2:28 am

mab

I do love yorkshire pudding - my mother used to make it, and declare it a failure every time. Twas yummy though with gravy and roast beast.

2:29 am

renfield

i've never had yorkshire pudding, i've only read about it.

2:30 am

FMitch

mab - have to admit mine are shop bought as they come out perfect everytime and only take a few mins.

2:30 am

knutmeg

You are all making me so very jealous... My grandma is making enchilada casserole, which is basically slimy tortillas with a vaguely americanized mexican flavor. Its really quite not nummy.

2:32 am

2:33 am

2:39 am

knutmeg

I will say, thankfully my husband (who is not attending easter dinner due to the fact that he has to be asleep aroudn the same time my grandma is serving dinner because he works so very early the next morning) is preparing a small ham dinner for me to eat later in the night, to make up for the casserole.

2:45 am

FMitch

LOL knut, how's little Olivia doing?

2:46 am

Arisha

good afternoon all, hope you all enjoying the easter break

2:46 am

knutmeg

2:49 am

FMitch

I must be off soon too, allowing myself babble time till 9am (10 more mins).

2:51 am

KatieMcG

fmitch - me too, I should be doing it at all as I slept in and don't have time!

Morning ruthy
..... and micamonkey - where have you been???

3:16 am

Haz1558

How have you found the grid so far? At first sight I thought it was going to be awkward but there are some nice words there.

3:17 am

FMitch

hhmm, well yes some good words but most seem to be deeply buried at the mo, only found 60 so far.

3:18 am

Haz1558

So, break it to me gently then, my optimism is soon to be replaced?

3:19 am

FMitch

nah, you will be fine, I think Im just not seeing words today as not concentraing fully. :)

3:21 am

Haz1558

I'll not have too long to work at it this morning as I'm cooking lunch - my sister's 50th birthday is today and we're having a little dinner for her.

3:26 am

ExWren

Morning Fmitch. Sorry I didn't get back to you yesterday re: family tree, by the time I read your post, you had long gone.
I have researched my mothers family back to 1750's in North Oxfordshire villages

3:27 am

Atalante

hi all :)

3:27 am

Haz1558

Good morning Ex-Wren and Atalante!

3:29 am

Atalante

I was not going to do this puzzle today, but it has one of my favourite words in it, so I couldn't resist!

3:29 am

FMitch

ExWren - wow that is good going, we will have to chat sometime.
mica - gotta go, good to see you again.
Hi Atalante.

Hate to run just as everyone is coming on but I have to go
*poof*

3:30 am

Atalante

hi and bye!

3:30 am

ExWren

Morning Haz, not sure if I am playing again today, I am immersed in my Family Tree at the moment, and I have some free time on Ancestry.com to use

3:30 am

Haz1558

This is where we all start to puzzle what that favourite word might be....

3:31 am

Atalante

cr6/27 :) perfect arty word

3:31 am

balker

fa4?

3:31 am

ExWren

Fmitch, my email address is in my profile

3:32 am

Haz1558

I'm glad it's not the poisonous cu6/24!

3:32 am

ilandrah

bum bugle balker

3:33 am

Atalante

he he! actually, that's a cool word too! I like the way that one sounds. but the ca6 introduced me to the concept of colour as a very small child, and colour has driven my life ever since

3:37 am

Haz1558

Got it!

3:38 am

Atalante

:)

3:38 am

MelRinaLVN

OMG!!! I actually finished one!! first one ever!!!!

3:39 am

Atalante

woohoo! congrats!

3:39 am

Haz1558

Well done! The first of many.

3:40 am

sprite

WTG Mel!
Back for the rest of the babble.

3:40 am

ruthy

wtg melrinalvn

3:40 am

Atalante

and there's a *lovely* e7 word

3:41 am

MelRinaLVN

thank you thank you.....now to get back to work!! I am sooo far behind!!

3:41 am

Haz1558

Well, must depart for a while - I'll be back later.

3:46 am

Atalante

I keep wanting to have cautery

3:47 am

pthomp

and crafter

3:47 am

sprite

I want 'iterant' too.

3:48 am

pthomp

and if fa4/7 works , why not fa**er

3:49 am

sprite

I wondered about that too. I know some of them.

3:50 am

Atalante

-er words are almost as random as re- words

3:50 am

Boysaway

Does the d8 derive from the d6/24?

3:51 am

sprite

Don't have either of them yet, sry.

3:52 am

Atalante

I cant see how it would ... but I might well be missing some sneaky thing

3:53 am

Boysaway

Got it, and yes, it does!

3:53 am

SunnFlower

morning all, Atalante the di8 is a superlative of the di6

3:54 am

Atalante

oh yes. oops!

3:54 am

sprite

A superlative without an S? I am soooo lost on this one.

3:56 am

Atalante

its not superlative, its a "more di6" thing. can you tell my knowledge of grammar words goes early in the morning? superlative would be "most di6" wouldn't it?

3:56 am

SunnFlower

a superlative is an adjective, like the ta7 is to the ta5

3:56 am

Atalante

but I'm going off French there more than English LOL

3:57 am

sprite

Isn't that a comperative then? See, I am getting nowhere today.

3:57 am

Boysaway

It is a superlative if you are only comparing two things

3:57 am

sprite

now I want 'dryout' and 'dryouter' to be words.

3:58 am

Atalante

you've got the right form for the two words there, sprite. just find something more likely than dryout!

3:58 am

sprite

And why can Re6/21 not become Re6-ier?

3:59 am

SunnFlower

can't it be most or more and can't it be 3 things ie. y, ier , iest?

4:02 am

SunnFlower

You can have anything you want sprite, make up a dictionary and we can use that for babble , could be fun and you could leave the k out of the alphabet as well

4:02 am

sprite

Oh, wouldn't that be great! :D

4:03 am

sprite

Also it puzzles me how often we have the T-O-X combination without any poisonous possibilities.

4:04 am

Atalante

because you really need TOXI

4:06 am

sprite

Yes, that is what is so strange, that there is hardly ever an i in that neighbourhood. And now with that C so close, it catches the eye.

4:07 am

Atalante

one day tetrodotoxin is going to be in the grid!

4:07 am

sha

morning all happy easter

4:07 am

sprite

Oh yes, that would be so nce :)

Have a great day, all of you!

4:19 am

Atalante

tr7/44? hmmm that must have some interesting letters in

4:30 am

sha

tr-7-44 the act of being absent without permission

4:32 am

bex777

Eva

Good morning all. Happy Easter and Pesach to everyone.

All the food talk this morning has made me ravenous. Thoughts of breakfast out.

Anyway, the ta7 has got me stumped. Any hints?

6:11 am

Atalante

hi eva - think later for the ta7

6:12 am

Eva

Thanks Atalante! That did it. Why couldn't I see that before?

6:12 am

Atalante

its too obvious ;) obvious words are always invisible

6:14 am

Eva

6:16 am

Atalante

it comes from the top right A, can tell you that much

6:18 am

bex777

atlante please can i have an easier clue for the ta 7 i didnt understand the other one!?! :)

6:18 am

Eva

some people earlier had it and said it was bow shaped, starting with that a, but I can't , for the life of me, see it.

6:18 am

Jera

Good morning, everyone! Happy Easter!

6:18 am

caitlyn

ar7 Noah built one + when you dislike something you ha it drop the h

6:19 am

Atalante

the ta7 means later ... work from the ta5/16

6:20 am

Atalante

6:21 am

Eva

6:21 am

bex777

6:24 am

bex777

6:24 am

Eva

still missing one 7. I have:

ar7/36
ci7/32
er7/40
ta 7/32
ta7/40
tr7/44

What's missing please?

6:24 am

bex777

or are they the a?

6:25 am

Eva

bex-the ta5 word is a synonym for being late. Then make it more so. Rhymes with the Ha-___ Boys.

6:25 am

cdn_in_va

clues for either of the y4,7?

6:26 am

movieman

Eva - howsabout chucking a few cluez moviemanwards for those 7's you already have.......

Merp has begun his dying of hunger routine, so I'll have to leave soon.

6:27 am

Babbler

Happy Easter, everyone : )

6:28 am

ARB

un 7/36

6:29 am

bex777

movieman the tr 7= if u dont go to school but your meant to it could be classed as ________

6:30 am

ARB

yu 4/7 -- Chinese money
yu 4/7 -- Asian tent

6:30 am

Eva

sure thing:

ar7/36-Atalante just gave clue

ci7/32-think cloud beginning + detest minus the "h" ending

er7/40 - think doing an er____(shopping, picking up the laundry,etc)but change the last consonant and add and ending

ta 7/32-both ta's have the same root, the ta5 we've been discussing re lateness

ta7/40
tr7/44 - missing school a lot

6:30 am

Atalante

a clue for the ta7/40? please?

6:31 am

Eva

the second ta7 ends in the opp of off.

6:31 am

ARB

yu 5/16 is the previous yu 4/7 with a vowel at the end

6:32 am

Eva

ARB_-boker tov. Could you spare a third letter clue for that un?

6:32 am

Atalante

thanks Eva :)

6:32 am

Atalante

eva - think the most unlikely c5 to add to the un, and add it!

6:33 am

ARB

Boker or -- un + a word for a large wooden box

6:33 am

movieman

eva - still can't get that er7.....

6:33 am

Eva

thanks guys! Can now go and feed the beast. Back soon.

6:33 am

bex777

me either!

6:34 am

Atalante

er7 - as Era said, rhyme it with the tr7

6:34 am

ARB

Eva -- where in Vermont do you live? We have a daughter,son-in-law and granddaughter in Burlington. Doctor son-in-law is doing a residency at Fletcher Allen

6:34 am

caitlyn

This cooking Easter lunch is interfering with my babble time !!!

6:34 am

Eva

another word for money is cur_____. Rhymes with that. Begins with "to e__ is human".

6:36 am

movieman

Just need that ta7/40......

Further cluez plz....

6:36 am

Jera

Caitlyn, I have a good excuse, waiting for my husband to go to the store... not that we wait til the last minute or anything...

6:36 am

Eva

ARB_neat. I'm only 45 minutes from them. Fletcher Allen is our "big" hospital. If you want to look on the map, I'm in Adamant, a teeny town near Montpelier. I go into Burlington about once a week. Where are you in Israel?

6:36 am

Atalante

sounds like it should be a sub-atomic particle

6:37 am

caitlyn

ta7/40 ta5/16 + opposite of off

6:37 am

GreyWoulf

ta7/40 is a particle which travels slower than the speed of light -- as opposed to a tachyob which travels faster that the speed of light :)

Hi all -- Happy Easter -- will chat more in a bit -- feeding SEb :)

6:38 am

movieman

Thanx all for those cluez.....

Now, the 8 would be useful.....

6:38 am

Eva

Wolf-does Seb get chocolate formula today?

6:38 am

amandacath

Hi all! Have been lurking, but had to comment on that ta7/40 - what on earth is that? Maybe what Wayne & Garth say when they're late...?

6:38 am

GreyWoulf

oops, tachyON, not ob :D

6:38 am

Atalante

di8 - add 2 letters to your di6

6:39 am

Eva

the 8 is a common word. The ending is one of those more so things.

6:40 am

movieman

Atalante - what's the di6.......

6:40 am

ARB

Eva - We live in the middle of Tel Aviv, a block from the city hall (and the large square in front of it) and we walk to everything -- beach, opera, theaters, concerts. Not Central Park West, but very urban!

6:40 am

caitlyn

Hi amandacath and greyW hey jera just give him chocolate and wine

6:40 am

Eva

movie-if you were lost and asked me how to get somewhere I would di____ you.

6:41 am

Jera

6:41 am

Atalante

di6 - common word, NSEW are the cardinal di****ions

6:42 am

movieman

Thanx, got 'em.....

6:42 am

Eva

ARB- have spent quite a bit of time in Israel, but mainly Jerusalem and Haifa. Have a hard time with big cities-ergo my present whereabouts. Any time you want anything delivered to your kids just let me know.

6:42 am

GreyWoulf

7:10 am

movieman

Woulfie - ther's a cr10 that uses the x......

Whoops, that's given the game away........

7:10 am

Kallia

x used in at least one word Grey

7:10 am

amandacath

I've found 2 so far where the x is used, GW

7:11 am

movieman

Whoops, again!!!!!!!!

That should be cr11......

7:11 am

GreyWoulf

Good, then it isn't a waste -- I think it is a waste to have one of the lesser used letters in the grid, unless it is used in at least one word :)

I'm just weird that way ;D

7:14 am

periwinkle

time for a break, are the supermarkets open today?

7:14 am

GreyWoulf

lol, movieman, but it's Easter, not April Fools today ;)

7:15 am

GreyWoulf

I am not sure, peri -- I think maybe until around 2 -- the safest bet would be to call the store to confirm

7:21 am

movieman

macuser

8:41 am

Sherylr1961

8:41 am

8:55 am

hurshy

8:56 am

musicmom

Not sure if it is the first but use the first four letters for the medical term for rear end + 1 vowel.

8:56 am

Merk

I have that one already. It has to be earlier than REF

8:57 am

GreyWoulf

Happy Easter to all!! Family is waking so now I get to do the breakfast thing -- see you all later!!

musicmom

Re5/12 is actually the plural of the anal canal.

8:58 am

macuser

8:58 am

9:15 am

musicmom

That's a good riddle Hurshy. I'll have to ponder it. Will also share with Sarah and Greg.

9:16 am

hurshy

i fear that "no" is what was intended - that someone just wanted to torture people... :( but with all these fine babble minds at work, who knows?

9:17 am

musicmom

No is a good answer, but there might be another one...

9:18 am

hurshy

i hope so!! :)

9:21 am

Merk

UN 7/36 please?

9:37 am

hurshy

9:37 am

musicmom

Hurshy i looked at the riddle,and so far no answer ,are you setting a time limit on it ,cause its cooking time for me ,so i thought after, i could spend some time on it . happy Easter to all Babblers

9:51 am

hurshy

no time limit, my sister just wants a better answer than the ones that have been suggested. we don't feel satisfied with those solutions - but we don't have a better one!

9:52 am

ARB

ta 7/40 first half of word is to be late and the second halff is the opposite of off

9:52 am

hurshy

as a math teacher, i object to that clue, ARB :)

9:52 am

macuser

I need help with my last word... it's a fr??? I have:
fr5/18

hurshy

fr 5/16 french for brother

9:54 am

macuser

Got it hursh! Thanks!! :)

9:55 am

hurshy

up for some guess-what-hurshy-is-missing? it's a little early, but...

9:55 am

ARB

Hurshy -- you're right, of course -- if I knew what the word meant I would have given a definition instead of playing with sections of the word

9:55 am

macuser

would love to hurshy :)

9:55 am

Babbler

I like your riddle, hursh. Just posted my guess.

Happy Easter, everybody : )

9:55 am

musicmom

I can try Hurshy.

9:56 am

hurshy

oh i don't object to the sectioning of words - only calling 5/7 and 2/7 halves :)

9:56 am

hurshy

well, i need one more d

9:56 am

macuser

brb hurshy - want to check out your riddle :)

9:57 am

musicmom

8 - di words (one of them is an 8)
3 - dr words

9:57 am

hurshy

yeah, babbler, we thought of air or gas... also light, science, tv, hollywood, fame, vanity... :)

9:57 am

hurshy

aha, i don't have the 8

9:58 am

hurshy

silly me! got it.

9:58 am

ARB

It's creative partitioning -- remember which part of the word I live in !!!!

9:58 am

macuser

nice riddle hurshy... I'll have to ponder that a bit :)

9:59 am

hurshy

alrighty, i also need one more f, which apparently is NOT an fr

10:00 am

macuser

fa5/22?

10:00 am

musicmom

four fa and four fe words.

10:00 am

ARB

Do you have the disagreeable fa?

10:00 am

GingerUK

Hi Everyone, how obsure are the words today?

10:01 am

hurshy

five points to mac!

10:01 am

macuser

Yay me, lol

10:01 am

musicmom

This is a very friendly grid Ginger.

10:01 am

hurshy

(mm, the game is more to GUESS what i would miss - if you just tell me how many of each right off the bat, then i might as well get the list. but thank you! :) )

10:02 am

hurshy

and yes ARB, i did have the disagreeable one :)

10:02 am

musicmom

sorry :-(( I'm working backwards so I don't have any of those yet. I'm lame and went to the list right off today.

10:02 am

hurshy

you get five points when you guess correctly. more if it is my very last word.

10:03 am

hurshy

it's ok mm, i just thought i might as well explain the game. :)

10:03 am

musicmom

Absolutely - knowing the rules help.

10:03 am

hurshy

missing one N as well.

10:03 am

ARB

I tend to ignore it -- that's why I asked

10:03 am

macuser

and sometimes, brownies :) made from scratch!

10:04 am

hurshy

oh yes, brownies for a prize if you perform especially well on a given day :)

10:04 am

ARB

n 6/24 -- far northern Europe

10:04 am

hurshy

5 points for ARB, fish for me!

10:05 am

ARB

A Passover brownie will do.

10:05 am

hurshy

two a's, one from each box

10:05 am

hurshy

how does a passover brownie differ from a regular brownie?

10:06 am

jean1953

right off to finish cooking the turkey bye everyone :)

10:06 am

macuser

ar7/36?

10:07 am

hurshy

5 points to mac! now i just gotta find it.

10:07 am

ARB

Not made with regular flour -- can't have baking soda or baking popwder -- Passover is all about avoiding leavened bread and anything associated with bread and rising dough. Therefore Passover brownies are made from finely ground matza crumbs and are to be avoided for 51 weeks of the year.

10:08 am

hurshy

hmm... then, ARB, perhaps you'd rather have a nice apple.

10:08 am

ARB

Healthy and keeps the doctors away, too

10:08 am

hurshy

is it related to the 6/24?

10:08 am

GingerUK

sounds delicious ARB :p I wish we had proper smilies on here sometimes!

10:09 am

macuser

ARB - is it matza or matzah? Whichever it is... I love it

10:10 am

macuser

No hurshy - I got it from an earlier clue - it's a word I'm not familiar with

Jamaca

can anyone help me with ht ro 4,10 please?

10:11 am

hurshy

golly gee, then i guess i will need a clue

mode of transport??? pondering that too...

10:11 am

ARB

It's a Hebrew word -- so you're writing a foreign word as you hear it in English. Adding the h at the end should maks you pout the emphasis on the last syllable, which is the proper Hebrew way to pronounce the word.

10:11 am

musicmom

thick mixture of butter and flour used for stews.

10:11 am

hurshy

ro 4/10 when cooking, to make many sauces, you start with a ro4/10

10:12 am

ARB

ar 7/36 starts with a curve and then sounds something like very very correct

10:12 am

Jamaca

got it thank you all

11:26 am

GingerUK

Thanks haz but I don't have the ri either LOL

11:26 am

Haz1558

11:55 am

faeriekae

Hi Mab - No kidding - I feel like a new person. I actually slept last night. Where before it would wake up feeling like I was smothering. But Babbler helped me or I would still be thinking I was going crazy or just trying to live with her.

11:56 am

GingerUK

ci7/32 please?

11:56 am

renfield

ish - r 4 uses the x

11:58 am

11:59 am

ExWren

I only started this grid about an hour ago, and was going great guns, until I hit the re's!
Did I ever tell you I hate the re's? I think I might have mentioned it before!

11:59 am

Haz1558

ci7/32 - resembles words that have been in the grid recently concerning cutting, and the types of edges on knives.

11:59 am

faeriekae

Ginger - Thank you - I'm great...and no one can take that away from me. Happy Easter :)

Happy Easter everyone. I am stuck on the T letter in the bottom row. Any clues? HELP, I'm new, but trying. Geneva

12:04 pm

Haz1558

There's a ty 4/6 meaning apprentice

12:05 pm

mab

rumple, think of a dictator. I think that's the only word from that t.

12:05 pm

faeriekae

Rumple - Wish I could help but I don't have it yet but Happy Easter to you and Welcome to the madness :)

12:05 pm

GingerUK

finally got it Haz... I knew the word you meant but kept the 2nd of one of the letters!!!

12:05 pm

Atalante

rumple - car**** network

12:06 pm

mo

an absolute ruler maybe the one you are looking for rumple

12:06 pm

mab

no, there are two from that t, but I have only one.

12:06 pm

renfield

rumple - you mean like the ty's? there's a ty who is a dictator type person

12:06 pm

Haz1558

And ty6/24 is a dictator

12:07 pm

Haz1558

ty4/6 - ends in a vowel, means an apprentice - sometimes spelt with a ti.

12:09 pm

mab

The t on the bottom right is short for an animated story, as in the movies or a comic book.

12:11 pm

rumplestiltskin

mo & atalante, thanks, I have those 2. I need one more t from the lower left corner. GA

My daughter and son-in-law were planning to move to Ketura a few years ago, but he decided to become a doctor after being a medic for 6 months in the army. They are now in Vermont where he's ending his internship and beginnng his residency.

12:22 pm

I'm way down south, 40 km before Eilat.
Just had the most amazing down pour of rain. To think that yesterday our pool opened!!

ARB - this is a really embarrassing question because you'll probably roll your eyes and think I'm a dumb westerner - but I would *love* to visit Tel Aviv, I've heard so many things about it (and I'd love to visist some friends in Beirut but that's a different matter) but is it safe now? My husband doesn't like visiting places in the Middle East ... he thinks he's going to be blown up the second he steps foot off the plane ...

12:27 pm

Ish: do you know that there is another two-letter list at Angelsongs Babble Paee and Lickety's clues? (links at right)

Does anyone know if there are any words missing from Lickietys clue list today?

12:32 pm

Atalante- shouldn't let TV reports put you off. Nowhere is 100% safe anymore (including the US). If you think too much about it you'd never leave your couch.
Israel is a great place for a holiday.

Ishult - you are 100% correct there. If you want to travel, do it. I feel like if it is my time to leave this earth it is my time. I fly every couple of months and I've never been afraid. Not to Israel of course but given the chance I'd be there in a heart beat.

12:35 pm

Atalante

oh I know! I've been to my fair share of places one probably shouldn't go to if you're worried about safety. My husband stresses though! I would love to have a huge holiday in the Middle-east - Israel and Jordan and I'd love to go into Palestine as well. I'd love to go to Iraq as well, but I'm not entirely sure that'sa good idea at the moment!!!!

er6 an er6 knave
er7 the state the knave is in

Haz1558

er6 - means 'wandering' in French and in English it means a misguided person.
er7 - is the noun relating to it. If you have the school avoiding tr6 and tr7 (the avoiding of school) then the er 7 has the same ending

di 5/14 beginning of what you do to your secretary
cu6's - a poison
change last letter of poison
what you do if you run a museum

3:34 pm

Haz1558

The last cu6/24 is the easiest to find, being a clergyman (of lowly position). The first one, differing in the second to last letter, is a poison, and the second one differs in the last vowel used.

3:34 pm

a person plying with death

Mikey and harpjane, thanks, don't know why I didn't see those i words myself. harp I am allergic to anything that has to do with cleaning . I cleaned the bedroom last week only because I could write my name in the dust on the bureau 8-)

4:09 pm

periwinkle

Mikey, what time is it where you are? It is 5 pm Sun here

4:10 pm

MikeyInBerlin

ta7/32 and ta7/40?

4:13 pm

Dippnall

ta 7/32 - later

4:14 pm

Haz1558

ta 7/32 - is a comparative adjective meaning being more delayed. ta7/40 uses the late or delayed adjective itself, and puts a preposition on the end

4:14 pm

MikeyInBerlin

harpjane; 'ta7,40' = same as word above it, only 'later.....on'

4:15 pm

periwinkle

na5/12

4:15 pm

Haz1558

The ur 5/12 words mirror exactly the construction of the corresponding cu6/24 words - clues were given earlier on.

4:15 pm

MikeyInBerlin

actually, maybe that wasn't cryptic enough; but i really couldn't think how to give a clue for that :-/

4:16 pm

Haz1558

na5/12 - add the first letters of President Nixon's name.

4:16 pm

periwinkle

thanks Haz

4:17 pm

MikeyInBerlin

Michele, 'na5,12' has the same first 3 letters as the preceding word, plus a descriptive type of suffix

4:17 pm

harpjane

thanks. ta7/40 sound like something from Wayne's World....

4:18 pm

periwinkle

Mikey, please call me periwinkle here

4:18 pm

harpjane

tr6/27, not the fishy one?

4:18 pm

MikeyInBerlin

so sorry, periwinkle :-/

4:20 pm

Haz1558

tr6/27 - is made up of two words which could mean to roadtest a vehicle, or put a player in a new position.

4:23 pm

harpjane

thanks. one last t and I'm taking a break!
the very first ta5/10?

4:23 pm

cdn_in_va

first tr 5,10?

4:24 pm

Haz1558

ta5/10 - looks like a Spanish or Italian word for much. First three letters - to bronze in sun, then preposition ending.

4:24 pm

harpjane

tr5/10, someone who attempts

4:25 pm

Haz1558

The first tr5/10 - one who attempts

4:25 pm

periwinkle

4:26 pm

harpjane

thanks for the clues. break time!

4:26 pm

Haz1558

no4/4 is an anagram of French for black. If someone else was having difficulty in finding the word, they could also say this.

4:26 pm

aknitter

peri is it the no 4/4 -- seaweed?

4:27 pm

periwinkle

Haz, thanks, I know that word, it is in lots of puzzles, means some type of seaweed used sushi.

6:34 pm

Jera

My advice to newies... just let your eyes scan over the grid & words will come out... your brain naturally making order from the jumble... finding some words that way will be fun & encouraging... then as you get more practice, you can get into the clues & making finishing the puzzle your goal

6:34 pm

I can't help yet with that word

Why, thank you, Mom.
I'm a published poet,
Not that you would always know it,
given the doggerel I am writing now;
hardly poetry with a Wow!

Easter Sunday I don't imagine you have had a break
Did you survive the funeral and wedding?
Maybe it is time to hit the bedding.

Sounds fun. Your a better woman than me, don't think I could pull off two days of this. So much cooking! I made your Bailey's cheesecake from the recipe on Bab Anon. They loved it!!

9:24 pm

Jacula

'Bye, Scatty. Your keyboard needs cleaning, by the sound of it. Don't forget to do a diagram of the keys BEFORE you pull them all off to clean it.

9:24 pm

bunnyvicious

Bye Scatty

9:25 pm

Jacula

Bunny - Did you? That's nice to hear! It went down well with Haz's guests, too.

Have you tried the cappuccino on yet?

9:26 pm

bunnyvicious

No, I didn't see that one, but I'll definately try it! I have a cappacino cake I make that I love! We're having a potluck next weekend, it'll be something new to try.

9:26 pm

Jacula

Bunny - I sometimes get a bit worried when I don't hear anything back on my recipe thread. I do try out all my recipes (most of which are either inventions of my own or recipes I have adapted to suit our tastes). It's so nice to hear when people have enjoyed one.

9:28 pm

bunnyvicious

I probably have a few I need to stick on there, but I'm lousy at giving instructions, half the time I don't even measure, I just pour. Hard to write that down, lol.
I need to take the time and go through the other recipies, feels like I'm making the same meals over and over.

9:29 pm

Jacula

Mind you, having said that, personal tastes differ. I did the beefburgers (see recipe on thread) last week and changed the tabasco sauce to BBQ sauce. I didn't like it. I thought tomato ketchup would have tasted better. However, son and O/H thought they were perfect.

9:29 pm

scatty

just changed the keyboard, have plugged an old one in now, i knew i had kept it for a reason

9:30 pm

Jacula

Scatty - we keep keyboards, too. LOL.

9:31 pm

scatty

where do i find the recipes then

9:31 pm

Jacula

Bunny - next time you're making your fave meals make sure you pour into the measuring pan of your scales (or cup measures).

9:31 pm

bunnyvicious

There is a thread on Bab Anon.

9:32 pm

Jacula

Scatty - On BabAnon, Other Interests thread.

9:32 pm

helenkeller

omg - pleeeeeease stop talking about food - i am still so full from dinner that it hurts even thinking about it --- too much good food, too little will power :)

9:32 pm

Jacula

Helen - Dare we ask what you ate?

9:33 pm

bunnyvicious

I will, I have two cakes I definately have to put up there. I end up making three of each every holiday.
I need to find a good recipie for some easy divinity, i've tried afew from other sites and didn't like the way they tasted.

9:33 pm

Jacula

...And as for 'will' power, I still don't think they should call it that. It is most definately called having no 'won't' power!

9:34 pm

bunnyvicious

Helen, no more food filled holidays til Thanksgiving!! Eat up!!

9:35 pm

Jacula

'Easy divinity'? You've lost me there, Bunny. What do you mean? What kind of cake are you looking for?

9:35 pm

helenkeller

lol - more like what didn't i eat - there was the obligatory ham & pineapples, & also turkey & roast beef, then sweet potatoes, baked potatoes & carrots & onions with the roast, potato salad, cole slaw, cauliflower in cheese & butter, creamed corn, salad, puerto rican rice, broccoli, biscuits, & i'm sure i'm forgetting more

9:36 pm

helenkeller

lol jac --- won't power -- i just love that!

9:36 pm

Jacula

Helen - you still haven't told us what you DID eat.

9:37 pm

helenkeller

ps - for dessert .... french silk pie, assorted eli's cheesecakes, ice cream, cream puffs, poppy seed cake (my favorite) & banana creme pie

9:37 pm

bunnyvicious

I'm not looking for a cake, looking for divinity. The only divinity recipie I have has to cook for an hour. I know there is a recipie for something a little easier to make out there somewhere.

9:38 pm

Jacula

Bunny - being an 'ignorant' Brit., I have no idea what a divinity recipe is... please elucidate.

9:38 pm

helenkeller

lol jac - no i did eat some of everything -- that's why i'm so stuffed, but bunny's right, nothing like this coming again for a long time, so no guilt, just a very full belly

9:39 pm

Jacula

Helen, Bunny - are you Jewish girls?

9:39 pm

bunnyvicious

Sorry, it's a fluffy white candy with chopped nuts in it. It's really rich but a real pain in the rear to make!

9:39 pm

bunnyvicious

I'm not.

9:39 pm

jac - i believe divinity is a southern thing - very creamy right? with pineapple?

9:39 pm

rseidemann

9:44 pm

ah jac, but don't forget that catholics also have been observing lent & fasting ( or more modernly, foregoing) for 40 days - but alas, no religiocity excuse for me - pure gluttony instead :)

9:44 pm

bunnyvicious

And thank you mama bear, that one looks alittle less complex than the one I have. I'll whip out a batch tomorrow and see how it tastes.

9:44 pm

Heavenly Divinity

2 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 large egg whites
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup chopped pecans, toasted
Garnish: toasted pecan halves

9:45 pm

mamabear

Cook first 4 ingredients in a heavy 2-quart saucepan over low heat until sugar dissolves and a candy thermometer registers 248*F (120*C), about 15 minutes. Remove syrup mixture from heat.
Beat egg whites at high speed with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Pour half of hot syrup in a thin stream over egg whites, beating constantly at high speed, about 5 minutes.
Cook remaining half of syrup over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until a candy thermometer registers 272*F (130*C), about 4 to 5 minutes. Slowly pour hot syrup and vanilla extract over egg white mixture, beating constantly at high speed until mixture holds its shape (about 6 to 8 minutes). Stir in 1 cup chopped pecans.
Drop mixture quickly by rounded teaspoonfuls onto lightly greased wax paper. Garnish, if desired. Cool.
Makes 4 dozen (1 3/4 pounds).

Hi Jac!!!!!
Posted the recipe in case anyone else was curious!

9:46 pm

Jacula

Mama - please post it on my recipes thread in BabAnon.

Basically then, as far as I can see, it is a meringue with pecan nuts in it?

9:46 pm

rseidemann

If anyone wants a clue for a fifty point word just tell me.

9:47 pm

Jacula

Or does it come out more like a chewy noughat?

9:47 pm

helenkeller

oh great - now they moved from just talking about food to the actual dissection and subsequent recipe posting

9:48 pm

bunnyvicious

LOL Jac, yeah, I guess so. But it tastes so much batter. I hate meringue, reminds me of cow slobber.

di8/50 is NOT the person that controls the film action. It is the as the crow flew path to somewhere. The film person has the round vowel before the last letter.

9:54 pm

Jacula

LA - er7/40 - the state of being wrong.

9:54 pm

Ugghh, I better get. Candy filled children are resisting sleep.

sorry for being so abrupt. It's been a very frustrating babble day-having to reload over and over again and never loading completely, so I'm using this small window of opportunity while it presents. But I've always wondered what Divinity was...will definitely try the recipe!

10:03 pm

Helen - see you later.

Hetty - Yes, indeed! Now, let's talk about my aunt and uncle who have been in Canada for about 35 years at least now and can't remember that the back of a British car is the boot, not the trunk, and that a thing you turn on to get water out of it is a tap, not a faucet.
LOL. Differences! One thing I think the internet has done for the world is to get people talking, those who might never have met otherwise; ordinary people rather than politcians. Misunderstandings and fights DO occur, for sure, but, in the end, I think the WWW may be the way to a global understanding.

10:04 pm

Freckle

There's three of them and I'm misssin 1

10:04 pm

Eva

now everything is showing up in tripllicate and I dont dare reload because I might end up in the Twilight Zone again.

Merk

CR one is a poison

10:05 pm

rseidemann

l.o.l

10:05 pm

Eva

tr5/10-not the person who makes an attempt?

10:05 pm

Merk

I'm finished! Bells and whistles. How I wish I'd finish earlier for once.

10:06 pm

Jacula

Yesterday we had arsenic, today we have 2 forms of vine poison to tip arrows with.

10:08 pm

LeslieAnn

10:08 pm

Merk

Change the last letter of the poison to a different vowel.

10:09 pm

Eva

thanks Merk, but that's a tr5/12-I need the other tr5/10

10:09 pm

Jacula

Freckle - I think it's a cu6 word you're seeking. If you have the 2nd vowel ending to it then change it to the 3rd vowel. Vice versa otherwise.

10:09 pm

cindasu

10:10 pm

LeslieAnn

merk gave the clue at 10:07, eva

10:10 pm

O Jac, my love, I do agree. I was born and educated a Brit, and have been Canadian a mere 48 years.One of my favourite (NB not favorite, but that too) stories is of the British vet who arrived (like us) in Saskatchewan and was most aggrieved when a garage mechanic asked him to open the hood. "That's not a hood, " he angrily declared, "it's a bonnet. A hood is what you put on your head!"

10:10 pm

Merk

There are two TR 5/12
The first is the TR + what is in your freezer
The second is fish TR---

10:10 pm

If you take a stab at it, an attempt, you are a tr---

10:13 pm

Jacula

Hetty - How right you are! I loved your story, too. I get annoyed at breaches of my beloved language at times, and then I think, 'the reason this IS the most popular and long lived language is because it grows and changes'.

10:13 pm

LeslieAnn

ar 6/24 - if you have high cholesterol, these are clogged

10:13 pm

LeslieAnn

Eva

Too frustrating to work with this computer psychosis. Only 28 left, but time to go to sleep. maybe it will fix itself overnight, although I've been having trouble for a couple of days now. Only with babble-not with any other internet sites. Anyone else having problems?

10:14 pm

Freckle

I need to have a dramatic finsh:):/ ----- one left!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!

rseidemann

10:15 pm

LeslieAnn

great clue on the ru merk!

10:18 pm

Eva

jac- I use firefox. And as you probably remember, I have the computer literacy of a kumquat. Have no idea how to do what you just suggested. But if that were a problem, wouldn't it screw up more than Babble? And it isn't.

10:19 pm

Merk

The few times I've had problems, I had to shut down my computer and restart it. It's the pits to do!

10:19 pm

rseidemann

grey wolf, i hav ou 5, that is it

10:19 pm

Jacula

Freckle - the fe6 - iron or cheap cassette tape one - fr + Er** Morecambe fro Morecambe & Wise, or ER*c Syke, partner of Hattie Jacques, or Er** Idle from Monty Python.

10:19 pm

Eva

I've had problems before, but never anything this bad....having it hang up in "loading" forever and ever. And then still be incomplete - empty icons, etc.

10:19 pm

The OU 5 are annagrams

10:20 pm

msmsctchr

10:20 pm

Yeah, having too many windows open can really slow things down.

10:20 pm

Eva

nope-no other programs open

10:21 pm

LeslieAnn

ms, i clued ar 6 at 10:13

10:21 pm

Merk

The final AR is a blood vessel.

10:21 pm

Jacula

Eva - go to the 6th tab from the left at the top of your monitor, 'Tools'. Then go into 'Options' and then click on 'Clear All'. It might help.

10:21 pm

Thank you, Une -- A bit blatant perhaps, but my headache prevents me from wrapping my mind around the more cryptic clues :)

('Sides you were the only one to clue it ;D )

10:40 pm

Jacula

Carla - last tr6/27 is a silly compund word - if you go for an interview for a sports team they may put you on the field for a tr* ***.

Failing that, if you want to buy a car, for instance, you may want to do a test run to tr* it *** before you buy.

erm, it's got some funky words, mama, i don't know if i could finish in an hour

10:59 pm

10:59 pm

Jacula

Stid - It's 155 words and they are not so easy to find until your eyes get acclimatised to the grid. However, I think it's worth starting.

11:00 pm

scatty

well i'm off to bed, i was going to give some clues but jacula has been taking her vitamins and has a nickname," speedy" tonight, nighty night everyone, i'm going this time, promise

11:05 pm

rseidemann

11:05 pm

Jacula

Rseid - LA is correct. And with that, I am off till the next grid. Good luck.

Jacula

Just popped back for a minute from another forum. Multiple identities, on here, not where I was, annoy me.

Goodnight all.

11:15 pm

rseidemann

yes, but for those with partly developed brains they wern't too much help.

11:16 pm

LeslieAnn

here's what they mean: af 5/16 means a word with 5 letters, that gives you 16 points, that starts with af. so if you want a specific clue, you can ask that way (that one is opposite of before)

11:17 pm

stidmama

good night jacula -- happy Easter!
