Chef2Chef Recipe Club Member Forum: http://forums.chef2chef.net -------------------------------------------------- We are re-sending today's Recipe mailing due to a delivery error last night. We apologize for the inconvenience. The Webmaster. Hello Recipe Club, What do making !ove and making Rosemary Potato Pork Chops have in common? The slower the better! So begins How to Make !ove and Dinner at the Same Time, the hilarious new book by Rebecca Field Jager. Rebecca has filled 256 pages with everything you need to know about slow cooking. According to Rebecca, slow cookers (or crock pots) are like birth control pills, liberating devices that let you, the home cook, do what you want, when you want, with whom you want…without worrying about a bun in the oven. Not only is Rebecca Field Jager hosting this week's Recipe Club, she will also give away two autographed copies of her book. You know the drill, if you want a chance to win one of the two copies available, you need to send me a note with your email address on it and I'll pick the winners and announce them on Friday.
