In Reply to: Earthquake cake? It that like Mudslide cake with a mocha drizzle?????????????? - Double YUM _
you put the pecans and coconut on the bottom of the pan and layer the chocolate cake mix with a drizzled layer of cream cheese and (can't find my recipie!!) When you bake it the cake cracks in the areas that you have drizzled the cream cheese mixture, thus the name. It's soooooo good!

Just about anything CHOCOLATE. German chocolate, Texas sheet cake, etc. YUM YUM ;-) nm
Just one? Texas cake (chocolate cake no frosting) and ...
the other favorite is butter cake with chocolate frosting. Or chocolate with chocolate fudge frosting. Not sophisticated, but wonderful choices all.
Chocolate with a chocolate ganache frosting and some extra whipped cream. nm

I agree. Men should be the icing on the cake, not the whole cake.
company - GERMAN.........sm
Dell is a German company - so being a Dell lover from way back, I paid BIG bucks for my 2nd computer with Dell........like close to $3500 back in 1999 or 2000. So, for me to get another Dell for $499 is a blessing. Germany is known for the quality in the products that they make. And now they certainly do outsource, but they are not giving away your medical records or personal info or Social Security numbers or your identity.
I'm down on outsourcing OUR jobs away............
You should really learn to pick and choose all your battles.......
My daughter had a German friend and
her mom was the same way. I don't think is anything personal, just the way they are. I would try talking to her about things of her county..ask questions. Imagine you being there...you would feel a little out of place too.

I like to have flavored coffee in the afternoon - German Chocolate Cake coffee from Barnie's is good and no cals (well maybe literally 5!). Otherwise, brush your teeth :)
I won Chocolate too and it was such a fun wk
        
yep, rum cake mmm
your making me hungry!!
Actually, it is not I who wants my cake and eat it too
but it is the client. When I started with them, I had no previous experience. They didn't want to hire as employee, but wanted IC, so they don't pay benefits, etc., but they want to call the shots, telling me no subcontracting, they want me to pick up tapes-no courier, they refused to telecommute, they want me to go out of my way to abbreviate, etc. to cut lines as much as possible, and they want to dictate pay per line.
bribe myself with chocolate
I set my goal of 30 minutes, 200 lines, whatever, and once I meet my goal I get to eat a piece of candy that I keep sitting below my monitor as motivation. Reese's peanut butter cups and Dove chocolate are my fave!
chocolate fountain
I saw one of these at the opening of a store and the person that owned the fountain, stayed and attended to it. I didn't see how it was set up or taken down. It was a really neat thing and the fresh fruits and other accompaniments were yummy.
Chocolate cravings...
I find it more tempting working at home to eat junk -esp. when I get bored transcribing. SO, I just don't keep it in the house cause if it's here, I'll probably sooner or later eat some! LOL...Unfortunately, my husband (who is trim, dang him!) always has a bag or two of mini candy bars in the fridge. I just put them to the back where I can't see them. Or, I will buy the Slim-Fast snack bars, which are QUITE good! Only about 120 calories each, which is better than 280 for a candy bar. Hope that helps!
I won chocolate this year! Thank you again.
love
chocolate and lots of it! nm

I made the cake before -
and it was soooo good - rich of course, but delicious. Gotta try the meatloaf tonight. Thx for the recipe.
Wedding Cake
Could anyone direct to me some good web sites with wedding cake pictures? I have found a few, but it seems they are all "cookie cutter" and I am looking for something original, but not crazy. Am having a smaller wedding (under 100), outdoor. Any links anyone could provide, I would be majorly appreciative! (I have cake appointments next week and need to provide some ideas for them.)

Has anyone had Vesuvius cake?
It's a layered cake that sort of looks like a volcano.....with a layer of chocolate cake, a layer of cheesecake, a layer of chocolate mousse, topped off with a really thick ganache icing! Yum!!!!
piece of cake?
Decided to try transcription after I tired of nursing (management). Thought it would be a snap. Suffice it to say that a good MT has a broader knowledge base than a registered nurse.
That DOES take the cake! FIRST PRIZE! ;D

Piece of Cake....
I made the transition from doing multispecialty clinic and acute care transcription to Radiology about five years ago, and it was one of the easiest transitions I've ever made. Just have a couple of good radiology reference books and I don't think you'll have any problem at all. The cpl sounds very good, too.
If you have any questions, feel free to email me. I attempted to email you a couple of good reference materials, but the email came back as undeliverable.
Good luck
I love the RS chocolate pecan ones especially! (nm)
And dunk the extra into chocolate!
 I am changing the meaning of this emoticon. She is melting chocolate!
Thanks for reminding me I have bananas in my freezer, lol. Maybe I'll make some banana bread today too.
Chocolate-covered strawberries.....Yum Yum!!!

Me, too, but it's the dark chocolate. I get up and do something else, have a few bites, and then

Chocolate banana milkshakes. sm
Nephrology doc had me on these twice a day when my protein and electrolytes were low. Ice cream, 1 banana and milk, add chocolate, whip it up in the blender. I even used to throw my multivitamin in there for good measure. Tasted so good I got addicted to them. LOL-it was a great chocolate fix. I think you could add some peanut butter in there, too, for a different twist and it has plenty of protein.
I'll take anything that's dark chocolate, thanks! :) nm

Well, I'll be dipped in chocolate!
Yes, I am connected through a VPN! That would explain it . . . when I'm not connected, I don't have the problem! Thanks so much - you've solved my problem!
Talking about chocolate frosting--
I bought 1 of these smaller, looks like birthday cake, at the store yesterday and ate almost the whole thing, after dinner. I paid for that last night - did not have my head high enough up on my pillow and the reflux kicked in. I should know than to do that but gosh, the chocolate was saying eat me - and I was just thinking about that diet yesterday.
Thanks! I am going to try and make the cake this weekend.
I will try and make the meatloaf too. I have made several of her recipes, they were all great. One of my friends recently went to Savannah, GA and ate at The Lady & Sons (her restaurant). She said it was awesome!
Okay...hand over the cake recipe;

What is your absolute favorite cake?
If you had to pick just one cake, what would it be? I love just about any kind of cake, but I have to say honeybun is my all-time favorite. I think I could eat the whole thing if I tried.
Any other absolute favorite desserts? Oatmeal candy has been at the top of my list since childhood. My mom always made it at Christmas and now I always like to do the same. Yummy!
King Cake and let me be the one that gets the baby!

My family makes a cake that is very
We just call it "Pineapple Nut Cake" . . . basically, the pineapple is the liquid for the batter, and because of the cream cheese frosting, folks always say, "This is the best carrot cake I've ever had!" It doesn't even have the spices that carrot cake has (but I believe that a Hummingbird cake does have the spices, but also has the pineapple and pecans).
Anyway, one of my favorties.
I think you, like me, thought this would be a piece of cake
I had worked in hospital settings, doctor offices, etc. and when I started training (on the job for a year) I kept my nose in dictionaries, English and medical. Just because you have any background in something medically related does not mean you can be a transcriptionist. I trained for a year and before I was able to have production, had to have less than 3 errors (either English or medical) on each page and yet type 75 minutes of dictation a day- sorry but so long ago do not know now how much that was but quite a bit. I think you have probably gotten in over your head with no training per se and having said that yes I most certainly think you should do at least 1200 per day- you need speed as well as training to make a go of this. People who say no background should consider themselves very lucky to have made it.
I, like you, thought it would be a piece of cake
And I trained hard for a year even though other hospital work, clinics, etc. I have been at it for years now, also.
Radiology is a piece of cake
and you can get great line rates. One person's experience is not anothers...
I agree with the suggestion of dark chocolate.
Also, I keep a bag of Hershey's kisses hidden. Whenever I need a boost, I just let one melt in my mouth. I can't eat an entire candy bar or bag of M&Ms. Too much sugar!

It's when they get mobile is when the going gets tough. I had to have my sister babysit while I had some serious deadlines to hit. I couldn't do it with a mobile toddler running around. Sometimes I tried to split my shift and working some through the night, but that didn't last long because I needed sleep and very well couldn't sleep with a baby in the house, during the daytime, that is.
