I personally love my crockpot and use it at least 2 or 3 times per week.

The founder of GlobalGormet.com, which is one of the first cooking sites on the Internet, and more recently NewGreenBasics.com, Kate Heyhoe has written several cookbooks.

The Guy Grub Guy has a kitchen that looks more like a hardware store. He cooks in a shop apron and wears a hard hat.

Chances are you're not going to find a cooking video that will have you laughing like Average Betty's will. Average Betty does for cooking what Saturday Night Live does for the nightly news.
