In Reply to: Onion soup mix, 1/2 cup Madiera wine, carrots, potatoes. - Me

Brown roast.
In separate pot cook two onions, two cloves garlic, two stalks celery,chopped, two carrots, in butter until soft. Add to meat. Mix 2 cups of tomato puree and 2 cups red wine. Add a tablespoon of salt, 10 whole peppercorns, 2 bay leaves. Cook on top of stove until tender, about 3 to 4 hours. Do the day before. The next day clean up the meat and slice it. Serve over noodles. It is delicious.

What exactly is YOUR beef??
There's been plenty of people here who said they liked her house, and you're complaining about that.  Then you're complaining about the people who don't like her house!  Why don't you GET A LIFE? 
roast beef
I have found the less water you use in the crock pot the better off the roast will be. It makes moisture of its own. I usually just add about 1/4 cup of robust red wine, some seasonings and let it go.

read the ShortHand and Instant Text boards at Productivity Talk at http://www.productivitytalk.com/forums/index.php. A lot of the techniques can work in other Expanders as well.

Beef about account managers
I'll say right off which company I'm talking about, it's DTS out of TN.  I'm not mad, just at the point of head banging.  I'd really like to know what it is that some account managers do and where they get them. I transcribe on several accounts and without fail, not one of them seems to know anything about the account.  One particular one, "GK", I'll email with a question and IF she answers back, it will be somebody else's question, an "I don't know" or "where did you read that" (well DUH I read it in the account instructions).  You get doctor lists that came out before modern medicine was invented and after requesting new ones 10-20 times, you just give up (some you can't get online).  Then you get emails if you leave a blank for a doctor or feedback from QA that they can't find them either.  Two accounts are GONE just this month, wonder if this has anything to do with it?
wine

I'm not a Transcriptionist yet (still a student, but OLD hehe), my feelings are there's nothing wrong with the occasional glass of wine.  I'd drink it, but I haven't found a wine I like enough for a 2nd glass.  I occasionally have a bit stiffer drink, but once I start working I won't drink 'my' drinks, since they not only relax me, they send to to sleepy-land.  I know several professionals (in other fields) that have a glass of wine when dictating, making notes, preparing briefs, etc.  Its not unheard of.  My feeling is, as long as the limitations are noted and observed what's the harm?  IF it affects your work, time to knock it off. 


 


Hopefully, we're all adults and able to make reasonable judgments on this subject.


 


(did I sound nice enough? that was my goal!! LOL)


WINE

I agree that we shouldn't judge others. Sometimes I need a drink while working, but unfortunately I would fall asleep with one small glass of wine.  I do however know an MT who drinks a lot while working.....I mean a lot...(she has a problem sadly), but the fact remains that even then she is a better MT than most I know.  So I guess everybody's different.  Wine is good for the nerves and the STESS LEVEL....


78 and hot beef on mash potatoes and braed.
Yum!
and dog is labeled beef in the chow mein
Do you think it was a round-up because of rabies or at the restaurants, markets, etc., they were having a shortage of "beef?"

I have an aunt in Arizona who had a lot of cats in her neighborhood that kept disappearing too and found out about 2 blocks away at a restaurant, they were the House Special. lol

Personally, I like beef, but if I ever went to see the process of rounding up the cows and how they are committing mass murder of them, I would probably never eat beef again. Strange world all over. Take Care and keep your dogs inside. :)
are you having wine with dinner?
just curious but your posts are not making much sense. not that there's anything wrong with wine with dinner, it's just maybe not so wise to post on MT boards when you are so "relaxed".
Glass of wine
I did not mean to start a war.  I know the difference between a glass of wine and a "problem with drinking" as my father was an alcoholic as well as ex-husband.  And just to let you know the open bottle that I opened Sunday evening for my glass is still in the wine case/holder with one glass missing.  I will probably have to throw it out as I usually have one glass and forget that it is there to finish it.  Would not make a good alcoholic as I forget to continue to drink -- just my one beer or one glass of wine every couple of weeks.  Also, I usually wait until I am very near completion of my work before I "pop" the cork.  But again, did not mean to start a war. 
Glass of wine
Patti, unfortunately on this board lately, anything can start a war.

Like you, I sometimes start sipping a glass the last 30-60 mins. of my shift - about once a month. Ignore the hostile postings - some of these people read 2 words, take it out of context, and post in response to things that weren't even said.

Personally, I'm glad you posted because I felt a little guilty about sipping an ounce or 2 while working - I grew up in an alcohol-free home, but I certainly saw what alcoholism did to some of my friends' families.
I'm having a homemade roast beef sub and chips for lunch.

DH can probably BBQ hot dogs and burgers for dinner because I don't feel like cooking.


Dinner help! I have a beef round rump roast.. help!
any interesting ideas?
Add cheeseburgers and wine to the menu! nm

A glass of wine with typing

A while back there were several messages when someone made a halfway joke about drinking and I never answered but I do have to admit that when I sometimes have to work on Sunday nights or some late evenings I do sip on a glass of wine while typing, not an entire bottle but a glass of wine.  Just thought I would not comment on it as several people were shocked that anyone would even consider it.  Not all the time but occasionally and in moderation. 


That is my Sunday comment.


If an MT drinks a whole bottle of wine while...
working, there is NO WAY that can't have any affect.  Yikes!  There she.he goes now! 
Opening up Pandora's box of wine
Hey Patti, it's ok to talk about drinking and transcribing. People react strongly because it hits a raw nerve. It's a topic that is kept in the dark. I suspect many transcriptionists do and have drank at the desk. I myself have had a small glass of wine on occasion when I have been so stressed out, like when I have been given a 30-day notice that my work is going to India! Or my foreign-accented dictator yells at me for something stupid! I venture to say that perhaps more transcriptionists have a glass or two of liquor toward the end of their shift than they would care to admit. I just think you got such a response because it is a topic most transcriptionists have thought about in one way or another. I'm not saying it is ok or it is morally wrong. It does happen though.
No bible? No wine? Wait......
I, for one, choose death!

Thank you everyone!! great ideas. curious though as to why beef jerky wouldn't be allowed?? sm
also, i know i have seen insulated boxes before and was wondering if you sent chocolate goodies, would they survive in an insulated box with ice pack? i know it probably takes a few weeks before they receive them.
Grilled beef fajitas with yellow, green, and peppers, red onions,

sean connary, chocolate, white wine
that would be perfect.

Chicken In Wine Sauce (Easy and Quick)
Melt about 6 TBLSP butter in skillet.  Sprinkle boneless, skinless chicken breasts with garlic salt and any other seasonings that you like, dust in flour and brown in butter for about 5 minutes or so, just till a little brown (to your liking).  Put together 1/2 cup white cooking wine, 2 teaspoons roasted chopped garlic (I buy it already chopped), 2 TBLSP lemon juice (I use bottled Real Lemon), and 2 TBLSP dried parsley.  Fresh is good too but I just never have it around.  Dump this on the chicken in the skillet and put a lid on it and simmer for 6 minutes.  Throw a bag of precooked microwave rice in the microwave, plop some on the plate, put the chicken on top and spoon some sauce over it.  Very tasty and ready in less than 30 minutes.  My kind of dinner !!! If you use more than about 4 pieces of chicken breast increase the butter to 8 TBLSP.  I am sure that Parkay (or whatever) would work just as well but I use butter and be done with it.  I usually have broccoli or some other green veggie and a salad with it.  I use my Breadman a lot so I usually have hot rolls as well. 
except I love cooking w/alcohol/wine in sauces!!

Gotta love him.
Onion soup mix, 1/2 cup Madiera wine, carrots, potatoes.

Cook roast slowly (325 for about 3 hours, add the potatoes and carrots, cook another hour, and serve.

Or just slice onions on top the roast, add about 1/2 cup water, put in covered dutch oven, cook same as above, adding potatoes and carrots.
How about grilled fish like salmon? Add a glass of wine and you're all set!

Office lunches come to mind, the whole crew would have a glass of wine
We managed to get through the Friday afternoon following the glass of wine. It's holiday time, birthday time, retirement time. Rare - RARE - occasions. I remember the doctors have a very very slight slur LOL. I probably lost a keystroke or two on my speed. The nurses were happier that usual. The secretaries laughed for a change. It's all good.
My family's not into hard liquor. Beer on one side and wine on the other.
Ugh. I only "like" to drink alcohol maybe once a month.
The blackberry wine made by Amana Colonies is really good, too. sm
I have two bottles now in the frig. It don't take much, either, to anesthetize the pain.
