Well done, ru.
Hi all. Is anyone having trouble with MoreWords. Its gone peculiar. Thanks
It isn't working for me either helen
Jess..has it gone all numerical..computer speak??
yep, it says connection refused at the top of the page
yes. Maybe it will be OK later?
I hope so, I find it easier to use than a2zwordfinder
that's odd, it's working for me right now.
i tried re-starting computer and re-opening app but it still looks corrupted. any ideas?
I tried another browser, and cleared browsing history, no luck. It doesn't work on my phone either
ok thanks. so its not just me (paranoia)! May have to wait and see if it rectifies unless another solution is suggested.
Still working here, it's set for words with friends - not sure if the other two settings for scrabble make any difference.
could i get a clue please for the st6 before the roadway
st + a fisherman uses a rod and this

Morewords is back! Whew!
It was gone?
another new word for me Molly
I haven't been having any trouble with morewords
I am truly amazed at how good some people are at this game. Ru knocked this one out in an hour, this morning. Bravo.
and he thinks he's not top tier!
Our humble Ru.

Yes, they are not your common A's.

Yes, I

My computer sucks!
mine's a little old but okay. though the keyboard could use a cleaning. it does drop letters occasionally.
Time for Bea to invest in a new machine
Yoo hoo! Mr. Bea! I have a Christmas present idea!
Yes, but I life with Ebenezer.
This is why every woman needs her own secret stash of cash.
haha. yeah, mine is 8 years old but I think it will have to die deader than a doornail before Mr. BF approves a new one. his is even older and slower at least.
hello all
I do have my secret cash stash but everyone knows where it is. luckily they ask me if they need change or something.
hey, aslindy

I just got a picture of my granddaughter "distance learning" while they are traveling to MN.
i dont understand that af clue?
i have af 5/6
After all these years and dozens of times watching The Sound of Music, I just now learned the correct name of the song about the musical notes.
which is?
clue for the re9 pls?
not do-re-mi?
I actually have the soundtrack on vinyl but don't recall it.
thats what i thought hokie
if I were upstairs I'd look. or I could just google.
Yup, it's Do Re Mi
isn't the title the same as the first line?
i havent listened to it in years and i havent watched the movie again
mlf, a+ the first 4 letters of a fried cornbread pancake
I have always thought it was Doe A Deer
I saw the movie for the first time in the 2000s. bought the album at a flea market
atire
The Rre9 is goes into again
I was in the school choir not long after it came out and still remember singing that.
maybe I'll listen to that later. I watched Hamilton again the other day and can't get a song from that out of my head
that's what I thought. (not like you to drop a PB, Molly)
I heard Helpless yesterday and it's still going through my head
have that word
yes it is, she likes to tend bar in there!
fent
centre
can't think of the name of the one stuck in my head because it's just a few lines playing over and over but it's an Aaron Burr one.
oops. now I went and did it. for shsame!
The Room where it Happened :)
ty Bea
Hey, the more the merrier in the PB. Bar's open.
Oh, crap, sorry. I misread that. the navy has a f* of ships, change the 2nd letter in that and add A to the beginning, mlf.
I have not jumped on the Hamilton bandwagon.
*cheers*
Why am I looking for a stupid s4...???
This is one strange grid.
good morning everyone :)
nope, sukee, it's dear theodosia
Ah
I got Disney + just to watch Hamilton
now I'm listening it'll be stuck forever
But there have been other perks like The Mandalorian :)
Just been through the chat -- trying to figure out what a fried cornbread pancake is -- can't picture it -- something like french toast?
we disney+ for the Mandalorian and Hamilton was a bonus when it came to it.
need to rewatch the mandalorian before S2 comes out
Nan, it would be like a fried apple donut or pastery
not a corn pone but a corn f6, dur, f7
pastry
never had either of those either -- bust be food found in the southeast US
why would you fry a pastry?
*must be
And I will join all those in the PB. Blood Mary, Molly. Please make it spicy.
LOL, why would you fry anything, to make it better!
It is southern,nan -- but closer to the French
yeah, beignets are french
Have you every had an egg dish that was a fr**tta?
Bloody Mary for the lady, extra hot, just like her. : D
trying to imagine a danish, fried -- grease city~
I have the first 4 letters of that, can't figure out the rest
don't remind me - fr's are so delicious ....and with mape syrup, so fattening
You are in BC nan? I wonder what food is there since you never know any foods mentioned here nor is there poutine there
They eat snow there Carla : D
Hey!
as long as it's not yellow
no grease, nan. Just crispy outside, cake-y inside
You can't have a Monte Cristo sammich w/o frying, lol.
poutine is FRench Canadian -- other side of the continent.
yeah, we've been through this, that's why I mentioned it
and they had poutine in Canmore
Speaking of maple...I going to make maple glazed pork chops for dinner tonight.
so nan, you've never had a doughnut? that is fried pastry
ugh, maple is one of one 3 smells I can't handle
Just not a fan of fried foods -- prefer fresh fruit and veggies, baked chicken to fried. Yes doughnuts are deep fried - not something I eat more than a couple of times a year.
There must be something in Canada that resembles a fritter. It's probably got a different name.
I loved fried foods, unfortunately my acid reflux does not.
I know fritter, I don't know the other
Oh look, first Google search...Canadian apple fritters.
yeah, unless it's gluten free and fried in a gluten free fryer it doesn't agree with me either
They probably do have poutine in Canmore - a tourist area - but it is not native to Canmore. I had never heard of poutine until a few years ago -- and we lived in Montreal for 8 years in the 60's & 70's
Change the first vowel, sukee
no more for me either, sukee, but my taste buds have memories . . .
I know. mmm, fried pickles are good too
I agree, love those
kosher pickles?
Frittatas are actually Italian
I still eat fried foods, but in moderation.
I don't ev4 know what word we're looking for as I missed the earlier part .I guess eventually I'll scroll back.
Yes, dill pickles.
I'm pretty stoked. My microwave died yesterday.
If I'm just eating pickles I like bread & butter more than dill, but dill are better fried. zaxby's actually had fried bread & butter ones when I could still eat such things.
If I'm going to eat something fried it's going to be chicken or shrimp
my grandfather had a pickle factory - oh, my gosh - I just realized that was a hundred years ago\
so you're stoked you're getting a new one or that you won't have one?
About the only fried foods I eat now are scrambled eggs or an omelet -- and I use those pans that don't require fat to cook them (enough fat in the cheese in the omelet)
mmm, fried chicken
Bea why are you glad your microwave died?
Nan, that doesn't even count as a fried food.
yeah, we're talking deep fried stuff, not stuff you make in a skillet
oh well -- my arteries are cholesterol free :)
In a skillet with no butter. That is like diet food.
A pizza place near me sells batters deep fried pickles.
battered
microwave is all i've got. If it dies I'll be doing raw fruit and veg.
fried pickles make me want to cuke
I haven't had a microwave in years, just use my oven
yeah, that's what I was talking about sukee. anything deep fried is battered here in the south. ;)
There used to be a place around here with really good deep fried mozzarella but they closed.
here's ru coming in salty
It's the same in Scotland, they will fry anything. I lived there until I was 12
yeah, there's an italian place here with the best fried mozzarella ever. alas...
are you gherkin us around again ru?
twice-fried tater tots
If Ru is here he's going to talk about how he only eats healthy and how much weight he has lost. Hate him if you must.
Molly, since my microwave died, I can get a combo air fryer, rotisserie, toaster oven.
nope, he's just here to pun
Good one, Nan.
So, I get it now. In order for you to get something new, the one you have has to die. Simple. Take a hammer to your computer. We will never tell Ebeneezer.
I love fried raviolis
Have to run, take care
bye sukee
hi Ru - Are the fires all gone? Did you get smoked out/ I thought of you when everyone in San Francisco was complaining about the smoke.
bye sukee
bye sukee
I re6 a pot all the time when cooking, why with the arbitrary re's??
I never use the microwave, Molly.
that's why I asked, bea, wasn't sure which direction you were going with the stoked. also didn't know you were a surfer. ;)
I guess ru just did a pun and run
In my day, Carla. =) I have a surfer son and grandson.
the fire is done for now.. and there's no smoke up here
You're right,Carla. No pun here but i gotta run. See ya!
I only use my microwave to soften butter. My son heats up his food in it because he eats so slowly that his meals get cold.
I don't have room for both appliances.
i wouldn't have a microwave in my house and had it taken out
I use mine a lot :D
Aha, he's back. Ru, are the fires all out?
Yes, Mom uses it to heat her water for tea. Mr. Bea uses it to heat up leftovers for lunch. Oh, dear. What is he going to do today?
I use mine to reheat tea and coffee and to make sauces
yes.. they're done up here now
you all were around pre-microwave ovens so that's why you don't like them. j/k I actually remember getting one in the 80s I guess.
People who are into serious cooking find microwaves gauche
I prefer the toaster oven and would get rid of the microwave/toaster oven/air fryer if I got a combo, lol. Counter space in my kitchen is at a premium. heck, even better if they made one that brews coffee, too, lol.
Got it, thanks,Ru. You've had enough for a lifetime. Hope they've done enough burnback that it won't come near you again. Tough about the wineries. It's got to have hurt the local economy.
I know Molly, that's why I said with pride I use mine a lot
I'm with you, ame.
I have about six square feet of counterspace in my kitchen.
the fire threatens napa every year now. I don't know what's left to burn.. it's been awful up here but this week has been back to normal (if you can call these times normal?)
I've been using my instant pot a lot!
I have a nice sized kitchen maybe 10 feet of counterspace in a u
I have very limited counter space. The only thing I leave on the counter is the juicer and the coffee maker.
I may have (being generous) about 22 sq" and no cabinets...
No creamery butter in the microwave I hope Molly?
need lots of space in a kitchen -- like to spread stuff out when I cook or bake -- also need all the cupboards for storage
jeezus amelu i couldn't live with that
No creamery butter Ru. Nan, I dream of a big kitchen.
I'm guessing you don't make epic breakfasts either
Good gabbing with you all. Time for me to pull up the body pillow and fold myself to sleep. Happy Babbling.
Amelu how do you have that huge yard and such a tiny kitchen space? Seriously, submarines have bigger kitchens than that.
sleep well jw
I have 2 toaster ovens (one for gluten free), a coffee maker, a bread machine, and I utensil caddy on the counters. the instant pot and kitchen aid mixer have to go in cabinets
bye jw
Oh I make amazing breakfast. I wouldn't say they are epic though.
good night jwr
thanks, g'day and g'nite.
my most epic breakfasts are when we have breakfast for supper
Oh God I could never keep the bread machine on the kitchen counter. That thing is a beast.
I'm pretty darn good at breakfast too
it's on a little counter section next to the fridge, not the main counter
I know, lol. My kitchen is in the original part of the house (A-frame). On a guess, 10x13 foot space. Add stove, fridge, a few under the counter cabinets and the walk/work area is about 4x8'
I would love to have a commercial refrigerator in my kitchen.
me too
we have a fridge in the garage and basement so actually have too much fridge space now
I just looked at the air fryer/toaster over/rotisseries. Now I have appliance envy. : D
We are looking at a small chest freezer to go into the garage.
I didn't even know it was a thing
Isn't it the bomb, Molly! Can't wait!
we had a stand up freezer in the garage but didn't replace it when it died.
definitely kept it filled but just made do and then didn't need it
I could never have a chest freezer. I have seen too many movies where dead bodies are hidden in them. : D
I don't make enough food here to need a freezer
exactly. and bea didn't say what she was going to use it for.
we have a fridge/freezer, upright freezer and dorm fridge in garage and reefer in the kitchen and front lobby area, lol. (front lobby area reefer is on it's last legs, I just have to xfer frozen to another freezer)
what is my missing H?
I make tons of soup that can be frozen. I could start making my holiday cookies earlier to put in the freezer.
he 7
same one I'm missing :)
Amelu has reefer in her front hall. Let's all go to her house.
yep, thx, ru
Bea, that's what I want! Haven't taken the time to read reviews, yet.
That's what I was thinking Molly!
no wonder amelu needs three fridges she gets the munchies
lol
I have reefers everywhere, Molly, lol. Thank God I don't have one in one of the sheds!
ame, I am on a FB group that posts some of the best recipes for the air fryer and rotisserie.
is he7 an everyday word (for normal people)
I'd like those recipes but not Cindy's
it is for a bunch of hanks hokie
he7 - 8 English kings (It's really units)
maybe Cindy makes good food in her bras, ru!
I didn't close the door on the air fryer enough and it popped open and the tempered glass insert (in the door) fell out and shattered... Good excuse, I think, lol.
At the end of the puzzle, I'm always enlightened, but right now, I can't comprehend 12 j words. :)
Cindy The Bra Wearing Zoom Meeting attendant has reached celebrity status.
Jen, I have only found 6. I feel the same about J's
And she doesn't cook. She makes her husband do it.
I'm glad I'm not alone!
Women who have men cooking for them have it made big time.
why do i get the feeling that Cindy is a narcisist ?
She is a big bully, that's for sure.
I bet he does her pedicures too.
last night was taco tuesday and mr. homie was like, are you going to make those tacos, and I was like, I thought you were. but then I ended up doing it. :<
I cooked for my wife for 30 years almost every day I was home
ok, guess my missing C (still looking for the H, but I appreciate the clues)
My son does most of the cooking in his house.
cooking relaxes me .. i love it
my brother does literally everything at his house. I feel bad for him.
Formal name for Hank, Carla.
My husband does the cooking, but he really does enjoy it more than I do.
the only oddball C is the auto manufacturer
ah, thank you bea!
that's it, amelu, thanks!
I was off the other day and cooked most of the day. I enjoy it.
I like cooking if I have a recipe and all the ingredients. I do not do well at planning out meals though.
I agree, Carla -- we did Hello Fresh for a while and really liked it. Expensive, though.
Clue for the fe6? My last one.
anise with another ending consonant bea
I like cooking on Sundays for the week but have fallen down on that job lately...Cooking is great, shopping suqs. I also make enough for an "army" but extras go in the freezer (in pt containers) so my husband can grab and take to the hunting camp with him so he doesn't have to cook...
I love planning and cooking our meals.
fe6 - desert fox
yeah, we did Hello Fresh too but they stopped having 6 or whatever number of gluten free meals each week so I couldn't do it, but I loved every meal I made.
Taco Tuesday sounds fun to me.. I may do that next week
I didn't know they curtailed the gluten-free stuff -- not cool.
I haven't looked in a while
Thanks for that sly little devil.
I think there is a character with a similar name in some book series, but I can't remember off the top of my head. maybe hunger games?
Now I have three gallons of runny apple butter that must go on the stove to thicken.
That's why I need a commercial fridge.
bye bea
yes, hunger games
*food thought - I always make 2 lbs of red beans because I put up about 1/2 of it in the freezer to throw into chili when I make it... I also recommend a vacuum sealer for such things, lol.
not that red beans is not more of a regional thing, but...
red beans and rice didn't miss her
and that is my baby got back reference for the day
I'd like to jump in on the meal planning thing. Have you heard of Meal Lime? It's the best. Check it out.
have not, will check out, thx
LOL! Haven't seen that. Thought 'how did Carla know how big my butt is?'
I like big butts and I cannot lie
okay, that's my last baby got back reference, I swear
You can put in all your restrictions or desires and it will give you some great meal plan optiions plus a grocery list and how to cut down on waste.
one thing you and Kayne West have in common Hokie
ugh
150 down - bbl
name that proper noun - addictive nasal spray
afrin
ding ding ding!
so terribly bad for you
Bea must have dozens of people she gifts at Christmas. 3 gallons of apple butter?
The saline spray is a great alternative to Afrin.
yep
But I draw the line at using a netti pot. Ew.
when I was a kid there was a man at church addicted to afrin. he was spraying that stuff all the time.
I have used a neti pot but with the whole brain eating ameba thing I stopped
I have one F left...
got it by scrolling through my list, an easy one
brain eating what?
there's a thing in lakes in the south that if it goes up your nose it can turn out really bad and kill you. usually farther south than us but there was a case at the US Nat'l Whitewater Center here in Charlotte a couple of years ago.
Yeah, no neti. I can't stand anything/one messing with my nose/face. (childhood 'trauma') so. uh, nope, not if I have a choice...
https://tinyurl.com/y4vv87tq
we've had cases of flesh eating bacteria in the gulf, not so much in the rivers but it depends on the tides... I haven't heard much about that since the world lost its mind, tho… guess if it's still going on, it's being blamed on the beer flu.
they did the brain eating one on a House episode, hokie!
and, in general, unless you have any type of open wound you should be good... keep in mind, scabs tend to slough off when soaked in water.
i was like, um, why is there no public health education about this??
that's the only thing that can explain the republican senate brain eating bacteria.. no wonder they're useless and nuts
or they could have those sluggy things from Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan
looks like the brain eating one is almost always fatal!
yeah that was the impression i got
anyhoo, I think there have been cases of people getting it from neti pot and tap water
which was the case on the House episode.
*steps in, wondering if that's what has happened to my brain*
nope, you would be dead welki
hi Welki!!
then, i suppose i'll have to find something else to blame this brain fog on :D
hi, marks
tern
whoopsie
fireworks!!
*ahem*
lol
tern was your last word?? I wish it was that easy
I'll run before you put me in PB,,,
The things you learn here on Babble. 12 foot snakes who eat women and netti pots eating your brain. Who needs The National Enquirer?
i have two pairs of ce words. what are the other Cs?
there is a ch
got it! but thought it'd be proper
same

jen still here? finally found 2 more j's. hint: they start with your name.
thanks hoke

jean shorts
can't believe you've never seen that
ah
sometimes written as jhorts
ick
oh, found one ore
more

je4, we may have different ones
4/10? at the beginning of the j's?
it is the last je4 I have
ok then no
before or after the other ones you just clued, the 6/7 ?
before
I have 3 je4
and is it a plural then? cause i do have that
ok yes same
yes, I suppose
so you must have already had something ELSE that i don't have, aha i see what it is
I only have one jo
ditto
i just hadn't pluralled for people who make fun of
hmm, is pluralled a word? I think maybe pluralized ;)
if you wanna be STUFFY, sure
lol
;)
I'm not stuffy, I already said I have a microwave and use it all the time unlike others here ;)
how come i am missing only one upper T, but 3 lower, when the upper has way more words?
I need 3 upper and 5 lower!
it's because most of the words you can make with the lower actually come from the upper
yeah
just got 2 off the bottom
and 2 more, just need 1 now
oh you are getting ahead of me while i typed a comment on facebook!!
feel free to suggest what you think i might've missed :D
I guess my 4 were related to an exam
I think I have 3 tr and the rest from that one are te
do you have the worm?
still not seeing the 12th. BBS
woorrrm... hmmm
you seem to learn more babblet definitions than i do lol
hi all help with either 9. I know one is re9
aHA ok i found a word, looked it up, and it's a worm, so that's something
i haven't hit 9s yet peri
ok
Happy Wednesday peeps!

aHA - ve9
people who put an outer layer or facade onto a surface
ty
still 3 more Vs, groan
Stats please for the A?
af5/6 combo, and alt spelling 6/7 combo
For Peri...ve9 one who puts white film on your teeth, plural and re9 places to go in again
ty for the A's. Got em!
i have ve8 that goes with 9, and i have a te8. anyone have others?
someone just sent the following to me -- giving me a smile, so thought I'd pass it on (too bad it's the truth)
Politics explained: MY SON WAS FLUNKING OUT OF COLLEGE SO I TOLD HIM, "YOU WILL MARRY THE GIRL I CHOOSE." HE SAID, "NO." I TOLD HIM, “SHE'S BILL GATES' DAUGHTER." HE SAID, "YES." I CALLED BILL GATES AND SAID, "I WANT YOUR DAUGHTER TO MARRY MY SON." BILL GATES SAID, "NO." I TOLD BILL GATES, "MY SON IS THE CEO OF THE WORLD BANK." BILL GATES SAID, "OK." I CALLED THE PRESIDENT OF THE WORLD BANK AND ASKED HIM TO MAKE MY SON THE CEO. HE SAID, "NO." I TOLD HIM, "MY SON IS BILL GATES' SON-IN-LAW." HE SAID, "OK." AND THAT'S EXACTLY HOW POLITICS WORKS. And thus, began the practice of hiring morons to work in influential positions of government. This practice remains unbroken to this day.
lol
since that scrolled everything down, i will repeat my clue request: i have ve8 that goes with 9, and i have a te8. anyone have others?
re 8
re 9 - unrelated
yeah i have the 9 but not the 8
i don't have the te 8 though
think itty bitty
ty hurshy
this is my only missing R word now! lol
think of a hunting dog -- golden
ty
isn't that the kind of dog ru has?
i dinna ken
name that foreign noun! french for window
fenetre
ding ding ding!!!
Kettle to an Australian?
?
How is a kettle referred to in Australia...
i haven't the faintest idea
Bizarrely, they call it 'the jug'
and is this related to a word in the grid?
Nah, was just piggy-backing upon the foreign noun with a foreign/not foreign example
aha
My favourite from time in Australia was finding out that 'to have a look' or 'be nosey' is 'to have a sticky'; ie. they have a sticky beak and can't keep their nose out. Strangely enough, the person I first heard say this seemed incredulous as to my confusion...
I'm going to be quiet now and type into the other box...
my golden never re8s. he runs and gets stuff and occasionally brings it back but won't drop it.
and that was my last R on the bottom, thx
a fox? no reynard, so...
hurshy, did you finish the T's?
ah, there's the last one from the bottom
I always miss that one
not finding the last 2 T's from the top if anyone wants to take a gander
a little hard to guess when there are 26 of them
come on, nan, you can do better than that. ;) (I agree with you)
would you rather guess my missing n's from 2nd row?
still missing a couple from there myself
down to 28. 13 open tiles, all 4 or less left
ni 5/16 might be your missing one
that was one, thanks!
missing 3 v's
same
6, 7 or 8
LOL, just made my dog jump up from out of his nap by singing the end of Do-Re-Mi (yes, I had to play the album after the earlier mention)
One of the 6's is thin slice of wood, the other is a sound-alike that means the group from which jurors are selected.
I was struggling with a st6,18 - tx to MollyL for earlier clue.
clg, was it like a road but different ending?
jan, are these v6 you are referring to?
ty jan, VE6/7
Sorry, yes
bbl
I think I have those already
I haven't listed so I didn't know if there were other ve/6 and 7s.
yeah, I don't know either
still have 3 missing
There is a ve6/7 that ends in a three letter word for anger
That's the jury one, I think
oh, an i word for anger? I don't have those
I don't know what you are looking for then. A 7 that ends in a word that means creepy, plural?
I didn't say an eye word, although it is. I try not to give more than the first two letters of the word in a clue.
me? I'm just looking for 3 v's. and yes, I know you don't but then it didn't fit what I thought jan was saying so I wanted to clarify.

Stand By Me, The Story of Lard-Ass Hogan
ding ding ding!!
The best lines from that movie are: Gordy: Bullshit Chris: Bulltrue I use bulltrue all the time
haha, I don't remember that. will have to use it.

Thanks for the a stats. Will go looking now. Called away before
oh just found them finally.
18 left
2nd te 7/28?
2nd one I have is like a nickname for shoes
ty carla!
np!
another d relating to the one I just found...2 4's left - can I find them before listing
the answer is no
wow, still 9 after the list. I guess I should feel good about that. if I can't find them with the list then I really don't know them.
well, en8 is a completely new word to me. how is everyone finding that? didn't see any mentions in earlier chat.
I haven't found it so a clue would be appreciated
looks spanish or french, means pregnant
it is french
yhanks got it
np
just realized my earlier comments about Hello Fresh were actually about Home Chef. I have not tried Hello Fresh.
The cost of those meal delivery services is way beyond my budget. And a lot of the meals they provide look like stuff we wouldn't like.
I do much better being creative with what is on sale at the grocery store.
hello all. help with either 9 pls/ I know one is an re9
no re9 after you go outside unless you have a hand stamp at the concert
the VE 9 builds off the ve 6/27; cover (something) with a decorative layer of fine wood. The VE8 is a person who does it and the VE9 is more than one person.
ty for ve9
ty car for re9 too
60 left and slow going. may go outside since the sun is out and I think it is in the 70's
Yup...slow going here as well
Molly, I am a pretty picky eater, but mr. homie wanted to try a meal delivery service for either Xmas or anniversary, so I decided I would give stuff a try. I think I made everything as is and found every meal delicious. and it was stuff I'd never buy and make.
We tried Blue Apron for a while, and I really liked it.
it's like those chefs really know what they're doing ;)
Seriously! And it was all very doable. My husband would just change his mind about what he wanted that day, and next thing you know, we have things we aren't eating. He's too ADD for it! ;)
I had one meal that said "expert" but I didn't have any problems.
Definitely tried things I wouldn
Oops...wouldn't have tried otherwise.
just checked out hello fresh and they're even less helpful than home chef. home chef at least calls out allergens. hello fresh says it is up to you to look at the recipes. ok, so it will take 2x as long to pick meals. no thanks.
That's ridiculous! The point of those services is to make things easier. Try Blue Apron. It had several options as I recall.
hey all, just getting started
Welcome!
hey champ, happy wednesday
:) Just picking through my last 40. It's a slog right now...
132 left for me now
9 left - have gone to list and still stuck
first ve 7 please?
Down to 25.
reech
CRAP! SORRY
nm - found it
now I need the ve 6-7 that follows the thin top layer
ah - found them too
so do I
Hey now!
guess I should take a break more often!
Clearly!
sounds like the thin layer & plural
oh and i missed french last
en 8 please?
It's french, and means "with child".
tried that, but wasn't accepted
I can attempt a clue: en + copper money with an extra vowel in the middle and on the end.
ok -- took it this time - ty - must have made a typo before
Hey moo, rehi nan
Woohoo! Just got a weird fake Amazon phone call about my account. The scams out there now are amazing and aplenty!
Thanks, champ, will check out blue apron. But I think I’ve looked at them before.
oh - what is the scam this time? I just ordered something from them, so will probably be "hit" as well
Yes, I got one yesterday from “Apple†saying someone was trying to hack my icloud. Yet, it was a robovoice and they were spoofing my phone exchange, so I just hung up.
They have detected suspicious activity on my account, and I should not use my account until "it can fix". I could also push 1 for more information.
Sounds legit. Nope
Exactly...robovoice, and a person's name shows up as the sender.
ji 6/39 please?
Is it a truck?
I had to look it up, it’s lillke a nickel bus or streetcar
Small bus...I was close!
ty champ and carla - horse drawn bus I think
Before my time!
woot, this is the advantage of reading old books - y'all made me get it real fast :D
*!*~*!* any clues wanted?
Congrats!
Has anyone else watched the new series "The Trouble with Maggie Cole"?
Haven't heard of that one
If you liked To the Manner Born -- I think Maggie is the new Mrs. Buckett
Haven’t heard of either
Is this canadian netflix?
Trouble with Maggie Cole is on PBS I think
They are both British shows - Manner Born is off the air now, but Maggie Cole has just premiered on PBS
not CA - we get it out of Seattle
hello friends
hi trif
sorry - not pbs -- cbs (KIRO in Seattle)
hi!
hi, everyone
hello !
hi welki -- do you have snow on the ground?
yes
oh i cannot even imagine! snow already!
trif, the mountains are covered, resorts are getting ready to (hopefully) open
ok -- will have to call our son with a little razzing :)
gasp
I knew there was snow on the pass, and our ski hills are getting snow now, but still above freezing in the valley so far.
hagd everyone -- stay safe.
there are not four a words. its is just a mean joke
get one, get them all
Dumb words.
hi welk
Yeah, that is pretty much it. They are all similar in a way.
owl - how's your eye?
meh. i go for post op on tuesday
nothing wrong with my stomach though. i ate a dozne ginger cookies over three days.
clue for the te6,21 please?
love ginger cookies, good for you!
four a day - sounds right to me :) i saw someone walking who could be your twin - i did a double-take, wondering how the heck you got over the border (and why you were here!)
it is the recipe in my profile.
that's funny.
well, at least it WAS in my profile. someone asked for it last fall.
I am not a serious Babble player and I do not comment in the chats. But I just read your 2020 COVID story, Temple Owl, and I had to thank you.
okay, back again...91 left
That is actually Kelly Corrigan's story in TO's profile. It's very well written.
Thanks, Molly. I should have looked closer. And thanks, Temple Owl, for posting it.
It is often true that the worst of times brings out the best in people. If there is a best to bring out, that is. COVID and September 11th are two examples of how some people rose to the occasion.
help with the en8 - please.
En8 french word meaning pregnant
Thank you so much.
Two :-)
Yw!!
Not two!! LOL
merci beaucoup, une
i yell NO FAIR. that is a french word. never saw or heard it in english. not fair.
Good morning all
Of course it's fair mkg! There are lots of non-English words accepted by enable and found in the grids.
i don't mind French words....better than Indian ones... ;o)
Perhaps not so good for someone of Indian origin though ;)
MKG: in English it means an enclosure or the enclosing wall of a fortified place.
i recognized it as the pregnant word....
Me too.
the french word for last is also in the grid...
Merci beaucoup - I was just looking for that word.
thanks, penquis
yw...
Hee hee :-)
don't usually engage in gratuitous clueing... ;o)
A clue for the last je 6/7 pair please.
nm
I hope that no je7 make fun of you for not getting it sooner : D
Shouldn't do - because I had that pair.
Pen blurted!!
The last ji pls? ji 6/39
ji + wh***** houston....
Thanks :)
not sure I got the asterisks right....
I knew what you meant.
should have been j +....
Oh my God, Pen clued with stars. She has become "one of them"
lol.....couldn't think of any other way....
New word for me. I'd seen the clue earlier where the meaning was given but couldn't work it out from that.
new one for me, too....
The ji6 is a Southern US word. Not likely to be known by people from other countries or the Northern states would know.
:)
Fireworks
Have a good day / evening everyone.
There used to be a grocery chain in Mississippi called Ji6 Jungle.
i am not enjoying this grid very much....
ji6 is used in lawn guisland - the buses that go back and forth to nyc
interesting....um.....what is lawn guisland?
the lawng peninsula near new york city.
ah, ok....never heard of it...
I have never heard of that either
/me bangs his head on the table.
long island.
sorry for my cosmopolitan sense of humor.
LOL....
gotta go - zoom meeting in 2 minutes
bye harry...
I thought it was lawng guyland
Why do teachers have zoom meetinga at this hour of the night?
could be a parent meeting
I'm really tired of people having to make these kinds of accommodations because of COVID.
Molly, I usually say Lawn Guyland. Was born there, but left before age 1 so only my oldest brother kept a bit of the accent.
i am done....heading out.....goodnight all....
Congratulations penquis on your fireworks! Hooray for U!
Hello all!Today,October 21,2020 is Babbling Day so happy babbling to all on Babbling Day! Should I estart this grid?
you are such a shiksa nrkii :D
I love the word shiksa. I have a Jewish friend who calls me his favorite Irish shiksa.
Poor Molly - having to put up with other people's schedule changes
molly, it's a good word when used well :)
Huh? I don't have to put up with other people's schedule changes.
You were just complaining about COVID obliging teachers to have Zoom meetings at unusual times.
It would have been perfectly acceptable to just let the comment sit and not make a big deal about it
On the train yesterday, I tried to find one spot I could sit (or stand, even) that didn't have someone yammering away without a mask (which are currently required on transit here), and I couldn't.
That despite the fact that COVID is at an all-time high here and rising.
Yeah, I feel bad for people like Harry whose lives have been made difficult due to COVID. Harry has a bunch of kids. I'm sure he has better things to do at this time of night. But thanks for your concern.
Ugh, Gillie, I'm so sorry. That must have been unsettling. I would not be able to ride the train.
I'm tired of it, too, but at least I don't think we should just pretend it isn't happening.
Molly, it's possible that it's just routine parent teacher conferences, or that he has a zoom with friends. Not necessarily a COVID accommodation. But of course you might be right.
Sorry Molly - I guess I was just taking my frustration out on you.
Well I was just expressing my frustration about the way COVID has forced people into lifestyles they may not be happy with. Not to mention all the things it has canceled that are important family events.
I asked a friend how her mom was doing in Florida. She said, "she's just done with it all." I laughed and said, "and that differentiates her from the other 300 million of us how?" We're all done with it, only we are not allowed to be done with it. Sigh...
I think it's weird that we live in this modern world with all these high tech, modern conveniences, and science has not evolved enough to have seen this coming and prevented it.
weird... sad... confusing... yep
People did see it coming, but the people in charge didn't take it seriously and take appropriate measures.
down to 3 words -- all Vs
Okay, I'm going to step out of this conversation.
That was true pretty much world-wide, unfortunately.
help on first ve7 please?
It's a plural of a word ending in 'y'
nm, got it
FW!
yay!
Congratulations nrkii on your fireworks display!Way to go
Have a great night, all. Stay cheerful!
Incidentally, I gather that bus drivers in the UK (or London?) early in the epidemic had a higher rate of death from COVID-19 than health workers, because they didn't have masks, barriers, etc.
en 8 Pls?
French for pregnant
ty, gillie
yw - I just found it

Oh, it's hard to clue otherwise. Maybe you could try googling "French for pregnant"?
