    So I wanted to buy ingredients for spare ribs + BBQ sauce, and chicken breasts for crock pot chicken. Kroger only had the ribs in this massive size! ($15 and a rack like a foot and half long). I cook just for myself - what if I don't like it! I'll try it in another life I suppose.

    It's like they stopped doing Tyson boneless skinless chicken breasts and thighs?? I could only buy the simply basic brand which was scrawny and expensive. I bought more thighs and will be cooking them shortly.

    Dachshunds are the BOMB. With an attitude. =)

    I want one but a long haired one. I hear they are very hard to train though.

    Hmmm I made it using previously ignored crescent rolls in the tiny 4 oz container and so far have had to adjust the cooking time down to 45 minutes, probably still need a bit less time. 2 oz crescent rolls, 1 tbsp margarine, 1 tbsp light brown sugar and 3/8 tsp cinnamon. I did not make the icing, and my crockpot is fairly small. I often have to adapt recipe quantities as I live alone

    Oooooo :love: Nice modifications, how'd it turn out?

    Tasty enough to make it twice but I'm easy to please :) It was mostly very soft and nicely browned but a bit hard around the corners of the crock pot, like wherever it contacted the circle that traces the bottom of the pot?. This is where I think either reducing the time further or using the low temperature rather than high could help!

    My crockpot is pretty large (about 5 or 6 quarts), so I don't think that would work out :( I'll have to find some occasion.

    Believe it or not, we do eat food other than fried oreos and french fries.

    So much this! I have a dachsund and she is the biggest pain in my butt. She is stubburn and flat out mean sometimes. I mean, I love her, but this dog can be super annoying. :laugh:

    I think I will do mine when there's a friend/family get together...it is that or taking it into work and being called a feeder...
    I make monkey bread in muffin tins, so you can adjust how much you make.

    Here's a recipe that just makes enough for two people (but it requires you to make homemade biscuit dough, and I'm totally too lazy to do that on a regular basis): http://www.dessertfortwo.com/2014/02/homemade-monkey-bread-muffins/

    why do these two people look nothing like HLB and her sock puppet?
    or are my eyes just fuzzy from lack of sleep?

    I can look at apples any time! Get me a picture of a deep-fried Snickers bar.

    Because HLB is irresistable, of course. :smile:

    Where is that gif of "you" and "the point" ... I feel the need for that right now to go with a recent post above.
