Slow cooker recipes

2006-01-07T21:20:34Z

Okay so I asked for a slow cooker for christmas mostly b/c I've never had one and D says he likes to make chili in them. Whatever.

So I got it and now I have no idea what to do with it. They don't teach you this at the Culinary Insistute. But I'm a chef so I figured I can wing it and I now have potatoes and onion and corn and spices and wine and milk and crab in the pot, but now what do I do.

it looks weird and the recipes on the little book is nothing like it.

So I figured I would come to my recipe network :) I need some advice from the novice's here on slow cookers!

Car got broken into late Sunday night or Early Monday Morning. Didn't think they took anything but the registration papers for my car and the misc envelopes. No big deal, copy of registration I can deal with, radio which is detachable but a POS was still there, baffled but no big deal. Well I was wrong, I left my blue denim summer purse in there with my passport and my driver's license (needed passport for somehting a week ago and just didn't put it away :( and my companies credit cards and now I can't find the purse and I am 98% sure I had it in the car. so yeah I've been calling around all morning to cancel and halt credit cards and SSN and Passport and DMV and woo yeah having fun now.

I am Gourmet Girl

Click on the picture below to read more:

Take the 'What Kind of Girl Are You?' quiz at CookingToHookup.com

</div> The Gourmet Girl is a Foodie with a capital F. All her activities seem to revolve around food, even when she's on vacation. She'd prefer to be mushroom hunting, sampling the wine country, or making a culinary tour of the South of France with the Michelin restaurant guide tucked under her arm. Or she might just rent a villa and spend the entire time in the kitchen, cooking elaborate dinners for friends and family. Here's the key to the Gourmet Girl: she's a connoisseur. She appreciates the finer things, and she'll gladly pay more for them. She will shell out $1.59 for a blood orange instead of 69 cents for the navel variety, and it's not because they are fancier and more expensive. She doesn't care about status or prestige. For the Gourmet Girl, it's all about quality. She selects cars and clothes -- anything she buys -- based on how well they are made. While the Uptown Girl may sleep on high-thread-count, all-cotton sheets simply because she always has, the Gourmet Girl does it because, like The Princess and the Pea, she can feel the difference. She Might Be a Gourmet Girl if: 1. She drives: a practical car, often higher end. Japanese or European, but always highly rated (Gourmet Girls do their research). Volvo, Volkswagen, Honda, etc. 2. She can talk for more than ten minutes about: The difference between a California chardonnay and a French sauvignon blanc. 3. She begins her sentences with: "Jeffrey Steingarten says..." 4. She'd never: drink wine out of a box. 5. She owns any of the following: Kitchen Aid mixer, a complete set of All Clad pots and pans, Silpat baking mats, tins of foie gras she brought back from France. I can live with this very nicely.

Mount St. Helens

2004-10-01T22:34:31Z

http://i.a.cnn.net/cnn/2004/TECH/science/10/01/mount.st.helens/story.msh.erupt.jpg

VANCOUVER, Washington (CNN) -- Mount St. Helens began blowing a large cloud of smoke and steam Friday afternoon following a week of close monitoring by scientists.

White ash also spewed from the volcano for a short period, but no magma has been detected.

Officials placed the region around the mountain on a volcanic advisory on Wednesday.

The advisory that was issued is the third of four levels -- with the fourth being eruption.

The volcanic dome within the crater of the mountain has moved about three inches since Monday, according to U.S. Geological Survey geologist John Major.

Friday's event was described as a small explosion by geologist Tom Pierson. It could be the first of larger events, including an eruption, or it could be the end of a recent pattern of activity.

Pierson said the event "was really a hiccup. [Eruptions] could be a little bigger once real magma is involved."

Late last week, seismologists began recording "swarms" of earthquake activity from the volcano.

The activity increased last weekend, and the Cascades Volcano Observatory scientists reported three to four quakes a minute with the largest measuring 3.3.

Scientists reported some fracturing to the glacier; however, no cracking was detected on the outside of the crater.

"The cracking is much less cracking than past events in 1980, 1986, but the seismic pattern is similar," Major said. "It looks like something similar to 1984, 1985, and 1986 dome-building eruptions."

Thermal imaging is tracking changes in the lava dome and the side of the volcano for signs that magma might be moving in the mountain.

"The one thing that can not be ruled out is an eruption accompanied by a small explosion," said Elliot Endo, scientist in charge at Cascades Volcano Observatory.

Scientists continue to monitor the activity.

While an eruption could ooze magma within the crater, the biggest concern is a larger cloud of ash that would be spread by the wind and could become an aviation hazard, scientists have said.

Scientists do not expect a repeat of the 1980 eruption.

With an earthquake measuring a magnitude of 5.1, Mount St. Helens erupted on May 18, 1980. The north face collapsed in a massive rock debris avalanche.

The nine-hour eruption blew over or killed nearly 230 square miles of forest and sent a mushroom cloud of ash thousands of feet into the sky. That eruption killed 57 people.

Although some areas around the mountain have been closed to climbers and hikers this week, the visitor center just five miles away remains open.

Update on yesterday

2004-09-16T16:37:48Z

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Matt then has the nerve to ask Dwayne for a ride home, he said he can get to work, but he can't get home. Dwayne being the VERY smart man he is, said, okay on some conditions. 1. You take ALLL the trash out of the living room and stop putting it out there (8 bags and counting, and I will rant about fruit flies later) 2. You and I are going to have a talk, and I will drive around with you in the car till I am satisfied with the talk. He said he is mentioning the bills, the insults from Wendi and if we don't get our money we will be taking them to Small claims court. I said, tell him we don't want too, we just want to get the money they owe us.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Well this never happened; at 9pm Dwayne called Matt and said, "Am I giving you only a ride home?" Matt hedges for a bit, and says “no, Wendi too.” Dwayne is like, "No, I am not" Matt asked why, Dwayne points out that she called “[me] my girlfriend a cunt, no way am I letting her get in my car" Matt says fine, “we will just stay here then” and hung up on Dwayne. /sigh

Okay now they have trash in the living room, bags of it, I took pictures yesterday because I went in to do dinner and there were Fruit flies EVERYWHERE, hundreds of them! I've never dealt with fruit flies, so I call up my Mom, ask her what to do, she says we need to get rid of the food source, I ask her what the hell that is. She says it usually moist organic material, like food and what not. I said there is no food lying around the kitchen, she says is there trash? I beeline for Matt's and Wendi’s trash and sure enough hundreds more /gag

What do I do? Mom says simply you need to get rid of the trash or they will keep multiplying. That pissed me off, now I have to do their fucking trash, because they are lazy assholes who don't respect anything? Fuck that!!! I was going to move it outside to outside their window, but Dwayne said simply they won't care and then we will be evicted for having trash on our porch. /sigh

I asked him what should I do, he gets very depressed and says I don’t know, I said I am about to leave because of this, so I will just take out their trash. He grabs my hand and says ‘no, don’t do that. I will talk to Matt tomorrow,” I said great and that means instead of 300 fruit flies we will have like 700, I can’t do that babe, I need to do something now.

So, I get the bright idea to spray the WHOLE house with Kitchen cleaner, 409 to be exact, since it doesn’t have bleach it won’t stain anything. So I double and triple bag their trash, tying it as tightly as I can to make sure no holes are in there and then piling it up on their door. After that, I take the cats and put them in our room, put a towel against the door and the floor to keep them from inhaling the fumes and proceeded to douse everything with 409, the kitchen, the dining room, the walls, the doors, the furniture, everything I can think of. I do our bathroom too, and then close us off in the bedroom for a good hour.

After that, I went out and with Dwayne’s phone took pictures of the mass amounts of dead fruit flies and their trash. As well as the fly strips we bought a day ago, that are covered with it. Then I will be getting a copy of the lease and the “Roommate agreement” they all had to sign and will be working on getting them legally evicted if there is indeed a clause for Fair and Respecting roommates, which I think there is. And now that I have taken pictures I will be taking out their trash tonight since I don’t want to get sick and I am pretty sure hundreds of flies are not something that will keep you healthy.

If she wasn’t such a vindictive little bitch, I probably would just pile it on their bed, but alas I can’t. And the key entry lock we bought for our door didn’t work so we don’t have anything to barricade ourselves.

You want to play hardball? Okay, Bring It On!

WW3 is now just beginning. Let the Games begin!

Ooooooooooo so many good things happened today.

Lets see. One The primaries happened, and the soft numbers are My dad 7014 and his opponent 5510 Wooot, go dad!!! I am very excited for him and can't wait for November 2nd!

Oh and Matt's Echo got towed. *evil grin* AND because of the Expired licence tags and Illnois license plates here in Washington it is going to cost him like $700 dollars on top of Wendi's ticket that is around $400 - $600. Hmmmm Karma anyone?

It gets even better, Matt calls up Dwayne and says, Please be completely honest with me. "Did you or Teresa call the cops last night?" We didn't, so Dwayne said I can say with complete certainity, we did not. Matt was like then i don't understand why we got towed. Dwayne said well someone else probably called on you guys.

Matt then has the nerve to ask Dwayne for a ride home, he said he can get to work, but he can't get home. Dwayne being the VERY smart man he is, said, okay on some conditions. 1. You take ALLL The trash out of the living room and stop putting it out there (8 bags and counting, and I will rant about fruit flys later)
2. You and I are going to have a talk, and I will drive around with you in the car till I am satisfied with the talk.
He said he is mentioning the bills, the insults from Wendi and if we don't get our money we will be taking them to Small claims court. I said, tell him we don't want too, we just want to get the money they owe us.

Updates on this later as the day progresses.

Another Altercation

2004-09-15T08:23:53Z

Well Dwayne and I were cooking in the kitchen, when Wendi decides she is going to start cooking...what fun. We were almost done, so we didn't do anything besides get everything ready to eat in our room. (I can't wait to use my dining room table and chairs again.

Dwayne finishes serving up the food and I do a last minute check of the kitchen, remind him to wipe down the stove tomorrow morning and I hover my hand over the two dials for the stove, trying desperately to remember which correct one to turn off (she had mushrooms cooking on the burner behind our food) I turn off the wrong one.

she is watching me the whole time and immediately says " Don't fucking touch my stuff, you cunt." I looked at her and said fuck off she calls me a cunt again and says "don't you swear at me, its my kitchen too, and then I said, "Did it ever occur to your tiny little brain, that it was an accident, she called me a cunt again and I said "thats like the pot calling the kettle black", she says "oooh good comeback" I leave and as I close my door, I do something I tried to resist. I really did, I called her a HO. /sigh She says "Fuck you mother fucking fat cow bitch" I said you really should look in the mirror before calling anyone that. She proceeds to cuss some more, saying the f word every other word (she is not too intelligent) and slams the door.
Dwayne looks at me, and said what happened, I tell him, he takes me over to the bed and hugs me and rubs my back for I am shaking like a leaf. But I can feel him gettng really angry, I said I am sorry, he said don't be, "I am not angry at you, I am angry at that slutty cunt." I don't like that word, but it did make me smile a little bit.

Then she set off the fire alarm...........for twenty minutes.

/sigh I really try not to use the word hate very lightly, but I really do think I truly hate her, and that saddens me.

I would like to know how one goes about getting rid of Acne. I have tried everything, of course it doesn't help that my dear and sweet boyfriend has a goatee on his face and proceeds to be very cuddly when in bed, so I wake up with my face looking disgusting.

I have tried to get him to wash his face more, or shave more frequently, I have tried to sleep with a sheet or pillow between our faces, and try to not care when we have make out sessions. But alas it does not work. I have numerous products for my face and I can and have spend hours trying to clear it up, honey doesn't work, the numerous face masks don't work.

Nothing works, Not the night cream, not the cleansing face wash, not the masks, peel off or wash off. He proceeds to rub his face along my shoulder or small of my back and I break out, he curls his face into my neck and chin, and you can watch it happening, within a day or two I break out, and the problem is, I do love to cuddle. I try to slip a sheet between our faces, he pulls it away in the middle of the night, I sleep on my side so he can't rub against my face and he literally is on top of me in the morning, I don't know what to do, but spending thousands of dollars on products that do nothing is tiring.

That is all for now.
