1:31 am

1:31 am

nice to see you here jellen!

1:31 am

jilli, when are you going to sleep (speaking sternly)?

1:32 am

hi hi ru ru

1:32 am

I'm just about to go, ruby, lol!

1:32 am

m9 as look as it's not chucklehead. I think that was (one of the few clean) Deadwood expressions

1:33 am

my next housekeeper showed up and I am SO happy! I had all sorts of anxiety because she was unreachable by phone and I didn't have her last name or address, just the recommendation and introduction by a friend in the village

1:33 am

phew, is all I can say. This is a very dirty house with two long-haired dogs and a sometimes-muddy garden

1:34 am

that's great, ruby!

1:34 am

new, not next*

1:35 am

I do not have the strength or ability to do more than cook, do laundry (but not iron), do the garden and clean the kitchen

1:35 am

Hooray for the new housekeeper!

1:35 am

and ru.. right now I'm thinking it could do with a couple LESS i's... (2 are giving me the EVIL i )!!

1:36 am

will she be there every day, ruby?

1:36 am

an d she's the right age (42), lives in the village, is a single mom with 2 kids and loves the hours! What more could I ask. And she's portugeuse [sp?], so I can share my tomato bounty with her

1:36 am

hi all - been incommunicado for the last few days - doing the house. had sis up for the weekend and we managed to half fill a skip from the rubbish in my bedroom alone We are nearly there with the first tranche - still need to finish my office and then we will be down to the nitty gritty stuff that is more difficult to decide whether to keep or chuck

1:36 am

she'll come 4 mornings. The temp I had for 5 weeks only came for 5-6 hours a week and, although she worked hard, it wasn't enough to keep the house clean

1:37 am

1:38 am

so sorry. I hope there's coffee in the PB! slinking away. But have you noticed the same words appearing the last few days (those words, BTW)

1:39 am

darn! i thought maybe 'stope' was a word I had missed in the grid!LOL

1:39 am

I still recommend Babble Expert, ruby!

1:39 am

we decided that we were going to clear out our clutter as i am semi retiring and we needed the garage roof doing but that was full of c**p so we emptied that and then when sis turned up she just kept going - she threatened to come back and start on the rest

1:39 am

should the u be obvious?!?!?

1:39 am

no, m9

1:40 am

I am useless, jilli

1:40 am

does expert tie your hands?

1:40 am

well then I feel a LITTLE better..

1:40 am

downsizing can be good kaz.. that sounds healthy

1:40 am

it was until it took me 20 minutes to find some clothes for work this morning!

1:41 am

Expert stopsyou from doing what you did, ruby

1:41 am

It makes babbling a lot easier

1:41 am

can I borrow your sister, please Kaz? I have a whole house of junk that needs to be cleared out.

1:42 am

hello mummy

1:42 am

has anyone here ever played Bejeweled 3? It's a Wild Tangent game.

1:42 am

1:42 am

I haven't, flosey -- I don't need any more games, thank you!

1:42 am

she is very good - everything was scutinised and if she deicde it was to crappy to wear or wash it went in the bin! - and i think she enjoyed it as well

1:42 am

I thought you went to bed a long time ago flosey

1:42 am

I've played bejeweled, but not sure about the 3

1:43 am

hi Ruby, pity I don't live near you, I could be your housekeeper, needing something to keep me busy since I finished work

1:43 am

yes, I should, but there's a 2 and a 3 m9

1:43 am

hi jilly

1:43 am

1:43 am

hello flosey

1:43 am

1:43 am

hi ruby

1:44 am

I really am off - just wanted to ask, guess not

1:44 am

and you speak English, mummy, I have to do all this in French!

1:44 am

I wanted to brag about a score I got this morning

1:44 am

yes, Kaz, I remember from our past conversations.

1:44 am

I have to go to bed -- goodnight all -- 60 left --*poof

half the grid is vowels!! oh dear!!

also updated my info :) am on my way to happiness :)

oooh, tu4 is in the grid! perfect word for my prick/pouff!

2:44 am

hi mrp

2:45 am

yeesh there are alot of i's and e's and o's

hi carlee! **hugs))

what was that!!? **hugs** i meant!

2:53 am

how are u hun?

i was commenting before that half the grid was vowels!

suffocating :(

2:54 am

( one handed hug with a coule kisses on the cheek???? )

how are you ??

2:54 am

couple* even

2:54 am

awake at 4 am....sooooo...

that works for me! hugs and kisses!

2:54 am

why suffocating..what have i missed?

soooo, not so good

oh babe

2:55 am

( its as creative as i get at 4 am)

wish it would all be better now, but we just move through life at the moment I guess

2:55 am

I am listening to LBC re: the riots in london...

what a shocker! an outer suburb too... not good

2:57 am

i like the idea of setting up night courts... and getting these tu4's dealt with immediately using the video they have

yeah, it would work for me!

3:01 am

was insane earlier tonight when i was listening to LBC.... ONLY LBC and twitter were the only ones reporting about sun riots... BBC and sky werent....was weird

3:02 am

the police removed trending topics from twitter to try and stem the 'communication" of the rioters

that is bizzare!

where are they, in Russia or China!??

3:10 am

well... the social media is how these people are communicating... is the new word of mouth....

removing the topics is just appalling

however, if they are carrying on with lies, that is another story

I am ready for what is coming from now on.... all defenses are up

3:13 am

so what is happening now?

have alarms, lights, cameras... have to protect ourselves now

3:14 am

did i miss something??????

the Prick/Pouff is being served his papers tonight... he goes to court now and HE is the defendant. The court will talk to the police and he will be given orders to stay away from me... absolutely!

3:17 am

ok...well..good... at least we are getting to the point whereby something is going to be done

i am still unprotected for a week

3:19 am

but u have the cameras etc...

and in this time... he can do whatever he wants... but the police are very aware and have given me the go ahead to call them if he comes near me. I guess I am half protected already

3:20 am

they will have a specific code for u as well

3:20 am

my girlfriend had a neighbour... who was known by police...

3:21 am

and he would call police if there were grass clippings in their driveway from when my girlfriend mowed the lawn

3:22 am

but b/c they knew he was unstable and from previous experience.... there was a specific code on that made sure a car was sent ASAP rather than down the list as they KNEW one day this guy was going to snap and my girlfriend and her family would be in danger

3:23 am

so..should u have to call...they will be quick...( I am sure there are sim policies in all departments around he world for nutters... its an only logical way to proceed)

3:28 am

ok...that is nbt....

3:30 am

New player greetings

3:34 am

hi sheila

3:34 am

new and pro?????

3:35 am

How do I get a flag?

3:36 am

in ur profile asks where u are from

3:38 am

Playing on smart phone. Tricky@

3:38 am

ahhh... ok i have not tried that

3:42 am

there we go..nbt and nbs in 35

3:56 am

morningall

3:56 am

how are you all

3:56 am

dreis

3:57 am

just picked about 3 kgs of tomatoes, many strawberries and blackberries and must sit down for a few!

3:58 am

hello ruby, you've been busy

3:58 am

what are you going to do with the tomatoes?

4:01 am

I don't really know. I've started giving them away -- perhaps I should set up a small stand in the street hahah, put the dog there and use the "honor system"

4:01 am

thats a good idea

4:01 am

I gave away 2 kgs on Saturday and am giving away another 2 kgs today. They are beautiful and tasty, but overwhelming

4:01 am

not sure about the dog though lol

4:02 am

you could make chutney?

4:02 am

tomato sauce for the freezer

4:02 am

for chillis etc....

4:02 am

I tried freezing them one year, but it wasn't worth the effort; they became all watery. And I don't feel like making pots of sauce as my fridge is in the process of dying and I'd just have even more frozen stuff to throw out

4:03 am

I don't have a good tomato chutney recipe. If you have one, please send it to my e-mail address (in my profile)

4:03 am

and welcome to Sheila!

4:03 am

if you freeze you can only use them in cooking I should think

4:03 am

I have one somewhere Ruby, I'll dig it out for you later

4:03 am

they were too watery even for cooking; canned are better

4:04 am

not on this notebook

4:04 am

no rush

4:04 am

ok :)

4:04 am

how can I be this tired and it isn't even 11AM!

4:04 am

I'm as bad as my fridge!

4:04 am

well picking all that produce is work......

4:05 am

I can't imagine the people who labor in the fields all day; can they ever straighten up?

4:06 am

and you have to remember that you cant do as much as you once could...I have major problems with that myself loll

4:07 am

my heart is young but the rest? aaaarghhh

4:07 am

give yourself a break :)

4:07 am

unfortunately, when I was young and healthy, I never had a garden. This one is my first

4:08 am

my mind is around 25 I think...

4:08 am

hahah

4:08 am

how long have you had it ruby?

4:08 am

it will be 14 yrs in November, but I designed it and had it planted, at least the trees and shrubs the year before we moved, during the house renovations

4:09 am

we were still in Miami and coming over a couple of times a year, even before we were married

4:10 am

I can understand you are proud of it...but maybe youneed to have your practical head reassess....

4:10 am

there was virtually no garden -- just some shrubbery, 2 little maples, a couple of big pine trees and a mock cherry

4:11 am

I have a guy who comes occasionally to do the heavy stuff, but men can't seem to understand the difference between weeds and good plants, and too much gets trampled when he or my husband try to get into the borders

4:11 am

it is a really lovely garden - all in shades of pink, salmon, red, violet, blue and a little white for punctuation.

4:12 am

sort of an English garden via Martha Stewart, my ego ideal!

4:12 am

a lot of hard work there ruby, and I understand about the mlen and weeds ....though DH is getting better at distinguishing lol

4:12 am

no yellow or orange

4:12 am

sounds delightful Ruby

4:13 am

you want to be Martha Stewart?Jail sentence as well?

4:13 am

we also put in a fish pond with a fountain in the middle which has antiqued itself with moss and algae.

4:13 am

and the 23 tiny goldfish we put in 10 years ago now number hundreds, some more than a foot long!

4:13 am

I love water...so I am envious of that

4:14 am

it is a great environment for birds and tightly fenced, so food for the dogs, too. And we don't use any insecticides

4:14 am

so safe for the dogs* (am I losing what little mind I have left? hahah)

4:15 am

that makes it even more hard work...but I agree with not using them

4:15 am

that makes it even more hard work...but I agree with not using them

4:15 am

I just don't use the apples which are probably wormy and icky

4:16 am

I don't mind insects and there are no mosquitoes because of the bats in the cliffs above us

4:16 am

I didn't think the dog ate the birds!

4:16 am

lol....

4:17 am

I think either a cat or one of the foxes who lives in the field above us ate a bird the other day because I found a pile of feathers, no feet or anything

4:17 am

well unfortunately that is nature for you

4:17 am

we even had an exotic pigeon drinking and bathing in the fountain three days last week

4:18 am

I don't mind; it is all very interesting for a city girl like me

4:18 am

and we have very cute field mice (long hairs) living under the bird feeder, very cute

4:18 am

sounds a little like paradise ruby:)

4:19 am

we had moles the first couple of years (or voles, I don't know the difference) who made tunnels, but they seem to be gone

4:19 am

pretty close, kalia. I am very lucky that we found this place when we did

4:20 am

and we have a lake view as well. Do you have GoogleEarth? look up Annecy and then go around the SE side of the lake and you will see Veyrier

4:20 am

I know Annecy ruby...lovely place

4:20 am

we are 15 mins away

4:20 am

I used to work for Salomon...

4:21 am

when were you there? It is relatively obscure, I think, at least for Americans

4:21 am

you're kidding! The Salomon mansion is in Veyrier!

4:21 am

we found the area by accident

4:21 am

About 10 years ago, I used to go there for financial meetings etc

4:22 am

that is too funny

4:22 am

no not kidding...I think they have sold out now,

4:22 am

frequently when I say Annecy, people think I'm saying Nancy

4:22 am

yes, they have

4:22 am

Atomic I think

4:23 am

I worked for them for 10 years...they became part of Adidas while I I there..

4:23 am

I think competition from China became too stiff and French labor is no joke

4:23 am

do you still ski?

4:24 am

and then the mettings switched to Neuremberg....

4:24 am

I don't ski at all ruby

4:24 am

well badly

4:24 am

we used to ski In Austria, one of the reasons we chose eastern France, but after two neighbors had severe ski accidents, we gave it up. And one of them later died because of it

4:25 am

I was a very cautious skier and always skied with a teacher, not for lessons, but for protection because I am small. But it got to be too scary with too many people and snowboards. If somebody had crashed into me, I would have been killed

4:26 am

ouch....my son is a skier, he skied for the army until he hurt his back and had to have ops on it...he still skis, but doesn't race anymore

4:26 am

skied for the army -- how wonderful! He must be something!

4:26 am

my son hates the snowboarders, (well not hate, you know) say that they don't seem to appreciate how dangerous they can be!

4:27 am

that's how we feel; they should have their own mountains, not be allowed to use the same ones as skiers!

4:28 am

I have to go make lunch. This was a lovely chat, thank you.

4:29 am

If you would like to see photos of garden, dogs, etc., I would be happy to send them

4:29 am

oops...love chatting Ruby, time for me to go too...see you later :)

4:29 am

bye

4:29 am

that would be nice Ruby...I'll dig out that recipe and send it then you will have my email

4:53 am

good morning all

morning all...

4:54 am

morning FFG

4:58 am

dreaded red box of doom

5:04 am

ah, that's better

5:11 am

morning, all. had a visit with my mother yesterday. Despite being in pain, her spirits were very strong, and she has a lot of emotional support. She is very thankful for the many prayers in her behalf.

5:12 am

hi Angelsong, how wonderful she feels that strong.

5:15 am

I fed her some ice chips with a spoon, and asked her, "how many times have you done this for me?"...she said, "I can't count that high!"

5:15 am

:) that is so beautiful.

5:16 am

in all of this, she has drawn very near to God, which is a huge comfort to me.

5:16 am

may it bring both of you comfort and peace

hello all :)

5:26 am

hey mrP :)

hi sprite et al :))

i am just about to load a series of pics to my FB of my trip to Sydney today

5:28 am

was it a good trip? And have you heard back anything from your charges against the football man and the prick's other 'friends'?

yes, he received his papers today

we have everything secure now... all the house is equipped

5:29 am

ah that is good! I hope it will calm or at least slow him down a bit

he will be very upset, but what I have against him will get him in a lot of trouble... and he will know it once he has read it!

I just want peace for my family, and can only get if via the courts and police now

so so sad :(

5:30 am

it would be nice if for now he is too busy saving his own ass to have time to harass you guys

5:31 am

Hi Everyone (( hugs to all ))

5:31 am

hi Norma :)

5:31 am

Hi sprite

hi norma! (hugs)

5:32 am

Hi mrp

he will be eating his own ass after I am done

5:32 am

yeah I bet you want peace. I hope this brings it a little closer.

5:32 am

*grin* Now that doesn't sound very peaceful :P

5:33 am

What a lovely picture mrp .....

5:37 am

I am wondering, mrP... is anyone in your family good at drawing?

yes sprite, my daughter and I are good at drawing

I will post the pic of our wedding photo tomorrow of the same place 15 years ago!!

5:39 am

I have a suggestion... you could turn this whole story of the prick into a series of cartoons. Change names and too recognisable details. When it is all over, publish and sell it. It has all the features of a bestselling thing if you can put humor into it.

5:40 am

might buy you back some of the money this costs... and it is a subtle yet crashing revenge on the prick.

5:40 am

that sounds a brilliant idea sprite, the prick needs to be shown as the slug he is ...#

5:42 am

I keep seeing this guy coming back to the next harassment... no matter the barricades... restraining orders... police on his ass... court cases pending... and yet he keeps on doing the next bad thing. There is something comical in it, with him as the incredible dumbass.

abso-friggin-lutely !!

I can put it up around the neighbourhood

they can't prove we put it up.

5:44 am

You could post it on FB and then the world would see what a slug he is

5:44 am

wait until it is all over, though :) But you and your daughter making the drawings could be good for all of you too :)

indeed norma

he is a slug... perfect description... prick slug

after 12 sept. he has nothing

5:45 am

Don't you think that is being unkind to slugs lol

5:45 am

picture him as a slug in the drawings

well, I don't know of any prickslugs... so no... not really

i will draw his as a big prick!!

5:45 am

Well you can't portray him as a prick you would get arrested lol

the prick I have in mind wouldn't! LOL :))

5:46 am

lol

5:46 am

lol

Prick Man! nanananananah! Prick Maaaaaaaaannnnn!

5:46 am

with a side kick little dick

5:47 am

I like the slug idea. It is like a prick in totally inflated condition.

5:47 am

I like that idea ivesy

5:47 am

hi ivesy :)

he will be furious reading the two full pages of very reduced info I have about him... all backed up by witnesses... he will be so ropeable it isn't even worth thinking of the consequences!!

5:47 am

*deflated

5:47 am

lol..thnks.norma.. good morning all

yeah, prick man and little dick

perfectly acceptable in the 50's!!

will draw it in the era of the 50's!

5:48 am

I can't wait to see the pictures

5:48 am

oh that would be fun! You could even put the story into rhyming.

with *kapoow* in it for a chin hit!

5:49 am

(I'll gladly help if necessary,lol)

oh yeah sprite, we will have a ball or two (hehehe) with this one!

5:49 am

heres prickman and little dick, taking shots with tiny sticks

5:51 am

it is great that you can laugh about it for a change

5:51 am

could even be healing... for you and yours, not for him, grinnnnnn

and their motto could be ' pindick bugf**ker'!

5:52 am

hehehe yes, from that movie... forgot the name.

excuse me ((cough, cough)), somthing go caught in my nasal hair!

5:52 am

... ladies ... I hate to be a spoil sport ... but you're getting way to enthusiastic about this idea ... as much fun as it seems ... please check it with your lawyer Mr.P. before letting it get anywhere public like facebook (or at least get jmc's opinion) ... I know it's fun ... and meant to lift your spirits ... but I wouldn't want to give the bad guy any evidence that might support his defence ...

there is nothing out there dos

5:52 am

no that is why I said, wait until it is all over

5:53 am

and hi doseffing, very good of you to point it out, it is important

and facebook is his domain, have evidence from there against him, but not my area of 'below the belt

5:53 am

If you change the names and places ... everyone else will know it is him

he is a cobra vasectomy... nothing more than a 'belt' now

his wife went for it on facebook against me, with members of the football committee... and I have all the proof printed out! with her name on it! perfect storm this case

5:56 am

well, it is totally allowed to make those cartoon series now, mrP! As long as you keep it inside da house, it cannot hurt.

they have no idea what I have... I have evidence that he told a friend of mine (who he didn't know was a friend) that he 'got me back' for the fire at his house... he is so screwed! he will be arrested after the case goes to court, cause the magistrate will make sure of it

5:58 am

mrp ... what started all this agro??

5:58 am

we all keep our fingers crossed, mrP

he is so stupid, he took a piece of paper, stuck it on the tv and wrote on it 'paperview'

5:58 am

lol

he is so stupid, his tv was stolen and he ran after the robbers yelling, 'you forgot the remote'!!

5:59 am

lol

he is so stupid, he trips over his wireless phone!

6:00 am

mrP is on a roll, lol

he is so stupid, he put money in a parking meter and waited for a gumball to come out

he is so stupid, he got run over by a parked car!!

6:01 am

but Norma wonders how it all started, mrP

he is so stupid, he sat on the TV and watched the couch!!

he is so stupid, he stares for hours at a carton of orange juice cause it says 'concentrate'

he is so stupid, instead of taking the 44 bus, he took the 22 bus twice instead

he is so stupid, he took the pepsi challenge and chose Jiff!

shall I go on!??

6:03 am

nah... we got the point, lol. Maybe you could answer Norma now ;)

oh sorry norma... what did you want to know?? sorry hun

6:04 am

How it all started??

oh, what started this???

a little fu**er of a dog and a really bad nasty idiot owner... the prick.

isn't it always the way... something stupid and little that we tried to solve amicably, and he went all psycho on my a$$

6:05 am

what did the dog do??

all cause it cost him $$$

6:08 am

Hey gang,! Hugs mrp

6:08 am

No bad dogs .... just bad owners ..... be back later time to sort dinner ... see you all later

6:08 am

hiya chic :)

6:08 am

bye Norma, have a good sorting :)

6:09 am

Howdy, sprite

6:09 am

now I wonder too... what DID the dog do?

norma, doesn't matter what the dog did (besides chase my car for over 2km, jump in my car, try to root my dog, live at my house for 3 weeks, get into the yard, pee on my front door, and we asked them very NICELY to come and get their dog!! they live 600 mt away and they knew, but he didn't care! he says to me... 'next time the dog is on the road, run it over... next time the dog jumps in your car, drive it down the Gorge and dump it. I don't give a F about the dog... do what you want ... I don't care... call the pound, I hate the dog, get rid of it'.

6:10 am

omg... poor dog

apparently, his wife didn't agree with his view after we got the pound to pick up the dog

6:10 am

What a plonker...

6:11 am

but she didn't miss the dog enough to bring her to action earlier? Sorry, not convincing.

6:11 am

He sounds mentally unstable

then come the threats... "You biyaitch! I am going to get you, you have cost me over $650 and I had to drive 80km to get it... i am going to get you, you Fing bitch, you better watch out, and keep that dog of yours close, I am going to get you and your dog..."

such a charmer really?? don't you think?

6:12 am

mrp roll on the 12th ...... now must sort dinner poof

he is totally psychotic and obsessed with me

hi chic :) what a lovely conversation to come in on

6:13 am

very true, chic. I hope he will be sentenced to a mental hospital, I think some form of mental illness is the only explanation for behaviour like his.

6:13 am

Hello all

6:13 am

hi sheila!

6:13 am

Wanted a St George flag. How do I change it?

this goes to court on 16th August... read the papers... thank goodness!

6:14 am

change your nationality to England, I think... or Welsh or whatever again st george stands for, sorry I don't remember :)

6:15 am

Hopefully

yep, change it to english

6:16 am

Eureka

6:16 am

you did it!

6:16 am

More straightforward than finding words!!!!!

6:17 am

too true, lol

and some of these words are not english!

6:17 am

we can cuss in french today for sure

6:18 am

No! French swear word

6:18 am

No! French swear word

6:18 am

,,, me5/14

6:18 am

It's harder to prove the psycho angle, I think but sounds like you have enough evidence. Sounds like he is enjoying the media attention.

6:18 am

*giggle*

6:19 am

and we can talk japanese too today, for the 2nd generation of immigrants.

he has no media... but I do!

haven't used that yet, and it will come.

6:21 am

be sure to stay within the boundaries of both the law and civility, mrP, until after the court case is closed, though.

I am a very respected member of the community blah blah blah, fundraising, blah blah blah (not trying to make it not important), however, he is no one... he has the history of violence, I have the history of many magazine articles with my children and volunteer work. good luck to him

oh course sprite... I am a lady after all

6:21 am

Good advice, sprite

6:22 am

oh that is wonderful to set up your characters... makes your case more convincing for certain.

6:22 am

once, twice,, three times a lady, mrP :)

6:23 am

Lexing, mrp?

ooooh! thank you sprite! ((hugs))

ok chic, coming!!

6:24 am

Thanks, hon

i am stuck with 40 to go... darn it!!

6:25 am

I might be able to help, I have 13 left

i am going to collect some more of this chicken, if there is any left (ha!) and brb!!

6:25 am

See y'all later ciao

6:26 am

bye chic, have fun. bye mrP, hurry back

oh, i just found a timtam.... how sad.... for the timtam!

bbs !!

6:30 am

my first timtamless day again here

oh hunny!! am so so sorry!! how tragic! will send you white ones!

6:33 am

fireflies :) Cute grid. Bye all, have a lovely evening and/or a peaceful day. *hugs*

6:34 am

lol mrP, don't be silly! They cost a fortune to send. You have better use for your pecuniae!

pecuniae?? what is that??

is that a code for pads and tampons?? LOL!!

6:35 am

dough... money... *grin*

6:36 am

code for pads is: hammocks for ill pussies

as I now am a 'barren' woman... I have money to burn.! except the she child is now fertile! eeck!!

ah, got it!

6:37 am

hahahaha we mothers go through several more stages than science realises. Yes, my daughter too. Scary, isn't it!

ill pussies!! hahahahaha!!!!

I just wanna die! explaining pregnancy AGAIN, and getting the rolling eyes!! LOL!

6:38 am

can anyone explain to me why we cant have 'deodorise'

cause rolin, this is a discriminatory grid!!

6:39 am

lol yes! And my son has a very steady girlfriend... I keep explaining and they keep rolling THEIR eyes

6:39 am

fair point...

6:39 am

very good question, rolin

only accepts z in the s place.

6:39 am

outrageous.. and its a 9 letter word that i found all by my self...hummmmfff

6:40 am

well you DID it, rolin. You outsmarted the grid. WTG.

English is obviously not english in this grid!

6:41 am

ok I really have to go, bye again all :)

hang on, how many times you using that e??

see ya sprite!

nah, you got beat rolin... can't use the e twice

6:43 am

... it could be that english words can be americanized ... but american words cannot be anglicised

6:43 am

mrp... dont need to use the 'e' twice...

greetings peeps

OK... deodorise is still used with a z in dictionary and enable... so so sad

americanised... wash my hands of that

hi jean :)

what's the def. for the 9?

deodorise is a totally accpeted word

what 9?

de8, 45 is there

de8 means mockery

ty madam got it

ok, I meant 8

np jean :)

6:53 am

re

7:16 am

Hi and good morning

7:16 am

if someone could impart the stats for the f?

7:17 am

fi 7/40

7:17 am

ty Molly and hi

7:17 am

Hi Bich

7:19 am

got the word

7:20 am

Good for you!

7:21 am

time for breakfast

7:31 am

Ooh! I found the 8 all by myself!!!!! (and judging by the chog, maybe I am all by myself)

7:31 am

morning, all, anyway :-)

7:35 am

nbs (still working on nbt)

7:35 am

snorer

7:36 am

crap. PB for me. I'll bet it's lonely in there, and probably no treats either :-(

7:39 am

hello. If you like, I'll keep you company sue. I put many words in the wrong place this AM and then slunk away

7:40 am

my new housekeeper started today and she is wonderful! yay

7:40 am

hi, ruby! Glad to hear about the housekeeper - that should be one burden off your shoulders, anyway!

7:42 am

yes. The temp worked hard but only a few hours a week and this house gets very dirty, very fast, with two long-haired dogs and a husband, none of whom wipes his feet

7:43 am

she actually can walk here, lives in the bottom part of the village near to the lake.

7:43 am

we are higher up and just see the lake, which, for me at least, is better

7:44 am

she's young, 42, and loves the hours of this job, 8-12, 4 days.

7:45 am

how are you doing, sue? when is your road trip?

7:46 am

I am good, ruby. I will have to run out in a couple of minutes, though, seeing the podiatrist this morning (need new orthotics as old ones are falling apart), then court this afternoon, then we will leave late this afternoon or early evening.

7:47 am

lovely to be taking a road trip with your son. I used to do it a lot when my boy was in his teens and it was a great pleasure.

7:47 am

you don't mind night-driving?

7:48 am

And I know what you mean about the house getting dirty - my dog also has long hair (and is large) and I have two cats as well. And nobody (including the hordes of friends my son brings in) wipes their feet, or anything else.

7:48 am

it will be fun, ruby, and he's looking forward to spending a bit of time with his grandfather as well.

7:49 am

right now, I'm looking for a groomer for Ruby who is very stinky. Most groomers here won't do chows, even when assured that mine is a gentle soul who has never bitten or even shown her teeth (except for the occasional silly smile) to anyone

7:50 am

it is just too hard for me to wash her as she is large and strong, weighs about 75 lbs. and doesn't enjoy being bathed

7:50 am

and impossible to get her dry

7:52 am

if I don't see you again, have a wonderful time, especially with the court mess behind you

7:59 am

ah yes, Sera is about 70 pounds as well but fortunately she doesn't mind Frank grooming her (except she doesn't like the hair on her feet being trimmed, so she looks a little odd)

8:01 am

ok, I am off to the doctor - will be on later, then off and on for the next week.

8:03 am

Bye Sue, Hi Ruby.

Morning all; how many words today, thanks

8:08 am

168

8:19 am

good morning everyone:)

8:19 am

clue for singleton F??

8:19 am

or stats. :-)

8:19 am

anyone have a clue for he fi7 please?

8:20 am

fi 7/40, more flame-y, alternate spelling (I think)

8:20 am

ouch - lol

8:20 am

wolvie looks like we are working on the same word lol

8:20 am

oh good - ty Molly

8:20 am

yeppo cwe. :-)

8:20 am

10:39 am

How long has it been for you?

10:41 am

It was a year in May. I'm glad you have a friend to spend time with. I find it easier to celebrate a life and times, than to mourn.

10:43 am

Jill is the perfect one to celebrate with...She's experienced a lot of hardship, but remains so positive...

10:43 am

You are in good hands then.

10:43 am

I've also known her since we were about 9 years old, so words aren't always necessary to communicate...

12:21 pm

you train the program by reading to it,and it will learn your accent and inflections

12:22 pm

but anyways.if you want more info ,it can be found online

12:23 pm

I've heard of it, crossy, and people I know have spoken well of it

12:24 pm

it is very,very good sue,but reaches peak effectiveness at around 3 months of use

12:24 pm

it must be trained,but it keeps track of who is using it,and will keep multiple user files

12:25 pm

We have Dragon on our EHR so that someday we could dictate and have notes typed.

12:25 pm

it is easy enough scrabbs,i dictate letters with the thing when i am bored

12:26 pm

I will be back and forth here, in between patients. BBS

12:26 pm

but my file is not as trained as my sons

12:28 pm

and i must head to work,but before i go i give you crossys tidbit of the day!!!

Oh poor Eva. Doctors asking about do not resuscitate are scary. Hope the procedure is going well.

1:43 pm

Eva... been there. My prayers are with you and your family.

1:44 pm

Don't worry too much about the DNR thing. They HAVE to ask, and it does not imply a lack of optimism on the part of the hospital staff.

1:46 pm

hello nrkii, nice to see you, haven't seen you in a while

1:47 pm

I'm on a work conference call, and trying to pay attention. Babble is less distracting than other things. :)

1:54 pm

why can you not rerinse something!

1:56 pm

when my mother did the laundry in the old wringer washer, she put whites through a second ri5 that had rennets blue added to it

1:56 pm

I have issues with that too Flosey.

1:56 pm

ty Molly

1:57 pm

I reri5 when I forget to add the fabric softner.

1:57 pm

ah yes

or a little bag with blue stuff in it....I still use Mrs. Stewart's liquid bluing ! hi Flosey and Molly :-)

1:59 pm

yes, they came in little blue cubes

Flosey.... remember Fels Naptha soap ??? Lovely soft blue flakes with the loveliest scent

1:59 pm

yes, I remember that

They quit making it many years ago :-(

1:59 pm

I remember a bar soap my mom use to buy, we had to shave it for Monday wash

2:00 pm

I love the smell of Ivory Snow. I used to wash baby clothes in it.

I must change my profile pic... still showing a "bad hair day".... or "no hair day" LOL

you needed fairly soft water for ivory snow though... it used to scum in hard water.

2:01 pm

I keep a file (amongst my computer pics) of flowers and animals for mondays themes

2:01 pm

sometimes they get recycled

yes Flosey... mom used to shave the soap and make sort of a melted, gummy mess

2:02 pm

so glad we don't have to go through that!

messy concoction, which was added as the washing loads progressed.

You are so right !!.... I had a wringer washer for the first 10 years of our marriage. I just shake my head when the younger generation complain about "laundry woes"....I even remind my own kids to appreciate the ease of the chore these days !!

2:05 pm

I used laundramat first couple of years, then when my son was born Dad bought HIM an automatic washer which was a blessing to us

hubby home from golfing... going to make some lunch now, so be back later.

2:06 pm

bye for now diane

bye bye :-)

2:08 pm

When I think how easy people have it when it comes to household chores as opposed to years ago, I laugh when people say they "don't have time".

2:11 pm

well, we are now living in a house that is too big for the 2 of us - until family visits!

2:12 pm

well, I found the right time to jump in - I also remember bluing, starching, wringers, etc.

2:12 pm

hi everybody

2:12 pm

hi JBV

2:13 pm

me too

2:13 pm

Hi All

2:13 pm

hi hego

2:13 pm

and at the risk of sounding like one those (walked in the snow both ways uphill stories) I do remember the days of the laundromat, when my son was a baby I pushed the stroller with one hand, dragging the laundry cart behind me with the other (until we got our own washing machine!)

2:14 pm

did that too

2:14 pm

now I think it's hard work to go downstairs with a load of laundry! LOL

2:15 pm

2:16 pm

I would love that! a laundry chute -we had one in our former house

2:16 pm

lol

2:17 pm

I have been kicking myself for not including it in plans when we built this house

2:17 pm

Now in senior housing, laundry room is on the first floor. Much better.

2:17 pm

2:18 pm

Ah, the things we never think of, Flosey.

The laundry room should be on whatever floor the bedrooms are. Period.

2:23 pm

2:23 pm

true Molly

2:23 pm

Mine is on the same floor as the master suite.

2:23 pm

Well, I've had a washing machine hose leak in the basement once and it was a mess - hate to think of the damage if the leak was on the second floor, though

2:24 pm

I did too jbv, was home alone at the time

2:24 pm

I've had one leak on the main floor, and it was a mess. Thank God for insurance.

2:24 pm

2:25 pm

Let it go JBV

2:25 pm

2:55 pm

I like Diane's singing :-)

2:55 pm

... New Amsterdamites also lost out to the British in a naval battle commanded by the Duke of York

lyrics by Jimmy Kennedy and music by Nat Simon.... but similar to Irving Berlin's "Puttin' on the Ritz "

2:57 pm

such a good researcher.

2:57 pm

ur clues anyone pls

3:02 pm

oh sorry flosey i didn't think that it even changed i will fix it now!

3:02 pm

Read Shogun a REALLY long time ago.

3:04 pm

I learn a lot playing this game by looking up things like "old name for Tokyo" when clues are given that way. Google is a beautiful thing. : )

3:04 pm

gotta love Google

3:05 pm

It cracks me up when people post "I don't know the old name for Tokyo" or "I've never read Shogun". Look it up for goodness sakes.

3:07 pm

:-)

3:08 pm

What are the stats for the f please? And the 8 please?

3:09 pm

fi7/40

3:09 pm

3:09 pm

fi7/40

3:09 pm

Hi JW

3:09 pm

Thanks...are they normal words?

3:10 pm

Hi MollyL...how are you today?

3:10 pm

the f is normal

3:10 pm

got the 8 thanks

not everyone has enquiring/inquiring minds Molly. I for one, DO, and I must say I've wasted/spent a lot of time feeding mine..... NOW, if I could only remember half of what I look up!

3:10 pm

... f is a comparative which is a bit unusual

3:10 pm

Holy crap. I'm glad I'm not heavily invested in the stock market.

3:11 pm

... d is normal ... just not commonly used

3:11 pm

Don't tell me Molly.

3:11 pm

I do too Diane. My Mom used to send me to the encyclopedia all the time, to look up things I didn't know.

3:11 pm

Got it, thanks doseff, your clue helped.

3:11 pm

I'm srill nauseous from last time I looked.

3:11 pm

Still that is.

3:13 pm

wow even my exxon stock is taking a hit--hope i can afford this kitchen!

3:13 pm

People used to give only obscure clues on here, and did not like when people gave easier clues.

3:14 pm

*turns on the electric lights to save money*

3:14 pm

i like a mix sometimes i need more help than other times

3:15 pm

That's true jmc. Sometimes, things are too obscure, and google doesn't help.

we had the old Lincoln Library at home when I was growing up... it filled in as a booster seat at the table when needed. I have the complete set of World Book Encyclopedia... ( 1972 and somewhat obsolete now lol ) and scads of almanacs.... I haven't bought a reference book since I got my computer in 2002.

3:15 pm

At least people don't give many clues, like stick letter, curved letter, etc.

3:16 pm

sometimes I type in the dumbest thing I can think of and it works.

3:16 pm

A true Babbler, hego.

3:16 pm

i still have a world book set--sometimes browsing them is fun

3:17 pm

lol Jee

I've given them to various grandkids to look at too... but must get rid of them as I plan to spend the next TEN years downsizing my possessions LOL

3:18 pm

i have been throwing out and giving away for the last six months to prepare for the remodel and I still have way too much stuff

3:18 pm

it would help if my son would take his crap

3:20 pm

And he's got that nice, big, new house? Light a fire under his behind JMC. : )

3:22 pm

he left town a couple of days after buying it--it was just a weird time for us both

3:22 pm

i intend for him to take it (or i will deliver it) when he gets back to town

3:37 pm

3:38 pm

3:39 pm

4:21 pm

There are walk-in places around here at those rates, JMC, but I've heard terrible things about them.

4:22 pm

well then main thing with walkin places is you make sure they are sterilizing their equipment

4:23 pm

i would say the worst thing that happened to me was a short trim that was too short

4:23 pm

My boss went to one once, and they slashed the crap out of her big toe.

4:24 pm

mistakes happen everywhere

4:26 pm

help with the first de7 please

5:26 pm

I don't get many and have not had a problem

5:26 pm

how are you doing red, how is work coming along?

I think it is only an occasional issue, but I guess I also dislike strangers touching my feet.

5:27 pm

they masage lotion into my feet and legs. it is very soothing

I'm well Peri, You? work is making me really tired, I was out of the 12 hr shift practice!

5:28 pm

glad you are well Peri!

5:29 pm

"What About Bob?" always makes me laugh.

6:43 pm

if u can get 'folks" its funny.. tom selleck hmmm

6:43 pm

"The Goodbye Girl" (The Marsha Mason/Richard Dreyfuss one) is a happy/romance. "That's Entertainment" gives you lots of happy musical numbers.

6:44 pm

also, dave is good. roommates is cute

6:44 pm

folks?

6:44 pm

yes, older movie, but funny.

6:45 pm

with tom selleck?

6:47 pm

if the bleeding stays stopped overnight, it sounds like things may generally be finished. if it starts up again, emergency surgery, it is...

6:47 pm

well i will hold your dad in the Light evan

6:48 pm

roommates with peter falk? i have never seen that one

6:48 pm

I'll be hoping for the best Eva.

7:11 pm

I don't want anyone here to do that... likelihood is, they would not be on my side

7:12 pm

7:49 pm

*Sigh* There are a lot of very disturbing things happening in the world. *Lights a candle for hope*

7:51 pm

Yes, Molly. Without hope we are all lost. I'll light another one.

7:58 pm

7:58 pm

set curfew and anyone out after curfew....done..set up night court..process...

7:59 pm

and those peeps can be put in chain gangs to clean up the mess they made

8:01 pm

What a complete waste of energy. An organized, peaceful protest brings about change. This crap just pisses people off.

8:08 pm

4 letter blocks are missing from my grid...has anyone else had this problem? Any suggestions?

8:09 pm

8:10 pm

I've tried exit and reenter, and restarting computer. Was this way yesterday too.

FINALLY -- NBT

8:23 pm

WOOOT !

8:23 pm

and past halfway in my frantic monkeying -- I had started quite a bit earlier.

8:25 pm

i am down to final 13

8:25 pm

And now... time to fold more laundry and think of something creative for supper. Now that I am out of grad school and have had time to shop I am appalled at the price of foods -- so have been reluctant to "stock up" much. Which means... old mother hubbard needs to look in the back corners of the cupboard for tonight's meal. *sigh* And then tomorrow I have to nag at people who had offered to be references, so that I am fully employable ASAP.

8:25 pm

go beth go!

8:26 pm

*sticks head in briefly*

8:26 pm

**hugs sue on the way out** see you-all later! *poof*

8:26 pm

hey sue!

8:27 pm

Hey! We are on the Indiana toll road on a supper break

8:28 pm

And time to hit the road again, bbl

8:28 pm

are you going somewhere or coming home

8:29 pm

see you later sue!

8:30 pm

Whoosh! Missed Sue. She's on her way to visit her Dad, Beth.

8:32 pm

Ahhh shes going to be near me then, i believe her dad lives in morris co nj - so do I

8:34 pm

I have not been around to catch much of peoples comings and goings, we are having a crisis with my moms health so i have been "commuting" back and forth from albany ny for the last 3 weeks

8:34 pm

Aw Beth, sorry to hear about your Mom. Prayers out for her.

8:36 pm

Thanks molly, she really need s them

8:37 pm

How far of a commute is that for you?

8:38 pm

depending on the ny thruway traffic between 2 1/2 to 4 hours, I am going up fridays, and coming home for monday work

8:39 pm

Wow, that is a lot of driving for you. You must be worn out.

8:41 pm

it is very difficult. When she stabilizes a bit more i will cut back, but there are family issues ( doesn't every family have some???) so if i am not there i will not be in the loop to know what is going on with her

8:43 pm

Well, you take good care of yourself Beth. This kind of stuff is difficult and can wear you down.

8:46 pm

thats the plan molly, but you know how it is - easier said that=n done

8:46 pm

9:44 pm

or is it the thread count word...

9:45 pm

Hey Cos..have you seen a show on Hulu called "The Booth At The End"?

9:45 pm

nope. closer the first time. the last or final think.

9:49 pm

hot tub time machine was okay

9:49 pm

9:51 pm

*serves with fresh homemade plum sauce* :-D

9:52 pm

:-D

9:52 pm

papa johns the works monday special. 8.99

9:52 pm

You might like it Cos. A supernatural kind of "make a deal with the devil" kind of story.

9:52 pm

ah, inexpensive but filling. good choice

9:52 pm

i am at home with kenyan hosting duties TO but at least no one is staying inmy house until Sunday night

9:53 pm

hmm thanks ill check it out!

9:53 pm

i rented insidious and red riding hood last night. insidious creeped the heck out of me and red riding hood was a great romantic mystert

9:53 pm

mystery

9:53 pm

no this is the colony of Washington, DC's flag stiddie

9:53 pm

ooh! up to 102 words!

9:53 pm

is red riding hood creepy?

they had kenyan food at fest but it sounded ike indian - samosas for one

9:54 pm

rofl jmc! *facepalm* I really should have known that...

9:54 pm

no. its a good fairy tale/mystery

9:54 pm

a girl torn between two boys.. while at the same time trying to find out who the werewolf is. theres no blood or gore.

9:54 pm

did you know that in heraldry those stars are called "mullets" -- I just learned this. So the flag of DC has mullets...

9:55 pm

no blood or gore, cos? then what's the point?

9:55 pm

there are lots of indians in kenya--they were brought in to build the railway and stayed--so somosas are common there

9:56 pm

it is the crest of George Washington

9:56 pm

normally i'd agree but the story was good. Insidious didnt have either but it was creepy. i watched it in the dark alone and my cat jumped on me and i screamed

9:56 pm

i am looking for feel good movies

9:57 pm

feel good movies..hm... beastly

9:57 pm

i do not watch films in which something scary is connected with children

9:57 pm

I haven't watched insidious.

are these movies for you or for guests?

9:57 pm

If it's the crest of George Washington then it must have Masonic roots. All the Founding Fathers were Masons.

9:58 pm

Tom and I watched a good movie the other day about a man who exists in someone's mind and needs to learn something to save the city. trying to remember the name.

9:58 pm

that looks interesting

9:58 pm

Tom is looking it up, he keeps my brains for me.

9:58 pm

it is his family crest so not masonic

9:58 pm

molly whats that movie called again im on hulu now

9:58 pm

no molly -- it harks back to the early middle ages when the family first got lands

9:59 pm

It's a Hulu series Cos, The Booth At The End.

9:59 pm

but you are right most of the founding fathers were masons which allowed them to hold secret meetings on the second floor and plan the revolution

9:59 pm

it starred jake gyllenhaal and is called "The Source" -- a little suspenseful, and has a strong military vibe, but we really enjoyed it.

i had a very odd thing happen to me today. and it will teach me to chare my phone every night.

10:00 pm

*waits to hear about TO's adventure*

actually i charged it but it did not hold the charge all day though i did not make any calls

10:00 pm

i almost rented the source tonight. i went with season of the witch instead

not an adventure, just perplexing

10:01 pm

Oops...family crest. Ignore my mason comments.

10:02 pm

when cell phone batteries fail, they very suddenly don't hold a charge.

10:02 pm

has happened to me several times, perhaps you just need to replace the battery.

10:02 pm

i am a take it or leave it type of guy with the telephone.i consider it nothing but a nessacery evil and let the answering machine pick it up..if i wish to answer,i will,if not i will not

10:03 pm

also, sometimes tom will set my cellphone to "3G" and I don't realize it so it keeps looking for that BIG signal even though our area doesn't have that kind of coverage...

10:03 pm

when a phone keeps searching for a signal it runs the battery down very quickly

10:03 pm

hey cross! we had pancakes, but didn't have bacon tonight. Although... I am still hungry....

10:03 pm

hi all

10:03 pm

hmm the source i found is a documentary about the beat generation with johnny depp

10:04 pm

unless,it is the president or the queen calling,i am sure anything that is viatal will call back eventually..

10:04 pm

hey jes!

10:04 pm

this video just made my day LOL!! http://tinyurl.com/3p6godu

10:04 pm

lol stidmama

10:04 pm

sorry, tom told me wrong... it's called "Source Code"

10:05 pm

bonsoir, une! comment-allez vous?

10:05 pm

twas good but really sad

10:05 pm

hey, stiddy!

10:05 pm

strangely enough stidmama,i never serve bacon with pancakes

10:05 pm

how's the critter business, jes?

10:05 pm

that IS strange!

i parked carefully to be behind the pole where i was sure the sign had hadnicap parking ith the arrow on the polepointing forard.

10:05 pm

oh cross! you are missing a treat. I like to eat the bacon last and use it to grab the last yummy maple syrup *drools all over keyboard*

10:05 pm

going pretty well, stid. currently sans-fosters

10:06 pm

just sent the packrat packing this morning :)

10:06 pm

lol,our bacon has hickory and maple in it already

10:06 pm

:-D good for you jes! enjoy the peace-n-quiet.

10:07 pm

or apple wood and maple

10:07 pm

hmph. cross misses the point. bacon NEVER has enough maple syrup. Actually maple syrup never has enough maple syrup.

10:07 pm

jes, am chuckling and snorting -- next week I'm transporting Basil, who will meet up later in the transport with three puppies: the Duke siblings: Daisy, Luke, and Bo

10:07 pm

I like maple syrup candies. They come in santa shapes and maple leaf shapes, and they are the NICEST treat almost ever.

10:07 pm

lol stidmama..i also love our fresh maple syrples in season

10:08 pm

i agree stid -- those candies are TASTY!

10:08 pm

i only buy it from the mennonites or direct from the sugar shacks in the spring

re7/32 pls

10:08 pm

yum yum yum... *tummy growls LOUDly*

10:09 pm

re7 removes moisture . . . again

10:09 pm

i buy 5 or 6 quart tins and when it is gone,it is gone for another season

10:09 pm

actually this is the funniest thing i have seen lately http://tinyurl.com/3v8sk6z

10:10 pm

10:10 pm

10:11 pm

you mix the syrup with hickory smoked bbq sauce

final re5/12pls?

10:11 pm

10:12 pm

I am getting hungrier and hungrier...

10:12 pm

10:12 pm

etrade made them take it off youtube

10:12 pm

LOL!!

10:13 pm

cross, in my next life I come back not allergic to anything so I can eat all these yummy things!

10:13 pm

what are you allergic to..the meat,the buns? the onions? the butter?

10:14 pm

yes cross -- not the onions, but tom doesn't like onions much. all the rest I can't eat.

10:14 pm

I eat turkey bacon. in small amounts I am okay with poultry.

10:14 pm

okay i am hitting the hay c u all tomorrow

10:15 pm

bye, jmc

10:15 pm

sweet dreams jmc

10:15 pm

not being able to eat bread?? i would be lost!!

10:15 pm

or pork??..omg

10:16 pm

well the bread would hurt me more than then pork

10:16 pm

I eat breads made with other things than wheat. but they are expensive and the mouth-feel is never quite the same.

10:16 pm

ahh the rice bread etc

10:17 pm

here a SMALL loaf of rice bread is 9 dollars!!

r 7 pls?

10:17 pm

yes. passable, palatable, but not quite as chewy. and very expensive. Although, I am starting to learn how to make some pastries so it's less expensive.

10:17 pm

gets unwet again, TO

10:18 pm

i would get a bread maker fast and learn ever bread recipie i could

10:18 pm

we make waffles and pancakes with a nice almond flour now, and that is very tasty.

sorry. did anyone cue that re5/12?

10:18 pm

is not anything from almods very fattening?

10:18 pm

I have a bread maker! he's called tom! He is SO good! *bats eyes at tom*

10:18 pm

That is the deluxe model- right Stid?

10:18 pm

I have an re 5/12 that is re + mafia boss title, and then plural, TO?

10:19 pm

10:19 pm

oh, he is TRES deluxe!

10:19 pm

NICE !!!

ur 7 pls?

10:20 pm

tom is GRINNING!

10:20 pm

em6?

10:20 pm

we are debating a breadmaker,but i am afraid that a fresh loaf ready the second we wake up may in time make me very,very fat

10:21 pm

hey DR -- we are almost done with the summer theater season. LAST opening night on Thursday... final final curtain on Sunday. *exhausted mama look*

10:21 pm

bruce bakes bread for us. it is nice.

10:21 pm

ur + vowel + smelling organ

10:21 pm

maybe get a small one, cross? or find a model that lets you do smaller batches?

ty

10:22 pm

merci bien for that one Une!

10:22 pm

ah, yes and that bruce also sometimes posts his mouth-watering recipes online too.

10:22 pm

thanks, une

10:22 pm

we have never ,ever used a bread maker ( the maker has always been me) so we are treading new ground

10:22 pm

he does. did he post the angel food with stuff idea?

10:23 pm

I can't remember the URL, actually. *shame-faced mama look*

10:24 pm

crossy envisions buyng 100 pound bags of flour and 100 pound brick of yeast....

10:24 pm

whoo! i found the 8 letter word w/o cluing :)

10:24 pm

yw :-)

10:24 pm

heh. me either. brainweevil something.

10:24 pm

we tried the one at Granny's house two decades ago. It was nice, but being mechanical it wasn't as good at the texture -- tom has it down to an art, adding liquids or extra flour to adjust to humidity and temp and such.

10:25 pm

you need a god steamer for the second rise

10:25 pm

there might be more intelligent models nowadays though. I am told technology progresses rather quickly in this brave new world.

10:25 pm

go jes go!

10:25 pm

we used a old vaporizer and some towels

10:25 pm

tom mostly makes sourdough... he has a starter he has been using for about 15 years I think.

10:25 pm

so you whip some cream cheese with some honey. you spread that on angel food cake, and then you put a layer of fresh lime pieces on top of the honeycheese. then you eat it and marvel at the goodness. :)

10:26 pm

hm. that does sound delicious -- especially for a warm afternoon or evening!

10:26 pm

and i am off for the night..tc all and happy babbling

10:26 pm

poink!

10:27 pm

bye, crossy

10:27 pm

sweet dreams (maple syrup dreams?) cross!

10:28 pm

I am going to head out for at least a while, too -- down to 57 which is aobut 25 more than I expected to get!

10:29 pm
