Almost Gobbler Day. Who is cooking and who is going out to dinner? Myself cooking. (sm)
We usually have everyone bring a dish of some sorts. Large family, probably about 30 plus. Set up 3 extra tables in the garage for smokers and cardplayers and have a great day stuffing ourselves.
Looking for different side dishes, suggestions anyone?
But expensive gin and expensive cheese. I deserve it.

Where do you think the bacon comes from that you
NM
Bacon, egg, and cheese on toasted bagel. DH cooked again.
Bacon-wrapped scallops, fettucini alfredo,
broccoli, and fresh blueberry shortcake.
Breakfast...bacon, eggs, biscuits and gravy!

Is that microwave?
I used to eat the Microwave stuff until it gave me headaches. Do miss it though, it was great!
I still have my first microwave--big thing. sm
Got it for Christmas the second year we were married. Still works great, too! I can cook a whole meal in it.
hahah, just got my 1st microwave
2 yr ago -- didn't think i 'wanted' one -- but i've been converted :)
Expensive and if lost very expensive
Very expensive and if ever lost would cost me the account. Also I have several docs that are very strict about HIPAA compliance and I am sure that they would not go for this. One would not even let one of the front office gals take home the tapes over the weekend so I could pick up on Sunday and get some of it done over the weekend due to HIPAA so am fairly confident that they would not go for this. So we will see what they say when I tell them I am taking a week off. I do have some gals that will help cover, it is the accounts that hate to have anyone else do it. But I refuse to digital and take my laptop with me to do accounts. I have never and wll never do that while on vacation and they know it.
I haven't put wood in microwave yet...LOL....nm

Pacemaker/Microwave Oven
If you have a pacemaker do you still have to avoid microwave ovens?
Not much different than eating French toast with a side of bacon and scrambled eggs w/cheese. nm

If you microwave your sponge for 30 seconds, supposedly
it kills the germs and bacteria. Or use bleach water for cleaning. I don't know, I almost started a fire with my sponge putting it in the microwave for a minute. I only use washcloths and a fresh one every day or after cleaning up meat juice. Commercials like that are preying on the fears of consumers to reap profit.
I remember our 1st microwave too...thought we were *uptown*
And the old Atari game...we were the only ones in the neighborhood that had one! How about the S&H greenstamp stores....don't know if these were only in the south or not, but I remember filling those stamp books up and going to the store...my sister and I bought a Billy Joel album...yes album! 
Yes, it's microwave popcorn - best invention since the wheel! - nm
i'd worry more about that's getting into the food, from the bowl. Microwave doesn't sound
Well, since he does most of the cooking..
Maybe let him make their dinner and you make yours! That's what I would do. I would not give up my meals for two spoiled rotten kids ;)
cooking in crock pot right now
Either beef stew meat OR a chuck, whatever. One can cream of celery, one can cream of mushroom and one can french onion. Don't have do do a thing. Delicious
I'm cooking. Daughter and son-in-law,
son, husband and myself will be spending Thanksgiving together (after my son and I get off work).
Yes, and I'm the one cooking the turkey
Don't think my guests would appreciate a "tofu turkey". I will do the whole traditional meal and those who choose not to eat the turkey will still have plenty.
How do you get rid of cooking smells?
I've about had it with cooking any beef or pork at all. Even cooking with hot oil.
I cannot get the lingering odors out. I wash the pots and pans, put up the leftovers immediately, clean the stove and all surfaces but it just lingers.
Does anyone have a solution?
I watched also
Bruce Jenner seemed very stiff and almost afraid. I think the team that did a lot of the lifts should not have gotten better scores. The older judge is too hard on them since the celebs have never skated before. I may watch next week just out of curiosity to see who is going bye-bye.
Believe it or not...I just watched
for the very first time. I thought it was a very good movie. Anyone else enjoy it like I did? Thought Russell Crowe did an excellent job.
I have always watched ...
I've always noted what I can make an hour every where I've worked, so it seems strange that no matter what type of reports I have, I'm making around the same an hour... not much fluctation and is less than I can make at another company... (I work 2 different companies)...but I don't know how they could do it...
Ever try cooking a meal in someone else's kitchen? sm
You know how to cook, but have a tough time finding where everything is kept in that kitchen so it takes a while longer. You could cook the same thing in your own familiar kitchen in half the time. This goes for MT, too. It takes a long time, even for those of us who have been transcribing half our lives, to get used to new formats, new work type codes, new voices, and learning idiosyncrasies for each and every dictator. It takes time--a few months or more. Be patient, and the line counts will surely add up as you become more familiar with the account.
son cooking steak and shrimp
what a treat. Someone else cooking for a change.
Make my own. Cooking's a hobby.
I'd almost like to be a caterer or chef, but I don't like working evenings or weekends. LOL
MIL is cooking it- IN- I did it for the first time last year, also IN-

Well, I messed that up, meant to say DH is cooking
x
We're cooking out today....sm
went to the zoo yesterday and did yard chores.
LOL! Possibly my husband's cooking?
You should see some of my personal medical reports other people have transcribed. Jeesh, can I sue as a patient for such poorly transcribed reports? Thanks for the laugh...
I watched CNN yesterday almost all day, just
willing those miners to walk out, but knowing that wasn't likely to happen based on the fact that there was no apparent debris that could be blocking them in. I celebrated with the families when word was circulated that 12 were alive. I called my DH at work and cried like a baby. I was numb after the news came that only 1 survived. I kept hearing stories about how the miners were coming to meet their families at the church, a Red Cross person said the miners were fighting about going to the hospital, that they wanted to see their families, and after the ambulance went out I waited and waited wanting desperately to see those men walk out.
I've Never Watched AI, Believe It or Not!!
Thanks so much for posting the link. He's got a fantastic voice. Even though I'm more than old enough to be his mother, that gray hair is SO sexy.
My sister watched our dog
I brought her home something from the place we visited.
Meat cooking is harder, IMHO
Remebering my childhood as an animal eater, I think it is harder cooking for meat eaters and way more expensive than vegetarian foods.
Take turns w/ menu (and cooking and cleaning..)
I grew up in a house w/ a six-pack of kids and if you didn't like what was for dinner, too #$$# bad, will give it to your brother lol.
What are you cooking for 4th of July? Recipes encouraged please!

I watched the prosecutor video
I watched the video with the interview with the Aruban prosecutor, which was on MSNBC videos in the internet..check it out, maybe it is still there. She said the father was arrested for interfering with an investigation by talking to the boys and telling them no body, no crime.
I watched a special on TV last night
about outsourcing to India and how much they are gaining financially from this situation. It showed some of the girls out shopping in nice malls buying three and four pairs of shoes at a time. Wish I could just buy one pair!! Bring our work back home!!!
Haven't watched the news all day
Boy, that family has been through so much. Sometimes you think you are getting more than you can endure, don't you?
I just watched the new episode. I hope
they can help Jeff out. Tempestt looks very pretty, and she was smart to take a break and go to school. Harvey rocks :)
Have you watched "How I Met Your Mother"?
It's on Monday's, I think. All my days run together, forgive me. It's not reality, but it's really refreshing. Good writing. I enjoy it.
Has anybody watched the TV show "Earl?"
ZZZzzzzz
nice to see some folks watched...sm
waiting to see how this progresses - hope it lasts as a reality show - seems like there is less *bickering* that with Dancing with the Stars, though I like that show too but NOT the judges there....*grin*
Haven't watched yet tonight (sm)
I taped it so I will watch it another time. I like Chris although he hasn't been as good the last couple of weeks. I love, love, love Taylor although he also has not really been his usual self the last few weeks. I also liked Mandisa. Paris and Katherine are great too. Oh, and Elliot. I DO NOT care for Kellie or Bucky, most especially Kellie. I think she is trying to play the cute down-on-the-farm girl like Carrie Underwood and, honey, she needs to stop already. Please, please let her be gone next. I'll settle for Ace being gone too though.
I haven't watched until tonight.
I would say that Kat has a really small range and tries to hit notes she just can't hit. The first and third song were just not good for her. Taylor aced two of the three. Levon is a good song and I think would have been good for him, but he seemed kind of nervous. All in all, he is the winner. Even Simon said so. He's adorable.
My husband and I watched The Notebook (sm)
We both teared up. He told me that he loved me like that, and that I was his Allie. My birthday was shortly thereafter and on my envelope he wrote "To My Allie." What a guy I'm married to. After 23 years of marriage, our love is still growing strong!
My daughter and I watched and cried, too. Seems so
unfair, but then I believe God needed him. For a barb to get him in between the ribs and directly into his heart, God said, "It is time."
LOL. You're right. It's been a while since I watched SNL. Thanks for the reminder.

I watched this video and sent it to my US Senator and also
