I have a food dehydrator

Ooohhh I can imagine, Bea!

8:30 am

I'm using them in potpourri and wreaths.

8:31 am

can you eat them too, Bea?

8:31 am

hi all

8:34 am

If you rehydrated them, you could eat them.

8:35 am

I just read up on uses for dehydrated oranges. You can put them in tea, sangria or mulled wine. Some people make sauces for things like pancakes with them.

8:36 am

Orange, cinnamon and cloves is a great smell at Christmas time.

8:39 am

Mmm! Sangria...

hello! I'm here with coffee. ready to find the last 28 c's and the rest.

8:44 am

I just took cinnamon rolls out of the oven...

8:45 am

Mmm, cinnamon rolls. The ac8 is stupid.

we almost have some chorizo here

8:45 am

yum bzz my husband and I ate a cinnamon roll last night from the grocery store

8:46 am

Sorry they aren't gluten free.

I'm used to it

8:46 am

I thought the same thing about ac8, Molly.

luckily cinnamon rolls aren't my favorite. I mean, I could eat them but I can also easily pass.

8:47 am

clue for the ac8 if I can find it without looking at the grid

8:47 am

My daughter has been making GF donuts in the airfryer.

8:47 am

I would never pass on a cinnamon roll

8:48 am

ac8 is one who is sort of an ac5/12

interesting. is she using a mix or from scratch? I would like an air fryer but need to get rid of some other things in the kitchen.

8:49 am

i have an 5/6 porbably not the right word

8:49 am

Yes, I believe she uses almond flour.

well, it's not the ac that falls out of a tree for squirrels

8:49 am

or the boat one

the boat one is not 5/12

8:50 am

oh ac right oops i hadn't typed in the squirrel one yet

8:51 am

Carla, do you have an instant pot?

yes, I use it quite a bit

8:52 am

sort of an ac 5/12 can i get a clue for that ac 5/12 pls/

8:53 am

Someone in a play

8:54 am

i got it!

8:54 am

ty bzz

well that's dumb, thanks

8:54 am

hokie you mean the ac8?

yes, what they were talking about

8:55 am

very strange word

8:56 am

I use my instant pot a lot as well. I put of getting one for the longest time. After I got mine, they came out with the instant pot and airfryer combo. I was mad...

I get the no7 with that ending, but the ac8 is ridic

of course! maybe I should get that. my IP has a broken foot and lists if I don't put a little stack of notepads under it.

8:57 am

no idea on that no word you are talking about but that's ok

no4 is a genre of books, movies, etc. kinda mystery related.

8:58 am

oh yes that wrod

8:59 am

the four that is

I have no idea where 21 more c's are.

8:59 am

i have the no 7 now ty

de nada

9:00 am

Some of the c words are obscure

9:00 am

21? i only have 28 of them

9:00 am

oh never would have guessed that lol

I played overnight. have only found 7 this morning.

I had a feeling about c's and obscure. how many are scottish?

9:01 am

I have all the C's and it was a slog getting them

9:02 am

I don't know about Scottish. One is French.

I need to work on the a's. bea's about to announce she has all those. ;) I only have 12/27.

turns out I didn't have the ac5/6 the ac8 was based on. could've sworn I had that.

9:05 am

yep i have 12 a words

9:05 am

Time to eat pizza! Will be back

and why isn't am5/16 a word? like I'm all am5 up about this

9:06 am

modern slang is not Enable's forte....

good point

9:07 am

it is a word...at least in the dictionary

I think I might have tried it at least 10 times now. :D but I did not type in mosh!

9:08 am

the dictiornary is more modern than Enable....not surprisingly....

9:08 am

of course, i can't spell today....may be part of my problem....

yeah, molly & I found a thing about enable one day. it was a word list made in the early 2000s by some smug people who thought it was the best thing ever.

9:11 am

well......it does help every once in awhile.

9:13 am

CArla, just so you know, I'm struggling with the As.

I just need 3 on the right one, but I only have 3 of the other one.

why do I keep trying meds too?

9:21 am

But it's Hindu

12:43 pm

ty hurshy and molly - a new one

12:43 pm

i'm pretty sure we've had it before

12:44 pm

if you cut the last letter off the thing that keeps your boat from floating away, i thought that that was a kind of chili pepper

12:45 pm

but it does not seem to count

12:45 pm

i feel like that happens a lot with culinary words

12:46 pm

i got the two is words clued below, are there more that start that way from the other i tile?

12:47 pm

12:49 pm

Dr. Suess called them one and two and red and blue

12:49 pm

alas, like so many lives, this grid falls just short of having romance

12:49 pm

12:50 pm

Hurshy, I have come to the conclusion that when it comes to great romances, the line was very short and only a few were granted them.

12:50 pm

struggling with the first so 6 -- clue please?

12:50 pm

cyber I only have a pl

12:50 pm

12:58 pm

12:59 pm

name that proper noun! site of terrible battles in the World Wars

12:59 pm

somme

1:00 pm

sadly I don't know french but was able to figure it out with the points and what we might call a stone. thanks

1:12 pm

i am really slowing down now.....would like to at least hit half way, but oof - slog

this is a tough one today.

1:14 pm

its the endless trap of babble - little grids make you think you can burn right through them, big grids make you think "oh boy, this will be fun!" and the day disappears....

yep

1:17 pm

ch 7/40 please?

1:17 pm

which is nothing compared to the endless trap of cats who sit on you so you don't want to get up and disturb them

1:17 pm

i say I dont like cats, because I am totally, utterly allergic to them - but secretly i love them

1:19 pm

looking, cyber....

1:19 pm

my opie is having a Naughty Day

that's one of my last 5, nan

1:22 pm

1:23 pm

cots

1:23 pm

oops sorry

well, I feel like I understood the clue but not working for me

1:23 pm

one more I think

1:23 pm

which part?

and that is the direction I was going so hopefully I'll get it

1:24 pm

drop the last letter from God's son, carla

I'm not using it

must have a different soothing salt in mind

1:25 pm

eps--

got it. was thinking of the printer instead of the salts!

1:26 pm

lol

and FTR, I use those in baths all the time, was just having a mental blank on the last letter.

1:26 pm

you need to take a bath then! lololol

my last 4 are ts6 x 2 and as6/7

1:26 pm

my bathtub is currently filled with sewing supplies.....

1:27 pm

:O

I just had one the other day

1:27 pm

ch 6/27 - change last vowel in the shiny metal

1:28 pm

as6, dorothy's friend squeaked for his oil___ but instead make it what's left after something burns, not oil

well, I'll be. thanks

ooh, found ts6/18

1:29 pm

*!*~*!* thanks for the help :)

1:29 pm

can't find that one to save me, hokie....can only find the ts5

found the other. fireworks!

1:30 pm

huzzah for hokie!!!!!

1:30 pm

5 carla

ok, let me see, trif

1:30 pm

^5

there is a so4/4 that if you add the t and then make it plural, you will have ts 6/18

1:31 pm

there are two ts 6's middle vowel different

yes, that accounts for the point differential

the ts 6/21 is if you add a t to tom cruise/katie holmes daughter's name and make it plural

1:32 pm

do you know any french trif?

both of them are close to the voice on iPhone but with a different vowel

1:33 pm

got them! thank you!

1:33 pm

t + french mouse and drop one of the first 2 vowels

1:33 pm

im going to take a break when i hit 180....have major sewing to do, totally avoiding it

1:33 pm

what are you making?

1:34 pm

a copy of mina murray's green dress from Coppolas' version of Dracula (pause for googling).....

1:34 pm

costume party?

I am in the middle of making some dinner scarves (or adult bibs) for my dad, who has parkinsons. I hope he is not offended. I don't think he will be.

1:35 pm

I struggle MIGHTILY with making patterns from scratch, so this is a real challenge. It's SUCH a gorgeous dress, omg....I hope to do it even some justice!

1:35 pm

that is so kind, hokie!

1:35 pm

no, cybernan - the school where i am the costumer is doing a production of Dracula

1:35 pm

on my way - hagd everyone

I am giving them to him for his birthday in a couple of weeks. he really doesn't need anything since he just sits around all day and reads. hard to think of something. I had seen these things and then my mom suggested I make some, so I am.

you too, nan!

1:36 pm

heres a tiny url, for those who wish to peek....

1:37 pm

https://tinyurl.com/t2hr5ka

1:37 pm

wow, impressive. ambitious? good luck. hope to see the finished product.

also torsion

2:35 pm

a sadly underutilized -ion today

and mochi: there, but not accepted

there are three ion words so far

2:36 pm

i was just saying how i think food words are the biggest area where things don't count

2:36 pm

like if you remove last letter from what holds your boat in place, that is a kind of chili pepper

mocha

2:37 pm

that one just doesn't have the A next to the H

2:37 pm

it would count if it were here

definintely mexican bias

2:37 pm

including the word itself, I have 7 ION words so far

defininitely european in nature

2:38 pm

I have 17 words left...oy vey! If I get firework today, I will have accomplished three things...The other two are I got dressed and I got in my 30 minute walk...

2:39 pm

then there is another pair!

2:39 pm

hi all I do not have any ion words

2:44 pm

I still have 86 left so there could be more, but that's what I have at this point

2:44 pm

It is a good monkey day.

there are two pigs in the grid. and how to cook them

2:56 pm

We are having pig for dinner tonight. We love pig.

ah yes. yes we do.

i am having mystery meat. forgot to mark the froeezer packet. it's a cutlet of some sort.

2:57 pm

I'm serving baked swwet potatoes and a summer squash gallete with ours.

the galette sounds interesting. what's in it?

i always think of them with fruit

2:59 pm

I just put pesto on the pie crust and then slice yellow and zucchini squash on top. You can add thinly sliced onion if youlike.

3:00 pm

that sounds yummy

3:00 pm

I do apple and peach gallettes a lot, but we really like them savory as well.

cheese in pesto?

i love sweet poatoes. i did not like them as a child.

3:02 pm

I usually use Classico. It does have cheese but it doesn't have nuts. My mom can not have nuts.

3:02 pm

I think you can get it dairy free at Trader Joes.

funny, i like yellow squash but not green. too bland.

or somethig i cannot put my finger on.

3:04 pm

Mom and Mr. Bea love baked sweet ptoatoes. Mr. Bea has have his with brown sugar and cinnamon.

3:05 pm

They are both bland. It depends on the seasoning you use.

3:05 pm

We eat a lot of squash. Soft and hard.

i think when some steak chains started serving them with cinnamon sugar, lots of folks discovered them

i only like summer and delicata squash

3:07 pm

I would rather have mashed or fried sweet potaotes.

3:07 pm

I love delicata.

3:07 pm

Not very common down here. I'm trying to change that. =)

i like them baked whole, or for easter, lightly candies. use mostly orange juice, do not like sticky syrupy kind

short season for them but they do keep well

3:09 pm

We like ac5/12 and butternut squash.

3:09 pm

Pickled spiralized butternut squash is awesome!

3:10 pm

Delicata can be grown in greenhouses in NC almost all winter long.

3:22 pm

I have found the 1 type of pig, but not the other, any clues?

3:26 pm

Is it a plural, dolly?

3:27 pm

3:41 pm

Bea, what part of NC do you live in?

3:41 pm

my in laws live in Wilmington

3:43 pm

I am north of Raleigh almost in VA. We are about 20 minutes fsouth of the Va border.

3:44 pm

I've never been to Wilmington. We always go to the beach on the Crystal Caost.

3:44 pm

I love Carolina, we used to fly into Raleigh when we would go there

3:44 pm

Coast.

3:45 pm

3:49 pm

we live in southern Iowa, 1 of our sons and his family lived in Wichita for 13 yrs

3:50 pm

I bet you don't miss tornado season

3:51 pm

I lived in Butler County all my life. Right next to Wichita. Had to shop there to get any thing of substance.

3:52 pm

You know, tornado season is overrated. It si like people think there is a tornado waiting to rip threw every Kansas town at 5:00pm.

3:53 pm

LOL

3:54 pm

they lived in Wichita and Park City

3:54 pm

My mom lived in the same county of KS for almost 80 years. Now she lives here with us. She said she would rather deal with tornados then hurricanes. Hurricanes take too long.

3:54 pm

Wow! that's a long time

3:55 pm

but I'm with here, I would hate to deal w/the hurricanes and all the wind and water that comes with

3:55 pm

My oldest daughter lives in Park City. Youngest lives in Maixe.

3:55 pm

Maize

3:55 pm

Yes, and I wish she could still be there, but...

3:56 pm

Happier and healthier than ever, my mom is...

3:57 pm

One word left...It's halftime...

3:59 pm

when I watch my in laws putting anything valuable in a shipping container to keep it safe, it's not worth it, you can't enjoy it... and the flooding would bring me to my knees in tears

4:09 pm

Yes, I know. We lived on the "high" side of our KS community. Lots of flooding two-three times a year. Finally they rerouted the large Walnut and every one is happy.

4:12 pm

that would be so disheartening

4:16 pm

Part of m home town was wipe out by a tornado in 1958. I think I would rather have everything disappear in a tornado than to dela with what is left from a flood.

4:17 pm

I swear! Since I installed Windows 10, my computer will NOT do what I want...

4:18 pm
