On 2nd thought, if you're NOT a good Italian style cook, make something you ARE good at. Leave th

I read that, too. I love to cook, too, but I wouldn't want to be a chef or caterer.
Working mostly evenings and complaining patrons. I don't know. There's this little yuppie deli downtown that I would love to open one very similar to. But would I want to do it everyday? Then again, I like gardening and canning. I could be a farmer and sell organic vegetables. Or I could sell homemade canned foods, but there's so much regulation there and worry about botulism. I also like writing. My true dream is to be a paid and published writer. I don't care about fame or fortune, just enough to be able to work a flexible schedule and support my family. My family says it's a pipe dream that everyone wants but few people get.
My husband feels the same way. Fortunately I'm a good cook but sometimes I need to get away from
that last recipe sounds good!
I actually do keep track of these recipes believe it or not. Gives me something to look forward to when I am working. DINNER!
MMM that last dish sounds yummy with the pork chops and potatoes. Thanks!
Anybody have a good chili recipe
out there that is fast and easy?
A recipe I saw in Good Housekeeping!
Carolina pulled chicken from March issue. Looks good.
Does anyone have a good recipe for salmon.
Something easy and quick.
anyone have a good crock pot chicken recipe?
Does anyone have a good recipe for scalloped potatoes?
I googled it and got a few, but I know the best cooks are on this board. Any recipes that are easy? I've never made them from scratch before.
Thanks
Any Cajun out there with a good gumbo recipe?
Need a good pasta salad recipe..(sm)
We are going to have an easy and cool summer dinner tonight. Making chicken salad sandwiches. Want a good pasta salad recipe to go with it. Preferably a creamy (mayonnaise/sour cream) style. Getting bored with the italian dressing recipe lol
Thanks!
Me too! I'm looking for a good chicken enchilada recipe!
Need a good recipe for home brew flea dip
I have a shih-tsu and 120 pound lab/blue tick hound. Needless to say, Savannah would cost me an arm and a leg with conventional dips. If anyone knows of a good home brew I would surely appreciate it.
Sounds good. Spill the beans with the recipe!
Posted another quick and good one on recipe board for you.

A good article to read...

Good question, but that's what I read...
...and now that I've cleaned my office, I can't find the book I read it in!
I did look up an association of science writers and they have lots of info, and this page seems to have a link to the discussion of whether science writers need a Master's degree. It's too early in the a.m. for me to have read it, though!

Good read. Thanks for posting.

you need to read her post again, then take a good look at your own.

Good way to keep her accounts. SOMEONE has to read this stuff over
EVERYONE makes mistakes.
Good thing I proof read LOL
I was just proofreading my reports before I send it and instead of typing that the lady hit her head on a window, I typed she hit her head on a widow. Ha Ha. I thought to myself - hope they weren't on the way to the funeral. Okay, having way too much fun here.
Good question. Can't wait to read your replies.:)
I am in a similar situation. I have no idea what to do either but don't want to turn either one away. One I have had for 3 months but get paid equivalent to once a month which sent me on my job search in the first place. Two of the jobs called me back and they both want FT. One is more flexible and the work is easier but the other seems more reliable and answers e-mails right away. They both have direct deposit which is huge for me. The one I have now doesn't. I am so confused. Need to make a decision today. Maybe we should team up?
Let us know how what you decide. I will be checking back to see how things went. Good luck.:)
Actually READ my post. I wrote "A GOOD COMPANY"
Thick, thick, thick.
I read recently (think it was Good Housekeeping) that it was one of the top 5 up and coming (sm)
businesses - think it was actually 3rd... it was an impressive article - from what I have read - very impressive company. The gal I know makes a ton of money but she works her butt off and loves her work and her company
Gotta read the whole thing, says supposedly good sense...
…Did not say they did....supposedly and do 2 different things- right?
Read the tips from the poster at the top of the board about Word. Good suff! nm

read the whole post - good lord- you act like I am telling you to work for free--
The fact is "YOU ARE NOT TYPING THE LINE" So why get paid to type that line?
I merely suggested hourly pay. Good Grief!! If you people didn't have something to argue about, I think you would all go bananas.
Anything I don't have to cook! (nm)

Don't worry about it. I used to cook like that, too.
I'd be so tired from working all the time that it was Hamburger Helper, fish sticks, or chicken nuggets. Our grocery bill used to be cheap, too. Hubby and I trade off cooking now. Honestly, we're trying to eat healthier to lose weight. It's a "hobby" that has helped bring us together more in our marriage. We find new recipes on the Internet all the time. Gotta have variety somewhere.... LOL
I love to cook but
it isn't a lot of fun cooking for just 2. We eat out a lot and more and more places are offering carry out, such as Applebee's. Also check out your meat counter at the grocery. They have more and more stuff already prepared so all you have to do is heat it up. Like get a meat loaf, some already prepared mashed 'taters, open a can of green beans or whatever and have some already prepared salad and presto, you have a "home cooked" meal. Well, maybe not exactly home cooked but as good as most restaurant food and a lot cheaper. We also like hamburger and tuna helpers. shhhhh don't tell my grown up kids that.
Whatever DH decides to cook here.

You have time to cook?
Not me. I work full time and have two small kids at home all day so it is impossible. I wish I had time to cook though. I just stock my freezer with frozen foods, and on some days my DH will pick up something on his way home from work.
What else do you like to cook in your crockpot?
I love a roast in the crockpot but what else is really good?
Dairy is the best, but I'm not a cook, so
I'm not sure if sour cream or plain yogurt would work in a soup. Another idea would be to sweeten it. You could experiment with small bowls of it. If it were too salty, it would be potatoes that would help.
Oh my ... you have it rough. I don't think I even know how to cook without onions! sm
For my meatloaf, I use salsa too, plus hamburger, hot Jimmy Dean sausage, breadcrumbs, & egg. Heck, this is making me hungry for meatloaf now! :-)
My kinda cook! I can sure relate! nm

I find that if I don't buy things to cook with...

Going to be hot in the South. Too hot to cook. We're having

Does anyone eat out a lot. I don't like to cook but am bored with the same old fast food.
Got any places not too expensive where I can get food to go. To go is the key. Bored with McDonalds, Wendys, Burger King, delivery pizza. (Boston Market?)
Thanks.
Hi Memaw- you know, it's not as hard to cook for a veggie as you might think, unless
she is particularly fussy. There are so many good vegetarian cookbooks that any creative vegetable side dish could be made into a mean main dish for a vegetarian.
I cook mine low - about 225 or 250, for about 10 minutes per pound

Next time cook it in the oven wrapped in foil. sm
This recipe is from pre-crockpot era.
Double wrap the roast in foil. Poke holes in the foil with a fork and put the roast with the poked holes side down on the broiler pan. Bake at 350 according to the size of the roast per pound. Very yummy and very easy. Pan drippings make the best gravy.
have to cook chicken for my BF...the 20-cloves of garlic, is that from Rachel Ray?
Wait, I think it was from the barefoot contessa show, I saw her do that but not in a crockpot.
(We are looking for a place to buy chickens locally as I still believe no animal has to suffer for me, smile!)
Just because I am lazy, is that recipe already posted here, can I do a search to find it?
Thank you everyone!
No, my turkey is still in my freezer. I refused to cook this year.
I'm either going to cook it at Christmastime or slap some Cajun sauce on it and BBQ when the 18" of snow melts.
It costs approximately $275 a month. I do have family to cook for, but
that has not been a problem at all. After the first 3 days, I have been fully satisfied on the program, and I am one who has NEVER been able to diet for more than a day or 2. I cook whatever they want which is mostly what I can eat too for my lean and green; beef/chicken/pork/fish and veggies, but I skip the potatoes, bread, and all starchy foods.
To afford the program, I cut way back on buying junk food and soda. Everyone is eating much healthier around here and neither my family nor me feel in the least deprived.
All I can really tell you is it is working for me like nothing has in the past and it's been worth every penny.
I thought there was one to cook in crockpot. Don't have time to do the stove thing today but than
:(
Daughter is vegetarian. I cook a turkey and she hits the side dishes. (sm)
We do pretty well with this. I just make sure I have some of her favorites so she still feels like she is having a feast.
I saw a picture someone made of a "turkey" they had formed out of raw veggies. I think the basic form was one of those rounded shaped loaves of bread and the veggies were on toothpicks. the head and some tail feathers were made from construction paper. It seemed like an entertaining idea especially if you had small children around.
