Adorable babies! Congrats to all of you hatching!

Alrighty, here's the recipe:

2 lb chuck roast (I used a 3 lb)
1/4 cup flour
2 tsp Italian Seasoning
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp freshly ground pepper
2 TBS olive oil
2 large onions, cut into thin wedges
1 parsnip, thickly sliced
2 carrots, thickly sliced
1 celery stalk, thickly sliced
1 cup cabernet sauvignon
1/2 cup beef broth


Trim excess fat from roast and cut into 1 inch cubes. Combine flour, italian seasoning, salt and pepper. Coat meat with flour mixture. Brown meat in batches in hot olive oil, adding more oil if necessary.

Meanwhile in a large slow cooker, add onions, parsnips, and carrots. Top with browned meat. Combine wine and beef broth and pour over meat.

Cover and cook on high for 5 hours. Then cook on low until carrots are tender. (mine took 8 1/2 hours total)

Mary I don't think you should complain re: pit bulls. Could you string some hot wire just around your deck area - since that is one of their favorite spots? Put peanut butter on foil wrapped on the wire .

It's not your fault if they make contact with the hot wire. I am thinking that will "open their eyes," to the fact that wire fence really hurts. Hopefully if you wire fence around elsewhere it will look the same and they'll keep back. I wonder if they would play catch with grenades(don;t mind me just fantasizing). I can look nice and sweet too.

If it doesn't work I see they are selling tazers to everyday people. Sounds good to me. I'm sure I would think they are raccoons or coyotes in the dark and would need to defend myself.

Little Smokies or Vienna sausages on hot wire are irrestible ! Trust me. All the varmits will get a dose of @#*#$ !
