It's all about mise-en-place...

This morning I made a lovely split pea soup. With a smoked ham hock, some onions, celery, split peas, seasonings and chicken stock. I made it in my slow cooker. It would cook steadily all day, and I would arrive home tonight with a nice warm soup that would be ready for this cool autumn day.

This was the plan. I just forgot to start the slow cooker.

D'oh!
