Rosemary Honey Chicken Slow Cooker Style

SU may be right that I am becoming obsessed with my slow cooker and dutch oven. This will probably change once the weather gets warmer due to that lil boo boo with the house...sigh.

Anyhoo, it seems that the Rosemary in the clay pot on the patio isn't ruined....yet....so I think I'd better get off my voluptious ass and use the Rosemary.

Next up in the crock pot will be this recipe , what can I say. I love honey on chicken..hey...don't judge...have you ever tried honey on Church's fried chicken...be daring...go for it. And..both Jere Lee and SU prefer dark meat on chicken because it really does have more flavor and chicken thigh are cheap !

This weekend, I think I will see if we are all actually going to be there for dinner before I start the slow cooker...nuff said.

Have a great week.
