I think so. I still have a lot of blueberries.

Syrup does sound good...

I really should keep a list of all these weird ass currency words.
Maybe the whole world should just adopt the dollar to keep the Americans happy. There's a big world out there using different currencies to annoy and confuse you. It should be stopped.
Haz! LOLOL
that's a little different than every weird coin in the world being included on an english word list
people make fortunes on the money market dont thinks its going away anytime soon, unless peopel buy in the the fake digital currencies.
shouldn't having sex with people who aren't in your family be called excest?
hello all -- Haz, how are you? Who's the beautiful woman in your photo?
LOL hurshy!
I need to get busy. I've been researching Eutrochium, now I need to start writing the article...
hello friends
hurshy, maybe you can guess my missing 2 M's?
Until tomorrow..
Hello Stid, that's my grandmother. I never knew her, she died young in 1938 but that photo was taken in the 1920s I think.
i am also missing one, hokie
bye bea!!
i saw earlier that you have the 7... everything else pretty normal... have you got Le Mo4 d'Arthur?
what a lovely photo, haz! a true treasure
um, that's a little obscure for me :D
:-)
it's french for death
My cousin passed on quite a few photos to me a few years ago, I had never seen her before so it was a revelation.
shows up as the root of english words about death
Well, I need that single e in the top row for nbt - count please?
do you resemble her at all?
FYI - de5 is in the grid!
Do you look like her, Haz?
es4
es4
thanks hursh
oh, so it is, sorry, i'm only on the second row lol
ARGH!!!! I thought I typed that... rofl
No, not at all. She's my paternal grandmother but I resemble the male side of the family. Apparently my sister had exactly the same colour of hair as her when she was young.
yes, I do have the mo4.
It's funny which genes are expressed from generation to generation. Keeps us interesting, I suppose
phantoms: except, excess, escape...
Yes, and as people get older you suddenly see previous generations emerging.
Well I can definitely say I am getting my Granny's waistline... except at my age she was still wearing a corset! LOL And curlers in her hair at night.
I guess something can't be exed out
its is a funny thing, to see genes at work. My dad, myself and now one of my kids all have one fingernail that grows slightly askew. blew my mind
oops! PB for you miss hokie!
That's pretty specific, Trifioso! LOL
I look down sometimes and see my mother's hands, just exactly as she held them.
*puts choclits in PB for hokie*
LOL, Trif, my middle fingers are crooked like my dad's
well....technically it's not enable accepted...humble withdraw
why am I in PB? that was my whole point
that's good when you're driving hokie
hmmm - that is such a case for nuture/nature haz
lol
ex 4, hokie
ex4 is accepted, that was what I was saying
isn't
as I said, humbly withdraw
all apologies, hokie dear
but hey, if there's chocolate there...
LOL I see... the one is, the other isn't. My monkeys were working overtime early on so I didn't see that one is and one isn't (ex4)
car.eeyore and I are both running away from home today for sister hijinks....wondering when I should inform the Mr.
down to a nice even 80 with NBT, NBS. Good to see you all. Going to read until Wally-dog wants his second breakfast. Of course he's spoiled! LOL Have a great day all! *poof*
Bye, stid, lovely to see you!
bye!
HEY!
nothing's sure but de5 and ta5
hey hurshy!
so true
oh wow! you are right!
And cellulite.
lol
i dont understand why "retee" is not a word. I have had to retee many a golf ball
Which is thankfully not in the grid but present most everywhere else...
cellulite is one of those things that was just accepted as normal for centuries until somebody decided to tell us it was hideous and now we all feel bad about having it
I said that the last time it was here, trif!
brain waves!
same as wrinkles, hurshy
oooh, and both of the sea birds are here, tucked inside the ot5
Oh, the way to get past cellulite is not to look in the mirror. Be especially careful trying on clothes in shops with mirrors behind you. That's just cruel.
I had the birds but had missed the plurals!
apparently not counting them is also the way to keep covid cases down
i don't see how they are tucked into any ot5...
well, tucked in plus some letters I guess she meant
the te4 is there, and then drop the first letter and the er4 is there
lol
perhaps "overlapping" would have been a better word choice?
i love teeeeeeeaaaaa
when was the last enable update again? 2004? "texted" doesnt make it?
still need 6 A's. par for the course.
nope, not a verb then
a's are buggers, for sure. i's are my biggest hurdle
i'm only missing two a words
so today's grid is lovely - blissfully i free
all that i have are either normal or babblets
found 1, so 5 to go now. vowels in general always give me trouble
hokie has trouble moving her vowels
haha. so true
you are not alone
are there any CR words?
Just the one.
hmm, cr what?
ahhhh thanks
cr welsh babblet
cr5/22. Look, no vowels!
I thought that was cw
what about ch? just one of those also?
there it is - thank you haz
got it, thx
2
No, two.
not sure how I missed the one ch5
or the 6. both real words!

Oh the TV clicker is in this grid :)
well, easy finish with the list. bye y'all!
HAGD hokie!

not finding it easy with the list at all
I haven't listed, I have 83 left.
nan do you know the stats for the 8 ?
se 8/55 - a bull seal apparently

___ Jane ___ the ball

is that a clue, carla -- no idea
yes
got it -- ty carla
new one for me
hmm
OK got it. I was trying to make Jane TH5 the ball.
Thank u hokie
I'm impressed that you made a reference to school curriculum of the late 40's and early 50's -- don't think my kids would know that!
I'm 63 , so I def read all those books! We even named our cat "Puff" when I was little.
they were obsolete by 1960 in our schools
I was reading those books in 2nd? grade, which would have been 1961 or 62.
lol -- I was teaching 4th grade in 1962
I was living in Ellicott City, MD then. After that my family moved to England.
Taking a break! BBL
7 words to go
de 5/22 - first one, please?
Without reproduction
ty mixi
*!*~*!* son and daughter-in-law coming for a visit today -- first time in almost a year, so need to get busy cooking. :)
I was hoping Canada had those books. I guess they are kind of legendary here because I was born in the 70s and know of them.
yes they were in use when I was in primary school, but I think Dick and Jane retired some time in the 50's - can't remember what replaced them because I taught the elementary grades.
hagd everyone - stay safe.
I knew of them. I don’t remember reading them, other than the first sentence or so.
yep -- see this jane run :)
Bye.
Tome
Tore
Opps. Pb for me.
Good old Dick and Jane were still around in the 60's here. I remember them well.
Hiyas, Kiddos.
Ah yes, Dick and Jane. Learned to read from that as I recall.
Now, they are probably politically incorrect.
Nah, that's Dr. Seuss that's probably PI.
Then again, Dick and Jane are probably just too white.
Dick and Jane were so boring! I can't believe anyone learned to read out of those books.
Good morning!
Agreed, Origami. I moved on from them quickly.
"See Spot run." ZZZZZZZZ
:D At least now folks know if you engage a child's interest they will learn much more readily.
Anyone have a clue for the De7/48, please?
de plus what you most commonly drink every day judi
debooze ... no darn it
Ha ha.
Thanks, Nancy.
welcome. wish I could be a boozer some days.
These days were sure made for it.
amen
4 Re's left.

Uhg. Need a clue for the Re6/18.
re plus ripped
Thanks again, Nancy. That's fireworks for me!
WTG Judi.
I remember Dick and Jane too
It's amazing any of our generation can read :D Hi peri
origami! it was you who game me the recommendation for "the weight of ink?"
was it you, i mean
No, not me, Trif.
shoot. I was sure it was.
I have no idea how typing Judi in at 1:12 auto-corrected into Gambling. Geesh.
wow, that is a weird one!
Dick, Jane, Baby Sally, Spot & Puff...
fireworks!
Congratulations, dolly.
Judi is a secret blackjack freak. Oops, the secret is out.
Now it says "Judi" again. Maybe I am, at long last, really losing it. Pray for me friends.
I think you are fine Origami. I have seen several people say that there is some kind of mysterious "spell check" going on here. And then it reverts back.
ori....at least your post didn't substitute male sex organs for your name... ;o)
that's what happened on my screen....
🤣🤣🤣 Penquis.
hi soodle....
refreshing solved the problem...
Thanks, Molly. I thought I was a gonner.
That's very funny, pen :D
actually happened a week or so ago....only appeared on my screen....
Hey Pen. 🤗
gotta check laundry....brb....
Pen, the penis thing was one of the funniest things that has happened here. : D
for everyone else... ;o)
Ah, no. You are one of those who can take a joke. Thank God.
hope so...
i am done....
heading out.....bye all....
I love people who can take a joke. 🤗🤗🤗🤗. I’m less fond of people who ridicule other people & take pleasure in making people feel inadequate.
De7/48?
De & H2O Une
I agree Soodle. I could never see how anyone could take satisfaction in making other people feel small or embarassed.
Thought i tried that already.....thanks!!
Happy to have helped Une.
:-)
there is a se word meaning a cutting garden tool that it won't tkae. I wonder ehy not?
I used to love Babble.
I find it exhausting these days.
intent is not impact, if someone says they are hurt by your words, you don't get to tell them they shouldn't be or it was just a joke or you didn't mean it that way. your impact is yours to own, regardless of intent. it's an important lesson in any community, particularly these days
wise words Dan!
Agree. Thank you Dan
it's been interesting to reflect on this locally here as there's a professional sports team in the process of getting rid of a team name that's had a very racist impact, even though the team ownership did not intend that
Well said, dan2bit.
Thanks Dan. Very well put.
important lesson - especially with social media - so often impact is not considered before posting or commenting
swmbo - if you're thinking of "secator", they probably didn't consider that a correct spelling. The generally accepted spelling is secateur, although you also see secatur quite often.
All of those spellings turn up in a Google search, however.
I see Gillie. Google thinks secator is a word LOL
Well, mainly Amazon does, it looks like.
yes, you're right!
I would likely have spelled it "secatur", but it doesn't like that's accepted any more than "secator".
Love these little nuances of language
clue for et 6/18 - please
builds off the ET 4/6 if thats helpful - i really don't do well giving clues
It's an archaic version of a word meaning "lasting forever"
apologies that was for the 6/24
thanks... staring at it too long
hi all. still didnt get the 8. i think it was an se???? please send clues. the clue i got was for a male seal which is a bull and i never got another term for this. so please help.
starts with look and ends with what you hope to come home with if you go fishing
It's a compound word formed of two verbs - the things you would want to do if a ball was thrown at you.
(I mean it looks like a compound word
does it start with se? or ca?
It starts with se
ty got it.
ty got it
Nice of Uatu from Marvel Comics to drop in on the grid.
Well, his job title
