evanadine, LOVE your icon and bio today! my acting teacher used to quote Wright all the time - "take care of the transitions, and the lines will take care of themselves." pretty b*tching life philosophy as well!

9:46 am

EvaNadine

BF: zucchini cups, super-easy.

9:47 am

EvaNadine

cut up a zucchini into 1.5 inch chunks. use a spoon to scoop out the inside of each chunk to make a "cup"
fill each cup with a mixture of feta + chopped roasted red peppers (which you can buy, pre-roasted in a jar)
stick them on a tray + pop them in the oven for just a few minutes before serving.

9:48 am

EvaNadine

i made those for my family once + everyone was just flabbergasted, since im not known for cooking!

9:51 am

phaeton

Eva...do you half the zucchini first?

9:52 am

EvaNadine

nope. just cut it into 1.5-inch thick slices. when you scoop out the insides, just be careful to leave a little at the bottom.

9:52 am

phaeton

ok thanks

9:53 am

EvaNadine

technically, you should stick them under the broiler, but since i was SUPER cooking-illiterate, i stuck them in a toaster oven for a few minutes. still works the same, since the idea is to melt the feta just a bit. :)

9:53 am

flosey

back again,

9:54 am

phaeton

well, don't have a broiler or a toaster oven

9:54 am

EvaNadine

for the same occasion, i also made deep-fried avocado spears and something else, i dont recall.
deep-frying avocado isnt very easy, since it is so soft!

9:54 am

EvaNadine

phae -- you can just shove them in the oven for a few minutes. should be just as good.

9:55 am

hootowl

The oven should have a broil setting. Just don't put them too close or they'll burn.

9:55 am

EvaNadine

welcome back, flosey :)

9:56 am

jan

EvaNadine, that sounds like what Cajuns call pirogues--"boats" made out of hollowed zuchini or eggplant stuffed with cheese, or shrimp or crawfish stuffing and then broiled or baked. Mmmmm...

9:56 am

flosey

ty Eva, Beautiful icon and story

9:57 am

hootowl

I'm not sure I'd even cook them. Depends on how distinct the taste of the zucchini is. If you use cucumber's no cooking needed.

9:57 am

EvaNadine

thanks flosey. i always thought it was a gorgeous house, even though ive never been there.

9:57 am

phaeton

i have a convection/microwave...nuking ok?

9:57 am

EvaNadine

hoot -- i bet they would be yummy with raw cucumber!

jan, never heard of that, but now i want some! hehe

9:58 am

EvaNadine

phae -- you may wanna try hoots idea of just using a cucumber + not cooking at all. sounds yummy to me!

9:58 am

phaeton

yea, will have to try that!

9:59 am

EvaNadine

*makes mental note to try that, herself*

9:59 am

10:02 am

EvaNadine

i have CH6/42...

10:02 am

jan

Seems like there used to be lots of recipes for canapes years ago--little nibbles for "cocktail parties" back when they were such things. You can hollow out cukes and cheery tomatoes and fill the depression with hummus or artichoke dip or whatever, top with a tiny bit of olive or parlsey or sundried tomatoes. So 1950's...

10:03 am

jan

Or even cherry tomatoes if you haven't got any cheery ones.

10:03 am

car.eeyore

One of my favorite words! CH 6/42!

10:03 am

EvaNadine

anything that can be served on a toothpick is so very 1950s...hehe

1:01 pm

car.eeyore

Hey!

1:01 pm

jimmel

hi, west...you are so right about the root words on this one

1:02 pm

car.eeyore

I'm down to 50...should be taking a nap while I have the chance...but must babble!

1:02 pm

westford

priorities car.e lol

1:03 pm

jimmel

Babble is a good substitute for sleep, car...LOL

1:03 pm

stidmama

hello friends, having a mini panic attack, not sure why. Going to babble and see if it gets better.

1:03 pm

car.eeyore

I only had 3 hours last night and the kids are only out for a little while...ugh.

1:03 pm

car.eeyore

Stid....need to vent...I will listen...

1:04 pm

AsGreen

I got all the 8s! :)

1:04 pm

westford

hi stid come on it the water's fine

1:04 pm

AsGreen

hi stiddy!

1:04 pm

jimmel

I remember those days, car.e...you're right...you should probably nap while you can

1:04 pm

stidmama

no venting needed, just feeling peculiar for some reason. oh well. (((hugs all))) I am here, and this is a safe place.

1:04 pm

stidmama

go AS go!

1:04 pm

AsGreen

car, how old are the kids?

1:04 pm

stidmama

car, sleep might just be a higher priority than babble today!

1:04 pm

car.eeyore

{{{hugs to stid}}}

1:04 pm

jimmel

Get distracted, stid...it may help

1:04 pm

car.eeyore

My kids are 4 and 6.

1:05 pm

westford

God bless you

1:05 pm

AsGreen

yes - go nap!! :)

1:05 pm

westford

bet they're darling

1:05 pm

AsGreen

stiddy - have you been feeling well lately- you had a rough winter!

1:05 pm

car.eeyore

My kids are awesome and gorgeous...they just have about 100 x the energy that I do!

1:06 pm

jimmel

Aw...sweet ages, car, but you certainly need to rest if you're running on 3 hours of sleep!

1:06 pm

stidmama

I have been okay As, the hip continues to improve, and the last few days were sunny and I was able to get outside for a little bit. That felt SO nice! thanks for asking. I am just, I think, a bit overwhelmed with this master's application -- I am overthinking it. But it doesn't feel "done" either...

1:07 pm

westford

everything has been falling into place hasn't it stid?

1:07 pm

car.eeyore

Stid...relax...babble...have a cup of tea...enjoy the good company here...and it will all seem manageable before you know it!

1:07 pm

jimmel

I can't say I've ever had a panic attack, stid, but my sister is prone, and I know she has some tough times like that...most of it connected to thinking about all the "what ifs" in her life.

1:07 pm

AsGreen

well, I'm glad you are improving...and just take a deep breath!!

1:08 pm

stidmama

yes west, it has -- which in a way may be the precipitant for this. I think perhaps I am waiting for the "everything to go wrong" (again) part...

1:08 pm

stidmama

LOL my head says that's nonsense, of course!

1:08 pm

stidmama

*breathing deeply*

1:08 pm

AsGreen

so, my breeder (well, Ringo's breeder) has some gorgeous puppies available!! www.westwoodlabradoodles.com

1:08 pm

o-o

Remember, feelings of panic are just exaggerations of normal bodily stress reactions.

1:09 pm

car.eeyore

Don't tempt me!

1:09 pm

stidmama

oh gee. if only I could afford more critters!

1:09 pm

stidmama

ah BR, you bring the human element right back in! *grin and hug*

1:09 pm

stidmama

f

1:09 pm

AsGreen

car - my kiddos are 10 - the perfect age to get a puppy. you should wait!! :)

1:09 pm

jimmel

Agreed, BR....that's an excellent way to put it

1:09 pm

o-o

Sensations are neither harmful nor dangerous--just unpleasant. Nothing worse will happen.

1:09 pm

jimmel

By the way, BR, I have shared your profile quote...it's lovely

1:10 pm

car.eeyore

We already had one...it now lives at my mom's...we were stressing the dog out so she had to move!

1:10 pm

stidmama

yes BR, I know this -- but unpleasant isn't much fun. So I am babbling. helps to take the focus to something where I feel successful.

1:10 pm

Atalante

I nearly died from a panic attack. Typical me!!

1:10 pm

AsGreen

I have NOT ONE e word

1:10 pm

o-o

Anxiety is temporary. Instead of fighting it, relax into it. Just let it be.

1:10 pm

AsGreen

hi Ata!

1:10 pm

car.eeyore

OK..back to business...need 1 more N...have ne 4, ne 6, ne 6, ne 4, ne 4, ne 4

1:10 pm

stidmama

(((Atalante))) so glad you didn't! HEY! when are you coming to visit?

1:11 pm

stidmama

*cue Beatles sound track*

1:11 pm

car.eeyore

To mark on glass for ET 4; past tense for ET 6

1:11 pm

o-o

Focus on facing the fear rather than trying to avoid it or escape from it.

1:11 pm

AsGreen

tx car....

1:11 pm

stidmama

don't forget the person who makes the mark for the next et 6 also!

1:11 pm

o-o

Stop adding to the panic with frightening thoughts of where panic will lead.

1:12 pm

stidmama

*puts on martial arts uniform to face down fear*

1:12 pm

car.eeyore

use your visual orbits for EY 4 x 2 and another EY 4 with a different consonant at the end!

1:12 pm

Atalante

I don't knoooooooow. I want to be there now. Husband is being gurmpy about me visiting again

1:12 pm

o-o

Stay in the present. Be aware of what is happening to you rather than concern yourself with how much worse it might get.

1:13 pm

stidmama

well bring husband then. we can send him up to Mt Hood with my menfolk, and we can go to Powell's

1:13 pm

car.eeyore

Keep going BR...feeling better than I have in a while...!

1:13 pm

stidmama

I like presents, BR! *wanders up stairs in pink castle to open early bday presents*

1:13 pm

Atalante

he has no holiday left this year. this translates to if he can't go on holiday, nor can I!

1:13 pm

o-o

Notice that when you stop adding to the panic with frightening thoughts, the fear begins to fade.

1:13 pm

AsGreen

getting lots of e words...tx - I'm good! 70 left

1:14 pm

o-o

Wait and give the fear time to pass.

1:14 pm

car.eeyore

ATa, clearly Stid is stressed...she needs some guidance and a good friend to see her through...

1:14 pm

car.eeyore

Would that work with the Hubby?

1:14 pm

o-o

Look around you. Plan what you will do next as the panic subsides.

1:14 pm

Atalante

it's nice when random placations actually work ...

1:15 pm

stidmama

this is true, car... and if Ata came in August, she could come to the T4 meeting and talk about phage applications in art...

1:15 pm

o-o

When you are ready to go on, do so in an easy, relaxed manner. There is no hurry.

1:15 pm

o-o

Think about the progress made so far, despite all the difficulties.

1:16 pm

stidmama

I am making progress... down to 93 words.

1:16 pm

car.eeyore

BR...How do you do this so easily?

1:16 pm

car.eeyore

Did anyone have a clue for my missing N?

1:16 pm

stidmama

is this grid hard or is it just me?

1:16 pm

Atalante

I will continue annoying him until he agrees

1:16 pm

o-o

practice.

1:16 pm

stidmama

sorry car, the only n I have is "require" ne 4 and hawaiian goose

1:16 pm

HarryHood

4 more to halfway

1:17 pm

car.eeyore

It's tricky stid. Lots of word building...once you get one word, you can make several....but other words are very tricky.

1:17 pm

stidmama

you do that, Atalante.

1:17 pm

car.eeyore

Go Harry!

1:17 pm

stidmama

go Harry go!

1:29 pm

westford

seriously I admire all your achievements

1:29 pm

westford

I don't know how you do it

1:29 pm

stidmama

thanks west. *bows modestly*

1:31 pm

stidmama

the secret is desperation. When I have a panic attack, I babble. So I get lots of practice. It really is my safe place. If I can't babble right then, I know that I will be okay until I can. So when I am babble-less on vacation, I do okay because I know somewhere, someone is babbling. *shrug* it works for me, anyway.

1:31 pm

westford

this is the best therapy isn't it?

1:32 pm

AsGreen

omg, it's 2:30???? must go shower before kiddos get home.... bye! ***poof***

1:32 pm

stidmama

yes, it is. even though sometimes I don't have time to just sit and chat.

1:32 pm

stidmama

which, actually... *waves bye to As* is today. I don't have a lot of time left.

1:33 pm

flosey

babble is good therapy but even better is the really super group of friends we have here - don't know of any other such place online

1:33 pm

westford

hi flosey did you get a good night's sleep?

1:33 pm

Atalante

5:07 pm

torgone

They might not approve ..

5:07 pm

redturtlehead

Exactly. I already have the big dog that they did approve of. but lots of water...

5:08 pm

redturtlehead

Well, I am off to work tomorro, and maybe someone will want to drive over to Clermont and do it. its like 45 min away though :(

7:22 pm

hey, babrab. thx, but having a bout with my IBS, taking pills and living on yogurt, cheese, rice, and the like. :( oh, well. other people have worse problems. how are you?

7:23 pm

Minveryork

Hello tygerbryght! How are you? Welcome to the grid

7:23 pm

tygerbryght

hey, min. I think you'll get a lot of reaction to your theme, mostly sad/negative. lots of people simply haven't been able to put it behind them. I'm not one, but I do understand.

7:23 pm

o-o

I have a good friend with Crohns .... I am fine

7:24 pm

tygerbryght

my problem isn't nearly as bad - or as recurrent - as Crohn's (thank God). mostly my problem goes the other way

7:25 pm

Minveryork

Good point tygerbryght. Ok,off to change icon. BRB!

7:25 pm

tygerbryght

I feel a great deal of sympathy for people with Crohn's, as I have at least a faint idea of what they suffer

7:25 pm

o-o

treatment is so hit or miss

7:26 pm

tygerbryght

yup. they understand it better than they used to, but there is still no cure for Crohn's. I know that it kills lots of people much younger than they *should* die.

7:54 pm

JBV

i lived in NYC when the towers were built and I remember seeing them for the first time - so spectacular and unforgettable

7:54 pm

JBV

hi everyone - finished earlier but stopped in to say hello, anyone need a clue?

7:54 pm

Minveryork

Hello welki! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid!

7:54 pm

tygerbryght

as nice as the other photo was, I stand by my original comment. I think min was wise to change it. some people are very sensitive about it still

7:55 pm

jesdraggon

hi jbv. still need too many to ask et :)

7:55 pm

welki

me too, jb ... when they were being built, they seemed so mysterious .. never did make it to the restaurant at the "top of the world"

7:55 pm

sammysmom

i like the new theme minver- we are doing ther recycling thing with paper aluminum and plastic adn other things

7:55 pm

JBV

I understand tyger, they are now a symbol of something too terrible to remember

7:55 pm

jesdraggon

are you being controversial, min?

7:56 pm

welki

too terrible to forget

7:56 pm

tygerbryght

this is a kinda weird grid. usually, I can get at least half of the words before I start using word lists, but I was only able to get about 40 on this grid

7:56 pm

welki

wish i'd seen your icon, jb

7:57 pm

JBV

welki, the restaurant was just a restaurant as far as I'm concerned (had a dinner there once, but don't remember the food); however, just the experience of going up 107 stories in the elevator was the highlight for me!

7:57 pm

sammysmom

i think it is so important- also doing little things like replacing lightbulbs with the new kind- using cloth bags for shopping have a compost pile for the garden etc

7:57 pm

Minveryork

I guess I was,but I really did not mean to be.Had the Twin Towers as my icon pic for the icon theme today

7:57 pm

tygerbryght

no, jes. min decided she didn't want to be controversial. that's why she changed it. she had a nice commentary to go with the photo, too

7:57 pm

lexleeanne

hello - any help available for cr/12?

7:58 pm

welki

(oops, sorry, i thought jbv had the photo .. it was min's)

7:58 pm

Andree

in6/21 please

7:58 pm

tygerbryght

but jes, you know how things can blow up around here over what seems innocuous to the originator

7:58 pm

jesdraggon

what's the theme?

7:58 pm

Minveryork

famous buildings

7:58 pm

jesdraggon

yah... lots of toes on the internet to step on ;)

7:58 pm

tygerbryght

cr5/12: cr + unrefined metal

7:58 pm

JBV

cr + raw mineral

7:58 pm

7:59 pm

jesdraggon

that's what i thought... how do the towers connect to earthday, if you don't mind my asking, min?

7:59 pm

tygerbryght

yup, lex

8:00 pm

pam

theme isn't earth day. something about buildings....

8:00 pm

sammysmom

still need the first re 5/14- have fiddled with them for so long they are confusing

8:00 pm

jesdraggon

that makes so much more sense

8:00 pm

tygerbryght

min doesn't usually do the themes, anyway. she specializes in birthdays :)

8:00 pm

JBV

re 5/14 = the past tense of a color!

8:00 pm

Minveryork

Earth Day is not the icon theme,famous buildings is.I changed icon to Earth Day since today is Earth Day.

8:01 pm

tygerbryght

re5/14: babblet + PT

8:01 pm

sammysmom

could have sworn i tried that- thanks

8:01 pm

jesdraggon

8:02 pm

8:02 pm

I enjoy her birthday people. I've never heard of most of them (don't watch TV, haven't been to a movie in *years*), but they're still neat

8:02 pm

8:02 pm
