ruby once our scrabble game is done, pls do not start another one. I will start one with you soon.

12:29 pm

12:29 pm

*Watches as people madly scramble for words before the next deluge of red boxes*

12:29 pm

damn!

12:30 pm

And here we go again

12:31 pm

Gah! You jinxed us Molly!

12:31 pm

12:32 pm

Ahem, if you will look back, every time Peri shows up, the red boxes return. : P

12:36 pm

Why, Peri? Why?!

12:36 pm

Ok. I found some excessive server traffic coming from a single IP address, so I blocked it, and all *seems* to be calm on the Babble front now. (fingers crossed)

12:37 pm

Thanks, Dr. G!

12:37 pm

A Babble traffic jam. Weird.

12:37 pm

Wow, Thanks Dr. G-d!!!

12:37 pm

<-- crosses legs...

12:37 pm

12:39 pm

Hi Everyone! A little time to babble before I go golfing

12:39 pm

I'm so sorry for your loss {{zzooz}}

12:40 pm

I wonder if the bad guy who shall remain nameless jammed up the server on purpose....

12:40 pm

((ruby))

12:40 pm

{{annie}}

12:40 pm

Oh no? We have a bad guy?

12:42 pm

ooh, I found the en 8 and 9

12:43 pm

I suppose a single ip address can have more than one user.

12:45 pm

phantom: napalm

12:46 pm

Zooz, pass my deepest comdolences on to your mother. It is awful to lose a child as I know. Tell her that it will get better eventually but there is no time limit on grief.

12:47 pm

Usually, a single IP address is attached to one residence or place of business. If you are the board owner, it's fairly easy to track an IP address.

12:48 pm

Hello Jaxx, Rubes, o-o,Judi, Molly, Annie, Erda, Wolvie, Nicky.... I hope I haven't missed anybody. :-)

12:49 pm

12:54 pm

12:54 pm

{{hego}}

12:54 pm

Good!

12:54 pm

It sounds like everybody has the jitters from the red boxes

12:55 pm

hi Ruby

12:55 pm

*Not jittery*

12:55 pm

Hey Hego :-). Gawd Rubes, were you dancing on glass tables again?

12:56 pm

'lo soods

12:56 pm

She wasn't, soodle. it was a storm

12:56 pm

Ruby beware of people who have photographic memories. They remember the darndest things...capon...

12:56 pm

we had a terrible windstorm more than a week ago and jaxx remembered. I had to pad the table ecause I was afraid the hanging lamp above it would come down

12:56 pm

you are funny and wonderful, molly!!!

12:57 pm

Aww I prefer to think of our Rubes doing a fandango on a tiny glass table.

12:57 pm

me too

12:57 pm

hahah

12:57 pm

I used to have a photographic memory but time dims all things

12:57 pm

me also Jaxx

12:58 pm

I never had to study when I was young.

12:58 pm

and I used to be tall and blonde hahah

12:58 pm

you mean you're not Ruby?

12:59 pm

is it still being worked on mine went out again?

12:59 pm

My memory got me through all the art history courses as I could picture a page in the textbook and recognize slides and retrieve all the info

12:59 pm

neither did I. i once got 93% in an algebra exam and I read my exercise book from cover to cover. Then I sneezed and I lost all the marks after the sneeze

1:00 pm

now, because we wtch so much TV, I can recognize actors by their voices, one or two rooms away

1:01 pm

I have acute hearing too. My late son used to say I could hear a pin drop in a hurricane. never tried it out though.

1:01 pm

*Imagines Ruby doing the hootchie-coo in her butterfly shoes*

1:01 pm

Best to avoid hurricanes.

1:02 pm

Ho do you know about the butterfly shoes, Molly, you must be clairvoyant, too

1:02 pm

It's funny to have such acute hearing with a deaf husband

1:02 pm

You would be surprised at the things I know about mwahahahahaha!!!

1:03 pm

At least you can swear at him and know he can't hear you

1:03 pm

uh oh.....

1:04 pm

If you are that good, Molly, could you please tell me where I left my Kindle? I haven't seen if for weeks....

1:04 pm

I had a friend who used to swear at other drivers with the car window closed and point at his mouth saying "can you read lips?"

1:04 pm

for those who are following my school exploits, it seems that after this law class, I shall be taking a University Writers Craft course(EWC4U) for my final credit:) I pulled a 96% in ENG4C and this allows me to take this course without the fuss of bothering with other tests;))) Bonus is that it is all various forms of creative writing:)

1:05 pm

You will do well in that Crossy.

1:05 pm

Yay for your, Cross!

1:05 pm

When are you going to write your hit novels then, crossy

1:05 pm

:)

1:05 pm

maybe crossy can ghost write my memoirs....

1:05 pm

I do better with creative over structured, that is for sure:)

1:05 pm

Let me know and I will be first in line at the bookshop

1:06 pm

lol. Still a ways to go before my first publication;)

1:07 pm

I am a patient soul, crossy. I will wait

1:07 pm

finished and back i go to the sunny outdoors- hagd all :-)

1:07 pm

1:08 pm

It's the Irish way!

1:08 pm

ch 6 24??

1:09 pm

*Sigh* Has been fired as the ghost writer

1:09 pm

1:09 pm

facts and footnotes were very much a part of my life.

1:09 pm

1:09 pm

2:05 pm

there are joys living with adolescents?

2:05 pm

sometimes my husband and I say, let's enjoy it while it lasts, we will miss it once it is over. And then we look at eachother and go Nahhhhh never.

2:05 pm

you won't.

2:05 pm

hey o-o :) Thanks.

2:05 pm

You will miss your little kids, but not this age.

2:06 pm

I think once they feel ready to strike out on their own, I will enjoy watching them do it, to be honest.

2:07 pm

not seeing those other en's o-o

2:07 pm

me neither so far

2:07 pm

Oh, you may not believe it now, but you will miss them. A lot.

2:07 pm

I found that part anxiety making for me.

2:07 pm

hello Molly. I think my husband will. I think I will love the peace and quiet.

2:08 pm

miss the kids, yes -- miss the teenage angst and rebellion, no

2:08 pm

I hear ya, hego. Same here.

2:08 pm

And I don't just miss my "little kids". I miss the fine young men they came to be. It's always a joy when they drop by to see their Mom.

2:08 pm

I still worry about them like crazy.

2:09 pm

I miss having small children around.

2:09 pm

everybody went and grew up on me.

2:09 pm

ok, must get on with things, see you all later!

2:09 pm

Oh me too Hego.

2:10 pm

do you not see your grandchildren very often, or are they no longer little?

2:10 pm

bye Suze

2:10 pm

ah, the other en words are the same with single consonant

2:10 pm

they grew up too Nan.

2:10 pm

bye sue, all the best to you

2:10 pm

Nan, if I had grandkids I would be around them all the time. *Dreams of grandkids*

2:10 pm

sprite, no

2:10 pm

ty sprite

2:10 pm

double cons.

2:11 pm

lol ok, I found the double ones first

2:11 pm

i am blessed to have both of my sons and the grandkids right here in town

2:11 pm

lol just saw that.

2:11 pm

wow teach, that is nice

2:11 pm

Hego, you must have started pretty young if all your kids and your grandkids are grown.

2:12 pm

had the grandkids from Thurs. through MOnday evening - slept well lat night and still tired today

2:12 pm

all our grandchildren were grown or in their teens when our younger son and his wife decided to have a family. We now have a 4 year old and twin 2 year olds --- takes me 2 days to recover after a 4 day visit!

2:13 pm

oh I believe it! When I have friends visiting with little children, I am beat afterwards too

2:14 pm

Twin 2 year olds. A little scary.

2:15 pm

all my old schoolfriends started much later with children than we. So now that mine are ready to go to college, theirs just enter elementary school.

2:15 pm

yep -- especially when they take off in different directions

2:16 pm

So glad I did it early.

2:16 pm

we will be seeing them next weekend -- looking forward to that!

2:16 pm

I wasn't even early. Just 30, I think.

2:16 pm

Wow, that is like a 12 year difference in childbearing years.

2:17 pm

yes, and they never were interested in my kids, lol. But now that they have them for themselves, it is all they can talk about.

2:18 pm

of course

2:18 pm

nice, nan!

2:19 pm

help, I need a clue for la 6/24

2:19 pm

2:20 pm

2:20 pm

yvw

2:20 pm

thanks, sprite

2:21 pm

still missing one 8 and 2 7s. not sure if this is a tough grid or I am just totally messed up by the server crashes, grin.

2:21 pm

Oh yeah, I had my kids earlier than my college friends and the same thing happened. No interest at all in my kids, but WOW when they had their kids, that story changed.

2:21 pm

yeah, it is natural, I think. I don't blame them.

2:22 pm

130 and time for lunch - bbl :)

2:22 pm

enjoy, nan

2:22 pm

Well, I wasn't assigning any blame.

2:22 pm

didn't say you were, Molly

2:23 pm

bye everyone--Sprite, will try catching you in the morn --hugs and love

2:23 pm

*hugs pugs* see you tomorrow, I hope, darling. Sleep well!

2:24 pm

bye, pugs...enjoy the rest of the day

2:24 pm

la 7 & 8 pls

2:24 pm

that is my missing 8 then, hego, sorry

2:24 pm

I'm not sure I think it's natural for friends to not be interested in what is going on in your life. Some people can only relate when they are on common ground. Such is life.

2:25 pm

la7/8...starts like nursing mother + bluish color

2:25 pm

2:35 pm

I made a lentil loaf for dinner. when dicing the onions my eyes were tearing and my nose was running but I managed not to drip anything into the pots and pans :)

2:35 pm

lol peri, thank God

2:35 pm

There is a hummingbird at the feeder 4 feet from my head. Shhh.

2:35 pm

*Makes a note not to eat anything with onions when she goes to Peri's place for dinner*

2:35 pm

2:36 pm

hey, I was very careful, Molls

2:36 pm

aw cute, Scrabs

2:36 pm

Hi Scrabbs, I hear it

2:36 pm

2:36 pm

I cleaned an refilled the feeder 10 minutes ago.

2:36 pm

*Hums quietly*

2:37 pm

2:37 pm

Everybody hum. The bird is still drinking.

2:37 pm

Bye sprite

2:37 pm

2:37 pm

hmmmmmmmm

2:37 pm

Hummingbirds are beautiful

2:37 pm

yay for sprite.

2:37 pm

congrats, sprite

2:38 pm

humming birds are pretty

2:38 pm

molly, years ago when i was in Colorado, i couldn't believe how MANY hummingbirds there were! Just magical1

2:38 pm

We have the ruby-throated ones here.

2:39 pm

visited friends in NC yrs ago who actually complained because the hummers were NOISY! Wow

2:39 pm

they're such a treat here :-)

2:40 pm

Complained?! They are so special to hear and watch.

2:40 pm

i know!!

2:40 pm

there are always people who will have something to complain about

2:41 pm

i remember my mom being totally enchanted by the hummers buzzing around her head while she worked in the garden :-)

2:41 pm

or who need something to complain about

2:41 pm

And I finally have attracted orioles here. It is my third year with a feeder and finally last week I saw one.

2:41 pm

so cool scrabs!!

2:41 pm

And an indigo bunting on Sunday--stunning.

2:41 pm

very cool, scrabs

2:41 pm

oooohhhhh

2:41 pm

I am learning to identify wild food. very cool and fun

2:42 pm

Neat, Peri

2:42 pm

your wild food "walking lesson" sounded so interesting, peri

2:42 pm

Scrabs you must have lost of edible plants near you.

2:43 pm

Hmmm, wild onions? Mushrooms, for sure.

2:43 pm

BRB pups need to pee . . .

2:43 pm

have any ramps?

2:43 pm

Lots of fiddleheads now!

2:43 pm

it was great Une. A recommended book is : Edible Wild Plants, A North American Field Gide by Thomas Elias and Peter Dykeman. you can get it from amazon and barnes and noble.

2:44 pm

I think we saw some ramps. and I tasted some wild strawberries. someone brought stalks of bamboo and I ate some.

2:44 pm

'Food for Free is another good one. I can't recall the author though.

2:45 pm

lots of neat things but I don't remember all of the names. thans jaxx. will look that one up

2:45 pm

Ramps--I looked that up, wv. Yes, I guess Allium.

2:45 pm

I am visiting my friends in Bucks county soon and I will bring the book with me. we will go on a field trip.

2:45 pm

there is a mini version that fits in your pocket so you can take it with you

2:45 pm

Most of my backyard is overrun with wild strawberries. There are some raspberry bushes too.

2:46 pm

there are lots of edible flowers too

2:46 pm

At the moment, everyone is going crazy for wild garlic on the cookery shows

2:47 pm

I got in touch with the group thru meetup.com. I am lucky that I live near a major city.

2:47 pm

ramps are a wild plant that are supposed to be a cross between garlic and onions - very strong tsate - our area has lots of ramp festivals in the spring

2:47 pm

some of the people in the group are very knowlegable.

2:47 pm

I dislike onions and garlic.

2:48 pm

i do too - so i have never tried them

2:48 pm

I love onions and garlic. maybe I can come and visit someday, Scrabs and pick some.

2:48 pm

Crystallised flowers look lovely on cakes. Lightly beat an egg white, coat the flower with it and dip it into castor sugar. just make sure the flowers you choose are edible.

2:48 pm

I would love ramps then

2:49 pm

I smell the onions in the woods.

2:52 pm

hi again :-)

2:53 pm

I like onions and garlic in things, but I would never eat them raw

2:54 pm

I never eat raw garlic but I do eat raw onions

2:54 pm

Hard pretzels and cheese for all. Help yourself.

2:54 pm

ty scrabbs, I need a snack

2:55 pm

I'm not sure I would be happy with eating things found growing in the woods. I have heard too many stories of that going bad for people.

3:00 pm

going to check on lentil loaf and read for a while, bbl

3:01 pm

*brings some mustard to share with the pretzels and cheese*

3:03 pm

Thanks, Seain. I had to come inside--it got dark, cool and began raining.

hello, all. allergies are kicking mybutt today.

3:05 pm

It has been a tough season, Owl. Get some Nasacort-now OTC.

3:05 pm

it's a horrible year for pollen, and it's been cooler here, so even more pollen over a longer period.

3:08 pm

3:42 pm

The only deciduous conifer

3:52 pm

*Gets out the arborist books*

did babble ever come up yesterday night?

4:11 pm

Nope

dr. g should throw out those sats.

stats.

4:12 pm

I think he did do that as there are no final scores listed

4:12 pm

Dr God left message on the Babble FB page that yesterdays game would be thrown out

4:12 pm

And hello all!

ty, jilly.

4:16 pm

It would be nice if Dr. God would leave a message here too, for those who don't do Facebook. I guess none of the messages about the daily server problems were noticed. And then...BOOM!

4:16 pm

I did send an email to him since so much time had elapsed; wanted to make sure he was ok...

4:17 pm

I hadn't seen any of those messages about daily problems anywhere...

4:17 pm

No, I mean the emails that get sent about the daily red boxes.

4:18 pm

Oh, I wouldn't know about individual emails

4:18 pm

And we do have to keep in mind he does have a life away from babble...LOL ;)

4:19 pm

We all have a life away from Babble.

4:20 pm

Really?...sure didn't seem that way last night...

4:21 pm

Last night?

4:22 pm

When babble was down...I think I really on it too much to destress my day. And there are days I cannot babble, so I really missed it last night

i regretted that i had begun since i could not finish.

4:31 pm

I know, me too TO, had lurked for the 10 minutes I had before work, only to come home to it being down.

4:32 pm

Just glad Dr God eliminated the game. Hope no one had finished and will lose their points

4:33 pm

Okay, half way and nbt/nbs....am going to take a break...and certainly hope grid stays on LOL..bb in a few

4:34 pm

Lots of people finished and will lose their points.

it was a big grid and i was over half way.

yes, there is that.

but EVERYONE will lose them.

4:36 pm

Understandable. But people have been losing points for a long time, because the server has been malfunctioning.

i did not realize that ive been away a lot and not playing.

4:38 pm

Me, I don't care about points, but I know there are people who do.

phantoms: caracal, caramel, sneeze.

i just hate to waste time and not finish. i do not look at points anymore - reminds me of how muh time i've whiled away here!

4:44 pm

Well, it seems to be all fixed now. And whoever's server caused the breakdown has been banned, so just another bump in the road. : D

4:46 pm

back from dinner, my lentil loaf turned out quite well

4:47 pm

Peri had a good loaf : D

4:53 pm

how is the page doing now?

4:56 pm

hello?

5:04 pm

TO, think of it as mental gymnastics. It is a fact that word puzzles really exercise the brain and keep it healthy. So you are not wasting time, you are exercising!

5:09 pm

Hi there. I just finished and thought I'd open the chog. Clues anybody?

5:09 pm

Hi, gramma

5:09 pm

Howdy!

5:10 pm

I don't have a lot of time. My son is coming for his b-day dinner soon

5:11 pm

Are you having anything special for dinner?

5:12 pm

Steak and oven roasted rosemary, garlic potatoes and salad

5:12 pm

Any food to him is special

5:12 pm

Ooh!!! Any chance of the leftovers?

5:12 pm

No clues needed Gramma, enjoy your dinner.

5:13 pm

Not a chance in the world!

5:13 pm

Oh! disappointed face

5:14 pm

He has been living in his car for about 6 weeks. he's addicted to heroin and it breaks our hearts

5:15 pm

Oh, I am so sorry. My late son was an addict and it wasn't easy to live with.

5:16 pm

It is awful for everyone. But I know he'll eat tonight and that makes me happy.

5:16 pm

I'll keep him in my prayers, Gramma. Active addicts can be on a very downward spiral. Tough on the loved ones.

5:17 pm

I shall think of you all eating that lovely meal and hoping that the next year will be better for him

5:17 pm

He's going through his 4th attempt to quit. Maybe this time.

5:17 pm

There is always hope, gramma

5:18 pm

It's hard to believe in someone who continually disappoints you. I'm glad you still have faith.

5:18 pm

I hate heroin! I love my baby boy. 33 years ago I held the most beautiful child in my arms. I will get him back.

5:19 pm

At the least he is trying. My son just wouldn't.

5:19 pm

Molly, if I didn't have faith in his strength I think I would no longer be able to breath

5:20 pm

Enough! I'm going to smile and celebrate his 33 years and hope and pray for more.

5:20 pm

I hate addiction. It robs people of their loving relationships. And sadly, some addicts/alcoholics, have no interest in recovery.

5:20 pm

I think you need the strength just as much, if not more

5:21 pm

He caught a tiger by the tail with this one. It is a lifetime struggle I hope he wins.

5:21 pm

he will if you have anything to do with it

5:21 pm

Okay. stop this nonsense and get on with the partay

5:22 pm

G'nite all

5:22 pm

I have a candle lit for your boy, Gramma. Enjoy your birthday time with him.

5:22 pm

Right, off to your birthday celebration. Stay as positive and I will keep you and your son in my thoughts.

5:27 pm

5:46 pm

Actually looking a bit brighter! Work is pretty tough but #1 son had yet another nightmare from his big mistake marriage get resolved. And two new meds my hubby was put on are actually improving him!

5:47 pm

And we are looking forward to spending Memorial Day weekend in Yellowstone, both to see our son, but also as a "reconnect" opportunity.

5:47 pm

And thank you for asking Molly!

6:10 pm

Oh good grief..to many calls...heading out..bbl with 60 left

Walmart? Is this product placement?

6:16 pm

Thanks, jilly for the 8. Fair exchange it seems

6:25 pm

Okay, going to try again...

6:26 pm

And an 8 for an 8 is quite fair jaxx

what's with the red boxes and the server throwing a temper tantrum today?

6:28 pm

HOW DO U PLAY

6:28 pm

server was down for a long time! Poor doctor god was away..

6:29 pm

Hi coolmaker and welcome. You will find assistance in the help box above the chat grid..

you find words in the grid by looking up and down and sideways and you write them under the grid

6:29 pm

LOL, was just typing that Kaplan!

Word of serious advice. Heroin is being cut with fentanyl these days which causes an epidemic of ODs. Lobby your town police first responders to train in narcan for OD's. Harm Reduction is very important. End of professional promotional ad.

6:34 pm

That is scary Kaplan...I do sedation and use Fentanyl..I know what it can do...respiratory depression for one

Kids are in trouble and there is a serious lack of support and resources to give them a way out.

6:37 pm

Not just for substance abuse but in every area!

It happens long before there is any drug use- a poverty of attachment and connection in life. Yes.

Substances use is only one manifestation of a very serious emptiness in the way we live now.

6:39 pm

Amen, I also have done teen youth ministry for 17 years...what a change! Even in the 8 years since my youngest was a teen. Too much busy activity, not enough family time, not enough sleep, too many demands for the best school, grades, sports scholarships

6:39 pm

We are killing our children

Growing up hearing the planet is dying doesn't help.

6:40 pm

I don't know Kap, same was being said when I was growing up in 60/70's...we decided to try and do something about it

We stopped using styropfoam and had Earth Day?

6:41 pm

Substances use is only one manifestation of a very serious emptiness in the way we live now...very true Kap...lots of emptiness for other reasons.

I am very discouraged about the corporate investment in dirty energy.

6:42 pm

It didn't seem so hopeless back then,, or not so much terrible divisiveness

On that note...

6:45 pm

If you read the news, we are given a reason to be hopeless on a daily basis. Sorry I intruded on your conversation.

6:45 pm

LOL

6:46 pm

You're fine Molly, and I agree. there is so much good still, but it doesn't make ratings

6:46 pm

doesn't sell newspapers

I would buy a newspaper with good news about the planet. In fact, it would sell out fast!

6:48 pm

It frustrates me that all the good teens do gets ignored. Ihave to kudo our local papers, they are really trying to show those as well

6:48 pm

no jobs for kids, either - McDonald's jobs are being taken by displaced older workers. more kids not moving out of parents' homes.

6:49 pm

Experiencing the boomerang young adult myself. And it took 4 years for our youngest to get a job in his degreed field...and that with a lot of hard work

6:50 pm

Sorry, and everyone go ahead and hate me, but jobs like fast food are being given to illegal aliens and American citizens remain jobless.

That is sort of a myth. Undocumented workers contribute a lot to this economy.

6:51 pm

all the kitchen help in the nearest towns here are illegals, all the motels and gas stations are run by Indians. (who don't hire anyone).

6:51 pm

Not so much here. And there is a point that a lot of American teens are not willing to work hard. The company that has jobs in National Parks has to have imported young adults now, not like when my hubby worked there. There are not enough Americans applying.

6:52 pm

I agree, molly. In this country it is a big problem. Plus the fact that the educational standards are so dismal that older workers are preferred by employers. Plus the older folk are more reliable

6:53 pm

by kitchen help I mean in restaurants, not fast food so much.

Age discrimination exists too.

6:53 pm

Both my sons have worked many seasons in Yellowstone. Both say "Yah, I flip burgers for the summer, but look at my backyard!"

6:53 pm

Not sort of a myth. And older workers are not getting jobs because they skew the insurance rates too high.

6:53 pm

When I went on holiday recently, there were many Polish and asian workers but only one, the supervisor, who spoke English. She herded patrons and staff alike using a serviette

6:54 pm

Jaxx...see my previous post about natioanl park concessionaires

6:55 pm

Kids can get jobs anywhere. They will work for lower wages. They don't have mortgages and other "adult" expenses. And a lot of them are living with their parents.

6:56 pm

I have a problem with old people

6:56 pm

In about 1980, a boyfriend and I went to Wash. State to pick apples, just to see more of the country, really. We drove into the first small orchard we saw any action in, and when we told the guy we wanted to pick, he ran to an older couple and said, Mom! Dad! English speaking Americans want to work!" Lol!! We worked for those same folks 5 different years, and were the only English speakers the whole time.

7:10 pm

7:10 pm

Holy ****. Thunderstorm with golf-ball size hail just hit. Glad I just walked the dog.

7:11 pm

wow!! hope it misses us!

7:12 pm

I forget exactly where you are, rbud, but it's all well north of I-80.

7:13 pm

whew! I'm good then. All of about 6 miles south of I-80, hahaha! :)

7:14 pm

north of Peoria up the river.

7:14 pm

looked at radar, it does look like it's going straight W to E, unusual.

7:15 pm

It's a really narrow east-west line of storms, looks like it will miss you by quite a bit unless it suddenly expands.

7:16 pm

One of my friends in Sycamore (all of about 5 miles north of here) has no hail at all.

7:16 pm

Hi UU and all. Just starting from the blue-skied fluffy clouded Northwest.

7:16 pm

we have a brand new porch roof over our former only-a-deck, it's been nice sitting there watching it drizzle.

7:16 pm

Hi gmere!

7:16 pm

Sounds lovely, rbud!

7:17 pm

been a long time in the making.

7:18 pm

Good evening all. Glad that we are back 'up'. May I please have a clue for en7-32? tHANKS

ETBE

ETRA

7:18 pm

hi peach! Don't have it but will look.

7:19 pm

en8/45, deeply fascinate; take off the last consonant for en7/32

7:20 pm

and plural the 8/45 for the 9/60

7:20 pm

Thanks so much, sue.

7:20 pm

enthralls

7:20 pm

you can also plural the 7/32 for another 8/45

7:20 pm

that was it :-)

7:20 pm

Sorry

7:21 pm

I really need to wake up...LOL

7:22 pm

:-)

7:23 pm

anyway, now I have nbs as well as nbt, time to do something else for a bit...

7:29 pm

Thanks for the subtle clue, gapeach. How is life in the PB? Sending in freshly made strawberry ice cream.

Could I have a clue for the i please?

7:31 pm

Don't have it yet, cat.

7:31 pm

Thanks stidgmere.....love the ice cream.

7:32 pm

It is 4 letters, il and two vowels.

Of course! Thanks.

7:33 pm

YW peach. I just got an ice cream maker and it freezes using a cold cylinder. Easy peasy.

7:34 pm

Have you made peach ice cream? It is better when the fresh peaches are available.

7:36 pm

I have a recipe and will certainly do peach ice cream in season.

7:39 pm

oh, I love homemade ice cream.

7:41 pm

hello ladies. Home made ice cream with fresh fruit sounds SO good!

7:41 pm

Need to feed animals.....bbl

7:43 pm

This ice cream maker is so easy. Our last one was electric but required salt, ice, and lots of time. This one takes a half hour and it is ready for the freezer to set up.

7:44 pm

is it as noisy as the old ones that needed salt and ice were? ( pardon the dangling participle...)

7:45 pm

Not noisy at all. Well maybe a little but nothing like the fan on my cooktop.

7:46 pm

perhaps we should look for one of those... it sounds so inviting on a very hot day

7:46 pm

good evening everyone:)

7:46 pm

good evening! how is everybody?

7:46 pm

greetings croosy

7:47 pm
