other two) I opted for two meals for the crock pot. I will be making chili and chicken enchiladas.

The one I had was good - a 7 quart one (I think, it was fairly large).  I use it at least once a week.  The problem with it is, you can’t cook just a little bit.  Not that I will need “a little bit” with my inlaws all being here for dinner.  The problem comes when my husband is deployed soon.  Yep, you read that right, my husband is getting deployed. I think at the end of the month or early June.

So my husband got me this:

It is the one that has the three different crocks to go with it.  A two-quart, a 4-quart, and a 6 quart.   I can’t wait to try it out!

He also got me a new food processor.  My last chopper broke.  I like making homemade salsa.

And… last but not least… a new purse:

Isn’t my honey a sweetie??!!

    YAH for great presents. It always makes us feel special! Happy Mother’s Day!

  2. GREAT toys! Yes, your honey is a sweetie and I’m sorry to hear he’s being deployed. You guys are in my prayers…….

  3. Never heard of a crockpot like that, sounds great! Sorry to hear your husband is being deployed. Will you & the kids get to stay where you are, or do you have to relocate?

  4. I love that crockpot! I haven’t seen one like that. It’s like Goldilocks and the Three Bears!LOL

    The news about your hubby is a bummer. Hope he won’t be gone long. I’ll keep him in my prayers.

  5. Sorry to hear about DH’s deployment. Will he be gone for 6 months?

    I’ve never seen a crockpot like that and it’s cool. Do all the crocks sit inside of one another so it doesn’t take up a lot of space? I have two crockpots and I hate how much space they take up.

  6. Yea for Kim! I love that crockpot! I’ve never seen one like that before. Girl, you did GOOD!

    I’m hoping for a sewezi table for Mother’s Day, but not too sure it is coming — LOL!

    Happy Mother’s Day and have a great visit with the in-laws!

  7. Great gifts Kim and to a very deserving Mom!
