I'm making plum jelly today...Best get on with it.

7:26 am

Mmm, homemade jelly.

7:30 am

hi all

7:30 am

whoo hooo bzzn

7:32 am

We have a quince tree, but the jam was terrible

7:32 am

quince needs lots of extra sugar.

7:33 am

The consistency was awful

7:33 am

rubbery?

7:33 am

Mostly the birds ate the quice fruit

7:34 am

Yes jmc

7:34 am

like the pawpaw quince is high pectin. . . better for jelly than jam

7:35 am

Don't know which type it is.

try making membrillo. easier, hard to go wrong.

7:35 am

sorry I needed a comma in that sentence. Like the pawpaw, the quince is

7:36 am

membrillo? never heard of it. . . do tell

basically you just chunk all the quince into water with a ton of sugar, and boil it down till it's really thick, spread it out in a pan.

7:37 am

sounds like fruit leather. . . gotcha

It sets up almot like fruit leather because it's so full of pectin - well, I guess it probably is fruit leather

7:37 am

Has to be Splenda for me

7:38 am

I was going to say... and that's where Brillo pads come from.

more jellylike. You'll se recipes with lemon juice or cinnamon etc.

7:38 am

hahaha

I'm sure it's spanish lol

7:39 am

cut a square and put it on your toast?

I know, it's too much sugar for me, trying to stay lo carb. But makes a nice gift for those who aren't - quince has a lovely flavor

7:40 am

it does hidden behind the sour. . .

yes, it works great for toast.

IIt turns bright orange curiously enough

people plant quince as ornamental a lot because its flowers are so nice, but then the fruit just languishes, always seemed like a waste.

7:43 am

i seem to recall the few times I made jelly from the fruit on my bush it was pale yellow. . . but I may be misremembering

Maybe the long cooking time for membrillo.

7:44 am

it's been quite a few years. My busg generally provides three or four small fruit so not worth dealing with.

7:44 am

the leather may be worth it.

is the second di 7/32 similar to the other di 7/32?

i saw two deer on my morning walk today. one blocked my path then crossed the road. the other bolted when i walked past her bed.

8:53 am

Have you seen any fawns? There is a mama and fawn here and that baby is so tiny.

no. i would not see any tiny ones, since i am not walking in the woods.

frankly, i stopped walking in the park because they all come out in the late afternoon and hang out in groups. they make me bervous.

8:55 am

Deer are skittish and will run away.

nervous. once i was walking the nature trail at dusk and they all just came out to dine in the cornfield. i was totally spooked, there were so many

not here. they are bold. used to humans.

8:56 am

They wanted to watch you.

8:56 am

good morning everyone

casually strolling scorss the sidewlk and the street at 8AM

8:57 am

Hello up there, Nan.

that dusk encounter, they just kept coming amd coming...i n herds. and there i was, a mile from the car.

8:58 am

Are there reports of attacks on people?

8:58 am

Not in our yard scrabs -- they stand there and look at me as if they have every right to be eating/sleeping/pooping in my yard. I have to chase them off with a broom -- they don't move until I am about 5 feet away and then only over the property line.

i have workmen coming for an estimate today. i really need to let them inspect the basement. i am very nervous.

no. i would think that would be the bucks, which are rarely seem.

8:59 am

I live in the woods and the deer are fairly calm, but I am not afraid that they would hurt me.

you don;t need to be int he woods anymore. city of 40,000 and there they are.

should i be nervous to have an estimator come in to isnpect the basement?

9:01 am

TO - we live in a city of 150,000 in a gated community and they still come in

9:01 am

if his name is hannibal TO.. yes

9:01 am

I think the deer might feel the same about us - we keep multiplying and taking over their territory.

my brother had a big buck standing in the street aoutside his house. now THAT is a sight.

um, 350 years ago...

9:02 am

true, pastor

9:02 am

Owl, be on the phone (pretend) and tell the person to hold while the estimator enters the house.

i say, GET OVER IT!!!

no, scrabbler, it's disease that scares me.

9:03 am

Oh, that. Masks for both of you. Give him hand sanitizer before entry.

i will open the doors and turn on the lights for him. then all i will need to sanitize will be the hand rail afterwards.

9:04 am

Tell him to not touch anything.

i do not have hand sanitizer except a small bottle for the car.

living alone obviates the need for lots of sanitizing.

9:05 am

Vinegar?

vinegar will sanitize? i know it is a great cleaner.

i am hoarding my alcohol and i have one bottle of spic n span difinfecting spray. that's it.

9:08 am

soap and water will do it for covid, but if you want vinegar, awesome makes a great glass cleaner with vinegar in it -- 99 cents for a 1/2 gal bottle at the 99 cent store.

oops, phone

9:10 am

I do not know if vinegar has been tested against Coronavirus, but it may work.

9:11 am

I have to shop for my mom and visit her. See you tomorrow.

9:12 am

me neither scrabs -- I just use my regular cleaning products -- I don't think an antiseptic is necessary.

bye scrabbler.

9:28 am

clue for in8 please?

9:29 am

looking for it too, flask

9:30 am

:)

9:31 am

the beginning of something, presumeably

9:31 am

hi all

9:32 am

Just a mention, vinegar is a great cleaner but it does not disinfect or sanitize.

9:33 am

well thats what I'm thinking...

9:33 am

but if the covid wants to make a salad...

9:34 am

Hi jmc....hope you're well

9:34 am

the experts keep saying that you don't need a disinfectant for the covid virus -- soap and water will do it

9:38 am

I agree. People are taking this way too far with hoarding alcohol and bleach.

9:39 am

2nd di 7 please?

9:41 am

di + explosive

9:42 am

Or di7 is what comes before diglycerin : D

9:43 am

9:43 am

9:47 am

Hi origami...

9:47 am

9:47 am

Nan did you find in8?

9:47 am

are you in an apartment jmc?

9:47 am

I have to do it as a lunch break . . . we chare that wall

9:48 am

*share

9:48 am

maybe a padded tile????

9:49 am

haha no I am taking down the ceramic tile to replace it but I am trying to get it mostly to come down intact so /i can reuse it.

9:49 am

I want to put in a walk in shower

9:50 am

I have one....you will like the difference...

9:50 am

Well, beyond explosive and comes before glycerin I didn't know how to clue it without just putting the word in the chat.

9:51 am

And hey, where do I sign up for 14 weeks at the beach?

9:51 am

the in9 is explosive?

9:52 am

they went down for spring break and decided staying there was better than being cooped up in DC.

9:52 am

no - the di 7

9:52 am

I would love to take out my tub and replace it with a walk-in shower. But I only have one bathroom and it would drop the value of my property not to have a tub.

9:52 am

*Looks around for an in9

9:52 am

oh okay I have that one. . . lost the thread of the conversation

9:53 am

can someone please clue the in8 for me???

9:53 am

I have two baths but the bottom floor has the shower. I hope I can configure a tub and a walk in shower. We will see.

9:54 am

ugh business meeting. . .bbl

9:55 am

ha d to look it up, so no fireworks, but done.

9:56 am

I'm giving up too.....-back tomorrow!

9:56 am

<--found the in8 on my own

9:56 am

Looking forward to tomorrow -- we are driving to Hope (2.5 hours) for a picnic lunch with our younger son and his family -- will be the first time we have seen them since Christmas. They are the only kids close enough to meet half way for part of a day.

here's a cookie for ru LOL

9:59 am

i'm off sugar.. but thanks anyway hokie

9:59 am

good icon ru :) hagd everyone

have a good trip, nan

10:00 am

it will take more organization that usual, for sure. Must remember gloves, masks and wipes :)

10:03 am

Nan never misses a chance to remind people to be Sterile Cheryls

10:04 am

better than being sicky nickys.... ;o)

10:06 am

or a covid david?

10:06 am

I have noticed a big drop off in people wearing gloves. I guess people are starting to take it to heart that this thing doesn't pass by touch.

10:07 am

i wear gloves at the grocery store and bank

10:07 am

all that latex and no fun

10:08 am

I wonder if we are going to have a population decrease. I mean, people can't possibly be having sex with all this distance and covering up.

10:08 am

I wear gloves at home when I'm touching raw meat

10:08 am

but they are nitrile instead of latex

10:09 am

we are having a population decrease.. Millennials are not having that much sex

10:09 am

well, a LOT of millennials don't want to have kids

10:10 am

that's because they are still kids themselves

10:10 am

That is really sad

10:11 am

no, they say things like "I don't want to add to this out of control population" or "I would never bring a kid into this world"

10:12 am

unbelievable, I missed the russian ruler again

10:14 am

True, hokie

10:15 am

7 left after first pass through the list - all 7's and 8's ugh. and yes I saw clues in the chat but still didn't get them

10:19 am

got the in8 all by myself (by looking it up)

10:19 am

in8 short for beginning + last 3 of what Mr. Ed is

10:19 am

Oh well, so much for the clue

10:19 am

inflacid

10:19 am

that's a very strange word. tyvm

10:19 am

damn it

10:20 am

Ty molly

10:20 am

I had no idea Mr. Ed needed Viagra

10:21 am

I guess that is why there was no Mrs. Ed

10:22 am

or little Eddies... ;o)

10:22 am

i guess he couldn't pony up

10:22 am

is the re7/8 regular?

10:22 am

yes

10:23 am

finally, was thinking about it all wrong

10:24 am

now just the in7 and all those horrible di's

10:24 am

That happens here a lot

10:25 am

the in 7 rhymes with the in 8....

10:25 am

thx, always think of that as en

10:26 am

me, too... ;o)

10:29 am

ok, looked up the d's for fireworks :D

10:31 am

congrats....

10:32 am

well i am down to 25....can't go any farther without listing, so I will come back later to finish with the list...bye all....

10:32 am

whoo hoo hokie

10:37 am

yeah, I think I went to the list at 26 left. tough big words today.

10:38 am

My crazy neighbor is outside talking on the phone about how her kids are sick but she's not afraid of viruses because she doesn't vaccinate them.

10:38 am

had 6 4's and most of them I should have gotten but just couldn't see

10:38 am

FFS. I can't deal with anti-vaxxers

10:38 am

I'm so glad I don't live next door to that neighbor ori

10:39 am

me too ruru

10:39 am

I mean how can you argue with that kind of logic

10:39 am

i did the grid without too much trouble and didn't use lickety...

10:39 am

Now she's moved on to how her kids will not wear masks because she doesn't want to teach them to be afraid to breathe.

10:39 am

Well done, ru

10:39 am

I think the anti-vaxxers should tour china

10:40 am

korea is just as bad

10:40 am

Not to needle you ru, but I get your point

10:40 am

sans masks

10:40 am

origami how old are these kids .. roughly?

10:40 am

she needs a good neck punch

10:41 am

have they been out much to begin with?

10:41 am

you're punning makes me syringe knight :D

10:42 am

They're 5 and 2, and they go out all the time.

10:42 am

And people come over to their house a lot.

10:42 am

geez

10:43 am

and I thought all the whackos were in Berkeley.. little did I know

10:43 am

origami you are in calif right?

10:43 am

You win serum and loose serum

10:43 am

LOL.. good one

10:44 am

i love it when you inject into the chat

10:44 am

Yes a good dose of puns always helps, if you get my point

10:45 am

and your humor is not in vein

10:45 am

I cc you

10:49 am

why do I feel like I'm getting hosed?

10:52 am

Apparently I need a mask in the chog!

10:53 am

what has been interesting is the number of children of anti-vaxxers who reject the anti-vaxx position

10:56 am

One can only hope. Took my walk today with no mask, but only saw a couple of people and they were across the street.

10:56 am

i ride my bike without a mask.. but i stay more than 10 feet from people

10:59 am

Yup. Had a mask in my pocket, in case there was someone closer

11:07 am

So is this the new normal? Will people wear masks everywhere from now on? If so, no more eating in restaurants, no more dentist or doctor visits, no more cocktail parties, or any kind of party that involves eating or drinking...pretty limited existence.

11:09 am

God, now she is going on and on about how they are just going ahead without wearing masks, going to the store, etc. Our state is under a mandatory masks in public order. Neighbor from Hell.

11:09 am

di 7/32, first one, pls

11:20 am

Bichon - ends in a movie where Jeff Bridges gets sucked into a computer.

11:26 am

she's going to get kicked out of the store ori.. they're enforcing it

11:28 am

how do you hear her ori.. is she yelling outside?

11:28 am

I hope they do. When I was there the other day, there were quite a few people without them on.

11:28 am

they are here where I live

11:29 am

Yes, she is outside talking very loudly. I'm in my office/guest room/studio which is pretty close to their back patio.

11:29 am

she's not taking her medications I'm guessing

11:30 am

She sure needs some mood stabilizers. I like her a lot more when she is in depressed mode.

11:31 am

we should have those for the PB here too

11:35 am

Are masks required in the PB? Hard to eat and drink with them on.

11:40 am

good question mixi

11:42 am

ty origami

11:42 am

Immunity is granted to all who enter the PB.

11:42 am

You're welcome, bichon.

11:45 am

Thank God. There needs to be some place where people are not obsessed with germs and disease.

11:49 am

masks are needed in the sensitive room however

11:49 am

D’S downed.

11:50 am

11:54 am

roget

11:54 am

Roget! That's the first word I saw

11:54 am

ding ding ding!!!

11:54 am

The sensitive room will need some aromatherapy candles as well.

11:55 am

yeah..like sea breeze and lavendar fields

11:57 am

Yes! And a nature sound machine - birds chirping and maybe whale songs.

11:58 am

mood lighting too

11:59 am

Oh, and crystals.

12:01 pm

crap I forgot about the crystals

12:02 pm

:D

12:13 pm

Di7/32....still not seeing plural

12:14 pm

And only seeing one di7

12:15 pm

ori I had a neighbor who would talk loudly on his phone in his drive that abuts the side of my house. Since I pretty much never us a/c I have open windows most of the year. I took to playing music really loudly whenever he would start a telephone conversation. He has quit doing it.

12:16 pm

*gets ru a tie-dye caftan*

12:18 pm

not seeing di8 either hi all

12:19 pm

the Di 8 is a plural of the 1st Di

12:19 pm

Une & Peri- I clued a di 7 at 11:20 that can be pluralized into a di8.

12:19 pm

the 2nd Di 7 has nothing to do with the other

12:19 pm

I only have one di7

12:20 pm

Need more help... Have tried adding s!!

12:20 pm

have no idea what movie you are referring to Ori

12:20 pm

I might have to try playing music, jmc. It is ridiculous. It is much worse, though, at 1 a.m. (especially when they fight).

12:20 pm

help with lone O and lone A pls

12:21 pm

12:21 pm

Tx origami!!!

12:31 pm

Can I please get a hint for the c?

12:32 pm

ce5/6 a babblet

12:34 pm

ce + the first three of what comes after New and is the site of Mardi Gras

12:34 pm

Found them. Don't think I've seen those before.

12:34 pm

Thank you.

12:35 pm

thanks molls

12:35 pm

I didn't know if a clue would help. The "a Babblet" thing never helps me as I don't have those memorized.

12:36 pm

<---has all the babblets memorized

12:36 pm

I have a few memorized like etna.

12:36 pm

ru's the man

12:38 pm

well.. playing this game everyday for 13 years has to account for something

12:38 pm

I have no idea what comes after New. York, year, baby, house!. Site of mardi gras - google is no help and the answer in a crossword clue gives an answer that isn't in the grid. Is it possible to have another clue pleas

12:38 pm

haha more dedicated than I

12:39 pm

It is a city in Louisiana. . . Madri Gras is also in Brazil and other places. . . but that is the main place in the U.S.

12:40 pm

Ok. Now I understand the clue. Thanks

12:41 pm

I was just about to dive in** Joan of Arc! hahaha

12:46 pm

hmm, when I do a Google search on mardi gras, the first thing that comes up is mardi gras New .......

12:47 pm

I was getting about Fat Tuesday and didn't understand what the clue given meant

12:47 pm

on the other hand you are in the U.S. and google knows it. Jax is in England so probably gets some place else.

12:48 pm

I had no idea the results of a Google search depended on where you search from

12:49 pm

If I could work these babblets into a conversation I would be able to remember them. But, then, people think I'm strange enough already. :D

12:49 pm

Seriously, the day I start speaking in Babble words is the day someone can feel free to commit me.

12:50 pm

absolutely. That is why, among other reasons, I use duckduckgo or something ese.

12:51 pm

They don't track where you are or what you ask

12:52 pm

I hadn't heard of duckduckgo, jmc. I will start using it.

12:52 pm

It's so funny how I just take for granted that movies that feature Mardi Gras and that city it is in, have made them popular enough to be common knowledge.

12:52 pm

i switched to Ecosia because they plant trees for every search you do

12:52 pm

my boy keeps me up to date on privacy issues

12:57 pm

Maybe it will cut down on the ads I get on Facebook and other sites.

12:58 pm

facebook has it's own system. as does yahoo.

12:59 pm

microsoft also tracks you (and before anyone gloats and Apple)

12:59 pm

well, i found ae7 & 8 but that's it, anyone got any others?

1:00 pm

other 7s and 8s?

1:00 pm

yes

1:00 pm

in 8/32

1:01 pm

a rhyming but not connected in 8/40

1:01 pm

di 7/32 and its plural

1:02 pm

an unconnected di 7/32

1:03 pm

got the di combo!

1:03 pm

the other di7 comes after them

1:06 pm

got the in7!

1:06 pm

and 8!

1:07 pm

WD!

1:08 pm

when you say the other di7 comes after them, you don't mean like, RIGHT after them, i assume?

1:09 pm

sorry. not sure I still am looking for 10 d words

1:10 pm

ok

1:14 pm

increasingly likely it is right after as I only have one word left to find on the D

1:14 pm

i have that and one other D, from top D

1:15 pm

happy to give a clue or the di7 if you want

1:15 pm

yeah, that'd be great :D

1:15 pm

I would love a clue for both di7s, please and thanks!

1:15 pm

end it with an explosive

1:16 pm

Pastor the first one ends with a really bad movie about computer games

1:16 pm

1:16 pm

hmmm...

1:17 pm

dinotnt

1:17 pm

no hursh

1:18 pm

wrong explosive? thank goodness

1:18 pm

Jeff Bridges 1982

1:18 pm

lol! tnt is all i can think of!

1:18 pm

haha the other one is sometimes the start of glycerin

1:19 pm

ahhhh thanks

1:19 pm

tis just unfortunate that TNT is so very prominent in the grid

1:19 pm

yeah hahaha you weren't the first person who guess that with that clue

1:20 pm

sheesh - got the movie one

1:20 pm

I said it was a bad movie

1:20 pm

(had to google it!)

1:20 pm

ah, got the explosive one too. thanks much!!

1:21 pm

i mean, i also thought, surely a word can't end with TNT, but...

1:22 pm

of course Ishtar was even worse. . .

1:22 pm

yeah, you say 'explosive' and there's tnt in all its diagonal glory!

1:22 pm

yep yep

1:29 pm

afternoon all, late start for me on this one

1:30 pm

hi mooling

1:30 pm

1:31 pm

I still cannot get the second di7/32????????

1:31 pm

hey ori, perhaps we need to start having video conferencing on here ;)

1:32 pm

But then we couldn't do naked babbling.

1:32 pm

I prefer to keep the mystery. . . .until a meetup

1:32 pm

heh

1:33 pm

please can someone help me with the second di7/32????

1:33 pm

I only one 7 so far...given that I've just started :)

1:34 pm

di+explosive (not TNT)

1:34 pm

well that's lame

1:34 pm

1:35 pm

my clue is lame?

1:35 pm

no, the word is lame

1:35 pm

clue was on point

1:35 pm

di+blank glycerin

1:35 pm

1:35 pm

1:35 pm

if they are both di then the pl the first one

1:36 pm

Babble, the only place where people get pedantic about explosives : D

1:38 pm

better than blowing my top!

1:38 pm

My kids used to ask if Grandpa was going to explode since he took ni5 for his angina. : D

1:38 pm

heh

1:38 pm

a fair question I say

1:39 pm

and if he was on glycerin as well, then you would want him to lose his temper

1:39 pm

I often think kid questions are fair. It's the adult ones that make no sense. : D

1:40 pm

Well, the medication is actually ni5glycerin

1:40 pm

ah

1:40 pm

I always preferred my staff to ask questions

1:44 pm

weird, have 33 left and I've completed the 6s...that almost never happens for me

I would love to swim in something, but all our pools remain closed. I am so sick of this COVID crap.

2:00 pm

Our pools just opened but I'm so out of shape I'm embarassed to go. They limit the number of people in the pool and I would take up space...

3:39 pm

3:41 pm

3:41 pm

business would be so much easier without the customers

3:42 pm

exactly they should just pay me for my general fabulousness

3:46 pm

fabulosity has a price

3:46 pm

absolutely and everyone in Babbleland knows I am fabulous when I put on my cape to save the world!

3:47 pm

what colour is the cape?

3:48 pm

depends on what I am saving. sometimes blue, sometimes green and every once in a while silver

3:48 pm

very nice

3:48 pm

still looking for this last 8

3:49 pm

but I have to be selective with the silver because it is sooooo amazing that people faint at the sight

3:49 pm

hmm

3:49 pm

true, plus there is the reflective qualities

3:50 pm

I have ae, di, re, in

3:51 pm

Yeah, I know which one it is, just got to nut it out :)

3:51 pm

3:51 pm

3:51 pm

it can look a bit dated too

3:51 pm

well if you want a clue or the stats let me know.

3:51 pm

very 80s

3:51 pm

I do like the tinted metallics :)

3:53 pm

missing in8

3:55 pm

I'm quite fond of copper too

i actually bought SHOES the other day. as if i am going ANYWHERE

i mean, summer shoes with heels. like you would wear for causal dress up. do you remember dress up?

3:57 pm

begin at the beginning and then think of Mr. Ed

alan young?

3:58 pm

not if I can help it. . . I am happy in my jeans

horse? nag? steed? equine?

i blow dry my hair, put on tinted moisturizer and eyeliner every day.

3:59 pm

in5/10 + some of Mr. Ed

ok. and i guess no one has ordered sun protective clothing fromthe coolibar website. i need something since all my exercise is now outdoors, do not want to slather up with sunscreen

ty

that is a word i do not recall seeing before.

4:01 pm

de 5/12, second one, pls

4:01 pm

sounds like a good idea. I am allergic to sunshine so I wear long sleeves and long pants year round.

4:01 pm

it is a stupid one bichon--get rid of rodents

4:02 pm

doh, ty jmc

oh no! i love that word! makes me smile every time

this has a special weave, not infused with zonc oxide which will wash out everntually. not good for fitness clothing used and washed often

4:05 pm

yw bichon

they have many nice options for pants and leggings. not good for shorties though.

4:07 pm

so why not just wear long sleeves and leggings. Have you gotten sun through solid leggings?

4:08 pm

sorry got to drop out for a bit. bbl

regular fabric too hot. i especially need protection for my arms.

i nearly died walking at 8AM today, so humid.

and they also have hand protection built in.

4:12 pm

I've never used coolio but I always wear complete coverage, usually just lightweight long pants and shirts

do you walk three + miles in the summer every day? before covid, i used a gym, but doctor forbids it till next year.

and also i garden.

already over the sun limit for the whole summer and it's only june. burn easily.

4:22 pm

I highly recommend Leslie Sansone's indoor walking workouts and they are available on You Tube.

how much room is needed for them?

4:23 pm

Not much

i miss the gym so much! but i cannot see myself there for the activities i enjoy. too risky.

4:23 pm

My son does them in his room and it is a fairly small room

i do miss the classmates though.

ah.

4:24 pm

I'm curious. When will you consider the gym "not risky"

i don't trust the y to clean properly. they didn't before.

4:25 pm

So never?

4:25 pm

I'm just wondering if people are content to live this way for the rest of their lives. We were talking about this at work today.

some people have said they are not resuming social interaction until there is a vaccine. i think each person must assess and do what makes the person comfortable.

i don't want a new normal. so far it sucks.

worst purchases of 2020: two datebooks and a calendar.

the shoes, well, i hold out some hope.

4:35 pm

i can't imagine missing the gym. if i ever went to one.

nor could i until i went regularly. i feel powerful and everything physical in daily life is easier.

hurshy, name that caribbean island nation...

4:37 pm

trinidad!

ding ding ding!

you win a mask imprinted with the balle logo!

babble, sheesh.

my friend's dogs is famous, on etsy someone used his photo on one of the masks she sells. you could do that with the kitties!

4:47 pm

well, i already bought BUB masks.

4:49 pm

I'm very amused by people making their personal statements with masks. It's like bumper stickers on people.

really?!

bub creeps me out.

not sure why. beautiful story though.

time to go. last 10 will have to wait.

5:02 pm

I give up on the last three.....

5:18 pm
