9:55 am

baby I know

9:57 am

When it comes to being lucky she's cursed

9:57 am

there is only one cu5/14...

9:58 am

yeah, the whole thing was the clue, phae, it's song lyrics where i smushed two words together to make the cu5/14

9:58 am

Hursh is cluing song lyrics

9:58 am

I thought it was a clever clue

9:58 am

I thought it was great

9:59 am

sorry just a little dense today

9:59 am

it's a bagel day

10:00 am

(cause bagels are dense)

10:00 am

If we are going dense food, let's go chocolate

10:00 am

chocolate isn't always dense

10:01 am

sometimes it is light and fluffy

10:04 am

that is why i do not get why people are so fond of bagels though, because they are just way too dense

10:05 am

i'd always rather have a nice (english) muffin

10:06 am

here i go, killing the chat with my overly judgmental food opinions again

10:08 am

You are entitled to your opinions Hursh. (Bets Hursh likes scones)

10:08 am

scones good yes

10:09 am

I had some orange/cranberry scones a while back that were amazing.

10:10 am

now i want to make some scones

10:11 am

in New Zealand we include what are called biscuits here in the US as scones

10:11 am

yeah, i mean, the only difference between US biscuits and scones is that scones have a little sugar in the recipe

10:11 am

Scones are much better than biscuits

10:12 am

But I do like some biscuits and sausage gravy now and again.

10:13 am

phantoms; embed, emeu

10:13 am

Of course the term biscuit is already applied to cookies, so there's that

10:13 am

yeah

10:14 am

condemn as well hursh

10:14 am

YES

10:15 am

and denim

10:17 am

woohoo, monkeyed a pair of um words

10:17 am

I love the term "digestive biscuits" for graham crackers. Makes them seem medicinal.

10:17 am

In NZ, digestive's were a kind of graham cracker with chocolate on the bottom

10:17 am

makes them sound like they won't taste good

10:17 am

lol

10:17 am

Biscuits and mater gravy (if made well) are the bomb-diggity.

10:18 am

bomb-diggity? nice.

10:18 am

I've never had tomato gravy

10:19 am

Oh it has bacon in it. I'm in.

10:20 am

In Philly a significant portion of the population call pasta and sauce - macaroni and gravy

10:20 am

i'm out

10:21 am

i know i'm weird but even before i went off meat, i never did like bacon. i like the flavor alright but the actual eating of it, the texture, idk what it is exactly...

10:21 am

I much prefer it over sausage gravy, lol. Yes, I add bacon, ham, bell peppers, onions, etc... it's more of a stew, I guess, but still mostly gravy.

10:22 am

but i always disliked sausage more than i disliked bacon lol

10:23 am

Bs Bopped!

10:23 am

A lot of Italian people refer to red sauce as "gravy"

10:24 am

are there any PR words?

10:25 am

I don't have any, but still missing 5 from that P

10:25 am

One pr word

10:26 am

ty molly!

10:26 am

ty

10:26 am

hebrew plural of an ancient coin

10:26 am

dang, i was expecting that one to be a no

10:26 am

I had to look that one up Harry

10:27 am

ugh, that sounds like the most egregious of coin word inclusions then

10:27 am

my daughter made pancakes....they taste like baking powder.....but good with coffee anyway

10:27 am

she loves to cook, but as much as I love her, she's just not that good at it.

10:27 am

You are a good Dad to suffer in silence. : D

10:29 am

does an electronic cigarette make an ebutt?

10:29 am

cause I can't fgure out that bottom E.

10:29 am

or would a khardashian robot have an ebutt?

10:29 am

I hear you can buy some ebutt on the porno version of eBay

10:29 am

e + fix a rip

10:30 am

ty dan :)

10:30 am

(though I like ebutt better)

10:30 am

hah! good one molly

10:30 am

can I have a clue for the other H? I have the sewing related pt

10:30 am

he4/6

10:31 am

never mind it was a 4 I hadn't tried - peri'ed it

10:31 am

10:31 am

ty hursh

10:31 am

10:31 am

ah cool thanks

10:32 am

10:32 am

10:32 am

co7/8 done up for halloween

10:32 am

thanks again, dan

10:32 am

should have seen these, sigh

10:33 am

phantom: rustic

10:34 am

I feeel bad for a lot of folks. Graduates who didn't get graduations (or proms), people who have had to postpone weddings, new grandparents who can't get their hands on their new grandbabies (our Matty)

10:36 am

that S sure is hard

10:36 am

oh! that co is twisty

10:36 am

if everybody took it seriously for 6-8 weeks, we'd be able to do what NZ has done. But we have too many people convinced that they don't have to change their behavior just because it would help others

10:39 am

I'm "attending" yet another zoom wedding on Sunday. I've already been to a few zoom funerals, 2 zoom bat mitzvahs and this will be my second zoom wedding.

10:40 am

wow, i suddenly feel incredibly friendless, i haven't had any of those things! lol

10:40 am

alot of it is through my kids.

10:40 am

this wedding on sunday is my cousin's child

10:41 am

I'm sad that people are having to celebrate those things via zoom

10:41 am

guess the weddings are cheaper with no food to provide :D

10:41 am

I did my 50th birthday by zoom

10:41 am

On the plus side, I was able to have friends and family from around the world

10:41 am

and I feel guilty so I still send a gift...they end up doing pretty well.

10:42 am

No food, no dancing, no cake, sniff

10:42 am

heppy bday mool

10:42 am

Oh, it was like 6 weeks ago :)

10:42 am

now why didn't i think of a zoom birthday party? all i did was wear a dress and get myself sushi and fruit salad for lunch

10:43 am

oh dear hurshy that just sounds so sad. though I generally just have a beer for my birthday. on second thought that's what I do when it's not my birthday too.

10:43 am

phantom: stupor

10:44 am

*High fives Harry*

10:44 am

i've only had like 3 really good birthdays

10:44 am

Sounds like a good practice HH

10:44 am

I did my 60th birthday as a 'virtual party' on Facebook. Well, three of my older friends arrived on my doorstep with wine and presents, saying "Your invite didn't say what time the virtual party was starting, so we hope we didn't miss it!" lololol!

10:45 am

thankfully, this happened at a time in history when we are still able to be in contact with others by phoning, messaging and visuals via various apps.

10:45 am

that's sweet ch

10:45 am

It's amazing how we all have different ways of celebrating. Wearing a dress and eating sushi and fruit salad sounds like my idea of a punishment. : D

10:45 am

I could go for some fruit salad.

10:45 am

ok, i know a lot of people don't like sushi, but how can you not like fruit salad??

10:46 am

I just hate when it has bananas and they get brown.

10:46 am

Yeah, I'd do the fruit salad...not a fish eater though, sushi or otherwise

10:46 am

With ya on that one, Molly, lol

10:46 am

yes, bananas should only be added at the time of serving

10:46 am

Passionfruit if you can get it

10:46 am

mine had kiwi, mango, strawberries, and blueberries

10:47 am

wow you guys are fancy.

10:47 am

apples peaches and melon, maybe blueberries if they're in season.

10:47 am

Hursh, I hate to break it to you, but I'm not a big cat lover either. *Gets the smelling salts for Hursh*

10:48 am

OK gotta go get stuff done. Been lovely - later!

10:49 am

the biggest mistake people make with fruit salad is to put any kind of oranges in. they just overpower all the other flavors.

10:49 am

If it's any consolation I made pizza for dinner last night

10:50 am

Consolation for what?

10:50 am

detailed toppings, mool, detailed toppings! lol

10:50 am

i don't use apples either, because while i love apples, i don't feel that they fit with many tropical fruits and berries and stuff

10:50 am

artichoke, black olives, bell pepper, cherry tomato and some salami

10:50 am

good morning all - another scorcher today

10:50 am

i wish i could just find ONE more S word before listing

10:51 am

hey nan, happy friday

10:51 am

how about something you receive to offset the meal and expense costs while working hursh?

10:52 am

yay, thank you moo!!

10:52 am

oh, yum! that sounds like a great combo! Will have to give it a whirl! (note to self, write it down)

10:52 am

Also use fresh spinach a lot, but didn't have any

10:54 am

if you're getting the artichoke out of the fridge, doesn't hurt to bring it to room temp first, and also good idea to drain it to avoid soggy pizza

10:54 am

white or red sauce?

10:54 am

likewise cherry tomato can help in that regard

10:54 am

used red sauce for that one

10:54 am

sometimes will do pesto instead

10:54 am

Naan bread works great for experimental pizzas

10:55 am

i made pizza on some garlic naan and that was yummy for a base

10:55 am

jinx, moo!

10:55 am

and season to taste... I like and it's been AGEs since I made pizza, lol.

10:55 am

Yeah, naan is great, you can even do it on the bbq

10:56 am

Hello hello hello

10:56 am

Grilled zucchini, japanese eggplant and bell pepper with fresh mozzarella on pesto on the naan...grill it up

10:56 am

yeah that sounds great

10:56 am

Just grill the veg first, and then add to your naan

10:57 am

the japanese eggplant has a little more flavor than the regular, if you can find it

10:57 am

if you don't want to grill, you can also do it in oven

10:58 am

I can't believe it. It's working. I've been using Lickety to keep track (owe him lots of thanks) and hoping Dr. God would be able to recreate the rest of his universe, Now that I know you're all here, I

10:59 am

'm going out for some fresh air.

10:59 am

I knew I should've showered first

11:00 am

oh dear. Now I've gone invisible....

11:01 am

si6?

11:04 am

Hi jwr

11:04 am

aHA i found it

11:04 am

11:05 am

Oh hey. amelu are you invisible too?

11:05 am

usually, lol

11:07 am

well I never got any response from hurshy and moolingwa so i wondered. And who knows - technology ... sunspots ... viruses

11:07 am

how are you these days

11:09 am

I’m invisible! Who are you? Are you – invisible – too? Then there’s a pair of us! Don’t tell! they’d advertise – you know!

11:09 am

I am as well as I can be. No stressors in our local acreage, loll

11:09 am

Dickenson

11:11 am

seems like only two people can talk at once (that sounded like my mother at the dinner table)

11:12 am

oh poetess

11:12 am

I thought that poem was somewhat famous. Maybe not.

11:12 am

how be ye, Molly

11:14 am

About Emily. I seem to remember all her lines came equipped with punctuation plus

11:15 am

did you have a particular one in mind

11:16 am

Ah weel. I do have to go out. Just dropped in on the off chance that the babble world was back to normal and I see it is ... almost. Later then.

11:18 am

I am stuffing me face with homemade guacamole and thin wheat cracker with a G&T because I can

11:21 am

11:25 am

No you aren't, peri.

11:25 am

11:25 am

And i am happy for you.

11:25 am

Clean clothes, clean sheets, guacamole and a gin and tonic. Nothing wrong in your world.

11:31 am

11:43 am

same ending

11:43 am

no hun

11:43 am

ah, let me think then

11:44 am

I know he was at alcatraz and I know who it was but my mind is a complete blank LOL

11:44 am

but I did find de6/27 while looking, so thanks, M3

11:44 am

Think it was Deniro that portrayed him the movie

11:45 am

ok, now I rem.

11:45 am

not because of de niro, but it just came to me

11:45 am

Okay, well it has a 4 letter word as it's ending, which is also in the grid...but it's not a word that you've probably heard of outside of word games

11:45 am

cool hoke

11:46 am

ty mool

11:46 am

yw mix

11:46 am

sometimes the word is preceded by corn

11:47 am

the 4, not the de6

11:47 am

well, there you go, learned something new

11:48 am

the 4 is a type of bread, just learned the de6 is like a law thing

11:48 am

so you take away bread from someone and you de6 ;)

11:48 am

yeah, very odd word any way you look at it

11:49 am

yeah, when you prepend corn it says it means rustic or unsophisticated, so I guess it was a basic bread

11:50 am

sorry M3, not sure we're helping you much here

11:50 am

its ok ill keep looking :)

11:50 am

yeah, it's another name for cornbread in appalachia. source: grew up in appalachia.

11:50 am

ahhhh got it ty folks#

11:51 am

I'm sure we've succeeded in cornfusing her greatly

11:51 am

yay M3

11:51 am

but de6 is a new one to me

11:51 am

these P's are tough today

11:52 am

11:54 am

ooh - just found a po 8-9

11:54 am

wow, just noticed the bottom one, thx

11:56 am

not potucopia

11:56 am

some of my meals end up as potucopias

11:57 am

no - but a very common word - especially in the age of covid-19

11:57 am

oh duh

11:57 am

especially given our bread convo before

11:58 am

upper p?

11:58 am

I was looking at that prefix, was struggling to find something behind it....thx for the stats nan

11:58 am

no...bottom one, well at least to start with ;)

11:58 am

12:08 pm

12:10 pm

keep forgetting that t is used instead of ed for pt with some verbs

12:10 pm

skipped ahead to last row and grayed that out!

12:11 pm

my old english grammar teacher would be rolling over in her grave if she knew

12:12 pm

well, finished the 2nd row e but I was trying to find 3rd row e

12:18 pm

and it isn't mudmen

12:19 pm

LOL, I always miss "men" words and they are so arbitrary

12:20 pm

lol - if only it was just the words that are abitrary and not the men themselves :)

12:22 pm

just got to the u and a little stumped, are these regular words?

12:23 pm

found a 4

12:23 pm

not at all

12:23 pm

plural it

12:24 pm

it looks plural already

12:24 pm

need the mu 6/27 and the pr and pt 6's -- help please?

12:25 pm

if the pt6 isn't a regular babblet I probably won't get it. looking for the others now

12:26 pm

what are the point totals on the p's?

12:26 pm

found the pr -- not many places to go on that one

12:27 pm

24 on both

12:27 pm

and it's the lower p?

12:27 pm

oh and monkeyed the pt

12:28 pm

yes - would you like a clue

12:28 pm

sure

12:28 pm

Hi folks. Nan, the mu is a membrane.

12:28 pm

Pt+ot4/5

12:28 pm

pt + word having to do with hearing

12:29 pm

thx, une

12:29 pm

ori, I've been trying mucous and it's apparently the wrong membrane

12:29 pm

You're on the right track, hokie.

12:29 pm

the mu 6/27 comes from the 2nd col. m -- but no luck yet

12:30 pm

keep trying mucous too

12:30 pm

Yw :-)

12:31 pm

very close....ends with spanish "thing"....

12:31 pm

Lose the last u. It ends in a vowel

12:32 pm

The mu is a Latin plural, I think

12:32 pm

found it - ty - wish I spoke spanish

12:32 pm

whew, finally. thanks, village

12:32 pm

*Gets out The Village People outfits

12:33 pm

*!*~*!* thanks for the help folks

12:33 pm

yikes, thanks for the visual

12:33 pm

you realize I will now have YMCA running through my head all day!

12:33 pm

I think Nan should be the Indian

12:34 pm

I am surprised you know that song, nan

12:34 pm

Great. Now I have YMCA on an endless look in my mind.

12:34 pm

And score! Nan knows The Village People

12:34 pm

nah - I want to be the cop

12:34 pm

*loop

12:34 pm

She's holding back on us, I think. Nan is probably a secret grunge band follower.

12:36 pm

my kids were in their teens in those days, carla

12:36 pm

I thought they were closer to my age

12:37 pm

they range in age from 49 to 54

12:37 pm

ah, so the youngest is closer

12:38 pm

yes

12:39 pm

village people were late 70s I think, but YMCA has been played at every sporting event ever since

12:40 pm

they were certainly in the 70's

12:40 pm

so I am glad that you actually got the reference ;)

12:41 pm

mmbop is in the grid too - a bow to the 90s

12:41 pm

wonder what those kids are up to

12:41 pm

ok - need to stop procrastinating and get out the mop -- hagd everyone and stay safe

12:41 pm

and apologies in advance for putting that in your head

12:41 pm

LOL, I am singing it now! not a horrible song.

12:43 pm

Hiyas, kiddos. We also have a Disney elephant in the grid.

12:43 pm

well, I finally made it through. still have 5 tiles I did not reach halfway on. ugh. 58 left.

12:43 pm

huya judi, I tried dumbo and dumbos just in case

12:47 pm

Bah . Another annoying grid. I'm out.

12:47 pm

Judi, red alert, Peri did massive laundry this morning, including sheets.

12:48 pm

Harry, I have a friend who really loves her girls. I say this because she took them to a Hanson concert.

12:48 pm

I love my kids, but not that much.

12:50 pm

cosip - 2 people sharing a drink

12:50 pm

I agree Harry. There are limits.

12:51 pm

I paid a friend to take one of mine to a White Zombie concert.

12:51 pm

I think my parents took me to see the Oak Ridge Boys, not because I wanted to but because they did and just took me along.

12:51 pm

I've told my wife that I will under no circumstances go to disney.

12:51 pm

She can take them if she feels they're deprived.

12:52 pm

I lucked out. Grandma took my kids to Disney.

12:52 pm

aww, I love Disney. that's actually one of our favorite campgrounds too. the youngest goes in the parks with me but the oldest and mr. homie mostly stay at the camper.

12:52 pm

I love Disney more than my kids.

12:52 pm

I would stay with Mr. Homie.

12:53 pm

Me too, especially if beer is involved.

12:53 pm

there's definitely beer involved

12:53 pm

hah. party at the homie's camper

12:53 pm

with him, not me

12:53 pm

Bring your guitar Harry

12:54 pm

no lines no waiting no princesses

12:54 pm

luckily I have boys, so there were never princesses.

12:55 pm

No rides that involve listening to "It's A Small World After All"

12:55 pm

true story, the oldest waited in a fairly long line for Baymax when he was like 15

12:55 pm

is baymax part of disney where baywatch girls are dressed up with fairy wings?

12:56 pm

*Lives in a cave* I had to look Baymax up

12:56 pm

baymax is from Big Hero 6

12:56 pm

carla, that clue does nothing for me.

12:56 pm

I am unfamiliar with anything Disney that came along after my kids outgrew Disney

12:57 pm

it's actually a good movie. spoiler alert, the main character's parents die. that's not really a spoiler because it happens in literally ever disney movie.

12:57 pm

well, harry, you should watch Big Hero 6, I think you'd like it.

12:58 pm

Baymax is like an inflatable robot doctor

12:58 pm

ok - will look for it. I did enjoy some of the latest pixar movies. that one with the mexican land of the dead.

12:58 pm

yes, I just watched that one recently. really good.

12:58 pm

i want pit stop.

hi rose, how are you?

6:24 pm

loll, i tried it too

6:24 pm

sorry, it is a pt and not a pl....

6:25 pm

much better thanx TO. had treatment in hospital his week for the FM. new routine, worked well. no nausea this time and i could taste the food. very important...loll

6:26 pm

and yourself TO. last i 'saw' you, you were not feeling well.

glad to hear this.

awaiting test results.

still kicking! musikfest has begun!

6:28 pm

we have found out why our numbers of positive cv-19 are going up. we are now testing all inmates of aged care facilities and their staff, no exceptions. huge numbers. whole aged care facilities are being emptied into hospitals for better care.

6:30 pm

the waiting is almost the worst part. i truly empathise. i nearly chewed all my nails off.

good, as long as they do not send them back there to convalesce. that caused deaths here

6:31 pm

no. the plan is too keep them all 'locked down' in the hospital ward until all are well again.meanwhile the facilities are being deep cleaned.

6:32 pm

first bo5/14 pls

i am sick of being in. i am working at the festival next friday night. social distancing is enforced, must buy your table

6:32 pm

hi all

6:33 pm

i also feel for the staff. they no longer have paid work. fortunately our government is going to keep up the 'job keeper' payments for all.no questions asked.

wait, they fired them?

6:34 pm

hi peri. bo5/14, pl of bo4/6

6:34 pm

don't have the bo4/6

6:34 pm

no they haven't been 'fired'. just the people they were caring for are no longer at their work place.

they moved all of them?

6:35 pm

peri, b04/6, short for automaton + vowel

6:35 pm

yes, TO. without exception.

oh, got it

6:36 pm

ty rose

i need to buckle down to this one. good night, rose

6:36 pm

it's the only way to make sure all the sickies are found and cared for at the same time.

6:37 pm

night TO. happy babbling

what if one is not sick or positive?

6:38 pm

then they are moved into a shared room with others who are not positive. the obviously sick ones are put together.

ah, i see. bye!

6:40 pm

It's sad. This virus seems to be wiping out the sick, elderly population.

6:41 pm

agreed Molly. but we are now also finding new borns with cv-19 too. it is so tragic.

6:42 pm

and with the 20-30 year olds not being compliant, that generation is dying too.

6:44 pm

that really doesn't leave a lot of fertile people to raise the next generation .

6:46 pm

All due respect to all those comments, I'm not ready to believe that this is the end of everything.

6:49 pm

i pray it is not, too Molly. but the figures are mind-blowing. i'm not sure but i think we have passed the numbers form the Spanish flu pandemic in the early 1900's.

6:53 pm

We human beings have an amazing resiliency. And I think that has to do with our capacity for hope and belief. This is the time for the collective soul to believe in the best.

6:54 pm

Negative, doom and gloom vibes about what is going on don't really do any of us any good. Enough of my thoughts on this.

6:57 pm

thanx Molly. i acknowledge i was more than just a litle negative. it is the first time i have tried to put my thoughts on this virus into words. we must persevere through this. you are so right. and hope is one of the greatest ways to overcome despair.

6:58 pm

That's okay. It's a hard thing to work through.

7:04 pm

Rose - You got to stop watching the 11am media address by Dan. Yes it is depressing and at the moment never ending down here in Victoria but it will if we can ALL do the right thing. PS Spanish Flu killed some 50 million and at 674 thousand for Covid (all worldwide) obviously doctors and scientists have made huge progress over the years and we all trust they will find a cure /vaccine for this one in the not too distant future.

7:08 pm

*wry grin* stopped watching Dan the man weeks ago. found it too hard . and thanx for the number crunch. i was wondering. btw i'm starting back with my psychologist hopefully next week. this last lock down has brought me dangerously low.

7:11 pm

At least other countries have leaders that care about the people. The United States has to put with a leader who only thinks about himself and his poll numbers.

7:16 pm

All we can do is stay safe Rose...and both of us can be grateful we are in comfortable homes with gardens we can go out into as many haven't got those luxuries. I assume you are doing things through your church? Like making masks! Anyhow, keep safe.

7:17 pm

jpc, my prayers have not stopped for the citizens of the USofA. it's been so tough watching all the shenanigans going on. i am a newly rcognised empath. which explains why i truly deeply feel others emotions.

7:17 pm

Bye all

7:19 pm

lyn, would you believe i am still cooking for the community? the only thing i can do is make soups which can be froze. under strict controls these are being given to those in the community who cannot fend for themselves. at least i know i may have stopped someone's hunger, if only for a little while.

7:19 pm

have a lovely day, lyn. enjoy the sunshine.

7:19 pm
