3:17 am

ahhhh, so lickety needs to change his ti4 now?

3:17 am

or Dr. God?

3:19 am

Lickety does the clues, Dr.G created Babble

3:19 am

no, lickety is the one who provides the precious list. and he is based here in ozland.

the time changed on my computer automatically at 2 am

3:42 am

3:44 am

first sh6, a scaleless european fish

3:45 am

really, flosey...why don't you know these words....* maniacal laughter here*

3:45 am

hahahah

3:46 am

we had a top notch fishery here - owner just sold out, haven't shopped there since but must try it

3:46 am

actually, I've gone off fish for a while

3:47 am

when we first moved out, we ate a lot of fresh caught salmon - guess I had my fill!

3:48 am

i hear you friend. fortunately i enjoy fish all year round...and my thyroid gland says thank-you.

3:48 am

ah, it's good for the thyroid?

3:49 am

I do love halibut though - as prepared by the fish & chip shops - deep fried in batter

3:49 am

absolutely. any food which puts iodine into your body is good.

3:50 am

oh, ok, I understand - mom was very ill when we were kids, she had to take iodine

3:50 am

and i loooove blue grenadier...grilled....fried...i don't care...just give it to me...* laughing*

3:51 am

never heard of that one

3:51 am

flosey, deep fried....my gut does not like it....

3:52 am

thought grenadier was a guard

3:52 am

well, I should have it occasionally

3:53 am

i am so trying to blot that pic out of my mind....

3:54 am

flosey, just find which fish give you the iodine your body needs.

3:54 am

I just say 'be still my gut because I am going to enjoy this'

3:55 am

oh, yeah?? and how often does it listen to you?

3:55 am

I don't have a problem - and, at my age, I will not anticipate it

3:56 am

mom had that problem when we were kids

3:58 am

Rose, I'm down to 35 so will keep these for tomorrow - will try to sleep now

3:58 am

thanks for the clues and have a good day

4:00 am

sweet dreams my dear friend. xoxox

4:06 am

di6 ready...*nearly got caught*....lol...bbl

4:50 am

i am so sleepy. xoxox sprite.

5:43 am

good morning all

5:44 am

aw poor rose. Sleep well, darling. Sorry to be so late.

5:52 am

a 'grenadier' in dutch is a soldier, one that is especially trained to throw grenades, flosey. So I guess it means that in other languages as well. I bet we stole it from the French, lol.

6:18 am

Happy Sunday all.

6:19 am

hi sukee :)

6:19 am

Clocks went forward last night so I feel I got up too early.

6:19 am

Hi sprite

6:20 am

Now this is a much better sized grid than yesterday.

6:20 am

ugh yes, not fun, going into DST. Let me see when we go.

6:21 am

3 weeks from now

6:21 am

It seems early here this year.

6:21 am

I wish they would get rid of it, no need today.

6:22 am

yes. We usually go around the start of Spring. I hate it. Messed up my system for weeks on end. Even worse now that I have to take all kinds of meds.

6:23 am

Same here, just when I get used to waking up without an alarm clock the time changes.

6:23 am

yes. And you are so right, it doesn't serve any goal nowadays. Sigh.

6:25 am

Watching my cat, lol. Sometimes he seems to walk into a room and forget what he came for :)

6:26 am

lol sukee :) They can be so silly, our pets.

6:26 am

And, it usually involves going to eat :)

6:27 am

chatted with a man when walking Terra and he told me his rescue dog insisted to be carried to bed every evening. When he switches off the lights, the dog lies down, turns his belly up and the man has to pick him up and carry him to his bench, and cover him with a blanket.

6:28 am

That is a spoiled dog :)

6:28 am

lol indeed. But so sweet.

6:28 am

When I don't go to bed on time, Boo sits beside my chair and stares at me until I get up.

6:29 am

I love that story, Sprite, my first smile of the day. Talk about spoiled, I've just gone up and down the stairs at least 20 times to serve husband in bed. I know he does't feel well, but neither do I!

6:29 am

Hi Ruby.

6:29 am

Terra does something similar. He sits down next to the door and starts making tiny sounds.

6:29 am

Hi Sukee

6:30 am

I had one good day and thought I was getting better, but the pain is back

6:30 am

Sorry.

6:30 am

hi ruby! I am afraid your husband does not really realise you are in pain, darling. He is in his own little world, confused and kinda lost. Not easy on you at all.

6:31 am

Fortunately, the housekeeper comes on her days off and makes a fire, feeds the birds and walks the dogs. It is lucky that she lives in the village

6:32 am

That is nice.

6:32 am

aw she is a blessing!

6:32 am

Can you imagine walking two such big dogs at the same time?

6:32 am

No, that is why I have cats :)

6:32 am

A cat.

6:32 am

They love her and are very well-behaved

6:34 am

I see this man out every day taking his dog just out to pee. He has a cane and it is a big dog, sometimes you think he is going to fall.

6:34 am

scary, sukee

6:34 am

I don't even try to walk the saller one. Even though she is good, I can't risk it

6:34 am

I actually see a lot of people in this building with big dogs who don't walk them, they just take them out to do their business and bring them back in. So unfair to the dogs.

6:35 am

In some cases I can understand it, but not most.

6:35 am

very. At some point one will have to decide not to get another big dog. Or enlist a walker service, if available.

6:35 am

smaller* (only 32 kg)

6:36 am

Luckily, we have a big, enclosed garden so dogs can stay out as much as they like. The only reason to walk them is so that they can "read the morning paper"

6:36 am

but the dogs have free roaming of the garden with you, ruby. They don't need hour-long walks to stay happy and fit.

6:38 am

woo hoo, got an 8 letter word by myself :)

6:38 am

lol, snap at that. Your dogs live in doggy heaven, that is for sure.

6:38 am

wtg sukee!

6:38 am

All dogs should have a yard.

6:39 am

very sart, sukee. I have one 7 and that' my biggest but it's nice to sit here and not have to go upstairs again

6:39 am

even smart*

6:39 am

that was one of the main reasons for buying this house, along with the view

6:40 am

I usually only get 4 and 5 letters words at first.

6:41 am

me too. Biggies usually last. But this grid is friendly, biggie-wise. Apart from the odd fish.

6:41 am

fireflies. Lovely grid.

6:41 am

wtg

6:42 am

yay, sprite!

6:42 am

I don't have all day to work on it sadly, have to do some writing that I put off from yesterday :)

6:42 am

have to be off. *hugs* to you both and take care.

6:42 am

Take care

6:42 am

sprite, my favorite puzze (aside from the chows) is pinwheels. Have you been able to locat "Ruby"

6:43 am

Haven't heard of that one.

6:47 am

have to lie down. Bye sukee

6:47 am

You take care too.

8:32 am

ouch une too bad

8:33 am

i also have her Shirley Temple doll -- it, on the other hand is in pretty good shape

8:33 am

i am still a big shirley temple fan

8:33 am

I had a Shirley Temple doll..dont know what happened to it. Must have been lost when we moved as a child

8:34 am

she and Shirley Temple were the same age and my grandmother curled her hair on "rags" to look like Shirley's locks LOL

8:34 am

i remember watching Shirley Temple movies on TV on Saturday morning :-)

8:34 am

most people did that to little girls back then

8:35 am

My mother used to take me to the beauty parlor for Shirley Temple curls. I had big curlers in my hair attached to this monstrous machine that was attached to the ceiling. But I had the prettiest curls for a day or two.

8:35 am

i have some of the sheet music for songs from her films :-))

8:35 am

awww Annie :-)

8:35 am

une that is so awesome

8:35 am

annie:)

8:36 am

My da live 5 minutes from the Quints home in North Bay. it has been preserved as a museum of sorts. Sadly, the poor girls were taken advantage of at the time, and used as props solely for financial gain.

8:37 am

Oh, I remember Shirley Temple dolls. My sister had one.

8:37 am

FRom what I read, the family became sort of wealthy from the pictures and stories about the girls published in newspapers and magazine

8:37 am

yes they were cross

8:38 am

I am sure they made money, but the cost was high as well.

8:38 am

cross they were abused and made into a mockery

8:39 am

I know. it is well known local history

8:39 am

I wonder if any of the Dionne girls are still alive

8:39 am

I know one died in the 70's but have not followed the others

8:40 am

only two of them are alive now

8:40 am

Annie, those curlers attached to the ceiling was a permanent wave machine. I remember those too.

8:40 am

one was a blood clot the other was epileptic seizures

8:41 am

Yes, Molly, that is what there were. Thank goodness, I wasnt subjected to a perm.

8:41 am

my mother gave me home perms. i had straight bangs and big fluffy hair over my ears....and the bangs were crooked

8:41 am

i have had perms before

8:41 am

she always did like my sister best

8:42 am

ivesy, Is that Grover in your icon? Love it.

8:43 am

yes annie.. i believe he is smoking weed lol

8:43 am

I remember going to the beauty parlor with my Mom and waiting while all the ladies sat under those hooded dryers

8:43 am

lol

8:43 am

that was quite the meeting place molly..

8:43 am

is TE 8 something i would know?

8:44 am

And there was a soda machine there. The kind with a glass door and Cokes in a bottle

8:44 am

i so liked the cola in those bottles. sometimes i can still find them

8:44 am

te8 ends in (think Math) not plus

8:45 am

I had one home perm as a child (Toni) I hated it. I looked like that woman in the Dilbert cartoon :(

8:45 am

8:47 am

4:36 pm

:oD

4:36 pm

i've seen the on7, but not the co7 - live and learn

4:37 pm

hey, how was restaurant week?

4:38 pm

great!....went to three places and all were good....one more to go this week....it's a two week event this year....

4:39 pm

tell me what you had

4:40 pm

(because, as you know, i covet your seafood availability)

4:41 pm

go to Mainerestaurantweek.com.....i went to Solo Bistro...40 Paper....and Cappy's.....will go the Hartsone Inn this week....if you click on the restaurants, you scroll down and see menus...

4:42 pm

will do

4:42 pm

most places offer three course meals for $35...a few are more (i won't go to those) and a few are a little less (like Cappy's)...

4:43 pm

the menus are lovely

4:43 pm

ironically, i did not have seafood for a main dish yet....had pork, pasta, and beef....my bro had calamari stuffed with sausage as an appetizer and a baked seafood dish with greek elements as a main course...

4:44 pm

had a wonderful appetizer with grilled artichokes and goat cheese...

4:45 pm

Clue or the first re6/18, please?

4:45 pm

looking forward to the Hartstone Inn.....nephew used to cook there....it's the fanciest place i will go to....

4:46 pm

you would be re**** if you forgot your anniversary

4:46 pm

that's the 6/21...

4:46 pm

i think i like cappy's menu best, so far - but cod with lobster risotto? that's right up my alley

4:46 pm

re 6/18...part of your eye...

4:46 pm

<-- crappy cluer (apologies)

4:46 pm

Thanks!

4:47 pm

my brother like's cappy's....it was an interesting menu there this year....lots of choices....

4:47 pm

there are fish on the menus that you just can't find anywhere else - fluke, for instance

4:48 pm

all the places i went to are within 8 miles of where i live except for Solo Bistro....that's an hour away....my neighbor wanted to go... very nice place...

4:48 pm

yes, there are some interesting dishes....

4:48 pm

we are lucky that some of our area restaurants participate.....

4:49 pm

cod cheeks - here, walleye cheeks are delicacies, but there's such limited fishing for them, you could live a lifetime without ever seeing any

4:49 pm

if i came for restaurant week, i'd have to reserve two seats on the plane for the ride home *lol*

4:50 pm

... and refinance the house :)

4:50 pm

lol....

4:51 pm

... we can't get fresh flounder here, either (mr. fluke's cousin)

4:51 pm

i am doing more this year than last....but it only comes once a year...

4:51 pm

we often see flounder on menus here....not always but often enough....

4:52 pm

steamed flounder with ginger and leeks -- one of my favs from mom

4:52 pm

sounds nice!

4:55 pm

i have to stop looking at those menus! so many restaurants!

4:56 pm

i may go to 3 Crow this week, too....3 courses for $25....can't beat that with a stick!

4:56 pm

we're having salmon tonight with asparagus and fried rice

4:57 pm

that sounds good....i am having stuffed peppers....i did not make them.....had them before and they were good.....

5:01 pm

i like stuffed peppers. do you like stuffed cabbage? there's a recipe floating around called 'unstuffed cabbage.' haven't tried it, sounds 'deconstructed,' but that's okay with me. easy is (usuallly) good :)

5:03 pm

yes, i have that recipe but have not tried it...

5:07 pm

later, pen - have a nice evening

5:07 pm

you, too....bye!

I am ok,but disappointed that I lose 3 days of Spring break

i'm just glad to have some slightly warner weather finally

7:45 pm

Yes,me too!I'm so done with this winter!One of the coldest

7:46 pm

This winter has been awful. There is a funny (but fake) story going around about a guy in Fargo being arrested for using a flamethrower to melt snow. I'm sure many people have fantasized about that though.

hello, all.

funny -- but why would he be arrested? flamethrower illegal?

7:49 pm

Well like I said, the story is fake, but I imagine it's illegal for a civilian to use a flamethrower.

without a flamethrower license

7:51 pm
