What is the best SLOW COOKER and RICE COOKER?
I'm shopping for a Slow Cooker and a Rice Cooker. I'm not sure which brand or model is good out there. I heard Zojirushi for rice cooker is the best. I'm unsure about slow cooker.
Any suggestion help.
Thank you!
Slow cookers are pretty basic. I'd just suggest you get one w/ a removable crock that can go in the dishwasher for easy cleaning, and a heavy glass lid (not plastic). High, Low, and a Keep Warm settings are also nice.

Product Description Finally a book that combines the fresh, exuberant flavors of great Italian food with the ease and comfort of a slow cooker. Michele Scicolone, a best-selling author and an authority on Italian cooking, shows how good ingredients and simple techniques can lift the usual "crockpot" fare into the dimension of fine food. Pasta with Meat and Mushroom Ragu, Osso Buco with Red Wine, Chicken with Peppers and Mushrooms: These are dishes that even the most discriminating cook can proudly serve to company, yet all are so carefree that anyone with just five or ten minutes of prep time can make them on a weekday and return to perfection. Simmered in the slow cooker, soups, stews, beans, grains, pasta sauces, and fish are as healthy as they are delicious. Polenta and risotto, "stir-crazy" dishes that ordinarily need careful timing, are effortless. Meat loaves come out perfectly moist, tough cuts of meat turn succulent, and cheesecakes emerge flawless.

Crock pot cooking time for rump roast?
I have 3.15 lb rump roast that I'm planning to cook in the crock pot. I leave for work early, so I won't be able to adjust the temperature during the day. If I cook it on low, how many hours will it take?
Depends on if it starts out frozen and also how thick it is. I pretty much agree with the first answer, though. 10 hours on low won't hurt it. If it is frozen it still should be nearly as tender by the end of 10 hours. You could also try putting it on when you go to sleep at night and have it done by morning and put it in the fridge before you leave to work. Just reheat it when you are ready to serve it.

Who has good crock pot/ slow cooker recipes?
Like many of you, I'm a working mom on a tight schedule. I love to cook, but some nights I'd love to just come home to dinner without stopping at the local fast food joint or other take-out solutions.
I love coming home to the smells of dinner cooking but am running low on recipes for my crock pot.
What are some good recipes that I can throw in the crock pot before I leave for work that will be done after about 9+ hours?
Cambell's soup has a slow cooker recipe book that is fantastic.
My favorite and easy thing to make in the slow cooker is chicken tacos. Take about 4-6 chicken breast and a large jar of salsa (enough to cover the chicken) and that's it. My slow cooker has 4,8 and 10 hour settings. I find that any of them work. The chicken is easy to shred, just pop it into a taco shell with lettuce, cheese and tomatoes and you're done. I usually will heat up a can of beans and sometimes make Mexican rice. My husband love to make burritos out of the left overs.

Two of America's best-loved inspirational speakers share the very best of their collected stories and favorite tales that have touched the hearts of people everywhere. Canfield and Hansen bring you wit and wisdom, hope and empowerment to buoy you through life's dark moments.
It's like homemade chicken soup that warms the chill and heals the ill. This collection of 101 stories is based on the belief that true testimonies of goodness and loving transformations can nourish us to the bone and heal the cynicism in our hearts. Indeed, most every story seeps in deeply. It's hard not to shed a tear of gratitude, feeling thrilled to have been touched and soothed so easily. Some of the authors are famous, such as Dan Millman, who writes an exquisite vignette on "Courage," and Gloria Steinem, who writes of "The Royal Knights of Harlem." Many, however, have a short, simple story to tell about an event, a person, an everyday miracle that exemplifies the best of the human spirit. --Gail Hudson

This edition of Chicken Soup for teenagers contains lessons on the nature of friendship and love, the importance of belief in the future, the value of respect for yourself and others, and other important themes--all delivered with compassion and humor.
This book, the latest in the hugely popular Chicken Soup for the Soul series, contains stories, poems, and cartoons relating to the specific troubles that traumatize teenagers everywhere. There are plenty of stories about dating ("HE KISSED MY TEETH!"), friendships (don't gossip), and school. But Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul doesn't shy away from the big issues either, with essays on suicide, dying young, and drunk driving. This book stems from the knowledge that teens know their own concerns best—thus, much of the book is written by teens themselves, which gives the book a very accessible, informal tone. Also, the authors had each piece evaluated by as many teenagers as possible. The care shows. Teenage Soul is always respectful, and doesn't minimize any of the dramas of adolescence. It does, however, mete out plenty of perspective. This wise, tender, funny book is filled with wisdom useful to teens (and everybody else, too).

A sweet spoonful of this enchanting Chicken Soup collection will warm the hearts of the romantic readers everywhere.
What a good idea all these Chicken Soup for the Soul books are! Instead of reading one book and hunting around for the most touching or uplifting passage, the Soup brigade of editors and writers scours the published world for brief excerpts, arranges them by category, and sells them by the kabillion. The spoon-size stories in Chicken Soup for the Couple's Soul hit the spot and warm the heart. Take the case of Dame Margot Fonteyn, the legendary dancer. She fell madly for Latin lover Roberto Arias at 18 in 1937, but history flung them apart. He recourted her 14 years later, after he'd become Panama's ambassador to the UN. Five assassin's bullets crippled him, but not their romance: he watched from the wings in a stretcher as she took 43 curtain calls in Romeo and Juliet. "I feel it's rather a fair division," she said of their love. "He thinks. I move. You see, I love him." Another love-triumphing-over-paralysis chapter reprints the most stunning passage of Christopher Reeve's Still Me. The cartoons aren't great, but many of the celebrity quotes in the book are, like this one from Ursula K. Le Guin: "Love doesn't just sit there, like a stone, it has to be made, like bread, remade all the time, made new." But one correction: the line "There is only one serious question ... how to make love stay" is from Tom Robbins, not "Tim Robbins." --Tim Appelo
