And a good mornin' to you lady.
*hugs peach* Great to see you, how are you doing today?
Better than yesterday. How 'bout you?
body is giving me trouble, but otherwise I am great. Very much enjoying Rose and Don's visit. They are in Scotland for a few days now, miss them already.
Sorry to hear about your body problems....doing more may have some time adjusting, eh?
Sending healing thoughts now.
Sending healing thoughts now.
Sending healing thoughts now.
yeah, it is always hard to find a balance. Silly body does not simply follow my mind's images of how it should be :D
thank you, dear one. *healing thoughts and prayers to you as well*
Thanks so much, hon. Try to get to a quiet place and just let it happen. I just sent a prayer.
thank you so much.
My pleasure.
that hit the mark, dear one. Thank you again.
You are so welcome.

You too, dear.

hello friends
Hello, trif. I hope your day goes well.
The weather here is soul-crushing. I quote Forrest Gump: "One day it started to rain. It didn't stop for four months." It's May 14, it's 38 degrees out, I'm wearing tights and an undershirt under my professional dress, and the heat is still on at my house. ON MAY 14TH. Everyone is pissy and over it.
wicked pissy
and not in the usual lovely boston way, bichon. It's just so gross. People have mold growing on them
I'm so sorry. But it can't last much longer.
We've never had the heat on in mid May before this
Absolutely NEVER bichon. I usually shut it off April 1st. Seriously. I am sure my oil company is delighted, but I am not. We can't even just "oh well wear a sweater" and power through. 38 degrees is untenable.
anyway, sorry to be a wet blanket. I love babble, and will be pleasant and cheery for the rest of the day I promise
and here i am, in alberta. had the air on last night and will have the heat on this weekend. ahhhh, springtime!
I'm shivering here with you Trif
This, of course, means a direct plunge from chilly Spring into Sweltering Summer. Like going from first to fourth with no clutch.
exactly molly. Though this weekend promises two sunny days in the 60s.
With all this dampness, we will be inundated with mozzies, so there is THAT to look forward to. Sigh.
could I have stats for the 9?
past of eu8
thanks magpie
you're welcome. it's a rare 9 I found all by myself.
hello
What is a mozzie?
isle
trif?
mosquito. sorry, had to help a student
lol - the is5 word comes up a lot in oceanography, and EVERY time the students pronounce the s
no problem trif I don't know if you care or not but on ryan and Kelly this a.m. I saw a behind the scenes as to how King Kong is controlled. People and electronics, wires etc. it was really cool
j stats?
and clue for the eu 9 pls?
got the j
eu8 to pay tribute at a funeral, maybe?
ty summer
yw
and the 8/9 are extensions of that?
got them never mind
I gtg will be back...
that is cool! I have to make a huge, fully articulated monster dracula come january, so I should try to catch up with King Kog
any woman on here will attest that "gyno" is a word
agreed, trifioso
interesting list of new words that made it into the dictionary this year - "hangry", "adorbs", etc.
makes sense. both in use for years.
i've noticed 'no bueno' instead of 'no/not good' lately.
I believe twofer is in the dictionary too
huh.
trif what is the articulated monster Dracula for?
hi dc though yes I think twofer may have actually be a word before but with a different meaning
twofers are too much work :D
heh
we are doing a true horror version of dracula next winter - 80 cast members and all!
nice!
gallons of karo syrup and ketchup to follow, lol
with a little bit of Dawn -- a couple drops -- for washability.
absolutely
they are all going to be in a very sticky situation Trif:)
lol mlf
sucks to be dracula!
yeah he does suck
i, the lighting guy, got covered in 'blood' on a film i worked on last Spring.
corner e stats pls?
i hear the actor for dracula has a cold trif?
he's been coffin a lot
sea snakes, MLF
dc whose company?
nevertheless, I am a big fang of his, ruru
oh duh ty
80 actors would drive one batty
as long as they are not children or animals it shouldn't be as bad :)
secondo stayed in a gorgeous house last summer in New Rochelle, NY. The owners have lived there for decades, and, loving the old-time look of the place, never fixed it up much. At the advice of a friend, they listed it as an available property for film shoots - within a MONTH they were booked out - at the tidy sum of $1000 a DAY!
wow!
Personally, I wish "hangry" and "adorbs" would disappear from use forever.
I know right? I was so happy for the family, very nice people
I like hangry. Applies to my beloved in spades
I hate adorbs remind me of the valley girls
language must evolve, or else we would be in a real state
actually trif It applies to a lot of people when they are hungry lol
its a good word.
i don't mind it
i wish somehow the phrase "it is what it is" would disappear for good
I am such a massive word ne4, it's not even funny. I love reading the etiology of foreign words....there are some truly fantastic german words that I would love to come into use here. Schaudenfraude is fabulous, and another german word for when you eat when you are sad. The literal translation is "grief bacon" - LOVE THAT
well people would be grieving if something ever happened to bacon or htat it wasn't good on everything anymore
exaclty!
exactly! sorry, fat fingers today
like i always say i can spell i just cant type correctly
EL 7 clue pls?
funny, I had a student like that once - she was an american child whose parents sent her to a local french school, as they thought it was "really cool" - which it was, but they should have researched it farther. They assumed it was half french, half english. Nope. All French, all the time. By 8th grade they realized their daughter could SPEAK English perfectly, as that is what they did at home, but she could not READ English. Not one word
oops
twofer definition has been updated now, it means what it does now. i don't remember what the definition was before
MLF, Growth Media Productions
does enable accept twofer?
trif i don't think so
yes: twofer does not exist in the puzzle
cool dc
sigh. perhaps if it was spelled the welsh way, with no vowels, it would.
i know someone who is the co owner of Ashwood Projects in Fl
dc is that located in wv or va?
I wonder if the studios pulling out of georgia will have any effect on the new legislations?
why would that be trif?
the idea is to hit them in the pocketbook
oh
EL 7?

Hello all! 13 stubborn words to go.
fw
good job!
ty...need clues?
thanks, I'm skimming through the chat right now. looks like they are mostly here already.
Not finding that au 8, even with the clue 😢
car + spirit that lives in a bottle with a sometimes vowel ending
I think it’s the car that’s baffling me.
German car with 4 letters?
the car is not a brand of car it is a general word
Got it! Thanks
thanks Molly
Exhausted from touring around.
Do you not use the au word for car in UK/Australia?
Sure but I’d missed the word completely
We’ve been touring ireland -still are and I’m pretty tired from the pace we’ve been going at.
i hope you enjoy the trip anyway, Lizlin
It’s amazing. So beautiful.
should au4 acquaintance...
😊 Scottish, I think.
indeed! Scots never had the vowel shift, so English diverged, if still retaining a high mutual intelligibility
Ve no idea how to pronounce the Irish words I’ve seen.
my name is Irish: Séain, pronounced as 'shane'.
Thanks. I’d always thought it was pronounced Sean - so I’ve learned something.
Séain means 'Sean's".
Got to get ready to go out for dinner. Enjoy your day and thanks all for help with the clues.
mother's father's middle name put into Irish and made possessive.
Hi all! Is anyone experiencing difficulties with More Words? I have entered "da--" twice now and it tells me that there are no words that match.
i am now, wasn't minutes ago. I tried several searches, and they all failed.
Thanks, dc. Glad to know that it is not just me. I am sure they are having issues and hopefully they will resolve it soon.
it seems back up. I think they rolled out an update. I refreshed, and voilà .
The look has changed some.
Good to know. I will try again.
try atozwordfinder
Interesting. While More Words does look a little different, it still does not work for me. I will try restarting my computer and see if that helps.
i'm using Chrome on a MacBook Pro, FWIW
Chris, I have never used AtoZ word finder.
dc, I am using a HP lap top.
I use it all the time - works for me
good morning all
resources tab at the top of this page works much the same as a2z
Resources tab? Are you referring to Lickety Expert?
kyes
FYI to the non-Expert users, there is no Resources tab here
sorry - been using expert ever since lickety first introduced it, so tend to forget that not everyone has downloaded it. Used BJ's list before that --- didn't seem to need it as much back then. I guess there weren't so many foreign and manufactured words then
I just suggested atoz because some people were saying they were having problems with the program they usually use.
laud
OMG pardon my mistake. Just arrived and did not make sure where the cursor was. . . anyway, hi everyone
hi bugs
Funny how GO 7/40 is in the grid and the other spelling for the word was in yesterdays grid.
Hello :-)
hi nan. we are having rain today which is good because the fires have already started
hello zooz
Hello, Bugs
we've had a couple in the interior as well
I'm not looking forward to another summer where we can't go outside for the smoke
me too. last year was unusual and I hope it stays unusual
I guess that's what we have to put up with until certain politicians pull their heads out of the sand
yes. I am not impressed with our federal governments record on helping citizens do more about climate change. Right now it feels like they are punishing us.
2 words from the new year's song today
time for me to list -- hosting coffee and dessert for 8 tonight, so need to get cracking. Cake has cooled and ready to fill
enjoy your evening. it sounds like fun
something we do once a month with a group of our friends -- the host picks a restaurant to go to for dinner then has everyone over for coffee and dessert (maybe another drink or liquer :D) afterwards
au 8 please? -- assuming it begins with the car
last part sounds like the spirit who comes out of the bottle ;-)
and I don't mean whiskey
oh darn - and I was thinking limoncello or something
:-)
am I am I right in thinking of some form of the drink made from juniper berries?
I have never tried that, but do like Bacarci Limon
ha ha....NO, I mean the little "spirit" who comes out of the bottle.....e.g. "Barbara Eden"
limoncello is much sweeter - more like amaretto only lemon flavoured. Making limoncello cake for tonight
ah - ty diane
Sounds delicious !
You were on a "one track mind", with the type of spirit !! LOL
yes - one of our group doesn't like chocolate, so.... the next best thing :)
I just looked up Limoncello Cake from Olga's Flavour Factory.....Ohhhhh, but it sounds delicious. Does your recipe have a cream cheese frosting? I have some lemon lovers in my family!
no - a limoncello glaze. I just use the Baccardi Rum Cake recipe you can find on line and substitude limoncello for the rum. Then I slice the cake in half and fill it with lemon curd and top it with whipped cream and a slice of mango when serving.
*also substitute lemon pudding for the vanilla
Okay, this recipe went one step further....after the glaze, it is frosted with a cream cheese frosting. THIS is going to be my next special birthday cake for someone. I love to bake and I do make the Bacarcdi rum cake quite often. And speaking of baking, I have bread about to come out of the oven. Enjoy your evening !
bye diane
