After Soong received a slow cooker for his birthday, and I discovered a slow cooker recipe book in my Nan’s kitchen drawer, I have every intention of making a few slow cooker recipes. However, I only took photos of the pages I liked from the recipe book on my phone, so I’m uploading them here – mainly so I don’t lose them. 🙂
