I'm not sure on whether our market is local or national, so I picked local because I think it's a local chain, even though it's huge around here. Things like "my garden" and "the farmer's market" are seasonal, but I picked yes anyway.

Also, I have this theory that I will use the slow cooker all the time, but so far it's only a theory, so it's not checked either. :)

It's not something we used a lot when I was growing up, so I don't have a good sense for how to use it without using recipes. I have trouble finding recipes for it that I want to try. Because it's not something I can just go and do, I find it so much easier to just go and cook something.

I am tempted to get and try using a pressure cooker. My grandmother made some really yummy chicken and potatoes for us in it the last time we were there. It feels like a way to speed up dishes that I would make instead of having to come up with different recipes like for the slow cooker. Also, I love using our convection toaster oven to speed up cooking time and not have to use the big oven.
