I don't know why this is called "Marinated Roast" because you don't marinate it. Maybe it marinates as it cooks in the slow cooker. Ok. Let's go with that. Whatever it is, it's delicious.

Then it's ready to eat at lunch the next day. We do this on Saturday night and it's ready after church. Otherwise you can put it … [Read more...]

Fruity Danish {Totally Tasty Tuesdays}
I shared these yummy little treats last week over at Mangoes and Chutney, but in case you didn't wander over there, I'm posting it here for the rest of you. These take no time at all, well, except to bake them, but even then, it's quick. Unless you stand there at the oven, waiting for them to get done baking because you can't stand the wait.
