Sunday-morning-friendly Slow Cooker Meals

It’s a rainy, Saturday afternoon.

I’m relishing a bit of quiet while my five children nap upstairs, all the while pondering whether or not I should

take a few minutes to de-clutter the house (who am I kidding? that would take hours!),

write out next week’s homeschool lesson plans,

tackle the laundry,

answer emails,

write out the grocery list

or plan the Sunday dinner menu.

Ah, so many choices.

I usually just opt for another cup of coffee… 🙂

Balancing life as a homeschooling mom, homemaker, blogger, sister, friend and pastor’s wife is just plain crazy.  Even on my most productive days, I never get it all done.

After surviving six insanely busy week days, Sunday always looms ahead of me as THE WORK DAY OF the WEEK (in the pastor’s home anyway).

If we didn’t have to wear clean clothes and eat on Sundays, well maybe things wouldn’t be so crazy.  🙂

But we do, so it is.

If you relate to any of the nonsense I just wrote, then maybe you’re an insanely busy pastor’s wife and mom, too. Or maybe you’re just an insanely busy woman who goes to church on Sunday and needs some fresh inspiration for that occasion called Sunday Dinner.

I have twenty-five Sunday morning friendly slow cooker recipes to share with you today.  I hope these will bless your Sunday socks right off… and give you a break so you can squeeze in that extra cup of coffee while the kids are still napping.

Because, Sunday’s coming, Mama!  You’d better get ready for it.

Here’s to your slightly less hectic Sunday morning…

Thanks for following along during our 7 Days of Q&A for Pastor’s Wives!  You can catch the Q&A we’ve tackled so far right here:

1. Can a Pastor’s Wife Have a Career?
2. How Can a Busy Pastor’s Wife Take Care of Her Health?

Tomorrow, we’ll tackle the issue of pastor’s wives, little ones, and Sunday services. 

See ya tomorrow morning, bright and early (bring your cup of coffee!) I’ll be here around 6 a.m. (CST) with a dose of grace and encouragement for your day.
