CROCK POT LID

November

If you brought a round crockpot to the Harvest Festival Potluck, would you check to see if you have the right lid. The one I brought home is too small for my crockpot. Mine is glass and has some chips around the edge. Let me know if you have the wrong one, so I can exchange it with you. Thanks! Deb Shriver
