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

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.
Dinner help! I have a beef round rump roast.. help!
any interesting ideas?
Most in-house hospital jobs allow only 30 minutes for lunch! So I wouldn't call an hour lunch
"rigid."  If you are an employee, there are rules, set schedules, etc. that you have to expect. 
Don't the chips get a little soggy?

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? 
There's nothing to pot roast
You put the roast in the crock pot in the morning and forget about it. At about 4:00 put the potatoes and carrots in with the meat and it's done about 1 1/2 hours later. That's it. Easy as pie. I work and have kids also. But it can be done if you pick the right stuff.
Pig roast
Here, out in the boonies in PA, we call the local pig farmer who comes out the night before with the roaster, the pig and all the other stuff. He sets it all up for you. All you have to do is turn it now and then. Costs about $200.00. Maybe the organizer of the last pig roast could supply you with how they did it. We just add baked potatoes, corn on the cob, get every one to either bring a side dish or dessert, tap the keg, turn up the music and Partaaayyy....
Pot roast

Hi there,


Here is my pot roast recipe for crock pot.  I dust it with flour, garlic powder, salt and pepper, brown it in a skillet, then place it in the crockpot with potatoes, carrots, celery, more garlic and pepper and let it cook for 6 to 8 hours on low.  It is so delicious!! 


Hey, besides transcribing I am also a travel agent.  It is fabulous all the perks we get, check out my site at www.manzotravel.com and if you are interested go to www.teamresult.com and watch the short video.  Now we get commission on our travel and vacation instead of Orbitz or Expedia!!!


 


 


 


I do have kids. They can have pop and chips, but I try to avoid it.
And Iecture them on the value of healthy food.  LOL  My diet used to be horrible until it caught up with me with my last pregnancy.  I was frequently hypoglycemic and had high blood sugar.  Then I had two irregular EKGs before a surgery.  I've basically been scared into becoming healthier.
Ice chips. Pepto Bismol should NOT be given because it contains

and also can cause Reye's syndrome in children.  I agree with the spirite and crackers although it's best to not have bubbles...so open the drink and pour some over an ice cube and let it sit for a while.  The stomach needs to settle down on its own, and if it doesn't, you need to call the doc and ask for suppositories so he won't get dehydrated.


After the stomach settles down, you can try the brat diet.  Bananas, rice, applesauce and toast.


 


coffee and potatoe chips...
cant seem to break the habit...
Beef in Wine
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.
Beef Stew - Yum Yum!

To really beef up your expander... sm
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.
MTs out to lunch
Congratulations! I am sure you worked very hard and deserved it.
No--she is lunch!!!!

lunch
FOr me i just took a lunch without never punching in or out.
I also roast them with a bit of a twist

Get some Ranch dressing mix, sprinkle a little bit of the dry mix in with the olive oil...most anyone likes ranch anymore and it really adds a kick to them.


Good luck!


Leftover Ghirardelli chips have been working for me!
Mmmmmmm!!!  My chocolate pecan pie was good, but straight out of the bag seems to be just as good.  Hope it gets better for you.
Beef stew in crockpot

What's for dinner? Beef stew here.

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?
breaks and lunch

I think the way it goes is that you must be allowed to take breaks and lunch.  I was an employee for a company that did not care when you worked, as long as you met turnaround time. 


Could you have lunch delivered for
the staff one day? I'm not suggesting anything too pricey, but something they all enjoy. A donation in their name to an animal rescue in your area might be appreciated as well. Congratulations on your puppies!
Roast with potatoes and carrots,
Love my crock pot!
I've been to several pig roast, very good! - sm
As for how to do it, that is if you go the pig route, make sure it is a pig roaster (huge) and have some one who knows what they are doing cook it. It takes quite a long time to cook 12+ hours or more, cannot remember if they started it the night before or not (our old neighborhood had one every year). Or if you don't want the trouble just say you are having a big cookout, go with corn on the cob, hamburgers, hot dogs, macaroni salad, potato salad, etc. Obvious have everyone bring a dish if possible. If you know any with Sirius or the other satelite radio you can get some great music. We did both records/CDs and a live band at our pig roast and the annual crab feast. Yum! Had a lot of fun when we lived there.
On the menu...pork roast w/
mashed potatoes and mixed veggies. The pork roast is in the crock pot slow roasting all day while I work my fingers to the bone!! It will be served with homemade mashers with brown gravey and mixed veggies.uuuummmmm!! Can't wait til dinner. ;)
Starbucks Italian Roast for me, although
I am trying to wean myself off that and onto Pierce Brothers Free Trade Coffee. The Red Eye is a hearty blend, so I may be able to do it--if I take it slowly. I'm hooked...
Homemade is just better!

There sure aren't many of us around Nature Girl!!  I'm 41 and most of the people my age have no idea how to can or freeze things.  I brought in salsa once to work and there had been this article about botulism in the newspaper and a couple of people were very hesitant about trying my salsa.  I asked them if they thought that I would put my 4-year-old at risk and yes I do pressure cook at the correct temp for the correct time!! Hear that POP.  I haven't been able to do as much as I'd like with my daughter being young, and working 2 part-time jobs, but always have to do a large variety of jellies and jams for Christmas gifts - the relatives pout if I don't because store bought definitely is not the same!!  Will be drying apple chips this weekend and making applesauce and applebutter.  The husband and his brothers own a 5,000 acre farm so I am spoiled with the veggies and I have a large garden.  My dream someday is to put in a small orchard.  In all my free time.... 


Homemade sav???

He is treating his wound with a homemade sav.  I cannot find "sav" anywhere.  It sav, sauve??? I know its like a lotion but I'm not sure how to spell it.  Thanks!


Mexican casserole with tortillas and chips & salsa
but thanksgiving dinner has got to be my next favorite for sure!
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. :)
So, instead of dinner, whats for LUNCH?
YUM  
I don't know, but my appetite for lunch just left me.

You 2 should find each other and do lunch sometime! I'm too far away to join ya...nm
s
If you are FT employee, must take two 15 min breaks and 30 min lunch
But, I am sure, many MTs do not do this and say they do.
Whats for lunch/dinner??

I am just curious what everyone is having for lunch or dinner.  Need some ideas on what to cook.


Have a good Sunday afternoon.


take my lunch break and take a dip in the pool

I had one who decided lunch time ....sm
would be a good time to dictate.  Opening wrappers, eating, drinking, etc.  I was so repulsed by the eating sounds, I was ready to give them up.  I called my contact person about 3 x and asked her  to ask him to stop.  Finally, I called the manager.  When she approached him about it, HE DENIED IT!!!  Said he didn't eat while dictating.  Of course, she believed him and was dumbfounded at what I could be hearing!  I told her I knew what I was hearing and  it had to stop.  Anyone who has ever heard that sound while transcribing KNOWS they are eating.  What a jerk.  Interestingly, the eating stopped, and I still have the account.
Lunch- -most important meal of the day!
I work 35 hours a week. I have a scheduled 8-hour shift and take a 1-hour lunch break, leaving me with 7 hours of production a day. My advice is to do the 35-hour schedule. You'll probably be more productive (lph) at 35 hours than 40, and you'll always be able to add extra hours later if you want to. Don't skip lunch or eat at your desk. You'll feel so much better if you take a real lunch break everyday.
Roast, potatoes, and carrots in the crock pot...yum!

Pork Roast "partial" recipe because I

usually never measure anything, just eyeball the ingredients, but here goes.


It all goes by taste...like it spicy? add more hot pepper. Like it sweeter? Add a bit more brown sugar.


I marinate my pork roast and/or ribs in apple juice and a little bit of apple cider vinegar (not much...you want to taste the apple, not vinegar),  for 24 hours. The vinegar helps tenderize


Then I mix a combination of dark brown sugar, white sugar, a little crushed or ground red pepper or smoked cayenne pepper (regular is okay if you don't have the smoked), a little cinnamon (not much of this either or it will overpower the other seasonings), garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, a little cumin and nutmeg powder (for smokiness) . I mix all this together and rub it into the roast. I use my stovetop smoker or rotisserie to cook the roast.


For the cinnamon is about a tsp, or what fits in the palm of your hand when you curve your hand (not piled high either), The cumin and nutmeg is really a large "pinch."


Maybe some day I will figure out the true measurements, but I've been doing this for years and just know by looking how much of each ingredient is necessary.  After a few times, you'll be able to tell how much of each ingredient to use for your taste.


Pork Roast Grill Recipe
I usually make pork chops on the girll, but I have a pork roast that I want to make on the grill and I was wondering if anyone had any recipes.  I usually marinate it but was looking to see if someone had another type of recipe using just spices and/or herbs or just something new and different I could do or have with it.  TIA.
homemade stromboli..

he has already requested that for tonight.. he even went and bought the groceries for it!  So, I guess that's it for me!


I don't do homemade anymore
Being single, its just easier nowadays to buy chili, the fritos and cheese. One thing I NEVER EVER EVER EVER buy (or made) chili with beans .... el yucko!!!!
homemade soup
I keep the best leftovers in the deep freeze to make soup.  Tonight's soup  has veggies, including lima beans, a wonderful chicken stock, and some diced up london broil and potatoes cut very fine to thicken the soup.  All these leftovers in the soup bring back memories of meals gone by!    I just throw it all in the crockpot and let it do its thing.
we're doing homemade BBQ...sm
chips, slaw, potato salad, and drinks.  Ice cream for dessert and fruit.  Easy and delicious...
Soy chips are great! More flavor than rice cakes. Pretzels are no fat. nm
