CORNED BEEF AND CABBAGE
This is so simple that you don't need a real recipe for it. You just take a corned beef brisket and cut it so it fits in your slow-cooker, then add the spice packet that comes with it, plus some coarsely chopped cabbage, carrots, and onions. Sprinkle in a little celery seed, whole black peppercorns, a few red pepper flakes, and a tiny pinch of cinnamon. Then add water to cover, put the lid on, and leave it to cook overnight--12 or 13 hours should do it.

PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES
1/2 c. sugar
1/2 c. brown sugar
1/2 c. butter, softened
1/2 c. peanut butter
2 Tbs. milk
1 tsp. vanilla
1 egg
1 3/4 c. all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
sugar for the tops of the cookies

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
In bowl of KitchenAid mixer, beat sugar, brown sugar, and butter until light and fluffy. Add peanut butter, milk, vanilla, and egg, and blend well.
By hand, stir in flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix well.
Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Flatten in crisscross pattern with a fork dipped in sugar.
Bake 10 to 12 minutes, until golden. Remove from cookie sheets immediately.
