1:28 am

Down to 26 - still haven't found ag 8 - wouldn't mind a clue if it won't upset others.

1:29 am

ag8, ag + to take a break, sit down + most of frozen water

1:29 am

Thanks - really clear clue - would't have guessed that one!

1:31 am

You'd think I'd remember am 4/5 - the name of a really difficult kid I taught!

1:38 am

1:39 am

Got them! Wow! Of course - roses first - beautiful. Do they smell as good as they look?

1:39 am

Love the reconstruction work - what a difference that'll make. Can't wait to see the finished kitchen.

1:40 am

Clever idea elevating the washing machine - I'm sure that must help you.

1:40 am

the cecil brunner against the wall of house is to die for. the window to the right as you look at the pic, is our bedroom

1:40 am

and the huge yellow roses on long sprays also scented.

1:41 am

4:34 am

g'day pip

4:35 am

4:35 am

i am already procrastinating

4:35 am

gm pippin

4:35 am

I did, never seen that before--be really nice for you

4:40 am

pugs, only half the roses are in flower. i will send pics when the others flower. oh, and i found a pair of really long bbq tongs...i can get most of the weeds out with them. my aim is to try and do 15 minutes every day that i can.

4:40 am

quick 72 and off to lunch with Mr. Charm

4:40 am

*woof*

4:40 am

bye Ruby

4:42 am

wow Rose! You really got a blooming year on the roses----I loved the red tinted yellow ones---so glad you found a way to do something to make things easier on you

4:43 am

bye ruby. enjoy lunch dear.

4:43 am

I see I missed Sprite and seen she was having trouble here :( Makes for a bad start to her day----She's having a not-so-good time right now, my heart goes out to her

4:44 am

pugs those roses have a lovely light scent

4:44 am

what are the flowers in the hanging basket? Are they some sort of roses too?

4:45 am

and the bush covered in tiny pale pink roses is the cecil brunner. the windows to the right are our bedroom. on a warm day i open the windows and the scent drifts in.

4:46 am

yes pugs. i have four baskets. one under each window.

4:46 am

the little red ones are single, miniatures.

4:46 am

how heavenly! Its so full of flowers that it dont seem the branches could hold them-lol----I bet the air there right now smells so wonderful

4:47 am

it does, pugs.

4:48 am

how could a person be down and blue with all that beauty and aroma? LOL

4:49 am

and i planted them because?? exactly pugs

4:50 am

need to send poor Sprite there for a vacation-lol

4:52 am

did you get the pic I sent you of the pug? lol

4:52 am

pugs, sprite appears to be sleeping better, with fewer bad dreams. she even slept in today.

4:52 am

*giggle* yup.

4:53 am

thats a big plus! I'm so glad for her--------I could help but to share it-lol

4:53 am

i don't think ruby has checked her emails yet. i did send the pics to her too.

4:54 am

good--I forget to do that sometimes, thanks

4:55 am

so...daylight saving starts over there overnight, yes?

4:55 am

I will have to look at my pug and see if that is on her--lol

4:55 am

it did Rose

4:56 am

I'm washing walls today---such great fun--lol

4:57 am

okay, i did email lickety so he could update the time for the clue list

4:58 am

are you, yourself doing okay Rose?

4:58 am

yes darling. i doubled my magnesium dose during the day. it has been good.

4:59 am

is your new doctor working out

5:00 am

you didn't he4? he went to south america for a holiday, had a heart attack and died.

5:04 am

((rose)) Isn't magnesium just wonderful? I use it daily and extra for leg cramps and muscle aches.

5:04 am

And everyone should be taking vitamin D3...they've found a connection between deficiency of that and the development of dementia.

5:05 am

Of course, my son says I don't have to worry about developing Alzheimer's because they won't be able to tell the difference!

5:05 am

Hi, pug!

My phantom - heretic

5:10 am

sorry Rose, I got kicked off---and HI Mimi, nice to see you

5:10 am

Good one, matty!

5:10 am

Good to see you, too, pug!

5:11 am

g'day mimi and matty

5:11 am

yes, Rose you and Sprite told me about your doctor but I thought Sprite said you found a new one---did I misunderstand that

5:11 am

Hi Matty, nice to meet you

Howdy Pug! And Rose, and Mimi

5:12 am

pugs, i am waiting to find out if the associates are going to take on the clinic.

5:12 am

if they don't i do have another doctor i can go to.

5:12 am

I hope all works out for you on that Rose

5:13 am

thanx pugs

5:14 am

mimi, which magnesium do you use?

5:14 am

I know, Rose, it was hard for you to give up working but maybe it was a good thing for you after all. You know you would of pushed yourself beyond the limits and now you can enjoy life with Don and so on

5:15 am

i know pugs. i just have to get my he4 around it...lol

5:16 am

soon you will have a new kitchen and think of all the cooking and baking you will be able to do---and you got many addresses to send cookies and such--LOL

5:16 am

I'd have to look, rose, and cannot do so right now without waking my new stray cat. There are so many natural alternatives and I've started researching those that are relevant to me.

5:17 am

The best supplement I've found so far and one that everyone needs as well is CoQ10...amazing and great for the heart as well as every other organ in the body. We basically stop producing enough of it as we age (so what else is new).

5:18 am

np's mimi. it's just that i found magnesium malate. it is only available from USA. it has changed my life.

5:18 am

How are things with you Mimi? Ive pretty well have lost bases with everyone

5:19 am

Rose, you will love not working. I work part-time at home and love having more free time to pursue all my interests....and, hopefully, finish writing my book.

5:19 am

mimi, tried it, didn't notice any difference. maybe i need to be older??

5:19 am

Things are good, pug, thanks. Still writing and my daughter got married a week ago.

5:20 am

or maybe i am still producing it...lol. that would be right. my body does every thing backwards.

5:20 am

how nice, Mimi---was it a beautiful wedding?

5:20 am

I'm 63, rose, and I noticed a difference in my energy level after one week. But even if you can't "feel" the difference, you should be taking it.

5:21 am

ahhh, okay. will get some more then

5:21 am

Actually, they got married at a justice of the peace rather quickly because they couldn't qualify for his VA loan together unless they were married. They're planning to have a wedding soon and he's shopping for an engagement ring now. They're only telling a few people they're already married. They close on the house just before Thanksgiving and it is a real beauty.

5:22 am

Rose, try to get the kind that has black pepper extract with it as it increases absorption by 30%.

5:22 am

thanx mimi

5:23 am

are you sure it isn't the pepper putting the pep back into your life?

5:23 am

will they be living close to you, Mimi and I wish them all the best

5:23 am

Be sure to take the D3...really important.

5:24 am

will need to check which vit D i am taking. it is in combo with calcium.

5:24 am

Yes, they're a 10-minute drive away. I was so honored that I was the very first person to know they were married. My daughter and I were estranged for awhile but now are back on track and I couldn't be happier.

5:25 am

Yes, that's the one to take, rose...you're exactly on the right track!

5:25 am

nice, mimi.

5:25 am

thats so great Mimi--so happy for you

5:26 am

Cannot believe I have another cat! This little guy was on the steps to my bldg. and he is so sweet and special. But I'm in a one-bedroom apt. and now have FOUR cats!! Impatient for next year when I'll move into my house in the mountains!

5:27 am

if you will pardon the pun....but that's a lot of pussy...

5:27 am

And remember, rose....you are coming to stay for a bit and we're going to see the Grand Canyon!

5:27 am

ROFL!!!

5:28 am

i won't forget, mimi.

5:30 am

Friends, I need to go --- hope to catch you all next weekend--May God bless you all through out the week--hugs and love

5:31 am

Thanks, pug, and have a great week.

5:31 am

hugs and kisses dearest pugs

5:33 am

Well, rose dear, must get started on my work...have a ton today which is why I'm up very early. Take care and hope to see you here soon. Big hug!

5:33 am

hugs and kisses mimi. enjoy your day, dear

5:35 am

i too must be away. pillows are calling. enjoy the grid. some strange twisty words in the grid.

6:30 am

joseph i a gh6 but i dont have it

i was afraid of that!

6:30 am

matty, do you remember the actor in all creatures great and small?

I have it, but only by going to morewords. GH+ a sound you make when you're not sure of something + a couple of vowels

There were a bunch - do you mean the actor or the writer?

thanks

6:31 am

matty i dont have it

Ah hah! The writer. Thanks!

6:31 am

the author of the book?

6:31 am

the actor...james he****

Nope, he wrote it - Christopher Timothy played him in the series (signed, pedantic polly)

6:32 am

duh, me, of course the author.

His real name was James White, I think

6:33 am

The only name I could think of, other than the author, was Peter Davison :)

can anyone help with the right side i

6:33 am

the H word doesnt work?

Who was, of course, also the fifth doctor and indeed, the dish of the day in Hitchhiker's Guide

oh i found them

6:33 am

So, it that related to the GH word?

6:33 am

ic6, most like the frozen water

6:34 am

Yes Matty :)

Sorry, I'll stop showing off my geek creds now. ;) I think he's also David Tennant's father in law

6:35 am

okay. * pulling you all into line* lol. he6, he + civil disturbance

6:35 am

gm, everyone! clue for the gh?

6:35 am

Yes, he is. As you can see, I am a Doctor Who fan. And, his wife played his daughter on the show :)

6:35 am

Ty Rose, I kept trying two rrs

She did indeed. :) Have you seen last night's yet?

6:35 am

Hello again :)

6:36 am

Yes I have..... so good

6:36 am

lbd, gh6. gh + a long time + vowel

6:36 am

I can't believe the series is almost over already.

I'm so so about it - sick of the same villains though (the bunch of baddies, not the singular)

6:37 am

thanks for the gh, rose

8:22 am

thanks, gwen

8:22 am

off to eat my yummy strawberries -- later :-)

8:23 am

enjoy, une :)

apparently gh6 is a type of labor strike, term from India

8:23 am

lol, only in Babble

if shakespeare ever used it, it will be in dict forever

8:25 am

ugh, do not remind me. I have to read Othello very soon

No. It's a real word (here in India at least :) )... it's form of strike where the strikers block the authorities/officers inside the office and block them from going out.

why have to?

8:26 am

part of my class assignment

when you have pissed off your worker that much, it's time to step down! LOL

8:26 am

KH 5/22?

wonder if the root word means "really pissed off" LOL

:)

kh5/22 = k + the top part of your body (spelled wrong) + vowel

8:27 am

cross i liked Othello

8:28 am

thanks gwen never would have found that one

othello has fewer bloody slayings than otehr shakespeare ptragediies, am i right?

no prob, mlfan!

8:30 am

what else would you expect gwen lol?

8:30 am

It will be my very first experience with the bard:)

8:31 am

does anyone see my pic?

is it a pizza?

8:32 am

you mean what is in front of me gwen?

your icon looks like a pizza. let me click on you so i can see it bigger. probably won't look anything like a pizza then

hmmm, on your profile, you (?) sitting at a desk (?) sorry, it's way too small

8:34 am

I cannot tell what is in that icon. Looks like you are sitting in front of a metal bucket full of whipped cream... it is so tiny

8:34 am

nope gwen lol

8:34 am

it was a pastry before

before what? LOL

8:35 am

before what it is now

8:35 am

cross i am surprised it is tiny as it is a big photo it looks like a big cupcake but it is actually a cake

okay, i'm looking again

8:37 am

i dont know how to resize it on here

i enlarged it using my image viewer, and of course, very fuzzy after being enlarged, but I do see you and a giant pastry and/or small bucket LOL

8:39 am

not a bucket lol

(i stopped trying to change my icon long time ago, such a freakin' hassle)

8:39 am

gen i just never know what to use

8:39 am

gwen

yeah, i know, but honest, it looks kind of like a bucket full of whipped cream or something

8:40 am

well yes it is white frosting

sounds yum yummy

8:40 am

i didnt think it was real when i first saw it either ie edible

8:41 am

simple white cake

sorry, i can't tell you anything useful about making your icon bigger, or making it actually show up in here. all very mysterious!

8:42 am

i refreshed both pages so you should see it

8:42 am

do any of you see a person in the pic?

all right, i'll refresh too

ah ha, now i see it!

8:43 am

:)

8:43 am

i see a person...

8:43 am

hi pen

8:43 am

hi...

sorry, it is way way small, with a huge matte-type border, so it just looks like abstract art

8:44 am

i will change it again as soon as i think of something to put there

you need some nice Doctor Who images to choose from LOL

8:45 am

why gwen?

umm, because it's cool! LOL

8:46 am

that would be too many to choose from though lol

well, if you're a fan of ML (don't know( then you can use a picture from that!

8:48 am

not a big fan but i have watched all versions

8:48 am

but just some episodes

8:53 am

good morning :-)

8:55 am

as far as babble icons go, i have had several wolves over the years, but the one I have now is my last. Once you find the perfect icon, I see no sense in changing it again:)

okay, i have to ask, what's ML?

9:44 am

Ru is more the lovable cuddly teddy bear type.

9:44 am

Lol.. i better take une's dogs out to pee now

9:45 am

Come to think of it that's Crossy too.

I always pictured me as the beany baby type hego

9:49 am

Um, no comment on the beans.

9:49 am

Now both studs are here.

Harlot in a car lot, that's me.

9:50 am

saw your new bunny, scrabby. great rescue!

9:50 am

I only love you for your blonde hair judi :D

9:51 am

Ah yes. Like fine wine, my blonde hair comes from a bottle.

9:51 am

so does his wine. hahaha

9:51 am

unlike wine though, it only ages once it is decanted:)

9:51 am

Crossy, I am amazed at how the rescue was meant to happen.

9:52 am

Scrabbs rescued another rabbit! Good on you, Scrabbs! Post pic!

9:52 am

it was perfect timing for you and the rabbit

9:52 am

That was a good thing Scrabs.

9:52 am

De-bottle, de-can... whatever.

9:52 am

I am anazed that woman was so f-ing stupid scrabs

9:52 am

he obv. needed a home where he would be cared for

9:53 am

Pics are on FB. He was going to be released into the wild! The woman said, "He is neglected and just sits in his cage. I think I will just let him loose outside."

9:53 am

I would bet he lived in a cage 24/7 with nails like that

9:53 am

Oy. Some people are just clueless.

9:53 am

I would bet he lived in a cage 24/7 with nails like that snap

9:53 am

Dummy!

9:53 am

I would have told her yeah well your kid is sick so put her out ib tge woods too

9:55 am

But he is sweet, calm, and loves being held. He is gobbling up hay so I bet he never had any. She was using crappy bunny food, with all the seeds and junk. Now he has timothy-based pellets from Nebraska's Oxbow Animal Health.

9:55 am

You had a long life with tucker, 10 years old you said? and his crossing the rainbow bridge at just this time most likely saved this rabbits life:)

9:55 am

hello again

9:56 am

wb, mlf

9:56 am

Tucker would have been 10 in Dec and I just happened to see the woman's newborn on Thursday. I always ask about pets in homes and then talked about my love of rabbits.

10:01 am

A nice icon would be one that either reflects the season or your inner self or things that please you

10:01 am

cross that would be too many to choose from dont you think so?

10:02 am

you shall have to narrow it down some:))

10:02 am

cross what is your icon?

10:02 am

10:02 am

10:02 am

10:02 am

10:03 am

10:06 am

i love snow

10:06 am

Hi welki. I awoke to a snow-covered world too.

10:06 am

Just checked out the new bunny Scrabs. Love the stripe down the back.

10:06 am

Hi Welki

10:07 am

Remy is a tri-colored mini-Rex.

10:07 am

snow is fine - so long as everyone is home, safe and sound. here, the roads aren't kept well and it's an exercise in survival driving if you dare to go out

10:07 am

The black and orange variety of the tri-colored kind.

10:07 am

Remy, ah. Nice name.

10:07 am

Cute bunny.

10:08 am

Male?

10:08 am

he's beautiful, scrabs

10:09 am

My local sister is here for the weekend and came with me to get the rabbit. We had a list of names then she thought of Remy. Yes, not neutered yet. I am not sure I need to neuter him. He is well-behaved so far.

10:09 am

a Remi-saurus-rex:)

10:09 am

haha Crossy

10:09 am

And since mini-Rexes were originally bred in France in the late 1800's a French name like Remy fits.

10:10 am

or remy-Martin

10:10 am

Everything I know about rabbits I learned from Scrabs.

10:10 am

lol

10:10 am

love their fur - if you put your hand gently on their fur, palm flat down, it feels like you've put your hand in a dish of whipped cream

10:11 am

my chog is stuttering very badly atm:(

10:11 am

Judi has a giant icon, don't know if that still slows chat down

10:12 am

Mine is okay

10:13 am

Mine is fine too

10:13 am

I love to be pet with whipped cream too welki

we've got about 4 or 5 inches so far and still snowing

10:22 am

wee showers mean something else out here in SF

10:22 am

At 92/84 I need a break. Maybe I will return later.

10:22 am

Uhg. Losing consciousness, must scoop litter box.

10:22 am

10:23 am

10:35 am

10:38 am

how goes your weekend?

10:40 am

I think it is a little crude actually

10:41 am

yeah, but i'm not as classy as you are, ruru

10:42 am

well...

10:42 am

is someone going to put Judi's towel in the wash?

10:43 am

I mean, wine tasting in france? how can a back-woods girl compete with that? :D

10:44 am

if you can brew some kick-arse moonshine we will forgive you:)

10:44 am

hahah. sadly, not in my skill set, crossy.

10:45 am

I can ride an alpaca though, if that's of any use?

10:47 am

only if you can knit me a nice alpaca sweater;)

10:47 am

I can crochet, but someone else will have to spin the wool...

10:48 am

never learned knitting.

10:53 am

i am of no use to you... *le sigh*

10:57 am

:(

10:57 am

no moonshine...no sweater.. can you dance?

10:57 am

Hello babbleworld!

10:57 am

How's your weather crossy?

10:58 am

I used to be pretty decent at swing dancing, but am rather out of practice

10:58 am

morning, jilly

10:58 am

Hi jes! How's the menagerie?

10:58 am

actually, you can be handy, jes. My kitties, all three of them seem to be itchy and have developed scabs in certain areas, no fur has come out and nothing is open or running, but is there something I can bathe them in to help untill i can save for a vet visit?

10:59 am

I can do a dog c-section in 45 minutes or less though, that's gotta count for at least a little? :D

10:59 am

did someone say DANCE?

10:59 am

menagerie is chaotic as usual, jilly. Know anybody that needs a 3 legged cat? :D

11:00 am

are they all scabby in the same areas? what areas? you've looked for fleas first off, i assume?

11:00 am

all inside cats, no fleas. scabs running along back of the spine and highly sesitive on top near tail

11:01 am

I'd take him jes...just a bit of a drive...also Harpjane is catless...

11:01 am

{{crossy}}

11:01 am

((ruby))

11:01 am

Yipes crossy..poor little dears!

11:01 am

what are they rubbing under? did anybody put shampoo or lotion on them? change hand lotions/lotion your hands before petting?

11:01 am

how are you ruby?

11:01 am

I'm willing to transport for a good home, jilly :)

11:02 am

and Montana's not that long a drive from Washington

11:02 am

we use a pet approved condition shampoo by Hartz but they developed the scabs and itching before that

11:02 am

Hmmmm....will have to approach jane...

11:02 am

I'm OK, thanks Jilly, just dealing with poor old husband

11:02 am

However, we've had nicer weather in Sept and Oct than in the whole summer

11:02 am

I know ruby..any help from docs?

11:03 am

Is HE7 a plural?

11:03 am

There's nothing to be done for him

11:03 am

*Picks up Judi's towel with a stick and tosses it in a hot wash*

11:03 am

hello MLF

11:03 am

(((hugs))) so sorry ruby...wish you weren't so far away!

11:03 am

and here at least you cannot go near a vet for anything unless you have MINIMUM of $200 to burn:(

11:03 am

hello ruby

11:03 am

hmm. well, you can try bathing with dishsoap, and wiping them down with benadryl spray in case they got into something that set off an allergic reaction

11:04 am

that's cuz canadian money's like monopoly money... :D

11:04 am

My dogs are getting their winter fur and look enormous! Baby girl is almost as big as the male

11:05 am

(or is it actually higher value than USD now?)

11:05 am

lol, it is on par with your greenbaCKS ATM:)

11:05 am

you could bring them to visit me, exam is $50...

11:05 am

just vets need lots of them:))

11:05 am

lol,jes

11:05 am

ruby?

11:06 am

ty, jes will try the benadryl spray

11:06 am

I thought I said "Hello" MLF, how many words do you have left? We're usually about the same at this time

11:07 am

yes we said hello to each other:)

11:07 am

What about oral benedyl jes?

11:07 am

won't they lick off the Benadryl?

11:07 am

i have 38 left

11:07 am

yes, what about them licking the benadryl off?

11:07 am

You are way ahead of me then

11:07 am

oral benedryl is fine, but they often don't like the taste.

11:07 am

sorry ruby

Crossy..... where do you figure that our dollar is par ? We've been watching it closely, being as we go to Az. right after Christman. Right now, it is only worth 89 cents against the U.S. dollar.

11:07 am

anyway i am out of here poof

11:08 am

give it in a piece of banana the benedryl

11:08 am

When Rufie scratches too much, before I put him on steroids, I give him half a Benadryl capsule but it makes him sleepy

11:08 am

1mg/pound is the oral dose

11:08 am

mm.. last i saw here at the store it was taking $1,05 to buy a greenback

11:08 am

it changes constantly, dianne

11:08 am

bye MLF

11:08 am

sleepy is good if he's itchy ruby

It's been below 90 for qute a while

11:10 am

as of this split second you need $1.11 CAD to get a U.SA dollar

11:10 am

I check one a week, not hour by hour:)

11:10 am

an extra 11 cents!? see, monopoly money! hahahahah

11:11 am

and about $1.30 for one euro

11:11 am

not that i order from the U.S that often

11:11 am

lol,jes

11:11 am

you are jealous of our pretty polymer bills

11:11 am

i totally am.

When I worked in the bank years ago, it was the other way.

11:11 am

though stater money's getting more colorful the last few yeas.

11:11 am

years, even.

11:12 am

a Euro note went through the wash and it was barely OK after, not like US money

11:12 am

was just a few years ago we were over par and in the late 70's as well

11:12 am

our new bills are bulletproof as long as you do not put them in a hot dryer

11:12 am

I'd rather have monopoly $$ than monopoly healthcare...

11:13 am

Mi6,24 help please?

11:13 am

do they actually melt?

11:13 am

skinny dog says she wants to go poo... back in a bit :)

11:13 am

poor jilly:(

11:13 am

they can, ruby

In 2011, we got just over par.... didn't last long though :-( I never order good from the States, but we do put a "little" into their economy when we spend 3 months down in Az.

11:13 am

sorry erda, too early in...will go look

11:13 am

but good thing is you can go swimming with them no problems'

and a trip through the laundry does no harm :-)

11:14 am

past tense of what bishops wear (mi6)

11:14 am

yes, duty on stuff from the U.S is horrible. i ordered a special plushie from Disney store in U.S, the duty was just as much as the cost of the plushie!!

11:16 am

was a classic style eeyore for the mrs:)

11:16 am

That's the second one. I need the first one...

11:18 am

11:22 am

well it's 38 on the ground here....

11:23 am

back again

11:25 am

39F here. but clear and dry so not bad for dog walking.

11:25 am

Humidity high enough to make it feel nippy here

11:26 am

Yuck...too much re4/5ing to the left today!

11:26 am

very windy here,too.....large branches on a tree broke off when I was moving the car...

11:28 am

I am trying to work up the will to do some laundry:(

11:46 am

and failing:(

11:46 am

haha. daylight savings time is messing with skinny dog's he4, she thinks it's lunch time now.

11:47 am

for a skinny dog, it is always lunch time:)

11:48 am

she eats like a hobbit - 6 meals a day :)

11:50 am

but she's up to 32 pounds :)

11:51 am

of course, breakfast, elevenses, lunch, afternoon snack, tea time, supper, evening snack and bed time snack

11:51 am

biab

11:51 am

exactly!

11:52 am

Actually, Hobbits have 7 meals a day. Breakfast, second breakfast, elevenses, lunch, tea, dinner and supper.

11:54 am

oh, I'm sure Effie would love a second breakfast too :)

11:54 am

Second breakfast is the best.

11:57 am

maybe....but the only time i have 2nd breakfast is if i've been rousted from bed entirely too early.

11:59 am

12:22 pm

sorry harp

12:22 pm

hi harp :) Jilly says you are currently catless and might be interested in changing that?

12:23 pm

thanks, jilly is a big fat liar! (um what have you got in mind....)

12:24 pm

hahaha. i have a 20 month old s/f short haired kitty that lost her leg in a dog fight

12:24 pm

she's super cute and friendly, vaccinated, microchipped, and has the adorable name of Pet Ball

12:25 pm

(which could totally be changed if it doesn't suit)

lol i thought i read "pit bull"

12:26 pm

ha! that'd be a great name for her! (She started the fight with the dog, because it was eating her food)

12:26 pm

Gee, and I thought of lager when I saw fo6

12:26 pm

so i think you could say I'm ambivalent

12:26 pm

so i think you could say I'm ambivalent

12:34 pm

Hi everyone! Happy Sunday!

12:35 pm

hi nrkii :)

12:35 pm

hi nrkii. Do you play QP?

12:36 pm

yes, bichon, I do

12:36 pm

I love QP

12:36 pm

Tiny url for Jes's link: http://tinyurl.com/nsgvqak

12:36 pm

I recognized your name

12:37 pm

hello friends. well, november is playing us a nasty trick....smowing!

12:37 pm

ooh, yes, you are there too! I've become a little tunnel-visioned lately because super busy, so I had not noticed that you were in both places... :)

12:37 pm

We don't have snow, but it wicked windy

12:37 pm

where, Trif?

12:37 pm

oh, sorry... i always forget to do that.

12:37 pm

massachusetts

12:37 pm

I usually notice you

12:37 pm

Penquis said she had snow too. Even weirder, my sister had snow in North Carolina.

12:38 pm

it was snowing SIDEWAYS on the way to church. Booooo

12:38 pm

Funny, there is a 3 leggedcat on a local bulletin board also

12:38 pm

Ooh, I should call my mom and see what she's getting. She's in western MA.

12:38 pm

We have big wind here too, but it's not that cold.

12:38 pm

no snow here in NC. your sister must be in the mountains.

12:38 pm

Very windy here in NJ, and chilly. I'm hibernating.

12:38 pm

tripods are cute :)

12:39 pm

Yesterday it was 42 and raining, today the same with no rain but awful wind

12:39 pm

She is in the mountains Mixi

12:39 pm

Bichon, I notice that you are always a high scorer on QP. I notice you there, but never made the connection back to here. Ciocia Judy also plays both. And Scrabbler. Probably others.

12:39 pm

riter

12:39 pm

sorry.

12:42 pm

what is qp ??

12:42 pm

I tried to recruit more people over to Quote Puzzler a couple times on Babble before, but it's tough to add even more games to what people already do. I love that QP only takes me about 30 minutes each day, so I always go there first and then come to Babble after that.

12:42 pm

Yes, Scrabbler and Judy. But I wouldn't call me a high scorer. Sometimes

12:43 pm

will have to look into QP.

12:43 pm

Haz is also nrkii, but I rarely see her on Babble any more

12:43 pm

must run. bbl.

12:43 pm

http://quotepuzzler.com/default.asp

12:43 pm

QP is lots of fun if you like word games. It's time too.

12:43 pm

FranMag is on both as well.

12:44 pm

I don't know here, what is her name on QP?

12:44 pm

*I meant timed.

12:46 pm

Looks like she didn't play yesterday. I think it's FranMag there.

12:46 pm

back home from Hawaii. Was so awesome, and it is so blooming cold here. So ready to go back!

12:47 pm

count for the lower middle i please?

12:47 pm

nm....nbt

12:47 pm

in5, in7, in8

12:48 pm

BBL.

12:48 pm

ty

12:50 pm

Welcome home Phan. It is not that cold here. You are fortunate to have been in Hawaii.

12:58 pm

looking up QP

12:58 pm

It's Quiz Puzzler Ruby

12:59 pm

I didn't know what it was either until someone explained what QP meant

12:59 pm

in5 isn't a word, it's a prefix! bah.

1:02 pm

Molly, have you ever done QP? You'd be good at it

1:03 pm

Of course, Molly, but it is hard going from 80's to 40's in one fell swoop

1:03 pm

No Bich, I barely have time for this game.

1:03 pm

I know what you mean

1:03 pm

<---Weeps for the tragedy of Phan's predicament

1:04 pm

But it doesn't take long as it is timed. I can finish in under 15 min

1:04 pm

haha!

1:14 pm

What are the stats for the bottom row O and i please?

1:14 pm

oi4/8

1:15 pm

Wait, scratch the ic...it's in5/16

1:37 pm

2:07 pm

ag8 clue please?

2:08 pm

ag + short period of relaxation + almost frozen water

2:08 pm

I wish i could help you jes

2:08 pm

thanks molly

2:09 pm

Apparently, it describes the area in which Jes lives : D

2:11 pm

thanks :)

back for a spell. feeling housebound.

it sounds as if the win has died down a bit.

2:20 pm

Unless it's really cold (and it's not) I love the wind. Great reminder of the force of nature.

2:20 pm

i have 3 left and my brain has exited the arena

yes, had to dodge some large branches down earlier, after all of that rain.

2:26 pm

Bon soir, mes amis :-)

2:27 pm

Oh look, she is practicing her French for her trip : P

2:27 pm

*Sets the timer*

2:27 pm

May wee!!!

2:27 pm

bon soir soodle

2:28 pm

I used to massacre French on purpose to aggravate my husband. Bone sewer

2:28 pm

Ah, Harp!! Long time no see. :-)

2:29 pm

Oh poor forgetful Soodle. She was just asking Harp about her Ireland trip the other day.

2:29 pm

Oh my. My head is melted!

2:30 pm

*Pats Soodle on the head and pours her a glass of wine*

2:31 pm

Alas. Sunday is a non-vino night, on account of the horror that is Monday morning. :-(

2:33 pm

A nun taught me French. Sr Josepha. We used to delight in massacering French to torment her.

2:33 pm

Are you such a light weight that one glass of wine would destroy your Monday?

2:34 pm

Tis a long time since I was called a light-weight in any context. :-(

2:35 pm

We used to drive Sr Josepha banannas by calling her Sr Joe-Feesa. Innocent times!

2:37 pm

My Dad's middle name was Joseph. My Mom used to pronounce it Jofus. : D

2:38 pm

To tease him, not because she was ignorant of the correct pronunciation.

2:39 pm

I have a nephew named Yusuf but my granddaughters cant say that and call him Doofus - so we all call him that now!

2:43 pm

Now see, I would have thought of all that before I named a kid Yusef.

2:44 pm

True but his dad is muslim it is probably only the English side of the family that cant pronounce it!

2:46 pm

Lol, kid's pronounciations can be very funny. My youngest used to declare things to be hobbirle if she deemed them horrible.

2:47 pm

is there a discrepancy between tile stats and words in the list for anybody but me?

2:47 pm

My sister wanted her kids to call my parents Grammy and Grandpa. That got mangled into Maimie and Pee Pot. Maimie stuck, Pee Pot did not.

2:47 pm

trouble is you go on reminding them of their pronunciations till they are about 50!!

2:48 pm

No discrepancy for me

2:49 pm

No Jess, mine tallied. Can I help you with one of my infamously pathetic clues?

2:49 pm

y twin's name is Rene but I could only manage wawa, when my daughter was tiny she called her Fifi and it stuck - luckily because before that she called her Weewee

2:50 pm

Rofl Moll .. Pee Pot!!! How appropriate! I must remember to tell my Dad that one.

2:51 pm

Your post got a bit distorted, Deeha. Are you a twin?

2:51 pm

weird. my list says i have 3 left, but i've got 4 white tiles in the stats...

2:51 pm

My sister's granddaughter calls her Granna. I love that. I was hoping for GraMolly, but it doesn't look like that's going to happen.

2:51 pm

Yes I have a twin sister

2:52 pm

Refresh Jes

2:53 pm

well poo. reloaded and now they match, because i have 4 words left... it's like the list is growing! :P

2:53 pm

st7/36 please?

2:53 pm

I always, always, always wanted to be a twin. For no reason i could ever understand.

2:54 pm

And Molls .... Early days yet. Never say never...

2:54 pm

Seems I'm in repetative mode this evening. Sorry

2:55 pm

We fought literally tooth and nail when we were little. We mainly avoided each other in our teens. We are now best of friends even ifit took 70 years!!!

2:56 pm

I'd say you just described most twins' relationships, Deeha.

2:57 pm

So your sisters name is Rene - what's your first name?.. (Hoping it's Renata...)

3:00 pm

Her name is actually Irene, we called her Rene, then my daughter renamed her Fifi and her husbands family have given her a Muslim name Rehanna so it gets a bit confusing! Being born so soon after Wizard of Oz my name is Dorothy!!

3:01 pm

Cant believe anyone remembers Rene and Renata!! They only made one record didn't they!

3:02 pm

"Her name was McGill, and she called herself Lil, but everyone knew her as Nancy."

3:02 pm

nobody has st7/36?

3:02 pm

OK folks I am off to watch Downton. Have a good evening all

3:03 pm

bye, deeha

3:03 pm

howdy, sam

3:03 pm

Howdy from the lurk section.

3:03 pm

Proof of how I excel at table quizzes. I retain the most ridiculous information, yet forget important stuff

3:04 pm

I gave up on Downton. Last season was so lame I couldn't muster any interest in watching this year.

3:04 pm

Lol, Sam!!

3:04 pm

I have st7/32, not 36

3:05 pm

st7...flummoxed, unable to figure something out.

3:05 pm

i swear i tried that, molly. thanks.

3:05 pm

TY Molly. Thought that one required a Y

3:06 pm

I've never seen it spelled without a y except for here.

3:06 pm

gh6?

3:06 pm

That one had me st7/36

3:07 pm

g + not him + two vowels, if you can dig that word

3:07 pm

thanks again

3:08 pm

and fireworks once i get the grid to re-accept the first word I put in (da4/5).

3:08 pm

Ruru, boy genius, got that gh in record time at the flip

3:09 pm

Hi folks

3:09 pm

woot to jes

3:10 pm

I'm with you on the Downton thing Molls. Never did a series fail to live up to expectations like DA

3:10 pm

Hello Bich. :-)

3:11 pm

I liked it. I don't know if I want it to continue beyond this year

3:11 pm

Hi Soods

3:12 pm

On the plus side... Son of Soodle treated his elderly mother to a particularly nice Chinese take-away this evening!

3:13 pm

Yeah for Soodle's kids. Winners all of them

3:21 pm

Yee Gods, would you stop referring to yourself as "elderly"?

3:21 pm

I thought boyo was out slugging poteen and shooting pheasants.

3:29 pm

*Ding* The timer went off

3:30 pm

Indeed he was Molly. The pheasant population in the hinterlands of Chez Soodle has been decimated. Whilst I don't necessarily approve of feathered creatures being shot, I thank the stars that he is shooting pheasants, not heroin.

3:31 pm

Well, we would all be vegetarians if hunters did not hunt. Glad Son Of Soodle enjoyed a testosterone filled afternoon.

3:32 pm

And hell yes on the heroin comment.

3:39 pm

Hi, soodle and all

3:40 pm

As darkness falls early, it will soon be time to light the first fire of the year and recite "Old Woman Of The Roads" before it, which has been re-written as "A Woman Who Needs Her Lake House"

3:41 pm

hi all

3:41 pm

I am not happy about early darkness

3:42 pm

Hi, Peri

3:46 pm

I like closing the curtains and settling down for the evening.

3:46 pm

cire

3:46 pm

My usual entry card - a free word

3:48 pm

I'd rather have early darkness and be able to walk the dogs in daylight in the morning

3:49 pm

Don't you walk your dogs at night?

3:50 pm

yes, but they've been sleeping all night and need to wake up their elimination activity. If you get my meaning

Very polite expression bichon :)

4:04 pm

I try to make things civilized here

4:04 pm

I hate waking up in the dark in the morning. It's cold.

4:09 pm

That's it for me. Anyone need a clue?

Congrats bichon 😊 no clues for me thanks, still need too many

4:18 pm

se7 pls

4:18 pm

nm found it on morewords

4:19 pm

se + first 3 of grain that comes with Chinese food + not out

4:19 pm

Damn, fell for it again

"And all" waves at L

5:11 pm

How's your hand/arm doing?

5:11 pm

lilliann, welcome

5:11 pm

Waves back :)

5:12 pm

My hand is itching which I take as a sign of healing.

5:13 pm

So L, you're okay with being called Lilliann now?

5:13 pm

yes, i would say that is a good sign.

5:13 pm

Molly, what are you insinuating?

5:14 pm

Believe me, i've been called worse lately so Lilliann is better than owt, but yes i do prefer lilli or as you call me..L

5:15 pm

Then that is what I will call you - lilli

5:15 pm

I'm sorry but Molly and I do not get on. I will go and lurk.

5:16 pm

I call her L-Cheeks

5:16 pm

Jax, I've said on here i prefer my name shortened(name on here) and my real name as when i was younger and i was in trouble with my parents they would say my whole name instead of the shortened version i was used to

5:17 pm

Jax, aslong as you don't swear at me you can call me owt and don't go.i came to chat because i saw you here

5:17 pm

Hi ru, it's better than big cheeks i suppose!!:)

5:18 pm

No butts about that

5:19 pm

5:19 pm

Ouch

5:21 pm

Well you aren't the only one L. 😉

5:21 pm

Actually, i must be really sad as i've missed them!!

5:21 pm

5:22 pm

Very much so

5:22 pm

Your jokes may be the worst i've ever heard but they still may be giggle:)

5:22 pm

5:22 pm

Hi Crossy, nice to see you

5:23 pm

It's a Gnome!!

5:23 pm

nice to see you as well

5:23 pm

I would prefer to see your butt at the crack of dawn however...😂

5:24 pm

Believe me, you wouldn't!!

5:24 pm

As usual, the chat has gone down hill

5:24 pm

Lol

5:25 pm

tushies everywhere!!

5:25 pm

I've missed you two

5:26 pm

Glad you are back too

5:26 pm

My jokes are in arrears apparently

5:27 pm

aye, i'm sure...like a hole in the head or a badd tooth that keeps playing up!! :)

5:27 pm

OMG...they get worse, if possible

5:28 pm

But i still can't help but giggle...

5:28 pm

and I am behaving.. lol

5:28 pm

You should have a colon at the end of that setence lill

5:29 pm

Jaxx, please come and chat

5:29 pm

You are Crossy...are you feeling ok?

5:29 pm

As my bairn says alot lately Ru...Whatever!!

5:30 pm

lol. I am already in the doghouse here. Must be on my best behavior:). I am making peace offering to her ofCrossy's famous pulled pork

5:31 pm

(to my beloved that is).. though jaxx can come for a plate as well:)

5:31 pm

Crossy? were you going to come over to the Uk this year?

5:31 pm

I thought last year, and that fell through. Then this year is filled with my studies..:(

5:31 pm

Doghouse? Whadja do crossy?

5:32 pm

woot! lil's back!

5:32 pm

Sounds lovely Crossy.What did you do?

5:32 pm

with my pork?

5:32 pm

Hi Welki:)

5:33 pm

give me your email and I can send you my secret recipie

5:33 pm

Oh dear, sometimes men are thick!!

5:33 pm

things are going well on your side of the screen? daughter/hubby ok?

5:33 pm

No, with your beloved

5:33 pm

ahh, that is a long and sordid tale full of woe..

5:34 pm

she will forgive... once I have groveled enough

5:34 pm

Aye the bairn turned 15 last week, so normal teenage dramas and hubby away as normal.I think he might be back in 10 days,hopefully for a couple of months

5:34 pm

How's everything going with you Welki?

5:36 pm

It's our 14th wedding anniversary tomorrow and i think i've probably seen him about 7 years worth in all that time,if that

5:38 pm

it's hard to maintain a marriage when there are so many long absences - on the other hand, it seems to work for you, so maybe there's some merit to it :)

5:38 pm

doing fine, thanks - hunkering down for the winter months

5:38 pm

Crossy, i've put my email up and will get rid of it in a few minutes.

5:40 pm

Yes, i must admit,i'm used to it and 2 months with him at home normally does my head in but i would prefer him to be back a bit more and longer than a day and a half every 6-9 weeks

5:41 pm

and - 15! hahaha, no light at the end of the tunnel for quite some time - girls can be rough at that age, sooo sensitive, but 'leave me alone,' you'll have your hands full. i know the two of you get on fine, but it's a rollercoaster from 15-19

5:41 pm

Let's hope you don't have too much snow Welki

5:41 pm

ok lilliann, got it :)

5:42 pm

we had about 2 feet of it in september (melted pretty fast) and five inches of snow since yesterday - it's coming :(

5:42 pm

Ok Crossy and ty

5:43 pm

Oh no...well keep warm and safe Welki.

5:44 pm

It's been a roller coaster with her since she was 13 so i'm sure i can cope with another few years...not!!

5:44 pm

ok, lilliann, it is on its way to you:)

5:44 pm

Thanks hin

5:44 pm

:)

5:45 pm

The bairn is going to cook us and our next door neighbours Christmas dinner this year but it will be a few days before Christmas as we are going away as normal

5:47 pm

time here to start thinking about getting supper started - it's GOOD to see you again, lil!

5:47 pm

Is five inches really a lot?

5:48 pm

Of snow...

5:48 pm

It was my idea to have Christmas before we went away as she didn't want to come on holiday and i think she misses not having her Grandad with us Christmas as he won't come with us and i suggested it to my hubby so he put it to her as his idea and suggested that she has to do everything...planning, cooking and let him know how much per head

5:48 pm

not really, but here, all the people have to learn to drive in it again. is really dangerous out there for the first few snowfalls

5:48 pm

You too Welki, tc hin and hopefully speak again soon.x

5:48 pm

Ah..

5:51 pm

by mid-December we are all in the groove once again, tearing down snow-packed roads at 80k with a latte in one hand, yelling at the kids in the back, and driving with one hand:)

5:52 pm

I didn't like driving in the snow and it's nowt like you get Crossy.I just hate being cold and the when it snows it makes me dizzy...so it wasn't a good combination

5:52 pm

5 inches is alot to some people Ru:)

5:53 pm

Well....

5:53 pm

best for driving is good solid snow-pack. The wet sloppy stuff is what causes collisions; that and ice

5:54 pm

Yeah when i lived in oregon we had black ice...hated that

5:54 pm

Aye, ours is normally sloppy and balck ice

5:55 pm

*black ice

5:56 pm

I dont care for snow

6:00 pm

My husband wants to go to Alaska and trek in the snow..i would prefer to go and sit in a jungle with Gorillas or Orangatangs...saying that, i'd need him to go with me so he could throw me over his shoulder to get there in the first place

6:00 pm

I'll just have to hire myself a young muscular fit man to do it:)

6:01 pm

And no Ru, that's not you...sadly :)

6:04 pm

Can anyone give me a clue for am7 please

6:05 pm

Found it

6:07 pm

Hoping I can see this grid...just worked a 12-hr day and I'm FRIED!!

6:07 pm

Fireworks!!

6:07 pm

Hooray for lilliann!!

6:07 pm

It's been great been chatting ,now i'm off to see Crossy's pulled pork recipe:)

6:07 pm

Hi Mimi:)

6:07 pm

Oh, lilliann, you would LOVE gorillas!

6:08 pm

I would love to see them in their own habitat Mimi.you need to finish your book hin, so i would know what it's like as it's never going to happen for me

6:09 pm

They are so gentle and intelligent. Used to have a 500 lb. male take M&M's from my hand with just two fingers, gingerly taking them so as not to hurt me.

6:09 pm

Pouring Mimi a drink,and putting your feet up on a pouffe and giving your shoulders a massage

6:10 pm

If you ever go to Tampa to Busch Gardens, their rainforest habitat has my baby Kishina and her mom Inaki. Kishina LOVES to clown with the people.

6:10 pm

Aww bless.I've seen loads of zoo programmes here and i know they like sweet things.

6:11 pm

Am going with a good friend, his wife and kids to a great zoo here...I'm SO much fun to go there with because I speak the languages!

6:12 pm

And I can tell the kids things no one else does.

6:13 pm

i watched a programme here a few weeks ago and it showed a male gorilla who had to have his arm amputated because is hand was shot to pieces, literally as he got shot when he was a baby and his mother got killed, but he was 6 i think when they did it and the lady who is English and bought him up in this gorilla centre found it difficult to make the decision because she wasn't sure how the other gorillas would then treat him, but they all mothered him, which was lovely to see

6:14 pm

If i ever get to the States, i will definitely go there then Mimi

6:14 pm

((Mimi))

6:14 pm

You have a very lovely place there in England with the Aspinal Zoo...amazing work with gorillas and many others.

6:14 pm

((crossy))

6:14 pm

You'll have to come here Mimi

6:15 pm

I just might do that...have wanted to for years. This same friend I'm going to the zoo with just did a tour of England with his wife and kids a couple of months ago. They just loved it...especially Bath.

6:16 pm

I could not get so close and not go to Scotland.

6:16 pm

Did they go on a coach trip Mimi?

6:17 pm

If you ever do get here, lilliann, I'll personally escort you wherever you like!

6:17 pm

I used to live near both of the Aspinall Zoos and have been loads of times and loved watching the gorillas

6:17 pm

I don't really know what kind of trip.

6:18 pm

We only live acouple of hours away from Scotland and seeing as hubby works there alot, he could tell you alot about the history

6:18 pm

One day I must go to Africa.

6:19 pm

I'm a big Highlander fan, lilliann...heart palpitations just thinking about Adrian Paul...

6:19 pm

It's just that the trips that husband does, he takes Americans all over the UK and one place is Bath

6:19 pm

And I adore the accent!

6:20 pm

I should say Great Britain and Ireland..rpublic and Southern

6:20 pm

Am watching the hummingbirds at my feeder now...love them. Raised one once...every vet said it couldn't be done but I did it!

6:21 pm

Wow!! I've never seen a humming bird but i have seen a humming bird moth which i thought was great

6:21 pm

The cats love watching them, too. But it gets a little hectic with other birds as well and sometimes I feel like Tippi Hedren.

6:22 pm

I've been to Africa, but not to the Countries that i can do a safari, but would love to.

6:22 pm

We have a place here in Arizona called Ramsey Canyon that has bungalows with lots of feeders and hummers come there from all over. They're used to people so you can get quite close and some will perch on your finger.

6:23 pm

Hummers are gutsy little birds...they tame down easily.

6:24 pm

Now that I finally have a camera I'm going to take some pics of my beautiful balcony patio and hope to get some pics of hummers, too.

6:24 pm

Tippi Hedren, was that the actress in "the Birds" and isn't she Melanie Griffiths mam?

6:25 pm

Yes on both counts!

6:25 pm

She also has a foundation and a rehabilitation center for orphaned, abused, unwanted exotic animals. She's amazing.

6:25 pm

Oh good, my memory does work sometimes :)

6:26 pm

It's called Shambala.

6:26 pm

It would be great to see some of your photos Mimi.I'll have to look that up

6:27 pm

Sorry, folks, didn't mean to monopolize the chog...I just love taking about animals.

6:27 pm

I will post some on Babble Facebook, lilliann.

6:28 pm

I don't go on there anymore Mimi

6:28 pm

I'll em them to you, dear.

6:28 pm

OK..time to get food...have only eaten once since 4 am and am getting peckish. Have a good evening, everyone, and hugs all around.

6:29 pm

Brilliant.ty.I'm suppose to go on there but will explain in an em

6:30 pm

....and the martinis have begun...

6:30 pm

Enjoy your well needed food hin. It's great talking to you as normal.big hugs and tc.i'm off to bed now so bye all, sweet dreams andtc

6:36 pm

Not worried about ebola lill?

6:54 pm

I am fortuneate; I have stzred death in the face so many times that I have no fear of ebola--or little else for that matter. Beaides, worrying about tomorriw does as much good as trying to empty the ocean with a tea- spoon:)

6:54 pm

Darn typos. Just read through them. Am on tablet

6:55 pm

how are you on speeding head on trucks crossy ?

6:55 pm

:D

6:56 pm

Well , if agruck hits me head on know thetruck driver will be sharing in the fun

6:56 pm

Been run over already... was a pita

6:57 pm

pita?.. did you falafel all over yourself?

6:57 pm

The morphine was nice though;))

6:57 pm

oh.. I have never had morphiine

6:57 pm

Lol now that is a good one ru;)

6:58 pm

:D

6:58 pm

Morphine makes a new man out of you... and he will want some too :)

6:58 pm

oh.. never been in that much pain I guess

6:59 pm

Break a few bones in your leg and back all at the same time and you will get there:)

7:00 pm

oh please.. not me .. I don't want to break anything

7:00 pm

Mean nurses cut you off after a week or so tnough:(

7:01 pm

hmm.. I've never been in a hospital for overnight

7:02 pm

You are not missong much

7:02 pm

I guess so.

7:02 pm

Missing

7:03 pm

I have been mistyping all day too

7:03 pm

I think I hit the enter button too quickly

7:06 pm

a problem in my life I guess :D

7:11 pm

I never let spelling get in the eay of a good story:)

7:12 pm

Way

7:13 pm

That,

7:14 pm

That is what spell check in ms word is for:)

7:41 pm

hi again (i've had morphine - and understand 100% how easy it could be to become addicted)

7:44 pm

oops - time lapse.

8:01 pm

I was st7/36 by this grid for a while, but now the firewords! tx all cluers

8:01 pm

ty! was just looking for that one

8:04 pm

se7?

8:07 pm

se + a 5-letter poison

8:07 pm

ty, good clue

8:34 pm

hi all

8:43 pm

Heya jmc ..

9:46 pm

fw... anyone need any clues before I head out?

9:47 pm

<---clueless here

9:47 pm

Hi Ru... how're things?

9:48 pm

nice today.. did enjoy my day

9:48 pm

what were you up to?

9:49 pm

I had to help my ex do some cleaning on the house and run a few errands for her.. dropped off some donations for a fund-raiser, watched some football, made a nice simple dinner.. went for a nice walk with Dylan

9:49 pm

:D all in all a nice day

9:50 pm

congrats on finishing spell..

9:50 pm

Dylan = dog? Sounds productive. What did you make for dinner? If I recall you're a pretty reasonable cook (at least on paper).

9:51 pm

Dylan = dog .. (buddy)

9:51 pm

Yes, this one was a bear. Learned a few words though... Never heard of gh 6/27 before

9:51 pm

I roasted some chicken breasts with herbs de provence lemon, honey, and made a 5 bean salad with a citrus vinaigrette

9:52 pm

simple.. easy.. light

9:52 pm

Sounds yummy.

9:52 pm

I am a good cook.. not necessarily on paper though

9:53 pm

cooking is easy for me really

9:53 pm

We've two kitties, but when we go for our walk in the morning we often run into a neighbor who has three dogs, so hubs and I each take one from her.

9:53 pm

I go in spurts with my cooking. Right now I cannot get myself motivated.

9:53 pm

I have to be motivated.. no one else will cook for me :D

9:53 pm

Usually I'm a reasonable cook, but I have stories from my earlier days! ;-p

9:54 pm

Honestly, I'd be more motivated if someone else would clean up after me!

9:54 pm

I made red pepper/heritage tomato soup last week with bacon and grilled shallots.. that was yummy and I made grilled cheese sandwiches.. that's what I was craving

9:55 pm

I have to say.. I used to leave the kitchen not cleaned up completely, but DC Seain here got me started on waking up to a clean kitchen in the a.m. and I do have to say I really like it

9:56 pm

We have a restaurant near here that was just grilled cheese sandwiches and cold cereal. (They're still in business 5 years later.)

9:56 pm

have you tried Manhattan Beach Post yet?

9:56 pm

or Fishing with Dynamite?

9:57 pm

those two restaurants are close to you

9:57 pm

I despise having to deal with cleaning up the next day. I will work until 3am if I have to after company to get things cleaned up, but I cant deal in the am.

9:57 pm

yeah.. I am like that now too

9:57 pm

No to both. Looking up Dynamite now.

9:57 pm

it's so much better

9:58 pm

MB Post is fantastic. I would eat there once a week If I lived near you

9:58 pm

If they were up here in Napa the line would go around the block twice

10:00 pm

As I suspected, Dynamite has nothing on the menu for me (vegan). It's hard to get us over to the west side these days. We have many good restaurants here

10:00 pm

oh.. vegan.. I didn't know

10:00 pm

several vegan restaurants in venice though

10:01 pm

When were were on the Big Island BV (before vegan), we discovered the Seafood Shack. OMG, we wound up eating there 4 out of 5 nights! It was so good I wrote to the chef and begged him to open a location here. No luck

10:01 pm

MB Post has a lot of vegan stuff I think.. especially if you let them know

10:02 pm

I tried veganism in my teenage years .. mostly to piss my folks off

10:02 pm

After a cursory viewing of the menu, it appears we'd do fine there.

10:02 pm

My dad would always say.. "pass the Dead Flesh Dorothy" to my mom when I'd be eating brocoli

10:03 pm

I was a very, very rebellious youth.. who knew huh?

10:03 pm

We went vegan after a significant bout of cancers in my family (and diabetes, and heart disease). And they don't live that long

10:04 pm

Ha! I like your dad. We changed the subway jingle to "Eat Flesh"

10:04 pm

oh.. there's a great reason

10:04 pm

No way Ru, you --rebellious? I never would have guessed

10:05 pm

that's what I thought.. really.. I compromise on almost everything :D

10:05 pm

this day-light savings time has completely screwed me up though

10:05 pm

I feel like going to bed soon and it's only 8

10:06 pm

It's a great reason in theory, but who knows if it will actually result in a healthier / longer life. (Or if it just feels longer, eh?)

10:06 pm

Wow... Rebellious Ru, going to bed at 8pm.

10:06 pm

well.. better safe than sorry I'd say spell

10:07 pm

On a lighter note, what is your best recipe?

10:07 pm

I could read for a bit and come back for the flip.. but I'm afraid I'll fall asleep and wake up for the 700 club

10:08 pm

hmmm.

10:08 pm

it involves meat.. so I wouldn't want to upset you

10:08 pm

I had an AMAZING recipe for chix thighs on the grill. It was a balsamic rosemary honey marinade. We would eat it straight from the grill.

10:09 pm

HELLO 60 to go

10:09 pm

that sounds great. I love rosemary

10:09 pm

Ha! 700 club. I can't imagine any channel that promotes that show on your tv

10:09 pm

hi harp

10:09 pm

Hello Jane. Let me know if you need clues

10:09 pm

I meant the chat late at night :D

10:10 pm

Ru - Ha! I'm 50, not 20... you can't upset me if you talk about meat.

10:11 pm

So you've spent time down here. Ever see the Culver City Meat trucks rolling by. Their slogan "You Can't Beat Our Meat."

10:11 pm

my best dinner is really grilled Colorado (Marinated) lamb loin chops with rosemary/garlic flan, and a grilled shitaki/chantrelle mushroom compote with a rich balsamic reduction sauce

10:12 pm

o's are omitted!

10:12 pm

I made this + several other courses for my friends 65 birthday a few months back in NY

10:12 pm

Sounds rather gourmet like, Ru.... and sounds like quite the birthday gift.

10:12 pm

NJ Jane.

10:13 pm

the first course was grilled Scallops on crispy potatoes and drizzled with white truffle oil and deep fried black olive spirals

10:14 pm

the second course was a beet salad with oranges, fennel, and blue cheese with a basalmic dressing

10:14 pm

That sounds amazing... even without the scallops.

10:14 pm

dessert was blueberry crème brulee with Chateau D'Yquem

10:15 pm

The lamb was the main course... and what was for dessert?

10:15 pm

I leveled the room

10:15 pm

I was cooking in this teeny tiny Long Island kitchen

10:15 pm

BTW, are you watching the Ravens / Steelers game?

10:15 pm

no.. I can't stand ben rothesberger

10:16 pm

I lived on LI for awhile... we didn't have a teeny kitchen. My kitchen here is teeny.

10:16 pm

Ah.. we just had back to back amazing TDs

10:16 pm

re6?

10:16 pm

it's more challenging to cook in a tiny kitchen

10:16 pm

we?

10:16 pm

So, why did you not cook me a special vegan dinner for my 50th

10:16 pm

re + cut the fat

10:17 pm

thanks

10:17 pm

you didn't invite me. I do cook lots of veggie meals

10:17 pm

re 6/21 to cut the bangs again

10:17 pm

I will some day though.

10:17 pm

Hubby and me.

10:18 pm

get you guys to come up to Napa for a visit

10:18 pm

I was in Muir Beach with the Mr and Mom.

10:18 pm

I love Muir Beach.. beautiful

10:18 pm

Muir Beach for the 50th, that is

10:18 pm

oh.. to be 50 again

10:19 pm

He rented a house there; it was really special.

10:19 pm

nice

10:19 pm

I just turned 60 not long ago

10:19 pm

You know, everyone says that... but to try remember what it was like when you hit 50. Approaching it from this side is not fun.

10:19 pm

am7?

10:19 pm

10:20 pm

amicie

10:20 pm

multiple houses of horror harp

10:20 pm

oops

10:20 pm

am7

10:20 pm

thanks lol

10:20 pm

Jane, expanding on Ru's clue.. they're on Long Island

10:21 pm

Yes, I was wondering that myself TC

10:21 pm

they sound delicious

10:21 pm

you get firm black olives.. and dip them in a milk/flour/egg batter// and deep fry them in canola oil.. just briefly until they are crispy and brown.. they are amazing with scallops and truffles

10:21 pm

36 to go. i am so hungry! would you people mind ceasing all talk about food until i get finished?

10:22 pm

you have to use a paring knife to cut them into spiral curls

10:22 pm

very sharp knife

10:22 pm

thanks, I love black olives. do you spiral them first,

10:22 pm

spiral first

10:22 pm

you screw up a few until you get the hang of it.. it's like peeling an apple

10:22 pm

Sounds yummy, but perhaps too much work! (Plus I don't really fry things)

10:22 pm

that's going to be on my menu tomorrow night. yum

10:23 pm

spell you would be a pain in the ass to cook for :D

10:23 pm

LOl

10:23 pm

Oh no, if you want to do the work, I'm totally okay with that.

10:24 pm

But it does take a few weeks to get used to the "no meat, no eggs, no dairy" thing

10:24 pm

to do the potatoes.. you slice them really thin.. and brown them in a sauté pan.. with olive oil.. until they are crispy and golden brown.. lay them out on paper towels until they dry.. then just put them inm a warm oven before serving

10:25 pm

and how, may I ask, did you prepare the lamb?

10:25 pm

the scallops you bread on one side and sear them on higher heat and then when golden brown.. flip them and touch them until they don't jiggle and are firmer.

10:26 pm

place the potatoes in a line on the plate .. place a couple scallops on top.. decorate with deep fried olives and arugula and drizzle with white truffle oil and salt and pepper

10:26 pm

The whole meal sounds wonderful!

10:26 pm

c'mon you guys...this late at night for me here and you're making me hungry!!!

10:26 pm

the lamb I marinate in soy sauce, lemon juice, garlic, shallots, orange peel, rosemary, and salt and pepper.. and I just grill them on the barbeque

10:27 pm

If we ever wind up moving away from here, I'm going to miss the rosemary right outside my door. I love it too!

10:28 pm

Sorry Jeanne...

10:28 pm

I use it all the time.. I think I was born in the south of france in a past lifetime

10:28 pm

were they lamb chops?

10:28 pm

small loin chops from Colorado

10:29 pm

not the rack of lamb chops.. but thicker loin chops.

10:29 pm

they are sort of triangular shaped

10:29 pm

s'okay....just afraid the drooling will short out my keyboard. ..

10:29 pm

I trim off all the fat and cook them quickly to be medium rare

10:29 pm

thanks for all the info. I don't like to cook everyday stuff, but would rather occasionally make a special meal and this sounds like the very right one

10:30 pm

I'm happy to do the recipe more exactly for you if you'd like it's pretty easy

10:30 pm

I did it for 13 people in a tiny kitchen and it only took me two hours to cook

10:31 pm

lots of prep.. but once you get things fired. it goes really fast

10:31 pm

Thank you so much. I'm heading up to the big city where there is a really nice meat market so that I can get the lamb.

10:31 pm

Ru, do you wing it when you cook, or do you work off recipes?

10:31 pm

I wing it... I never measure

10:31 pm

I have been cooking since I was 5 years old

10:32 pm

Sounds like you are quite the accomplished chef.

10:32 pm

my wife would show me a picture of a dinner in a magazine and say this looks good and I could take a quick glance at the ingredients and make it later that night

10:32 pm

I love cooking for people..

10:33 pm

10:35 pm

Seitan, soy, beans, nuts, kale, quinoa....

10:35 pm

oh.. Kale I eat a lot of. quinoa is messy

10:35 pm

You used to be a vegetarian...

10:35 pm

Beans I cook a lot from dried beans

10:36 pm

Yes, but you can toast the quinoa before cooking instead of rinsing it... makes life easier.

10:36 pm

yeah.. but I didn't know what I was doing .. I was just eating whatever my mom didn't over cook (as far as vegetables)

10:36 pm

10:42 pm

ten inches is a lot.. 3-5 isn't that bad

10:42 pm

it was a lot for a first snowfall....esp after such a warm fall....

10:42 pm

I own up to my wussiness. I've lived through 35+ years of miserable winters. You're more than welcome to them.

10:42 pm

10:43 pm
