This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Stride Rite. All opinions are 100% mine.   I’ve never been much of a shoe person.  Growing up, my feet were always different sizes and one shoe never fit quite right.  So, when it came to my kids, I carried on that tradition of not being much of a shoe person.  In fact, my babies typically go barefoot (or

Did you know that Father’s Day is coming right up?  It’s only a couple of weeks away.  Do you know what your kids are getting for their dad yet?  I’m a sucker for kid crafts.  My kids love making things and giving them to their daddy, too!  I haven’t yet figured out what we’re going to do THIS Father’s Day (I must get right on that!), but let me share

  This is one of those recipes that I’ve been making for years.  When I first discovered it, my 2nd child was a baby (she’s 15 now!).   My husband and I thought it was amazing!  I would take it as a meal to friends who had just had a baby and I would always hear the same results.  Everyone seems to love it!  Everyone, except maybe those who don’t like

Is anybody else having trouble getting dinner served in a timely manner?  The other day, I was on my way to a doctor’s appointment in a town about an hour away and remembered it.  I hadn’t put dinner in the slow cooker!  What?  NOOOO!   Not again!  I’m so bad about remembering dinner.  Isn’t that crazy?  The one thing that repeats itself every single day of my life, I manage

  Being the mother of 7 children, I have to think about food A LOT!  My kids can eat and eat and eat.  Everyone has always been impressed with what good little eaters I have.  Now that I have 2, almost 3 teenagers, I am shocked at what that can mean and how many times a person can go back for more food, sometimes long after the rest of the family was

My husband has always steered me away from using pork roasts and pork chops in my cooking, but recently he announced to me that he was more than willing to try new things.  Let me tell you, it didn’t take me long to jump on that opportunity.  If he’s willing to try pork chops, I am pretty sure I could come up with an amazing recipe.  Let me tell you, this

We made this amazing recipe for my son’s prom dinner.  There was a group of about 8 of them that were all dining together at his friend’s house.  We wanted something somewhat fancy, but something really delicious.  My son, Baylee, always requests peanut butter cup desserts, so I knew this one would be a hit!  He’s homeschooled and wouldn’t have gotten to go, but a nice girl from youth group invited

  • Amorette DavisUser of the Free Freezer to Slow Cooker One Week Menu

    Thank you so much! As a special needs mommy these recipes have helped us so much.   I often am very busy with being a nurse for our child that I don't have time for making sure we get meals.  This allows me to do all my prep on the weekends, while my husband is home to help, and to cook during the week.  So grateful!

  • Linda SearsOwner of Freezer to Slow Cooker Menus

    Sarah’s Freezer to Slow Cooker ebooks have been a fantastic addition to my meal plans.  They make meal planning easy and my family happy. I love the way each recipe is laid out, with a shopping list and ingredient prep list, along with cooking instructions. Sarah’s done all the hard work for me!  The recipes have used have all been delicious and easily adaptable to my family’s taste and the number of people I’m serving.

  • FranOwner of Freezer to Slow Cooker Ebooks
     I purchased all of your freezer to slow cooker ebooks a month or so ago and I'm in love with this way of cooking.  I now have taken all 10 weeks of recipes and written them of my menu planner and then I repeated the 10 weeks and will continue to do so throughout the year.  My family of 5 adults and 1 child enjoy the meals that you have planned and I have cooked and I'm excited that the next time when that meal comes due up in the rotation I won't have to purchase anything but just pull it from the freezer.  Thank you so much

  • rayzn2angelsfrom Freezer to Slow Cooker Series

    This makes my life so much easier. I'm a busy work at home/stay at home mom, wife, business woman and I feel like dinner is always the thing I just never get time to do. We have done like 15 of the crockpot recipes from Sarah and they are all very yummy. They get a thumbs up from my husband and kids every time. And there is always enough for my husband to take the left overs at least 2x per recipe. I have a family of 5, 2 adults, 21, 13, 16. So it makes plenty. Thank you Sarah.

  • Dawn S.Buyer of Freezer to Slow Cooker Ebook Series
    I am a 59-year-old wife and mother of two grown children.  I love your idea of fixing a lot of meals ahead of time and then pulling one out, put it in the crockpot, and you have dinner when you get home.  I hate feeling rushed when I cook so Monday - Friday I use those crockpot meals and make enough that we have lunch the next day.  I take Sunday afternoon, fix up what I need for the week (I don't have a lot of freezer space so I do a week's worth at a time) and I'm done with it!  Saturdays I like to try new recipes from some of my cookbooks which I am finding I can freeze as well!  So you have shown me a whole new way to organize my time and still put a healthy meal on the table.  Thanks so much and I look forward to future blogs.
