    We ate out of the Crock Pot a lot growing up, tons of beef stew thickened with tapioca.
    My mom received a Crock Pot for Christmas one year, it came in a huge box. One day she got tired of sorting, pairing and folding socks so she put the big Crock Pot box next to the dryer and tossed all the socks in there and we had to dig through the box to get our own socks, it was known for years as the "Sock Box." "Mom, I can't find my gym socks!" "Look in the Sock Box!" Not related to cooking, but it's still a Crock Pot story. :)
    Thanks for more good memories!

      OMG the sock box! I love that so much! I guess the crock pot is the gift that keeps on giving, LOL! Always happy to hear when memories come back!!! Have a great weekend!

    Hi Jill I love this episode! I didn’t know the crock pot was that old. I thought maybe it was a 60’s or 70’s invention. So cool. This Apple Brown Betty recipe looks super tasty and it was so easy to whip up! Just watching you mix up the apples at the end with that beautiful color had me so curious to try this! I’ve said this many times before - I love my air fryer, I love my instapot and I love kitchen gadgets in general, but none of these things will ever beat my love for the crock pot!! It will always be my favorite. Thank you for the food history and for the yummy recipe! Cant wait to try it 🤗⭐️🧡 🍸

    • @yesterkitchen
      @yesterkitchen  Před rokem

      Hi Ryan! Isn't the story great! I still don't have an instapot or air fryer, just too "modern" for this scratch cook, LOL! SO I agree, nothing like a crock pot! Give this a try, the flavors are pure and simple and make you smile!!! Let me know if you try it!!!

    We use our crock pot often, in fact just last week we made Carnitas in our crock pot. But I never gave much thought to the history of it! So cool!

    I thought the Crockpot came out in the '70s. Boy, was I wrong or what! Thank you for the great history and such a delicious dessert! Coincidentally, I saw this video right after taking my Crockpot out of a storage closet and cleaning it up for the fall! Can you believe that?✅ 👍😜😎

    I love the crockpot 🥰 It’s so special to know the history. And as always, I love your enthusiasm. Happy!
    I have a well used crockpot, but recently bought an electric skillet at a yard sale, to use when we travel in our Mtr home. Now I will always think of your show when I use it too!! Thank you Jill💕

      Hi Roberta! Isn't the history fabulous? I love crock pots because they stand the test of time. And you just gave me the best idea! I'm going to get an electric skillet for our rv. Once we find it. Still looking... . Have a wonderful weekend my friend!💗

    I need to buy a crockpot. We didn’t have one growing up (it was new-dangled technology that didn’t exist when my parents grew up, so we didn’t have it either), but they are so handy!
    I remember when we got an electric frying pan, though: it was a Christmas (1966) present. My mom used it for decades and now I use it. Still works perfectly.

    • @yesterkitchen
      @yesterkitchen  Před rokem

      I love that you still use your mom's electric skillet! And I especially love that you remember the year she got it! They sure made things to last back then! And yes, you need to buy a crock pot!! New-fangled technology! LOL!

    Hey, Jill 💚🌸. Ohmygoodness, another dish I learned to make in Home Ec in the 60’s and had forgotten about 💞. Not in the crockpot, of course 🤣😂. I am going to do this when I get some apples! I so love your history lessons 💖. Thank you so much for sharing sweetie pie! Have a wonderful blessed weekend ❤️

    Hi Jill, I've been fortunate enough to own three different styles of crockpot all made by Rival. I was gifted an avocado green tall pot for my first marriage in 1971. Would you believe it still works perfectly well?? At the time of my second marriage in 2008 I received one similar to the one you use in this video. The tall one I use for stuff like chili or stew, the shorter/wider one is perfect for cooking two small chickens at the same time and the third is an itty-bitty one that I got as a promotionary gift with a cheese order, which is so useful for melting cheese or butter when either is needed. Love them all and would never part with any of them.
    Have never made a dessert in a crockpot. Eager to give this one a try 💚💚💚

    • @yesterkitchen
      @yesterkitchen  Před rokem

      Hi Heather! I love avocado green and I totally believe it, they made products so well back then! My old school 1970s oven in my house works perfectly! I have a large one and the tiny one too and use it for warm dips, great idea about the butter! What a great gift with purchase! SO excited for you to try this, you will love it! Always great to hear from you!!!!

    That's really cool history Jill!
    I knew about the Jewish Sabath somewhere back in my cluttered brain.
    But the finding out that the Crockpot was invented for it is amazing!
    Sharp guy!
    And a wonderful sounding recipe!
    You do great work!

    The picture of the author is just fantabulous! How stale/fresh are the bread cubes supposed to be? Also the video lists 1 t of nutmeg, not 1/4 as given in the voiceover. Sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings. Have a great weekend.

    • @yesterkitchen
      @yesterkitchen  Před rokem +2

      Hi Audrey! Thank you so much! I'll fix it. I'd much rather you be the bearer than have it wrong. The bread for this doesn't have to be stale. Have a great weekend too!
