Wow! This is weird...I just read through a crock pot cookbook yesterday! I discovered that you can wrap a potato (pierce with a fork) in foil and put it in the pot all day and have a baked tato when ya get home...this rocks unless you are lo/no-carb :roll: (been there, done that, hated it!) Anyway I thought this was cool. :D
