Hi guys...has anyone called the at8?

I did, Jee
Hi Fran!
Good erda....didn't want to call it, so it is good that you did...ha!
Morning all I need help from either my American or Canadian cousins.Last year someone posted a recipe for fresh cranberry sauce. It was very simple and tasted fantastic.Can anyone help. My husband was giving Jillibus the credit for it but he has a soft spot for her !! Thanks
you can still call it, Jee -- people come and go...
hi mari!
nope...it's your glory erda...enjoy!
aw shucks
mari, did you check at babblers anonymous?
mari, your hubby gave me undue credit -- I've never made cranberry sauce. Try flosey?
there's probably a recipe on the bag of fresh cranberries
i made a cranberry grape compote for the second time this year. that's my favorite cranberry sauce
just boil them with a bit of water, sugar to taste, some add orange juice
sounds good Fran
i think the basic recipe is one cup of sugar to a cup of cranberries, orange zest and whole cloves for flavor. i've done that one too.
just pick up a can, lol
goodnight ev1, stopping at 171, might be in tomorrow
flosey, it's really good (the cran-grape) uses less sugar too
night nana!
nite banan
you can also use a food processor and chop up without cooking...one interesting alternative is to put a little wasabi...
can use agave too instead of sugar ..
The packet is American with no instructions!! I'm sure the recipe had apples in it
hi babs!
see you all tomorrow!
night chic!
nite chic
Hi, Mari...first time I've noticed someone on the chat from Scotland...my next door neighbor is from there..
hi, FranMag!
I like putting orange juice, orange zest, a touch of lime and lime zest
hi y'all
found the ca 9 -- stupid word!
mari -- try epicurious.com?
mari, see if this one is close: http://tinyurl.com/2mtpql
i just googled cranberry sauce with apples
hi ruru!
Thanks for all your help I'll make it my mission later. I get up a couple of hours before my brain!!
also try bettycrocker.com... was just there tonight searching for two breakfast casseroles
found the ca 9 absolutely ridiculous
damn -- can't find that ridiculous ca9!
that's been the consensus ruru. :-)
scaf
jilli...more ca7
someone at a health food store made that up
haven't got ca7, dan -- never mind
how about ca6?
(the vegetable one)
i wonder if scrabbler's pets like things that are ca9?
I bet Ping does Fran
horses do
enough for tonight -- will try to finish tomorrow, but expecting the family to arrive mid-afternoon. Have a great Christmas everyone :)
oh shoosh, got it -- the health food thing did it, and it was off the ca6 i had, not a 7

hi guys
hi takuma
morning, TS
howdy
hi, ardilla
morning fellow Babblers
hi, fishbulb!
HI
Good evening everyone
hello, lady
hello, Fish and herin
How is you al
brb need my reading glasses
i'm hungry; making some toast to go with the jam.
great here, its a chilly winters morning - bit worried about my bun though
bun?
sorry - for bun read bunny (rabbit)
aahh - though you might have a bun in the oven!
i thought you might have meant a bunny. lives in the garden, does it?
hehehe... not quite! Though I have a yule log to ice in a moment and some mince pies to bake. Close LOL
she's an indoor bunny - has a hutch in the living room, but free roaming when we're here
i've a house rabbit. he lives upstairs, behinda gote away from the rommie's dog.
i think i finally found a hutch the cats cannot get into.
icon test
aww cute. i love having an indoor rabbit, thankfully the only other pets we have are fish so no troubles for us with hutches etc
bun-bun has been more social lately, which has been nice for me :)
mine too! she's always been quite loving, but i generally have to go to her, but lately she's been coming to me and snuggling up.
yah! i got 100 words without using lickety's!
yay ardilla!
well done, ardilla!
maybe it's the weather, fish.
this is so far he the coldest winter of his life here.
Aloha everyone!
yeah, i was thinking the same. she moulted LOADS this year then became more loving all of a sudden - probably just wanted something warm to sit near - LOL
Aloha Fran!
dc, is that an espresso machine or R2D2? :-)
hi fish!
yes, fran :D
hello Fran
hi dc! hi lynxxx!
fish, i think my icon escaped from your icon.
here's the proper image, fran: http://tinyurl.com/2b2dhg
hi fran
hafa adai, fran
hi ardilla!
your icon will get cold without his buddys to snuggle up to! look after him Fran
:)
dc, that's a great looking machine, even squished. :-)
hi fish
yes, i'm afraid to look at the cost though
hi ardilla :)
yeah, better not to, just imagine it's affordable and wouldn't take up all the counter space in your kitchen.
they're not cheap machines and you have to plumb them in but they are beautiful and well-made. On the downside, just imagine how much polishing it'd take to keep it clean - you probably don't want one really.
keep it clean? well now you've really killed the fantasy fish!
hehe oopsy
I love my coffee too. Isn't is funny how much looks come into the 'right' coffee machine, not just its coffee making ability
actually ,going to their site, they're not that big
probably because it's an appliance that is visible all the time lynxxx
yes, i agree with fran.
ooh, it has bakelite knobs
just like toasters and mixers.
ooh, ur right, they do
now that i see the scale, these are really lovely
and they're only in the 7630 euro range lol
760 euro that should read :">
is that all? might as well get one in each finish.
i do like the brass ones
the little micro model would be nice to have
someday, maybe. being single, i can hold out hope :)
that's true. :-)
and the dollar won't be weak forever. hopefully.
anyone have the U that's not a compulsion?
not yet, fran
okay
nice bingo btw dc!
Just having a drool over the range of those DC - they aren't as expensive as I thought they would be
and a great first move
yes, sort of liake a south american pack animal, fran.
no, but they're still not cheap.
nice bingo?
ooh, thanks dc, i tried that with an i on the end
in our scrabble game
ul 5 --- add south american herbivore: ll***
TY for that DC
thanks babrab
ah, ty, fran. took me a minute to get what you meant :)

i love planet terror!
i love death proof more though
yes, it get very cold here...we already had some snow
friends were in Okinawa in the late 80s. drought was so bad half island had water for 24 hours only.
120 words without lickety's!

Well done Ardilla
a friend of mine is spending the holidays in korea with her family there, she said it's freezing

yep. :-)
Fran my kitty is looked up at the moment due to people over
locked up sorry
why? does she not get along with others?
Stops her being a pest
ah, probably keeps her calm too
Yes and saves me from watching her or having her run out the front door. She has water and food and her litter
okay, found a few more and i'm down to 98 now
time for me to get to bed

They wanted the movie on now they wont shut the feck up
Hi, everyone. I'm a newbie from Australia. My son showed me this site a couple of days ago
hey catie!
Hi Catie and welcome
Hi and thank you. I haven't managed to finish a grid yet, lol
welcome, Catie ... have fun
yeah, well, this one's pretty big
I had high hopes for the last one but I had to go and look for a birthday present for one of my sons
i hate it when that happens
when you have 3 birthdays in December, it makes present buying interesting!!!!
ahh! that's a lot of birthdays
my family's pretty spread out, i'm lucky
finishing is only as important as you make it
a small question before I go back to puzzling over the grid - when the grid changes, is it possible to see the words you missed out?
In Archives but give it a couple of hours
ok, thanks
I have not looked to see if the words are in the archives above
me either - i didn't know you could!
YEp you can
well, they say you learn something new every day - its only 10.30 here and i've learnt something. Time for a hot drink and a rest I think, I'm way ahead of schedule. lol
I went to the gym at 9am this morning back at 11am then bed till 3pm
bdlo?
bdlo?
hello
maybe there's only aussies and kiwis left, lady - I think the northern hemisphere has gone to bed, lol
Probably. Where are you located Catie?
hey - i'm here - its only 11am in England :)
NSw
hi all. what does bdlo mean herin?
NSW - can't even type lol
im in VIC/aus and its 10pm here
my niece lives in Vic - Kinglake - snows!
its been raining heavily all day today here!
are you an aussie mypotential?
yes im in victoria
forget that, can't type, can't read, LOL
lol
I've been clicking on various bits & pieces - is there any hope of babble expert coming up soon - I need all the help I can get
Hi Catie & Mypotential - welcome to you both
lol im not sure, im using my mums account and she only found this site today..so im only new =]
thanks, lynxxx
hi and thank you
HI lili i wasnt paying attention. I meant hello
Its snowing?
hi herin
Lili how are you
Catie...babble Expert is available on via Lickety - who wrote it - he prefers only to send to Pro players (ie paid up). There is no cost but this is an understanding he made with DrG (who owns babble). When you go Pro, contact Lickety - his email address is on his Clue List
Hi Lilliann
thanks, lynxxx - I was intending to pay
fine ty herin, must go in a bit and start packing for trip to france tomorrow, got loads to do but had to babble for a bit....hows you?weather better there now?
hi lynn
Its stil cold.
Catie/Mypotential - I presume you both know about Lickety Babble Clue list? see under Friends of Babble at the bottom left of this page. Another useful tool is Morewords
its cold here too. it was freezing fog this morning
France Lillian - how lovely! holiday? how long are you going?
yes, I have that worked out - VERY handy. Trouble is, I thought I could spell and I'm finding some very strange words
coming back after the new year lyn, my parents live there so spending christmas with them for a change.
i didnt know about that but thank you for telling me
there are always strange words on babble catie, thats where the monkeys come in handy!
Sounds delightful Lillian - have a great time
I usually finished exams early so I'd write antidisestablishmentarianism at the top of a sheet of paper and amuse myself thinking up words
i will, thank you lyn. you have a good christmas too.
Sounds like this game will be right up your alley then Catie. Very addictive though!
I know, lol - was supposed to be buying birthday presents and couldn't leave the computer
i didn't play yesterday and had withdrawal symptoms....i shouldn't be playing now either as i've got too much to do, but can't help myself.
lol, lili, my husband works night shift so he isn't here to say "haven't you wrapped those presents yet?"
my husband and daughter always say they are babble widowed.....and no point talking to me because i'm in babbleland!!
our christmas presents are all wrapped and under the tree - a first for our family!
i've only got a few more left to wrap but run out of paper and cellotape, so waiting for the bairn and her grandad to get me some more, so good excuse to babble for a bit!
my hubby hasn't even cut the tree yet! we grow our own
oh that would be good, but messy!
All chrisy stuff done here
anyway i have to go, my mum wants the computer back.
night all
ahh, thats nice catie....so you might have one for xmas or not!!
bye mypotential
nice talking to you mypotential - I hope you have a lovely Christmas
nite mypotential
you too
Nite My have a nice chrissy stay safe
the only problem I have with real trees is the spiders
We don't have a tree here
are they normal spiders catie or horrible ones?
ginormous - is that a babble word? big bush spiders. Mind you, I run from anything that even remotely looks like a spider
i've just put half our tree up this year as not beening here i couldn't be bothered to put the whole one up, and i only put it up for the bairn
do they bite catie?
being here even
I've never found out - the poor things bite the dust if they're found in the house. I save lizards, frogs, beetles and sundry other beasties but can't handle spiders
i don't mind little ones but not tarantulas, but saying that we don't have them here unless they're pets...and i wouldn't want one....how can you cuddle a tarantula....i'll stick to cats!
one of my sons had a pet redback, I prefer cats too
Tarantulas have a soft exo skeloton and explode when dropped
Catie they are NOT pets
yuck!!!
oh, nice herin!
That is the sad thing about trantulars they don't live if dropped. They make good pets though
lady, you'd have to meet my son to know that he does quite bizarre things - like catching flies to feed the darn thing!
but i wouldn't get that close to find out....i suppose they could be a good burglar deterrent!
ewww. How old is he?
he
he's in his thirties now but that was quite some time back - he was living in Canberra in a flat and couldn't have 'pets', lol
Ok
110 words down, but now i definately have to go and do things. hopefully see you all tonight. take care and if i don't, have a lovely christmas and nice to have met you catie.
bye for now Lillian
bye lyn
Later Lilli
bye, liliann, nice to have met you, too. I hope Santa is good to you
bye herin
i got a cd catie which i had to wrap myself...who says romance is dead!
lol, my mum made me buy my present from her and then she told me I had to wrap it!
why do they do that, we might aswell have it before christmas...i'm not bothered about presents, i just like to watch the bairn open hers.
anyway, i'm chatting again...going now...bye...{poof}
I think it's time I called it quits - it's nearly 11pm and one of my cats woke me at 4am so my brain is feeling a bit scrambled. Goodnight everyone and thank you all so much for the welcome. Merry Christmas
gn catie
bye herin
bye lilliann
Good Morning ... how's the grid?
hi merk
the grid's okay...150 down
I dreamt that I woke up to a 600+ word grid!
Good morning by the way
good evening phandmd
good evening to you
only 327 words...
Yes, I am glad for that
hi, all...lovely grid today!
Hello all---phandmd----is that dream considered a nightmare or a delight?
Good morning Babblers....no way I'll do 327 today...too much to do.
Hi Angle, Scrab! I myself am not a huge fan of big grids so that would be a nightmare
chiley--how is the baby?
Scrabbler, all is well with the little one. Dr. told her to switch to barley
I prefer 150-170.
didn't give her anything to put on the rash or anything.
She can continue to use the Aveeno.
yes
I prefer 120 and less. I love the tiny ones
Is the rash a diaper rash? When my babies got that, I used Balmex and loved it.
Then you can finish and get on with your day, right, phandmd?
He didn't seem concerned at all
no phan, it is on his face...looks like pimples
Day car staffs and school nurses just always freak out about any rash
oh, I see. Doesn't that usually resolve on its own?
Oh, yes that is true and they really should
they were concerned because he had been crying all afternoon, which is VERY unusual for him.
hi angelsong. scrabbler, & chiley!
scrabbler, I had posted and answer to the finish and get on with it comment but it was in the expert box so didn't get posted. I love this add box but forget that I need more than one word to get it in chat.
my answer was: exactamundo!
Hi ardilla
Yes, that happens to me too, phandmd. Another things that happens is that if you type too fast, as ma4 ma5, before word entry is done, it goes to the chat and you go to the penalty box.
Hello i had my lap top 'borrowed;
Oh, I haven't had that happen to me yet
evening everyone!
Is it OK, Lady?
Hi MRP
ello to you Mr. P
hello everyone!
it is almost sunday morning, and lickety is taking the dog for a walk!
hi annie, phan and scrab!
YEs someone needed the internet
How are you?
What is your weather like, mrp? We had sleet overnight so now the snow has a layer of ice on top.
we have humidity ontop of wet weather, so we have damp! lovely smell really :))
I like that smell, especially in the woods.
mrp, are you staying on in your house?
yes annie, for now we are... will move in about 4-6 weeks
Oh, I thought you and lickety had decided not to move and keep the house
Hi Annie
well, we can't really stay now... the contract is set and we have to go... I want to stay, I really do, but it isn't viable
Hi Scrabbler, how are the bunnies?
Oh, mrp...I see...your next house will be just as lovely
Callie is hopping all over after finishing her salad. And Sebastian was jumping all over me in bed because I slept in a bit later than he wanted. He was ready for his morning salad at 6:30 and I wanted to stay in the nest a bit longer.
The other 2 bunnies are quieter.
Sebastian is a feisty fella
He is special--very sociable.
BBS--going to check e-mail.
ok i will be right back im going to move upstairs

This board is drives me nuts.. one of the drawbacks of being bi-lingual! I'm seeing all kinds of words that just aren't words in English.
half of them would probably work, sarah
I've found that a few of them actually do!
same here, sarah--lots of french words :-)
Lots of Gaelic words too.

lHi Uni
No no, Nanette, LOL, it was funny wasn't it. Except for the part of me having to go to work. It ended up being a crappy day at the office.
wb uni
Hi Uni
hi there Uni, Flosey et al...
hi Luc
A shooting....?
another french word that works !! - si 5/12
sorry about it being a crappy day but at least you started out with a laugh before hand
I'm always surprised at the "common" French words (here, at least) that don't work!
i agree, uni
yep...
I placed some words in the chat by accident (typing too fast for Lickety Add) and I asked someone to shoot me, the advantage being that I could call the office and report that I would not be in due to being shot.
Hello all - back and have not even got to halfway and am quite stuck - will need list quite soon i think
hi ursh
hi, ursh.
hi ursh
I have learned a lot of French from Babble.

Hey Ursh

Kids arrived for christmas at the coast and 10 month old grandaughter decided that 4.30am was a good time to start everyone's day - so feeling quite weary
Look at all those "AM" words and I have none. Time to turn my eyes on.
I am missing several of those myself, looking for the first am7
Time for everyone to nap, huh, Ursh? What time is it there?
am7 = not pro but am**teur + british political party
TY, Montreal---a new word for me.

Great nono, good for you
nice video today.... Happy babbling everyone
it still schoks me how much my elder cat likes Tofurkey.
shocks even
can someone explain to me the video thing?
if you use babble expert, from LIckety Split, you get a video on completeing the grid, lady.
how?... I use lickety's clues by clicking on the link in babble...
on that page, lady, there is an email address where you can requset Babble Expert, a program he wrote that integrates his list and babble, with a single interface that enters words in both at the same time.
ohhh
ga6/27 anyone?
I have just looked properly at that site. I do use it for a list occasionally but didnt realise how much htere was to it. Does he have a life or spend it all on babble!!!
he doesn't play, just does that. His wife and son play, mrpresident and skeleton, respectively.
that's the ga I'm missing jane
wow that is dedication
more into playing the ga*e
Mr.P explained to me once that he created it because he was tired of her working on babble all day long.
lol, that rather makes sense uni :D
lol
thanks dc
mags
oops
hi, kristin! there are marzipan-chocolate croissants in the penalty box :)

Thank you Smaller...obvious words I glance right over

lasso
dont know if its the first, but if something lifts sometihng it could be called a ri***
thanks une,
yw :-)
that's one of the words I miss every time!
me too usually! :-)
I know I've been babbling too long when the entire clue is "lasso" and I get the word right away! (That ri is the one I NEVER remember)
LOL!!!
i know i havent been here long enough as im scratching my head
i haven't been babbling too long and neither have you , uniq, I'm gonna start getting ready for Christmas any minute now....

I am also watching Ratatouille
haven't seen it yet--good?
i so despise the food, peri, that i've not seen it yet.
ar5/12 please, just before backside
Pirates of the Caribean: At world's End, here....SO good.
you despised ratatouile???!!!
i despiset he food ratatouille. therefore, have not seen the movie.
ar -- 5 smell emanating from the kitchen
i really liked the movie ratatouille
ar5 weapons
I like ratatouille and have made it several times
thanks BR
I didn't like the movie, never had the food.
i plan to see it at some point, i hear it's quite a nice film.
it is a cute movie
I would much rather watch Monsters Inc again than Ratatouille...I really disliked Ratatouille though
uni, if you like eggplant and tomatoes and onion and olive oil . . . . you'll like it!!
didn't like Monsters Inc
loved Monsters Inc--what didn't you like about Ratatouille?
it is easy to make
oohhh, and add some black olives . . .
Tomatoes are awful, and I've never had eggplant...but onion and oliveoil is yum, lol. I just didn't like the characters, the storyline, the comedy, anything about it really. I also hated Finding Nemo....nearly every other Disney/Pixar kids movie, I do like
yes, rattatouille is easy to make, but it does not taste good in my experience.
And capers, don't forget capers...
I loved Finding Nemo
capers make me sicke. bluch.
Finding Nemo?? Uni, I'm worried about you! LOL
black olives mmm
I put them in my chili and lasagne too . . .
I know! Two of the most loved movies released in the last five years, and I find them dreadfully bad. It surprises even me!
I love any kind of olive
what about Madagascar, Uni--did you like that?
didn't like the Incredibles either
Peri, my daughter and I went in a market in NYC once and went nuts--they let you sample ALL the olives!
Oh. Umm, three of the most widely loved movies....
they had bins and bins!
Wow I would be in heaven, where in NYC, do you remember Une
Uni LOL
I love the Incredibles!!
Madagascar even had a really funny bit all through the credits :-)
Uni and Une can be confusing :-)
and Cars...Cars was awesome
it was on W. 23rd--I think it was Healthy Chelsea or nearby
I ould be Niq, if necessary
Or something like that, I'll tr to pay attention, lol
(between 8th and 9th Avs)
there's a lovely Spanish restaurant called Quixote's, or Don Quixote, on W 23rd, next to the Chelsea Hoteal.
the stratton story was a good one
right! that's just down from where my daughter and I stay (at the Leo House)
Hi, my name is Jan and I'm a Babble addict. Starts innocently enough. Turn on the computer at the flip and see 327 words--yikes, no way I finish the grid so I won't bother. Weeelll, maybe just a little Babbling. Types 85 words and off to bed. Next morning, remembers grid is too big, has Christmas shopping to do. Sneaks onto Babble anyway. Just for a minute. Realizes after a while that there are only 60 to go now. Retreats to Lickety. Tells husband that breakfast will be brunch instead. Finishes grid. Immediately starts wondering if tomorrow's grid will be a good one. Yeah, total addict...
thanks Une and dc
lol jan, good for you
you've taken the first step jan, admitting you have a problem. Now would you please clue me the last ar5 before i go over the edge? lol
oh, if you go there regularly une, you might likethese restaraunt recs from a friend of mine: http://tinyurl.com/3c8l6b
Pleasant smell
nm go tit
which one, jane?
oops.... i mean nm, got it!
go tit indeed...
haven't finished watching Rata... yet, have it on pause, will let you know what I really think when it is over
dc, don't see it . . .
have not been to NYC in many years, keep saying I am going but never go. have friends there
do i have to create an account first?
I'm going January 3!!
sorry about that, now you will, une. i made it public.
ok, i'll try again :-)
I'm going to NYC on New Year's Day for the first time in years. ANy restaurant recs?
see the tinyurl i posted just below, jan
the chilean place in really fabulous.
Saw it just as I posted. Thanks dcseain!
La Bonne Soupe--we go there every time! 48 W. 55 th (between 5 th & 6 th Aves.), 586-7650, www.labonnesoupe.com
Ack! Look at all the ca words
still have 116 to find
back to watch the movie, bbs
woo! down to 20 As :D
the sc6 that follows the neckwear?
thanks, DC, was able to get in!
alt spelling of sc5 (frightening)
Marc has great taste in food..
thanks!
of full of sc4
jare, covered in sc4/5s.
did you ever go to the Gingerbread Man near Lincoln Center? It's gone now but that was where I was just inches away from Al Pacino--we locked eyes -- LOL
*Ginger Man*
no une, but Marc used to like it. he's the author of the restaurant recs; not sure if inamed him in the post.
and La Metairie down in the Village . . . now it's VERY expensive and big but many years ago when my mom and I went, there were only 3 tables and a big dog slept under ours while we ate--delicious and absolutely enchanting!
how very lovely-sounding, une :D
has anyone done that thing where you eat in the dark?
no harp, though i find the concept intriguing. OTOH, it'd be hard to find a vegetarian menu for such.
didn't I see that on CSI? :-D
yup
are you a vegetarian, dc? my daughter is too--i'm transporting the veggie assortment to Xmas dinner :-)
yes, i'm an ovo-lacto vegetarian, have been for almost 17 years.
her boyfriend gets very excited when he comes to visit--my brother always brings MEAT
at El Quixote's the veggie paella c/frijoles negros is excellent.
ooohhh, good to know! thanks
and your friend's recommendation of a non-greasy tempura place sounds good too
they have a good selection. And so does Pomaire, lovely, loveyl place that. Funny thing to me was at Pomaire, they didn't speak English to me when they learned i spoke Spanish, while at El Quixote they only spoke English to me, though i ordered in Spanish. :D
i remember my first paella in southern France--my first experience with heads, antennae, etc. Lol
I'm sure Isa has more than tempura - i'm not a big fan of Japanese food, which i think is why he mentioned the tempura.
that's one thing i really like about La Bonne Soupe--they speak French to me if I start out speaking it . . .
hee! i got to eat praws galore when i dine w/expats in Spain - the heads scared them. OTOH, i never had to eat steak, of which i was never fond :D
prawns galore, rather.
hii.
hey Alice :-)
hello, alice
is this hard 2day?
im new 2 this
it IS unusually large today, Alice
yes, alice, today's was quite challenging. I just finished. took me about 6 hours total.

lol
Hi Lori. I s'pose I might as well welcome you to the grid
Since you're in our living room Uni, that's mighty nice of ya!
*shudders* I remember the 456 word monster.
***still wondering what brain space is***
sillies, there's been over 500...
ah - babble is onto me, i cannot just type random bunch of letters and hope for the best!
The 500 + grid was fun.
I've only completed one 500+. It was beautiful, and sometime between august and october
LOL bsfog
i didn't care for that big of a board
Whats everyones plans tonight/today?
babbling, and decorating, gift wrapping avoidance. You know, the usual.... :)
first ca 6/24?
i unfortunately still have to go shopping at some point today
Oh yeah, cuz you do so much gift wrapping. I have much to do in that department!
i started yesterday at 11 am, finished and home by 10:30 pm. Wheeeee!
Oh, no, angelina! Hope you have your helmet and elbow pads.
going to need them that's for sure lol
***elbows number #1, reaches for lappy plug***
first ca 6, 24 is like the second ca but different vowel at the end
G'd luck angelina, it's a zoo.
thanks
ty angel
you're welcome
Just monkied the vegetable ca9. *rolls eyes*
lol
i chuckled at the ca9 too
Oh great. Is it that bad? Please say someone was joking that it Really took dc 6 hrs...
dc is a robot
I know, that's my point. *I* am hardly a word Mach-ine.
fl 7?
ok. guess I should dive in. Hi everybody. cya soon (I hope)
hi moonwoof
my cat is in the grid, my cat is in the grid
fl7 is more of the fl4/8 nan
Good luck, moonwoof!
oh. Oops. Hiya everybody. (ty. I So hope it's no that bad.)
ty fish -- silly word!
tis indeed - a few of them are today!
how do you mean more?
bfsog - if you are more nasty you are na.......
i see, this means i have the wrong fl4,8 lol
wait.. no i dont, slaps self
hahahah
a
this morning i jumped about ten feet in the air, i was in bed and thought a spider was running up my leg. i lifted the duvet but didnt see anything. i hope it wasnt my xover, it was a quick mover
:s yuck yuck yuck!!!!
Nah. It was probably just a scorpion, bfsog.
LOL
where do you live bfsog?
i know, i might sleep in my car instead lol, picture the headline "spider sleeps soundly while man roughs it in fiesta"
scotland
Okay, so probably not a scorpion.
More likely gnomes.
a haggis maybe?
i wouldnt know what it looks like, im from south of the border
hi, again!!!
BBL. Best to take this puzzle in small doses. Down to 194.
hi pam
I somehow Really doubt a haggis would feel at All like a delicate little spider...
hi, angel
cya judi, hiya pam
bye judi, see ya later
later, judi
a haggis dressed as a christmas angel might? all that tinsel etc
tis not the season for spiders though in the UK - I haven't seen one for at least a month (thankfully)
well. I doubt that, too. Tinsel just sticks right to haggis. It doen't feel at all furry on haggis. It's bizarre.
a room mate has a hamster who is prone to breakouts...
Uh. And I'm not sure I have time for that whole story LOL
there ya go, bf. Go with hamster.
lol
Ah, my wildly eccentric youth. They smash really well, tho, when you drop 'em 3 stories. Just like really meaty waterballoons.
dare I ask how haggis even made it to the chat?
i wonder if klingons would like haggis.
How does anything make it to chat, in geekland? And a comment. Let Anyone read it. Apply "logic". Go to town.
LOLOL, moon....
Well, Hursy, they didn't at that particular Sci-fi con. But perhaps there are other more Cultural Klingons out there.
i just wonder since Kruge is in the grid.
One guys face twisted so bad I was afraid his Klingon forehead would fall off.
Is that Klingon for something?
Like Haggis?
Kruge was the captain who killed Kirk's son, David.
Oh, nice. Speaking of geeky... *I* am So bad with names. Way to whip that one out hursh
'snothin
My dad would adore you. He's a huge trekky.
My geek runs more toward Dr. Who and cartoons. But the acorn don't fall far.
HI all, back to find my last 116
wb peri
wb peri
hi, again, peri!!!!
finished watching Ratatouille, cute but the idea of having rats in the kitchen, eww
HI hurshy, your sweet cat is in the grid
lol
just had a delicious lunch, homemade hot and sour soup and grilled cheese made with Dubliner cheese, a nice Irish Cheddar
will never eat that processed cheese again
Very nice, peri. Recently, I bought a gouda-like cheese with caraway seeds... it was on sale...
there are so many cheeses to choose from. There is a cheese shop down town that will give you samples
cheeses i bought today for the holidays, have never tried some of these, kerrugold-blarney castle cheese
its a kind of gouda
belgioioso asiago cheese
Whole Foods does samples, too, that's how I got this one. There are some nice cheese stores here, too...
should be gouda then :-)
yummmy
rosenborg danish blue cheese
lol
I bought the cheese at Trader Joe's, the salesperson was very helpful
couldn't resist crpw
don't like blue cheese tho
i know, it is gouda, fontinella cheddar
I love Brie
and last but not least, imported from england Keen's farm cheddar
i hate blue cheese, its for the other half that lives here
LOVE blue cheese...
a little wine, good cheese and fresh bread and you have a party
sounds like fun crp, when is the party
i am have one right now, gearing up for all the cooking i have to do monday and tuesday
its going to take a couple glasses of wine to get through this grid
Dern it. How can Gamara Not be a word?!? He only like THE best godzilla foe of ALL time! {{grrr}}
while we are on the subject of food can anyone give me the recipe for cranberry sauce that was posted in the grid last year - it was delicious (I'm sure theres apples in the recipe)

bonjour stid - comment ça va ?
Hi Stid!

tres bien, merci! :-)
2nd ag 5/14?
bonjour, stid!!
my mom still has one of those--aarrggh!
hi, Stid, what would be a coffee icon? I am investigating. May put up my mug again.
si7?
hey peri! :-) made blueberry muffins for breakfast ... didn't turn out so well, but the deviled eggs were fine.
(my daughter thinks it's cool and retro LOL)
a + opening in a fence that you walk through
ag5 = a gemstone
What montie... Doesnt anyone call it the "great white north" anymore?? =P
A coffee icon? is that the theme for today?
si 7 builds on the si 5,16
si7 extend si5--ends in "consumed food"
thanks, go figure!
Wow... I didn't think Anyone else had those phones anymore besides us.
hi hursheroo!
nobody uses it--it just sits there on the kitchen wall :-)
i know moon, just kidding - we had minus 20 C temps this week, a snow storm last sunday/monday, more snow wednesday and thursday ... and nowm it's 0 degrees C !! with a forecast of + 7 tomorrow !!- so yes, it is white...but for how long ?
scar
I have to tell ya, tho. When the power goes out, and your cordless won't work... Dont call the power company on one of those... They've automated their calling system =P
I prefered the old type phones... actually I wish all of life were so slow (though I enjoy the online chatting). People are so "rush-rush" these days.
thansk wasgij5! LOL
yeah yeah yeah
Ok, good montie. I was afraid the great comedic talents of the McKenzies might have been lost already.
how far back do you want to go, stid? when I was in grade school we had a party line and our phone no. was 26!
I have heard of party lines, but never experienced one... is it anything like the communal bathroom in the college dorm?
pretty much LOL
yes, stid, but even more "coed".
ick. then let's not go back that far, Une and moon!
Oh wait. LOL
(that rhymed, btw) *gri*
never moon... although they exagerated SLIGHTLY on some of our tr 5/10 s...
so clever!
*grin* I think my figners are confuzzled again today
47 left, time for another break
later peri! a bientot!
later peri !
only slightly isn't bad... At least people don't say "Oh yeah... I saw Fargo" when ya tell em where you live.
cya peri.

"triage" just isn't going to work today, is it?
from there to here, from here to there, funny words are everywhere
nope. Phantom ER

Montie. Get outta my head. Seriously.
cya 65

I had asked for RO 8 clue and then had to leave; can I get a new clue?
okay...hey okay...
Bye Guys
bye DR !
phan, old phone dials
LOL here we go again... phand it's the old type of phones with circular dial... plural form only
bye DR
thank you
i'm done
congrats, hursh!!
YAY hurshy!!!!!
well done hursh ! - you see, i still have 25 to go !! - why race against you ??
oh, sorry, i didn't know you were listless
you know, stid... It's kinda eerie when I look at your name, sometimes.. If it's any consolation, every time I see your nick I see "stidmata"
congrats hursh
when i was a kid, my daddy had a moonwoof in his wittle bwue pwymoth howizon
i'm sometime listless, it's true... but i'm now using lickety's...
I dont know How an m turns into a t, but I blame my catholic upbringing.
sorry didn't realise I had done that
oh... um... well, you're obviously just enjoying the chat then
blame FMitch, it's easier !
several people do, montreal... not sure if that means they think I'm a saint... or if I am just that disturbing! LOL
LOL omg. His horizon was blue, too, huh?
it's okay wasgij5 :-)
did you have a howizon? with a moonwoof?
what sort of wolfhound is that?
and was it bwue?
yes, am enjoying the chat and everybody in it...
I think all horizons came in that wierd blue...
no, he had two, the first one was brown and the second was blue.
lol stid...
I did. Right before i had it's bizarre twin the Dodge Omni.
it was a nice little car.
Oh, well, that ruined that theory.... And it kinda was. It was just hard to go from a 67 Ford LTD (think land yacht) to this little bitty thing.
lol
my dad had had... a plymouth charger, i think, before that?
See? It's like a charge, but like, twice as wide.
the charger was his first car
I've never been a large person, but it was So hard to go from a car I could live in to something I could reach across.
and the blue horizon was his first brand-new car. i remember when we got it, how i loved that new car smell
well what did you do it for then?
ooh! I am over 100 already! I think I will go bask in the accomplishment, and come back to play a little more later. {{{everyone}}} See you soon!
We took that LTD to "buck a car night" at the Drive in theatre (when those still existed) and we fit 17 wriggling and cheap ass teens in that thing.
here is my coffee mug to go with the theme today
cya mama
my daddy LOVED drive ins!
fireworks at last
I did it Hershy, because the LTD was totaled, and I needed better gas milage.
LOL inge! you just took that pic, didn't you? (clever inge) :-) bis spater!
congrats girl
ah
YAY cool girl!
thanyou
wtg coolgirl !
does anyone need help before i go
tx cool...but i'm almost done...

Cya inge. you have a good night too.

Hi, Lucien, moon and all... good night, cool girl! :-)

How go your holidays?
How are you doing on this surprise grid today, moon? I was so delighted to see a big one!!
My holidays are slowing down now to kitchen duty, which I love... still a pile of special cookies to decorate, but this is a great breather!
bonsoir Scarlet !
{{{Luc}}} My favorite Canadian!
Well, it's kinda my first "big one". I think since I started the biggest was 260 a week and a half ago? But ok, actually.
do you know another one scarlet ??
I think the bigger ones are a little easier, moon.
LOl, Luc... my grandmother was a Canuck... so, does that count? The other grandmother was staight from Finland... yes, carleecat, whom I love dearly, is Canadian!! :-)
HI, back to finish. 47 left
A couple of people had me worried tho. Sprite was talking about this 600 word thing, and all *I* could think was... omg. I wont get ANY work done lol
aha, I spy my Crimson friend :-)
Peri-kins!! {{{Hugs}}}
well then, i feel flatterred ! - (((scarlet)))
wb Peri. Good luck.
Such a sweet person, you are, Luc! Into the grid... I have 88 left, and this has been a blast... I run in, do about 55 words, back to the kitchen, and here I am again... like a boomerang... LOL
down to my last word scarlet...
Hmm. Lizard boomerang. Interesting visual ty lol

Oh, wow, Luc... have you been working it long?
{{big brat}}
well hey, thanks hey...

That poor anole was my grid clue two Fridays ago, and I havent' had time to change it! LOL, moon... be nice to Lucien, or I'll have to throw a frozen salmon at you...
{{{big bragging brat}}}
Yeah, right, Luc...you're good, but that is beyond my belief right now... LOL
lolol moon and scarlet...
But he's my friend, moon... we must love our friends, warts and all... LOL
warts...WARTS ???
Okay... character flaws...
I empathize scarlet... but I'll go ahead and bust him any way. He was here before I was and while chatting has been here at Least 2 hours.
A mind wart...
WHAT ?????
and warts.
Well... You have been. =P
Lukie, you are on you own... sees as though moon has issues that I can not help with right now... so, buckle your chest protector and arm yourself with your golden snow shovel!!!
truly, over 3 hours... and STILL 1 word to find...
*seems*
Hope you didnt have any appointments LOL
Maybe it's one I have found, Luc... any requests?
went out a few times today; did the dishes; shovelling was yesterday...
oh no. I'm sure it doesnt Just seem that way. I'm sure I must around here somewhere...
tx scarlet - all i know now is that's an A word...
Lemme look in a drawer... those dern issues can be shifty when they go into hiding.
issues ? hey, i have no issues with moon, hey !
omg. ok, I found one. I couldnt think of how to spell the card reader t word. Get out your fish scarlet.
I'd say THAT's an issue
*Loading up with tiny krill*...
just kidding...lol...
Oh, montie, I think she was saying I just plain have issues. LOL
LOL... this is so "out of body" feeling right now...
I'm sittin here Staring at the grid beating my head and I Could Not Remember how to spell a word I hear about Way Too Often. {{groan}}
327 and fireworks !
I must need food. brb
It happesn to the best of us, moon.

Woohoo Peri!
well you have been cooking, baking etc, Scarlet
hi all. is the chat back-log not working today?
Hi folks..don't think I'm touching this one!
uhm, seems fine here robo
Yes, most of the day, peri... it's the decorating that takes the time... but, my darling grandchildren will love it...
sorry - having to go so soon after finishing... but life, sometimes, interferes with babble, a situation that should not be tolerated any longer !!
lucky grandchildren
**takes a bow** Scarlet is decorating
aww. cya Montie
ok, now it loaded
HiBye Montreal
I love home made cookies
Hi, Krista... how are you today? I thought of you last night, and how you are dealing with such unhappy news... I am decorating the cookies, Krista... the house is finished. Hasta Luego, Luc... see you soon, friend.!
bye all (hi krista) - take care (((scarlet))) my best american friend !
Yes, it is all Krista's fault.... {{Luc}}
Krista hi hugs please take care
Oh thanks, Scarlet. My friend is doing very well, considering what happened. I know she is still in a state of shock. My son has pneumonia now. Fun all around!
nice people here again ALL day - happy babbling ! "POOF"
Shoot Krista how old?
Oh, dear, Krista... {{{Hugs for you}}}... Sometimes the plate gets a little too full... I am sorry, dear.
He's six. We spent all day in urgent care. I could see the spots on the x-ray as soon as it came up on the screen. There's no way I can get everything done now for the family Xmas party (at my house), but it's really ok. It will be nice to have a quiet Christmas.
anyone got a clue for ar6/21?
the first one?
Krista its a party get everyone to help you. i am so sorry my dear im not next door to you.
brb
never mind, found it
Hi, Robo... no help here!
Can you have some help with the party making things, Krista, or are you going to cancel altogether?
the first one *I8 have is = large groups of infantry
I've had lots of offers of help, but I'm just not up to it. I'll still see everyone anyway..I think we'll do it on New Year's Eve, instead.
I despise New Year's Eve, so maybe it will make it tolerable. Hey - guess I am a Scrooge about something after all, Scarlet! ;)
I must make us some dinner now... best of Babbling to all... {{peri and Krista}}} You are all wonderful friends... best wishes to all, Krista, and I hope your little guy recovers quickly! No worries, Krista, I hate New Year as much as I hate Christmas... I am absolutely the Grinchiest person I know.... except for the grandchildren and I am a big moosh-ball!
10 left, all CA words
I hate Xmas and New Years too
Thanks, Scarlet. Nice to see you! I bet you're the best Grandma ever. :)
Cat. California. Calabash. Shall I go on, peri... LOL... don't throw that trout at me....*duck*
Awwww. Krista... such a sweet thing to say... they like me... I am a hippy grandmother, so that makes it better... LOL
That's nice to hear, Peri, in a miser-loves-company kind of way. :) Christmas is great to me, but New Year's...eeeesh. I used to go to bed before midnight, but can't get away with it now that I have kids. :)
misery, not miser, thank you
LOL
ea6/24?
You aren't baking any, uh, brownies are you, Scarlet???
The last "special" brownie I had was in 1969, as we were walking on the moon, Krista... LOL.. no more, I got old!
Just checking. :) Enjoy your dinner.
Our astronauts, that is... I personally preferred Pluto... LOL
in '69 I was 6 years old... never have had a special brownie
LadyNatts... you were too young for the hippy revolution... (and probably better off) LOL. *poof*
I was two! But I remember the moon walk. I thought you were being metaphoric there, Scarlet.
LOL.... *poof for real*
Are you done the grid, Lady?
not even close, Krista. 76 left
I'm leaving this one alone! I'll leave you all to it. Have a great evening!

yw Robo

still 76 left
what do you need lady?
2 ca5's... one right after what buggs bunny would consider a good flavor

wow... who'd o' thunk it?
I just finished; who needs clues?
Yea for you Phan! Congrats

* the ar9? please
runs off the 7 before it.
do you have the 7 above it
yes
But I couldnt even find it in the dictionary.
am 7/40?
Hi everyone
add an ending to make it an adjective
Hi Ruru!
am + vowel + to 4/6
don't have the 7 :(
hi all
ty for the ar9 Phan
Hi Joanne
hi dr
hi ruru, hi joanne
and the last am for me the am 732
ar 7 = an appendage + vowel + sounds like frustrated noise
i been in and out mall shopping and gift wrapping doggies are excited lol
french for friend + ra 4/4
Hi I am back i was making pancakes
wait it's the ar9
the ar7 for me seems like someone you idolize without the one consonant
got both sevens thank you for the clues
bought hubby a gun..but went the smart route and only plastic pellets go in it hehe
*raises eyebrows*
Hello

Wow there is 6 blokes here. This is too early
I am missing the la5 and 6 just after the animal
what do you mean, herin?
Is that the La big Nats?
add a vowel and then add another one at the end
not the big one, before that
(making a latin plural and then you can make a reg plural)
SOrry thats all i have
hello again all!
Hi Stid

I'm missing the la5 before the big one
horror movies are sc8
***GASP*** Coming up for air. This grid is a marathon. I will dream about words tonight.
that's not how that is spelled!
hi Scrabbler!
double the consonant, robo
scrabs...how u doing
yeah, i found it. ty lady
I always dream words, scrabb
Hi Stid. How are you? Merry Christmas to you and the entire family. I never got cards out this year.
l + form of to be + plural
I'm still missing the la5 before the big one
Scrabbler how are you
just did it ladyN
Hi carlee. How are you and Kevin and the kids?
we're ok... i just have a headache
Colder than you, lady. Would you like some snow?
thanks Scrabbler, I don't do Christmas cards... New Years (sometimes it falls in June for our family, LOL) works better for me
I had a headache Thurs-yesterday.
carlee, I wish I could help with your headache...
its ok stid... it will go...
finally got it, phan, thanks again
si5/12?
re6 clue please?
I think the dry air inside this time of year is really bad for headaches. I just refilled my migraine prescription, had to manage the last one without and it wasn't fun.
re + si 4/4
I can relate Stid!
sometimes just staying good and hydrated can help with headaches
ugh... at least this is not a migraine....
Gee, wasn't that easy, phandmd? I will dodge the fish coming my way.
that's true, phand... I could be more diligent about that.
I tend to get stress/tension/excitement headaches...this is my first day in a week with no headache and I am very pleased.
si5/12 = last letters of French mister
*sneaks up behind scrabbler and slips fish down back of shirt*
Scrabbler I had a problem with that word too
good for you Uniquity! stay calm... *sends soothing quiet vibes*
Snowball attack Stid
Yikes, that fish is freezing! And smelly!
AR 5/16 after the god of war please?
* lobs tinsel bomb at uni*
*dodges snowballs and runs away cackling*
Good for you, Uniquity--excited about Santa's impending visit?
Uniq take care
re5/16 please?
Lol...Holidays have always ramped me up. When I was very little I would get extremely sick, vomiting, etc. Now, I just get headaches. Progress, they say!
verbal fight(s)
My tension comes out as headaches too.
I also have my post-exams cold that is still not gone and making me weaker
re 5/16 short for normal + not pa
wow phand, another great clue
ah.... i remember those days uni... flu every xmas right after exams
then add british thank you for 7
TY, ph, and is re7 related?
TY, ph, you read my mind!
Thanks clues are starting to sink in
yw
I have just decided I shall not finish today... *relaxes shoulders* even with the list it is too much.
I am working in reverse alphabetical order--up to ra's and bunnies need their salads
Exactly Carlee. Last spring was my very first (and very bad) case of strep throat...I let it go way too long though, after 3-4 days of intense fever and migraine. I was a sick kid, but used my usual technique of "it'll go away". I was wrong.
I hope to finish but i don't know as we have guests
Stid, you are the voice of reason & sanity today!!
te8/9 combo?
and I would always read a brain dead jackie collins'esque type book over the break
Robo, start with prefix for four, that is the te5.
one of 4 rulers and plural
robo... makes me think of the mamas and papas that RULE
Then add ar4 and ar5
welcome to my world stid... I have only found 76 words... and rather lob tinsel bombs
well once a year scrabbler it doesn't hurt my image too much...
think 4 and the ar4 of your foot
OK, bunnies deserve salads now. BBL
**Drapes garland around carlee's shoulders and sprinkles tinsel in her hair**
thanks salad, i have that
I am almost to halfway... I think I will get there and then go
er, scrabbler
later scrabbler!
Bye Scrabs
bye scrabs
am6/21.. the first one
I hate to leave with 54 left, but have hubby's Xmas party tonite, and I have to iron his shirt as well as make myself pretty
Sorry, i need the ar6/21 the first one
without high/good standards
Ha. got the CA 9...
you go to war with ar*
Yea Stid!
Natts have fun
later LadyNatts -- well done on getting so close (but making yourself look pretty won't take so long, you know...)
Bye Lady
lol.. if I looked as nice as my dog, it wouldn't!
bye, bye
bye for now... *poofs*
Thanks, phan
*phew* i am down to my last 8 words
go robo go!!!!
go robo
Go Robo
* lobs tinsel at stid *..mussing up her hair
*sprinkles glitter in carlee's direction and follows with a garland of sequins*
ar7/40?
Glitter attacks Carlee
appendage + vowel + sounds like frustrated sound
the ar 7 means a person who makes armor... I think
add 2 ltrs to the 7 to make it an adjective
not quite, a person who bears weapons (and the shield)
hehehe..glitter reminds me of a funny "female" joke
I think I know that joke, Carlee
oh oh carlee, I think I know the one you're thinking of! *blush*
she gets "prettied" up for her dr's visit?
rofl... yep. *blush* that's just too much!
yes...I know that one. Makes me take a second look at the cloth prior to use.
Yes that I know that one
i snorted first time I read it..and I still smile when i think of it
I feel so left out... **heads to google**
got it, thanks phan
I suck at telling jokes herin...
good
I am NOT telling that one here
aw come on.
I need a laugh.
:)
that's one that a google search would turn up, and it is NOT appropriate for an all-ages chat log.
i found it
I found something that seems to fit...but mine is an urban legend/cosmo tale. I think I am all caught up now
Google it is. :)
welcome to the club then Uniquity!
shall i post the link?
Ithink we adults right now?
OK brb pancake time
I think carlee that we never know who is on -- or who will search the archives
ca 9 clue please
more like a long orange veggie knitter...
ok..i won't... although if its the one I read...or have..its not.."bad" or particularily "naughty" just darn embarrassing if it ever happened
true, it's not "bad" but ... never know what some parents allow.
that can not really be a word LOL
LOL probably not, though it worked...
hi all... peeping in to see if I should still start this grid at midnight...
more ca 7/40
{sprite}...how r u?
hello SPRITE!!!!!! *jumps up and down and causes tidal wave that swamps Europe* long time no see!
it's a big, difficult grid. Or so I think... but you can probably do it no trouble.
hanging in there, carlee... broken puter and such, and health still s*cky, but have not lost courage. And am surviving the ugly december month ok so far ;) And you? Hey stidddddd! *hug*
gone to check rice pudding
mmmm. rice pudding. I vote we ALL go to carlee's for dessert/breakfast!
hm, not for the rice pudding... but the company would be worth the trip!
yeap...its for sunday am breakie with the neighbours here
I am plotting a trip to the red planet just for babblers. We'll set up a babble-bubble just outside the spaceport, with our computers linked up and pipe hot coffee/tea/cider/grog directly to the stations, with a lovely big jacuzzi in one section staffed by robots who don't care how much cellulite we have.
*drifts off into la-la land*
i'm surviving sprite.....each day is one day less of winter
I am with you, stiddie
last night was the longest, dear friends. Each day now it gets brighter and better (except for you down-under types -- sorry 'bout that)
*sends carlee a beam of sunlight and a warm hug*
oh, TRUE, stid! The light is winning again!
hello everybody...i havent been on here in a long time!!
thanks sprite......so my hubby is becoming addicted to HGTV
el7amdu lilah ( thank god )
GREENIEEEEEEE!!!!!!! *sends another tidal wave world-wide* how ARE you? are you well?
hi green
i am fine now...this year has been a long one...left hubby in july...
amen, carlee
hi greenie
good evening all. how many words today

{{greenie}} when u going through hell...u can only keep on going
I love all of you guys...it has been too long since i have been on here.
at least that confirms you did the right thing leaving him.
oh golly, what a rotter! *angry mama look*
I love that song carlee
actually its a quote from winston churchill....but yea
it is a country song too...lol
you think it says something about me that I spot am6/21 before related mo5/12?
( I owuldn't know that but ok..take ur word for it ;) )
stirring rice pudding again
LOL what does it say about me that I made it to the SEs without trying the mo5?
LOL stid... I guess we are one of a kind in that aspect then ;)
and down to 99!!!!
yay stiddie! That is how much I got so far, grin.
i've only found 95
yeah, but I been playin' like fer HOURS 'n' stuff, spritely one!
I have 52...just started!!
for me the worst is yet to come, darling, lol
I am still in the easy part
go greenie go!
if we can "tri-age" why not "Tetrage"??? *impatient look*
we can, we sometimes do, but we don't want anyone to know, stid!
from the french "trier"--to sort
rofl...
but of course, Uneaixoise! pour quois pas? LOL
Hi Greengeeny! Welcome back. (((GG)))
nerdiness peeking thru
hi une
I realise you were not adressing me, Scrabbler, but *HUG* to you anyway :)
hey is herin still here?
I rank quite high on the nerd, dork and geek tests, and I am proud of it.
hery carlee :-)
hi Une
hey scrabs!!
*hey
oh..i thought hery was french for hey ;o)
Hi Sprite. I wasn't ignoring you. Do you want to play SCrabble? We can get a game going on facebook.
scrabbler, am particularly high on the nerd scale tonite--just watched and LOVED the documentary "Helvetica"
LOL :-D
How old are your boys now, GG?
oooh! oooh! invite me too scrabbler! please.... *whining*
Back
12 and 5...can you believe it??
96 to go going to take a break getting nowhere fast!! later bye
hi sprite :-)
Scrabbler, I'd LOVE to! But my puter is dead and I need to try and get it back to work again tomorrow...everything must be reinstalled. Shall we play after that?
I am not good at scrabble, but I am enthusiastic! :-D
herin... can u go to lickety chat for a sec?
How are they doing, GG? (Andrew & Christian, right?)
go diem go!
Anyone I didn't just invite to a game is more than welcome to start one with me! I got bored and started seven, but want more!
how are you playing here sprite?
so invite away, and I will play as soon as I can!
Yes, Sprite!
My 5 year old says to me the other day at dinner..."Mom, Andrew has man hairs now. Andrew show mom your man hairs!!" Can you believe it????
What is your Facebook name, uniquity?
awwwww that is SO sweet, green. Yes, they get big. My son is 11 and a half.
rofl.... oh no! *gasp, choke* really hoping he was referring to armpits...
Andrew and Christian....good memory
Green you are going to be good. Kids sound really cute
Sprite, do you have a direct grey matter to cyberspace connection?
Umm...my real one, which is an issue. I posted on the wall of the babble group my "alias", heh
I wish, Scrabbler!
Oh the other day, Christian comes home and says mom, this kid in my class thinks his dad is santa...i want my dad to be santa...that just isnt fair, and his dad doesnt even look like santa!
He kills me with the things that come out of his mouth
ouch... poor kid
okay, I am now down to 90... but I MUST take a break. scrabbler, I put a few pics up on my website today -- one each of the kids and me... they're not the best, but they're representative of our current state.
back soon.
*hugs stiddie*
69 more!!
i still have 224 to go.... and just NOT seeing ANY word sin here
words in*
I only have 1 of the K words so far. I am doing it again... or rather NOT doing it again.
Go Uni go! I just tried to find you on facebook Babblers Worldwide but couldn't figure you out.
I need tow K words also.
there are k words??? lol
And two also
sneeky little K hiding in the bottom right corner. Even sneekier K words hiding behind the other letters in the grid. Bastards they are, all of them.
***ponders word sin, and tackle hugs carlee***
I just posted on the wall again Scrabs, that ought to help
G'd evening babblers!
sin has its bright sides
hey Lori
hey lori... * warm christmas hug to u *
LOL sprite, indeed it does. :-)
Right back at ya' my love. Gonna' eb a good Christmas.
:)
glad to hear it lori....
Absolutely is.. :)
good evening everyone
Started shopping yesterday morn, finished yesterday eve. A personal record for beign early.
wow Lori, that is impressive
hi Mom
Hey Mom, how's your day going?
hello Sprite
Hi Uni, it has been busy. It is way to late to start such a large grid but here I am anyway
Hi Lori and Mom!
How are you?
Hi Scrabbler
Aww, but the grid beckons!
G'd evening Mom. :)
wow...ur good lori..i started thurs...finished yesterday..
Scrabbler, will you have any time off at Christmas?
{{mom}}
Uniquity--I know your name now but cannot get to you to invite you to play Scrabble.
Hi Lori :)
omg... cannot believe that ca9. Mine is ca9 than yours? Nah..... no way.
{{Carlee}} hello
Well, this is just complex Scrabbler. Do we have to be facebook friends first, perhaps?
I am doing rounds 12/24 Am then working from 11-2:30, or until the last sick critter is seen.
***Thinks of a myriad of ways to prevent #1 from finishing grid***
I don't have a ca 9 :(
<lobbing a gummie bear at lori>
LOLOL I'm with you sprite, the ca 9 is a stoopid word.
I cannot find you on facebook except on Babblers Worldwode
Mom, more of Bugs Bunny's favorite food. :-)
Mom, think of an orange coloured veggie. Then make it more so. Then agree with us it is stoooopidoooo!
being friends might help for the scrabble game
I agree it is a stupid word
Question is there an Ar 9?
Thank you Sprite
Hi Herin
***has loaded a grenade launcher with garland, aims at carlee***
who's #1 and why isn't he allowed to finish the grid, Lori?
Oh...I changed all my privacy options. Poo. What is your name on there Scrabs? i ought to be able to add you.
<ducking behind bare tree >
#1 is Uniquity sprite, she's sitting here next to me, and I'm trying to distract her..... :-)
yes herin
ar7 + Mr. Gore
ahhhhhh LOL, you are doing great, Lori!
***you can run, but you can't hide carlee***
( hoping lori decorates my tree ofr me )
There. I think I fixed it. I need to stop messing with facebook! I think Mum and facebook are aligned to distract me
sprite, I finished before her, and she gets really upset if she doesn't finish a grid.
*lobbing the green gummie bears at lori*
Thanks
trying to pull it off you are hard to distract, Uniquity? :)
Sure carlee, right after we do ours....
stirring pudding again
I haven't not finished in quite some time. you can't bring me down, man!
*sings nananananaaaaanaaaaa*
She's so focused. The obsessed eldest. I still have secret plans though.
OK, Uni, I just sent a request to you. Will you please be my friend?
aaahhhh no wonder I couldn't find the other Ks. They are also stoopid.
***loads newly arrived gumi bears in to grenade launcher, aims at carlee***
I have ku4.
yummm rice pudding... I make mine extra creamy ;)
I am your friend now Scrabs, facebook told me so! **anticipates a butt-kicking in scrabble**
my monkeys gave me the k's. Terrible words.
Well, if facebook says so, it must be true!
there is KL5/24 and 6/39 combo. K + apres moi le de**** and plural.
my kids love rice pudding...i was going to bake a holiday bread for christmas morning, maybe i will surprise them and make rice pudding too!!!
Gret clue Sprite, thanks!
yw and thnx :)
I had monkeyed the kl words.
I love rice pudding! And tapioca!
my monkeys are as Kstoopid as their owner, alas
i had 2 day old basmati rice in fridge... so..rice pudding for breakie tomorrow
Sprite hugds
*hugs lady back*
is the chat misbehaving again?
Lady back? Is that different from man back? :)
totally, Uniqity! Different feel alltogether!
Much smoother and softer, I can only assume
as my Christmas gift to you all, i ahd to open the Scrabble dictionary for the ga 6/7 7/8 sequence. ga + that's all she w**** (over) doubling consonants will give you all 4
depends on the man :)
heh heh heh sprite is on tonight!
:D
Distractor! I know what you are up to
oops sorry, I just was myself for one moment ;)
Doing the happy dance! Uniquity is my 29th friend on Facebook. Whoop-dee-doo.
We have people over. They left the back door open. I have a cat. If she gets out im screwed. I am so not happy
TY, Lori--for the 4 ga wordss!
awwww ok, finding ea7/28 makes up for the ca9.
I need a clue for the at7/32, not the singular of the '8'
yvw, I spent a lot of brain cells I couldn't afford to lose on those stoopid words.
phaeton: switch the last two letters of the singular
I have tried every combo for the last mo/12, and I am lost. any help
Did you go find kitty yet Herin? Always puts me in a panic
at 7, anargam the last 3 letters of the 7
at7? ea7? ca9? Waaah, I am so far behind.
ok..i've been at this stoopid grid for hours..and I stil ony have 2 ca words....urgggggg
She didn't get out. If she gets out and gets hurt or lost THEY will pay for it financially
Thank you LoriP
there's one mo 5, but add a cross letter to teh 4 is probably the one you want
ohoh, there we go again... invisible me! :P
hi everyone. i am refreshed from dinner and back to find my last 2 words :)
Hi Robo welcome back
This is the point of time at which you lay down the law about your residence, your cat and your door, methinks.
you paused with only 2 to go? Go away from me, you are NOT a real addict! :)<
Go Robo go!!
Go Robo go! Hang in tehre Scrabbler! ***points spotlight on sprite***
it hink so too herin
I could not have walked away with 2 words to go.
I locked her up last night so she wouldn't get out. Excatley Uni. I live here too. So i have already bitched at them
I would have starved rather than let two words sit...Wow. That is...willpower!
evening folks
no real determination there...
Hi Feather
Hi featherbee!
Hi Feather.
Hey Feather
hi feather
I am confused. I have several mo/5. I am missing the last one.
hi feather
sigh, i have TONS of wrapping to do later tonight!
Join the Confusion Club, fit1. I am president.
I have clearly stated she gets out or gets hurt due to their stupidity they will pay and by that i mean in more ways than one
add second vowel for the last mo 5/12
Feather, I have all the wrapping to do later on, so don't feel bad!
my last mo5 is the last 4 with an extra vowel
well scrabbler. I have even tried atoz, and it didn't help
second vowel is the E
Hey feather, g'd evening

Sorry to miss you Mom... sweetest of the sweet dreams... how did hubby do last night in the election?
Oh Scarlet .... he won
Yippee for you and your sweetheart, MOM... positive thinking has its rewards!!! BIG smiles!!
Huge smiles, Scarlet. I am so thrilled for him
so... rucola salad on a plate. Pasta over it, like tagliatella or tortellini. Put sour cream and green pesto with some water into a pan and stir it while heating, for the sause. Pour over the pasta, add some roasted pinetree seeds and cheese. Delicious, very easy and quick. Recipe from a good friend of mine.
A clue for the ca5/14
election for????
thanks to you and all the others for the positive wishes
bye Mom!
Gosh, I am thrilled and never even met him... :-)
ca + read only memory
Carlee, my sweetie was nominated to be President of the elevator local that he works in
oh Scarlet, he is a sweetheart
sounds yummy..but way too much work... sorry...i'm thinking weiners and beans on toast..if I have the beans...
and he won the election which was held last night
He deserves his equal, then, Mom... I feel so happy for you both!
very cool mom....
Thank you moonwolf
Good for him Mom!
too much work??? LOL, it is no work at all. In that case, honey, have chinese brought home.

thank you Carlee and DR.
yw phae
Carlee. Open can of tuna and add to a packet of mac and cheese
off to mix up buckeyes so I can dip them tomorrow.

Wow. That recipe sounds amazing Sprite! I am gonna go copy/paste it...
Hi, spritey!! Big hug! :-) Where is Uni lurking...
Scarlet!!! ***Big Christmas hugs***
Oh, kat... why are you feeding just your lonesome, tonight?
it is wonderful, Uniquity! Let me know what you thought of it!
{{{Lor}}} Now my heart has grown three sizes... LOL
heyyyy Scarlet! Must have missed your entry when I was kicked out. *hug*
yep..just me.. son oot and aboot... hubby had cheese toasties..( not appealing to me tonight)..and missie is at a friends for a sleepover...
{{Hugs back}} So good to see everyone!
Well, i won't get it done until the beginning of january when i am back at school, but will definitely let you know!
You know they just kicked you out so their rankings would go up...
Good night {{ DR, Moonwoof, Carlee, Lori, Uni, Scarlet, Sprite, Herin}} See y'all tomorrow
no hurry, recipes will keep much longer than the ingredients ;)
bye Mom, sleep well
Scar, your heart already grew three sizes when you decorated...but I enjoy your Grinch references!!
thanks Sprite, you as well.
lol, they can have my rankings any time they want
That's almost like a micro-vacation, kattie... There is always a can of soup or Ramen noodles with garlic, butter and some leftover chicken...
Carlee that is why i have at least one frozen home cooked meal in the freezer at all times
I'm just watching your back spritey. It's Vicious in here.
i think I'll skip it... nothing appealing tonight
Awwwww... Uni, you just made it grown another size... daggone happy people make it hard for me to "Bah! Humbug!"
***hey everybody, let's ALL talk to Scarlet at once, and then pout when she doesn't answer us individually*** :-)
almost, Mom... must finish first... only 50 more to go.
LOLLLL Lori, you wicked witch of the west!
I'm trrrrrryyyyyyyyyyiiiiinnnnnnnnnggggggg gg//11&^#)*&!
Carle all else fails cerial
OOOooo. Good idea lori. Nothing like guilt to drive them off their game.
moon, don't make me call the RCMPs...
What?!? Montie left!
I'm not picking on him AT ALL LOL
carlee, part of you is a valid word!
Elvis has LEFT the building!
What are you doing with my RCMP you crazy Americans?
***I'm so far in the boonies, mad trappers couldn't find me***
Exactly.... I'm telling him... He'll round 'em up...
Mad trappers LEFT you there, Lor
I came back here over half an hour ago with 75 words left. After all this fantastic discussion I still have...57 left. You fun people need to disconnect for half an hour so I can finish!
LOL!
I am friends with montreal, and if I tell on moon, he'll round up the Mounties and get 'em over the border in a jack flash!!
we cannot, Uniquity. How would we finish ourselves?
I lived at our cabin one winter... May I NEVER do that again. I was so far out mad trappers were wet dreams.
hmz.. strange sentence that has become. Finish ourselves?
With a ga8?
sprite -- where is Hellevoetsluis?
never leave home without your battery boy, woof...
hi all
HI Jill
better than with a fa4/7, Uniquity
Hi, jillli. How much do you have left to do on this?
I started talking to the dog after two months up there. Blech.
a mere 152, lol!
jilli!!!!! Definitely in the Netherlands... want to know near which town?
Did the dog talk back, moon?
yes please sprite
I waited a month, but no.
He did laugh at me, tho.
LOL, jilli... then, you have some concentrating to do... I suggest you slide chat over... Pssst: these people are VERY strange...
very. AND we have issues =P
***sitting back, reading chat, eating a late supper, cholesterol on a plate, burger and fries***
Save a few issues for me, I might have to sneeze later...
scarlet, I wouldn't miss them for all the world!
LOL... oh, do I know, jilli... STRANGE 'R Us...LOL
I can only part with half a box, Red, but here ya go. {{wonder if she'll notice the cayenne}}
My kind of woman, Lori... red meat and potatoes, preferably done in hot fat.... mmmmmmmmm
ok..back from putting pudding into serving glasses
I say you eat these puddings you keep talking about for supper Carlee
Did you sneak a little to fill that empty void, kattie... Lori is glomming down red meat and taters... I think she saved you a crumb...
Oh Nice carlee. I forgot about the pudding dinner option.
Lori isn't the only one! Mmmm
nah... i like it once is cool and set...
jilli: http://www.zoekplaats.nl/index. cgi?actie=plaats&zoek=hellevoetsluis
where's mine lori?
it is in Zeeland
Wait, you didn't use the shake up kind??
what kind of pudding, carlee? I missed the previous chat
rice pudding
***hands carlee a plate of cholesterol***
thanks lori...
thanks, sprite. Just had an order from a Dane breeder there for my book :)
You Did end up working for it. =P I get so hurried sometimes I just microwave up a "grilled cheese"
a clue for the ea7/48?
Here are some cayenned "issues" to wipe your mouth when you're done, kat.
Love rice pudding, with raisins
and rotterdam is the nearest big town, Rockanje and Rozenburg and Maassluis are near.
oh WOW jilli, that is wonderful!
yeap... raisins... extra creamy..no cinnamon..but lots of vanilla and brown sugar
That's some great news, jilli...
*heading for atlas*
Phae, when you read a book, sometimes you don't book**** it, you ea7.48 it.
Ohhh, kat... brown sugar... nice touch...never made it that way, but I love nutmeg.
ea 7, compund word hearing organ + Uni's ****s or gardes, better be good..... :)
jilli, this might work too: http://www.zoekplaats.nl/map.pl?p c=3221&plaats=Hellevoetsluis
or just zoom in and out
Nutmeg goes well in french toast, too.
* grades even
en garde, Uniquity!
Thanks moon!
**stands on toes** or is that something else? :)
Like I said, sprite is on tonight! LOL
Yep, moon... I do use it with vanilla in French Toast...
en garde is more like when someone stepped on your toes, Uniquity :)
YThere is too many A words
ok...gone to dig in freezer and see if I have a frozen curry dinner in there
sprite, you are making my sides hurt...
Good luck kattie!
You seem to get sharper as the night goes on Sprite! **gives up**
Yes -- great indeed. A guy in Germany was given one by his sister for his birthday and now someone in Luxembourg and this person in the Netherlands have ordered copies -- he told them it’s one of the best books he’s ever read! Isn't that a lovely Xmas present for me!
Uni, did you wolf down a burger and fries already? Wow... then you should finish this thing in two minutes flat.....
yeah, I am a creature of the night, sigh
and deservedly so, jilli! *hug*
That's fabulous jilli. Good for you!
Awwwww, jilli... what a tribute to you!
I am typing as I finish my fries...I forgot about the grid
*beaming*
*GAsp*... Uni, the holidays are taking their tolll on your brain power....
darn... I know so many F words, but none seem to be valid today...
You guys are makingme laugh!
Don't worry Scar, I will get it all back together shortly
Happy Hour approacheth -- back in a mo
keep it up :)
las ag4/7?
haha
and fries is a phantom, Uniquity!
I can think of a couple f words, Sprite ;)
Go, Uni, go... maybe being around LoriP for too much time has done some irreversible damage to your concentration...
***has fire extinguisher at the ready, since sprite is so hot tonight***
yeah, those are probably the same as mine, Uniquity! Need to get my head out of the gutter I guess...
lol Lori :)
Oh Scarlet. Silly woman! She was doomed from the get - go, with my DNA contributions.....
**Ready, Set, Blast Away**
are you saying I am FL7/44 than usual?
last ag 4/7 after agma
Or back in sprite. Ironically, most of the "f"s are food reelated, somehow.
Doomed or not, she belongs on Babble... that much is crystal clear, Lor...
(speaking of stooopid words)
You all underestimate my desire to conquer this grid, I fear...
hm... I found one that I get after eating too much veggies, woof, so I guess you are right!
go Uniquity gooooo!
Oh no. Next she's gonna say something about the dark side. Lori, if you start hearing james earl jones, RUN!
Oh-oh... delusions of grandeur... conquering is a dead giveaway... taking over New Hampshire, next, I suppose?
the dark side has its attractions...
(I didnt say it didnt sprite, but I gotta cover my butt, in print...)
I would have to find New Hampshire first, Scarlet...and I would need a passport thanks to new rules
ag + bl** moon, rare
grinnnn
drem: last ag means chills and shakiness--ag+ next 2 pt. + 2nd vowel
sounds like an interesting tattoo, woof...
red..did u get the movie clip I sent u?
I AM YOUR FATHER, LUKE...
I would think I'd be less ga6.27 if I was medium rare...
Yes, kattie, but it would not load for me...I really wanted to see it, too.
you are way beyond medium rare, woof... you are a very rare person!
thanks!
:( hmmm...wonder why
head desk
ty {{grin}} and it prolly would be. I'll have to work on some artwork for it... It would require pondering.
*puts pillow on lady's desk, wondering about that strange habit of banging own head*
hey there
back again
Atalante is designing mine, woof :)
I thought that the "running head into things gene" was Y related...
Hey Praise!
G'd evening praise
hi uni
hi praise
I dont' know, kat... I even had daughter look at it to see what I was doing wrong, and it was kaput! :(
Hi, there, P2H
Hi PRaise Welcome to being PRo
wb praise. That sounds very cool sprite. You should email that with the translation =D'
hi Sprite, Lori, Scarlet
crapola
ty herin
either that, woof, or someone with Y genes is evoking the ur4 to bang heads.
Sprite to many sodding bloody As
will do when it is finished!
I know... maybe you can re-send it... it may have been corrupted between Canada and the Southern USA... not a big surprise there... it hits North Carolina and goes belly up.
can anyone help me with the first ar 4's I cannot figure where to go
Hi back again
ok, maybe the "As" gene has just been found...
they won't go away with your banging your head, lady... just conquer them and let them hide behind grey curtains :)
Paris has a famous one, ruru
ruru- the first ar4 is mcDonalds golden ar**es
ar's, 2 plurals, after the paris vlue
resent it red
* clue
Point there but i cant finish them
Then lose the last letter and replace it with a plural, then the god of war; then a diva's solo...
and ar** was a greek god of war.
***wonders why carlee resents Sacrlet*** :-)
I like Scarlet, myself, actually. A lot!
OHHHHHHH I didn't look down there thanks I can move on now
and then, I love to ar***, because I like a fight. :)
LOL Nice misread.
It's an old and sad tale, Lori... we are working on our issues... *sob*
( its a video of hubby walking..unaided...down a hall lori )
yw ruru
owwww WOOOOT carlee! Heroism!
Oh Wow carlee! Great for him!!!
That's awesome carlee. Like I said, keep the faith girl! I'm ecstatic for you all.
Thank you, dear. Will check on it very soon.

hi sprite :)
It's all FMitchs' fault!
well, it's going to take a moment...
the one right before mist, ruru, is the same, but anagram the last 3 letters
heh. well that's ok.
I am so missing our granny.
LOL hi jes!
I miss FMitch...<3
It IS Mitch's fault. She infected him first...
yeah - fr 4/10 - a dance then qualified it with "if you're old enough to remember" :)
That is some message, saphyre...
Granny was awesome.
someone please put me out of my missery. How many La words please
I hear everything amiss is FMitch's fault
I AM old enough to have invented it, saph... I fr**ged with the best of them...
hey jill!
lol scarlet :)
lady, I'll do better than that. I'll tell you 13 AND let you live.
hi again stid -- you didn't notice my first hi, lol
thanks I finally finished the a's I feel like I have already played a game...holy cow
and I'm older than the fr4
what is F Mitcvh
I count 13 La words. But i'm here cause math aint my strong suit.
Yes jilly, FMitch is a great source of trouble making of all manner. :-)
ruru... tighten your seatbelt... the A words were a waltz...
finished! WHEW!
what is F Mitch's fault?
wtg DR
YAY DR!!!!
*Nods wisely with jilli*
Someone confirm the LAs please how many.
Congrats DR!!!!
anything, ruru, lol
better ask what not, ruru
I told you, lady
Yahoo for DR... Wow... *tossing flowers, champagne and chocolates*
Congrats 65
YAY DR!!!
Thanks! It took all day
ruru, I can sum it up best, by sayibng "everything" :)
This can be done, you mean? There aren't just 286 words?
Max had a last request so if anyone would like to grant it - she wanted everyone to have an eggnog on Christmas eve at midnight and think how luck we are to have family and friends
Thanks Sprite you vanished off my screen before i saw
*catches the chocolate before DR can get her hands on them*
Thanks too mon
TA 7/28 please? I have the 6/18 before, if that helps...
LOL Uni.. this was a challenge to be sure!
***I always knew Uniquity should have been a Ritalin kid*** :-)
I've been too busy to try -- reached my biggie goal last night -- over halfway and no blank tiles.
Saphyre i would love to but i cant drink nog :( um ill light her a candle
oh, saphyre, I was okay until the eggnog bit... *cries*
stid, more of that 6
sorry stid - I promised Milt I would pass it on
I will do that, and remember, saph. {{Hugs}}}
Saphyre, there will certainly be some eggnog consumption in this house, as Lori and I will both be here...
phone bbl
It only kinda helps mama. The first 5 of the 6 + emergency room
ta7/28 is more ta6
no, it's okay, it's just so like her... and I love eggnog.
thanks DR!
down to 78...
:)
later Lori
*hugs stidmama* she will be sooo missed, even by those of us who did not know her IRL.
that's so sweet, saph -- I'll try but my son and family may not have eggnog available and that's where I'll be
and thanks also moon!
OH dear Lori and UNi together drinking nog. No babble for you too drunken loons that night
well then just "think" eggnog :)
I was doing okay and ignoring the sadness until that Saphyre. That is the kindest thing...
mmmm eggnog is so good thuogh
we have a lovely soy-based, alcohol-free nog that we enjoy... no need to damage one's system. ;-)
Nog includes no alcohol for me, I am not a fan.
I will try as well.
I make my own... no booze, either...
OH Stid you rock must look up a recipe for that
she wouldn't want anyone to be sad Uni - just grateful for what you have
it is very possible to be a fan of grannymaxx without being one of eggnog ;)
saph, my eyes are getting awfully wet
and grannymaxx would be perfectly okay with a toast from the beverage one enjoys most, too...
That is such a wonderful message during the holidays Saph!
We all seem to have this amazing embarrassment of riches... look at the friendships right here... they are real and they are strong...
yes she would stid
First TA 5/12 please? I have the 5/14 before it
hear hear, Scarlet
It's a True message tho. I wish more people Knew it in their hearts.
ca 5/14 please
so true Scarlet - sorry to bring anyone down - just that the fr** was there
I love my babble-buds! *breaks down in tears and hugs everyone I can reach*
Like an enchilada... ok half an enchilada that starts with a T
I think my drinking of eggnog might be altered for some time. Thank you Saph, I so appreciate what you have done for us here
ta5/12 is a mexican corn meal burrito minus th elat letter Stid
thanks moon!
group hug :)
Saph how are you and yours handling this if you don't mind. ALso how is her family? We miss her terribly but babble parties are better than a sad one
I am not sad... I look at having know grannymaxxx as a great gift, and I am a better person for it, saph...
and DR... is the next 5/12 similar?
hi everyone
OBviously, my spelling does not need any alcohol :)
don't be sorry, saphyre. It is good to remember her. And if that brings sadness, it is because we were not ready to miss her yet.
and ca5.14 is ca + read only device
Yes Stid- change the last 2 letters
rofl DR... my figners are well-lubricated today and I am drinking only really strong tea!
thanks DR
good Scarlet - I'm sure Milt conveyed the same thoughts
While Lori is on the phone, I must put the boys to bed Be back shortly
evening TO
ok..i go away to make myself a peanut butter and banaan sandwich and the room is in tears and now I'm crying...
Hi TO!
Exactly, saph... it is true...
hey TO!
hey TO!
ho TO
hi too :)
hi TO
{{{{{carlee}}}}} we love you -- and I'll be there in the morning for pudding!
ho ho TO!
Dont cry on the sandwich Carlee! Soggy bread is yucky
*hugs carlee*
i am not gong to play this one
okay, got the next ta 5... on the the 6/7 combo... *frowns at grid*
I am not crying. I have a smile on my face from all the good times she gave us
you are the wiser one, TO. I did, started at midnight. Argh.
Well, I'm sorry I never got to meet her in any way. But I'm sure she wouldnt want Crying... unless you meant over just having a samich...
just out of curiosity...cus I've abandonned the grid...what was the word?
i still have 111 to go - guess I should try to enter some words here :)
that's the spirit, herin -- thumbs up!
she started coming here because she preferred our babble parties over pity parties, woof. So exactly, you got her figured :)
smart TO! VERY smart....
ta6/24 is another name for where a plane lands
i am not done shoping. and the last gift i have no idea what to get
What work, kattie...the fr word. It was the name of a dance in the late 60s early 70s
i am not done shoping. and the last gift i have no idea what to get
She never wanted pity partys. I have her as a friend and when i need i read her profile and think of all the strenght she had
how's everyone doing? how are you. spritey?
She sounds like my grandpa. He was Very Wise.
I'd be happy if I got the big words done -- I have one 9 (two to go) and one 8 (four to go)
ARRRRGH! flying fish for me! (my paternal unit was a pilot)
hi TO... incredibly tired. Should be in bed. But am enjoying both grid and company way too much to quit before finishing, lol. And youy?
she was a strong person - a good friend, a great wife mother grandmother & greatgrandmother - she was just Max :)
not so much pity herin..just looking back at all the "changes" since I first met her...
lol, stid! Paternal unit!
I am still struggling with the next to last MO/12. It comes between two fours, and no matter what I do, I can't get it. I've tried adding another cross letter, but nada. I guess I'm doomed not to get this puzzle.
ca 5/14 anyone?
hands Stid a salmon
she inspired me, saphyre, from afar :)
THERE! all the TA words, all the T are trammeled!
tantastic, stiddie!
what is the SI 5/16 please?
can anyone help me with the ca 5/14?
ruru, ca5.14 = ca + Read Only Memory
an some one tell me the 9s please help beg beg beg. Ru i can't help you
ca5/14-- think of billiards.
SI5/16 is a greek letter
thanks DR *thinking*
GOT IT!!!
Lady, think of Bugs Bunny's favorite food, and make it more so... LOL
which MO5/12 do you need?
tis is fun -- just watch for clues in the chat
That's the 9/60
ok, who wants to kick my butt out of this chair to go wrap?
the ridiculous ca9 is the only 9 I have
Yeah... What the heck kinda word is That, anyway? Who's screwing around with the dictionary??
Thats ok
DR. I need the next to last mo/12

at the end
i went on our game stid. and i'll stop monday night quarterbacking your moves from now on...
well, all my wrapping is DUN -- we don't celebrate Christmas *chortle*
The TE 9/66 is a plural of the TE8/50... Add the bottom of your foot to the TE5/10
3rd word from the bottom of the mo's DR
lol feather (it wasn't easy!)
si5.16 + the dog *** my clue
si7 -- build on si5 above it
thanks feather -- I hope you will keep quarterbacking, feather, it's more like coaching when it comes from you!
GOT IT! :-D
*looks at clock and forces self to finish and not chat*
go sprite go!
i think the chat is frozen
oh, ok then. i was afraid it would get annoying to have better moves pointed out after a while! i'll just do it when i see a really good opportunity missed then.

bye praise
yw jilli!
oh gee, I drifted off... again.
you too praise
at8 makes tiny particles of something.
bye praise
aww. Need coffee mama?
Thanks, moon......that made more sense
I need coffee but am too lazy to get up to make it
at8 is often used like a mist-er for colds.
okay, everyone, it's not a good one, but you can sorta see the sc 5 I just got in my icon now...
ga8 is the longest of the strangling ga 6-7-7-8 combo. It has both consonants doubled.
awwww pretty, stid!
i could have some delivered, saph, but it'd prolly be cold by the time it got there...
ah. that GA 8 was the last 8 I needed!
I meant the picture wasn't good... *sigh* the SC 5 is LOVELY! and warm.
O ajve tje at
thanks anyway jes - it's the thought that counts :)
what, herin?
Did you make the sc5 Stid?
interpreting for the aussie... " I have that."
the room here is Full of a lot of Babble re8.55s
no, jesdraggon did!!!
ro8 turning around machineries
lol stid
and I still need the SA 6 (please)
hello, did someone mention me ?? **looking at stids post**
Oooh, inter-babble presents!
No that was at me. I THanks everyone
hi aussie
I wans't looking when typing
LOL no, trying to clear up herinfernalady's utterance... LOL hi AUSSIE!
hello herin...
Well, aussie. It wasn't me. I swear on.... uh, I swear on sprite.
and then the te8/9 combo. Ends in the famous Paris thing we found in the As. I think it is a geometrical figure. And its plural.
hi aussieme
But now that you mention devil's. =)
it's nuttier than usual here
hey saph, stid, moon, sprite, everyone else, jilli,
I didn't, Aussie, but I will if you want me to: *mentions Aussie*
where is nut, anyway? she's not here tonight!
It's an aquarium fish, sprite.
and now I need 19 more
HUgs Aussie
it's a math prefix or a fish.
**hugs herin back** how are you girl ?
arghhhhh woof, really? How on earth did it make me think of a geometrical figure then?
go sprite go! down to 54 now...
hows this monster grid shaping up ?
thanks slightly less nuts now the high wones are done.
brb
it's monstrous, aussie...
35 more! I got my concentrating hat on now
because its a prefix. But it would need another math word to work for that.
ugly, Aussieme. Really ugly. Has taken me almost 3 hours already
still need the SA 6... (nudge, nudge)
Aussie i had a flood and lost most off my crap in the garage oh well
brb
But they're pretty (if slightly agressive) fish.
hold on, **looking**.... **big hugs for herin**
oh no lady!!!! when did that happen? I didn't hear...
sa + brits thank you + first 2 letters of bad rodent
that was for you, stiddie
thanks sprite!!! Ss squashed!
Weeelllll In all honesty sprite would be done if we weren't "helping" aussie =)
3 rhyming syllables
the te8 is neither a fish nor a geometric thingie. It's "the ruler of the fourth part of a country or province in the ancient Roman Empire. " and similar peeps.
does the RI 6 build off the previous 5?
lol woof... I talk too much, have been doing that all my life...
jilli... so glad we can always count on you!
well, the whole word, yes jilli... But when broken down a te5.10 is a fish.
and what is with all the RA words today? *sits down in a funk*
oh gawd, there are 3 x 9's ?
plural the 5, stid
I know, sprite. I resemble that.

That's funny tho. I have a friend we Still call Peff to this day, cause his little brother couldn't get "jeff".
more vegetably
nothing. it's even More ca6.21
and it's a pretty stoopid word, imo
I think they musta blushed when they found carrots, but had named oranges first.
lol, moon. The little guy said "Lookada beauFitul sunset!" He is now a dedicated and brilliant black-and-white photographer.
lol
That's very cool. My brother does painting and photography, too.
I totally just put that in the chat. Someone get a fish.
Kinda ironic tho that he liked the colors of a sunset but now does black and white...

excuse please...how do i end a game..i can't find anymore words.
hi Nonnie

Theres a problem with that we have 2 for one tickets and he has the money
it's so you can do a loop over your head to keep your ears warm, then around the neck to keep that warm, and then tuck the ends into your coat so they don't flap ;)

AM 7 #1: "loving" am* + t4
i tell em to leave me alone - they mess up my 400 hair and i;m gonna spit on em
no TO -- I probably would not...
the other AM 7 is the am 4/5 that comes before it... it's the place the am 4/5 rules
second ea5 please?
owl...those mall people approach me...i start yelling "don't touch me don't touch me!",...and run away
today one walked up to me and said " i want to show you something"
the AM 6 is A + M 5 (following the ethical code)
i bit my tongue.
dont have the am 4 but thanks anyway. dont know what t 4 you refer to.
I think I would probably be too allergic to their perfumes and just break out in a rash anyway...
hahahah owl! did they show you?
the AM 4 is a ruler of an arab country, usually we see it as em**
HAIL no
the T4 is the political party in Britain, not Labour, but TO**
ty for the am 6. got it and the m 5.
re 7 40 - hail, both of them please?
stid have that party. will try.........
I need a clue for the te8
put a vowel between the AM and the T4
great, now ren be talking about elmo and i be looking at elmo vids on youtube
ty stid got it.
tr 8 is the leader of the greek church I think... start with greek 4 and end with a curved doorway. then plural of course for 9
how bout the 5.16? missing tyhree after that one too.
I think elmo is ANNOYING. He squeaks.
AM 5/16: spanish Friend, girl-type
i love elmo, he sounds so sweet and innocent
stid, what is a greek 4
it is preceded by four other "friendly" words, french or italian looking
isnt greek 4 quad? dont see a q.

the greek 4 is the same as a fish people like to have in their tanks te5
nutters - more of y our preezie came in today - i'll mail them next week ok?

"quad" is latin in origin

okay, we got this little guy in August. Couldn't tell he was older when we got him from the weird light in the store, so he's a little more shy and hard to train than a younger bird. Or so I am told, having never had a bird before.
k
This 'keet is skittish, but very pretty. We bring him out in the living room when the kids are at school or we are up during the day. But he has been slow to warm to any of us... even the kid he belongs to.
thank you and good night *clunk.....*
whoooo hooooo HARP!
Well yesterday, we took him out in the kid's room and just sat with him. I was going to trim his nails, but they didn't look that bad on close inspection.
YAY harpjane!!!!!! (sweet dreams)
but yesterday he actually sat on the kid's hand and ate some seed. And he did it again today -- even transferred to me. *proud mama look* I think we are finally figuring it out!
sweet dreams, Jane
yay :)
never had a bird, but it sounds like he's decided to keep you! :-)
I hope so. the kid is just in love with him. Me? I think he's got a screw or two loose -- that means he fits right in with this family!
lol, stid
any more clues needed in the last 13 minutes?
mkg -- you still working on things?
heh. i've never been much of a bird person--too messy and noisy, and the cats would just terrorize them
have a good one--need to go to bed!!!
true. and of course the german shepherd LOVES parakeets, he says, "with barbeque sauce..." LOL I am basically just a "critter" person.
sweet dreams pam!
sweet sleep, Pam
or you could say "sleep, sweet Pam" and still make sense LBD!
yeah, but i'd probably mix it up and get sweet, sleep pam
I do stuff like that a lot...
I hope for a more reasonable grid tomorrow. Something around 250 would be nice
i had an english teacher who just loved messing with commas!
250 is doable...i think...maybe...
;-) that's what I was thinking -- the grammatical punctuation lesson... I wonder how hetty taught things like that?
how's the family LBD? getting visitors this coming week, or ???
the one comma rule that sticks in my head is, when in doubt, leave it out.
no visitors. DIL doesn't have any vacation time, and son is working on his thesis to be turned in after the 1st.
I haven't ever internalized that one... I tend to revert to 1700s style. Comma, when one needs, and comma in between, and commas in common, no matter the theme.
i read in you bio that riemann will be arriving! yeah!
wow. that won't be very restful for them, will it?
YES! next weekend! he is with his family up north at the moment. Will get him for two or three days
what is your son working on, LBD? (you've probably told me and I have forgotten)
Well, DIL can escape to work whilst son is babysitting!
rofl... smart woman!
his masters in quantum physics or something like that.
Aloha Babblers!
FRANNY!!!!! hey!
Yeah, she's a great young lady and a good mom too.
FRANNIE!
hi stid! hi dawg!
oh -- he would probably love riemann -- I completely get lost almost the moment that poor man tries to explain his theoretical math stuff. I almost understood once... *sigh* but it's not my best field and I don't "do" theoretical
but riemann seems to understand almost every field. I am quite inadequate around him. But we love him dearly. *happy smile*
oh wow, just got fireworks!! yay!
YAY mrp!!!! and just in time!
I laugh at my son when he get's too far out there!
whooooo hoooooo MRP!
greetings and tidings!
LOVE the family portrait, mrp -- where do YOU get an evergreen tree this time of year?
hello chic!
hi chic!
just in time indeed!!
CHEEKY
