        I totally got it ... but that still doesn't explain the sauce thing! :D -- nm - JenBro Jan 24, 17:06 2
        
        that too is classified. -- nm - Mel Profit Jan 24, 17:14 1

      - i like things. several in fact -- nm - dead like pixie Jan 24, 15:53
      - Honestly, if Pixie gets that label over me, I'm not doing my job here. -- nm - Mop (214 lbs) Jan 24, 15:35 4
        
        but you said Trish hates everything ... now YOU want to claim the title of one who hates everything? - JenBro Jan 24, 15:40 2
        
        So how I turned that around on Trish? Clever, no? -- nm - Mop (214 lbs) Jan 24, 15:41 1
        
        now I really know you're a guy - JenBro Jan 24, 15:44

- "This time I thought I would play it with a limp." -- nm - Max Jan 24, 15:22
I used the crockpot to make the sauce tonight. Works just as well as, let's say, a sauce pan. :) -- nm - CQ Jan 24, 15:19 2
- I always found crock pot sauce to be too runny -- nm - Beryllium Jan 24, 15:25 1
  - I cooked it on slow for 6 hours and took the top off for the last 2 so it would reduce. came out fine -- nm - CQ Jan 24, 15:26
