1:06 am

rururocks

two loaves of wheat bread coarsely torn.. 1 cup of parseley chopped fine. one onion chopped fine, 15-20 prunes chopped coarsely, 4 leaves of sage.. 1 quart of milk and two raw eggs. toss the bread with the two eggs and gently pour in milk.. add onions, and prunes and parseley and pour in rest of milk.. bake in oven at 350 for 45 minutes to one hour coming out with turkey.. you can add nuts to it as well.

1:07 am

Just1Mar

do you stuff the turkey too? or do you just cook it separately?

1:07 am

rururocks

you stuff part of it in the turkey and bake the other in a large baking dish.

1:08 am

rururocks

and then mix them together later when the bird comes out.

the av's have me stumped. I have av 5, 5, 6 but not sure the order they fit in

2:05 am

VolleymomDee

not sure what s came from there... si 4/5 maybe... one like ill, but instead of k... use plural letter

2:05 am

VolleymomDee

s+ frozen water

2:06 am

Just1Mar

have that but just found it thx :)

2:06 am

VolleymomDee

av 5/16 looks like water brand but change first letter from e to a

2:06 am

VolleymomDee

next av 5/16 is same as 1st but change last vowel to letter designating surpise (shape of mouth)

2:07 am

VolleymomDee

av 6/27 is plural of the 2nd av

2:07 am

VolleymomDee

av 5/16 is a + papers needed to travel to other countries to work but last letter is changed from an o to the 1st letter of the alphabet

2:08 am

VolleymomDee

and the last av 6/27 is the plural of the one I just clued

2:08 am

VolleymomDee

so av 5/16; av 5/16; av 6/27; av 5/16, av 6/27

I have them for 11 days.

Then my daughter lives 2 blocks away and has been moving so I have many oft times, too, so it's been a handful.

5:11 am

Merk

Boy, I worded that wrong. I have my daughter's two year old quite often, too, so when they are all awake, I'm not managing much else besides them.

5:14 am

lynxxx

that's OK - I figured another child was in the picture. 2 3 & 5 - no, I guess you wouldn't get anything else done. Still its not forever and such lovely ages so I imagine its all worth while (can you tell I am jealous?)

5:14 am

lynxxx

that's OK - I figured another child was in the picture. 2 3 & 5 - no, I guess you wouldn't get anything else done. Still its not forever and such lovely ages so I imagine its all worth while (can you tell I am jealous?)

Hello, Scrabs

8:08 am

Scrabbler

No, guess what I did Elder? I took 3 tiles outside and filed them down by scraping them on a rock. So simple that even a caveman can do it!

8:09 am

Scrabbler

Hi Zooz

8:09 am

jacq

lol scrabbler, i use a hasp, and a small hand saw

8:09 am

Scrabbler

Hi Mom2--what project? I have done toilet repairs.

I remember years ago going out side to sharpen a knives on the doorstep, it worked.

8:12 am

mom2han8

Just have a bit of a leak under the kitchen sink.

8:13 am

mom2han8

I asked my husband to take a look at it yesterday, as I was running a car wash fundraiser for my daughter's 8th grade class... his response: I'm not a plumber.... LOL... me neither!

8:13 am

elder

Mom2 turn off the stop tap and undo it might just need a new washer.

8:13 am

Scrabbler

Yay, Elder. I initially thought that I had a file but when I didn't I thought of a rock.

8:13 am

jacq

things might just need to be tightened

8:14 am

Wolvie

good morning all

8:14 am

Scrabbler

Hi wolvie

8:14 am

elder

Rocks /stones are good and have been used for thousands of years.

8:14 am

mom2han8

So, I will take a look in a little while... does not leak all the time, just when it is being used a lot... there is an area where the pipes meet that is wet... I think it just needs to be tightened and a have a little adhesive or plumber's tape applied. Really, no biggie... I'm sure I will have it fixed in five minutes... and, guess what? I'm no plumber either... LOL!

8:14 am

elder

Hello Wolvie.

8:15 am

Hello, Wolvie :-)

8:15 am

You can get this "goo" stuff to seal pipe connections

8:15 am

jacq

heya wolvie

8:15 am

mom2han8

Yes... Scrabbler... I think I have seen that... I have to go get the plumber's tape anyway... so I will take a look.

8:16 am

elder

Mom2 it might be best to undo and check as if you put just tape on it will leak again in the near future..

8:16 am

8:18 am

Or he will think you can do the little repairs but i like Scrabblers thinking better.

8:19 am

mom2han8

Scrabbler... I will... but the funny thing is he does not care.... you would think he would hate being shown up by a woman... but it does not seem to bother him, God bless him, LOL!

8:19 am

Wolvie

scrabs - i know what i would show him - lol. Go Mom2 go!

8:19 am

jacq

doesn't our resourcefulness just reinforce their learned behaviour?

8:19 am

mom2han8

He honestly could care less about being able to fix anything, LOL... I do all that type of stuff.

8:19 am

Scrabbler

And make sure you tell him how much money you saved by not using a plmber.

8:20 am

mom2han8

Yes it does jac... but, sadly, if I pay for a plumber then I cannot afford groceries... so, who suffers in the end???

8:26 am

Hi JBV

8:32 am

jmcnrick

why is that weird JBV? It is amazing how sexist people still are.

8:32 am

JBV

so true, jmc - I have lunch with some people who spend the entire hour discussing models of washing machines, style of counter tops, etc. - I couldn't care less

8:33 am

JBV

laundry is still a chore, no matter how red or shiny the machine is

8:33 am

8:38 am

8:49 am

Oh, I'm still motivated in my own little world, jmc, but DC opens up so many possibilities, for those who see the big picture, then life intervenes and we make the choice we have to make

8:49 am

I told him to wait until he wanted to go to college because I couldn't afford for him to drop out!

It's called not biting the hand that feeds you!

9:22 am

Joanne123

9:22 am

Nef

Morning all. How are you today?

9:22 am

Haz1558

The Governess, TO. The 'Shall we dance?' lady.

9:22 am

Nef

(I didn't notice Haz. When and where?

9:22 am

Haz1558

Good morning, Nef. I'm well.

9:23 am

72 Temple Owl

ok. she's old news :P

9:23 am

Nef

Ah! I even got the clue from that too! Thank You!

9:23 am

Haz1558

It's gone off the page.

9:24 am

72 Temple Owl

gee i wonder why.

9:24 am

Nef

What did happen there TO?

9:24 am

Haz1558

No idea.

9:24 am

72 Temple Owl

i just do not believe there are 145 words in this grid. i don't even have a 7 letter word yet.

9:25 am

Joanne123

well i ad.... u too look harder

9:25 am

dan2bit

in7 is a triple compound word

9:25 am

Haz1558

Haz ad7/44 TO to keep looking, although I agree it's a shake your fist grid at times.

9:25 am

jacq

and if you don't find any it will be a sc***** worthy of the gutter press

9:26 am

72 Temple Owl

ty

9:26 am

72 Temple Owl

9:27 am

Joanne123

ty jac

9:27 am

jacq

9:27 am

Joanne123

9:27 am

Haz1558

As if I would ever admonish anybody. The idea!

9:28 am

72 Temple Owl

i am just an illiterate slob

9:28 am

gramma

ES words have me stumped. Any help out there?

9:28 am

Haz1558

No, you're not. Look at how you can spell illiterate.

9:28 am

Nef

To, that's the Last thing I'd ever believe about you!

9:28 am

Joanne123

lol.. but like to know where u got that m from

9:29 am

Joanne123

and u r not

9:29 am

Nef

and that was supposed to be TO...

9:29 am

72 Temple Owl

joanne: i find when you do not see a work you should just type without looking, then go throught he brainstorming process. admonish begins with ad

9:30 am

Haz1558

es plus an auto, es6/18 is another.

9:30 am

gramma

ty I can't believe me sometimes

9:30 am

Haz1558

es6/18 - think petrol firm plus not out.

9:30 am

Joanne123

9:31 am

72 Temple Owl

72 Temple Owl

i love jewelry and all accessories. really. more than clothes.

9:32 am

Haz1558

Distraction for TO....

9:32 am

Nef

TO, have you ever found the website Bidz.com (not that it will help you NOT buy jewerly, though!)

9:32 am

Haz1558

Yes, but you'd be better to see things in the flesh.

9:32 am

Joanne123

you should see my costume jewelry to

9:33 am

72 Temple Owl

it was a neat silver ring, smokly quartz with enamel cheetah print on band. big rings are in and i do not have one.

9:33 am

dan2bit

clues for the lower I? in7 as I have the in7

9:33 am

jacq

i agree with haz, when the sudio lights aren't making them look brilliant they are probably a disappointment

9:33 am

72 Temple Owl

also onyx with zebra print

9:33 am

jacq

animal print rings????

9:33 am

Nef

I'm allergic to metal and I love jewelry too. For a while I was buying lots of jewelry there

9:33 am

Haz1558

in4 and in5 - relating to knowledge, but shortened.

9:33 am

72 Temple Owl

all: i have been a qvc shopper for years and have only been disappointed once or twice. seriously.

9:34 am

dan2bit

aha duh tx for the doublefish, haz

9:34 am

Haz1558

No problem, dan.

9:34 am

Angelsong

hi, all. I just created a dedicated profile on Firefox for FaceBook.

9:37 am

Joanne123

ohh get it to lol

9:37 am

Haz1558

Bye Une!

9:37 am

Haz1558

It'll be a bitter pill for TO if other babblers buy up all available stock on QVC.

9:37 am

jacq

lol no thanks

9:38 am

jacq

i don;t suit big rings

9:39 am

Joanne123

i'm broke, have another home to pay for now

9:39 am

jacq

not getting the pic TO

9:39 am

72 Temple Owl

band is small, smokey color is unobtrusive. i do exercise much caution though, they will make everything sound loike th ebest thing since sliced bread. esp the clothing

9:40 am

Nef

T O, if you want someone's opinion, I think it's a bit on the tacky side for a ring to be done in an animal print.

9:41 am

jacq

i'm inclined to agree with nef, still haven't seen it though

9:41 am

Haz1558

I know. Those QVC folk are so positive about everything.

9:41 am

jacq

thats because they are paid to be

9:41 am

72 Temple Owl

no, i am very, VERY good at putting toegther outfits and wager i could dress anyone who asked in a way to faltter them.

9:42 am

Haz1558

So it's not that they're incredibly optimistic and open-minded?

9:42 am

Nef

Earrings are okay, but rings are a more permanent accessory (IMHO, anyway). Women change their earrings more often than their rings

9:42 am

jacq

no Haz, lol, it's that they are on commission

9:43 am

Haz1558

Dear me. And there I was thinking that they were doing it for love of mankind.

9:43 am

72 Temple Owl

we're talking an investment of less than %40 and it has resale value.

9:44 am

Nef

any help with that lower left corner A? I'm drawing a blank here

9:44 am

jacq

TO, anything, no matter how pretty or rare is only worth what anyone id willing to pay for it

9:44 am

72 Temple Owl

the new hosts are extremely irritating. i remember when they started and the best host was a high school drama teacher

9:44 am

gramma

The 2nd NA5/16 has me stumped. Help,please.

9:44 am

Haz1558

You're being very persistent, TO. You wanted us to distract you!

72 Temple Owl

oops dryer buzzed happy babblingto all

NM got it.

9:45 am

jacq

ai and 2 consonants, plural end

FMitch

Afternoon all

9:52 am

Nef

hi FM

9:52 am

Haz1558

Good afternoon, FM!

9:52 am

FMitch

Hello Haz! Wonder how Ata and Liz are?

9:53 am

FMitch

If the cloud base was too low they wouldn't have been able to jump.

9:53 am

Haz1558

Pretty nervous, I'd imagine. What time are they supposed to go?

9:54 am

FMitch

Hello Nef :)

I should imagine it is all done by now, brifing was at 8.15 am

9:55 am

Haz1558

So we just have to wait for the reports?

9:56 am

FMitch

Im going to attempt to send her a text (which wil take me about 10 mins to type 'how did it go?') LOL

9:56 am

Nef

what did they do? Parachute?

9:57 am

Haz1558

No chance of either of us developing texter's thumb.

9:57 am

Haz1558

Yes, parachuting to raise money for Dogs for the Disabled.

9:57 am

Nef

oh, My! I would never do something like that!

9:58 am

Haz1558

They didn't think they would either!

9:58 am

FMitch

Definitely not, just managed to spell Hi wrong twice *sigh*

9:58 am

FMitch

They are both mad Nef, Ata is jumping with another babbler Lizsark.

9:58 am

Haz1558

Just put a question mark, FM. She'll know.

9:59 am

Nef

FM, they have to be mad to do that. And Lizark? I haven't seen her around for such a long time!

10:00 am

Haz1558

She wasn't around as much as usual, Nef. People kept coming into her shop to buy things and disturbing her babbling.

10:01 am

FMitch

I've managed Hi how did it go luv fm, now to find her number.

10:02 am

Haz1558

That's pretty fast. Do you have nice big print?

10:03 am

FMitch

No v small text and on a tiny mobile with light bouncing off the screen but it has been sent. :)

10:03 am

Nef

WTG, FM!

10:03 am

FMitch

Anyhoo, hows the grid today?

10:03 am

Haz1558

Well done!

10:04 am

Haz1558

It's an exercise in remembering words used before.

10:04 am

72 Temple Owl

hi fm!

10:04 am

FMitch

:) to me a mobile is for making the odd phone call or for emergencies and tha tis all.

Hey TO, nice t see ya!

10:05 am

Nef

I sent 2 text msgs to my son this AM (to check on sick baby); but it took me about 10 minutes for each of them. Needless to say, it took him prolly 30 sec. to send back a long one (than goodness he didn't expect an answer!)

10:05 am

Haz1558

I know, no screeds for me.

10:06 am

FMitch

So glad it's not just me Nef.

10:06 am

Haz1558

It's not just you.

10:07 am

Nef

I have to change my settings to "ABC" mode since what *I* expect "ENG" to type when I hit certain buttons isn't what pops up at all!

10:09 am

Haz1558

I couldn't figure out why my sister wasn't responding to text messages. I finally had to ring the phone company, only to discover that I had barred her. I have no idea how I managed that!

10:09 am

FMitch

LOL!

10:10 am

Nef

Wow! I didn't know there was such a feature!

10:10 am

FMitch

... and now for the mobile phone masterclass (not).

10:10 am

Haz1558

Nor did I. The lady was very patient but I'm sure she thought I was a right one.

10:12 am

Nef

LOL! My mobile phone company keeps telling me that I can have a free uprade now. I've had this cell phone for about 4 years and am just getting used o most of it's features; why would I ever want to change and have to relearn new stuff again? It works just great anyway...

10:13 am

72 Temple Owl

spoken like a true ludite

10:14 am

FMitch

OK fair warning I am diving in, stand back - you have been warned! 3 .. 2 ..

10:14 am

FMitch

1!

10:14 am

Haz1558

I only changed mine recently because my daughter had broken hers and there was a bit of trading going on. Poor salesman had to find me a cheap phone with big numbers and as few bells and whistles as possible.

10:15 am

Haz1558

And I STILL managed to bar my sister.

10:15 am

72 Temple Owl

haz they sell one liek that here with a real operator to assist you.

10:15 am

Nef

oh TO; for years I had to stay up on every new medical device approved or in experimental stages and did it willingly. This old phone is sort of a security blanket: I can fall back on it's "older" technology

10:16 am

Haz1558

Honestly? Imagine having to train someone to deal with someone like me. How long can you keep them for?

10:16 am

Nef

isn't it for small children, TO?

10:16 am

72 Temple Owl

hahaha

10:16 am

jacq

lolololololol

10:17 am

72 Temple Owl

if you say so, nef. haz, google: jitterbug phone

10:17 am

Googling....

FMitch

Hi jacq

10:17 am

jacq

hello again FM, sorry was trying to recue my breadstick from trouble

10:18 am

jacq

can anyone clue the en's please? they are driving me nuts and i can't get past them

10:19 am

Nef

One of the things that bugs me about the newer phones is that why would I want one that takes pictures? I have a perfectly wonderful small camera that takes beautiful pictures that I can take anywhere

10:19 am

FMitch

how did your bradstick get into trouble? mmm food.

10:19 am

Haz1558

en plus eyes, chin, lips etc, en6/18 - en, a vowel, shortened female sibling.

10:19 am

Haz1558

Jitterbug phones look like the way forward, TO!

FMitch

oh I will have to google too brb

10:20 am

jacq

heay beach

10:21 am

72 Temple Owl

i don't find those operators very friednly. i think they are like the kids they are hiring now that roll their eyes at us older folks! ;)

10:22 am

Nef

I figure phones are made to communicate with. Texting is sometimes the ONLY way the kids will answer; but I don't need the internet or cameras or other things to go wrong

10:22 am

Nef

hi beach

10:22 am

Haz1558

Hello beach.

10:23 am

FMitch

When my bf got a new phone he kept taking pics of his ear thinking he had hit dial :)

10:23 am

Nef

Gosh, Darn! Don't we sound like a bunch of old foggies though this AM!!?

10:23 am

jacq

lol

10:23 am

72 Temple Owl

haz: next topic is "jitterbug complaints" i am checking it now

10:23 am

Nef

LOL, FM!

10:23 am

72 Temple Owl

ROFLMAO @FM

10:23 am

Christa

lol fmitch

10:23 am

Haz1558

Yes, it seems some have had to be recalled.

10:24 am

FMitch

Hi Christa

We are not old fogies, we just choose to have phones that make phone calls, thats all :)

10:25 am

jacq

my phone does everything, but i only call and text, and take pics of the grandchildren lol

10:25 am

Christa

good morning.... I am so enjoying this mornings talk...what would I do if there were no babbling?

10:26 am

72 Temple Owl

complaints that operators canno keepup with calls and bad customer srvice re billing.

10:26 am

72 Temple Owl

hi crista!

10:28 am

Nef

We had a funeral on DH's side of the family out in Oregon an few years ago while I was recuperating from foot surgery. (DH has MS, and some cognitive problems, BTW). He was travelling with other relatives, but I put into speed dial several numbers he'd need while out there; wrote a little instruction list with the numbers and taped it to the phone so he could call who he needed to.

10:28 am

Nef

When he came back; he had erased half of my phonebook list and double copied all of the rest!

10:29 am

jacq

lol

10:29 am

jacq

i managed to double all my contacts

10:29 am

Nef

I love the guy; but he's never using my phone again! ;-)

10:30 am

Nef

Oh? Jacq; how do you do that? I've never figured out how he did it

10:31 am

jacq

i dn't even know nef, but i think i copied all my conrtacts from my sim card to the phone memory and vice versa

10:32 am

Haz1558

This is where it starts to get technical.

10:32 am

jacq

lol

10:32 am

jacq

i couldn't undo it, had to sit for hours and delete every double

10:32 am

Haz1558

Memories? Why should a phone have a memory?

10:33 am

jacq

the phones own settings are in it's own memory, then you add to that

10:33 am

Haz1558

I'd probably end up doing something drastic and brining down the phone network.

10:33 am

FMitch

Rats, have used up my babble time and not entered a single word yet, must get on with some other stuff but hope to be back a little later.
Will let you know if I hear from the 'flying babblers' :)

10:34 am

Haz1558

Shame you didn't babble, but you'll get to it later, hopefully.

10:34 am

Haz1558

Football results coming in?

10:34 am

Nef

Bye, FM! Stay away from the jewelry sites and QVC!!!

10:34 am

jacq

lol no haz, ata and liz are skydiving

10:35 am

FMitch

Chatted tho wich was very nice. No all done with footie till tomorrow, been working all morning and have chores to do now.

10:36 am

Haz1558

Okay, see you later, FM. No reply to the text, I take it?

10:37 am

72 Temple Owl

well at our age it is god if something ha s amemory...

10:37 am

FMitch

No :(

10:37 am

Nef

I missed Church. Babbled too much. God will forgive me, though --I hope! ;-) After all, keeping good company and spreading world wide cheer ought to count for something!

10:37 am

FMitch

*poof*

10:37 am

Haz1558

Yes, because mine is fading fast.

10:38 am

Nef

My phone and computer have memory; should we have some too?

10:38 am

72 Temple Owl

ok must move. just taking out winter shoes and both pairs need repalcing. ihate shoe shopping

10:39 am

Haz1558

I can go upstairs intent on doing something and will have no clue by the time I get upstairs. It's infuriating.

10:39 am

72 Temple Owl

iput one pair on yesterday and they split!

10:40 am

Haz1558

Shoe shopping is a big responsibility, your feet are depending on you for comfort and style. There's more and more comfort creeping into my style.

10:40 am

Nef

same here, Haz. But I've found that if I'm tired, I can't remember anything at all; so it's better to get enough sleep (and write yourself notes)

10:40 am

Nef

TO, that's a definite sign you need new shoes.

10:41 am

Nef

I always buy shoes that are comfy the minute I put them on. If they aren't perfect at the start; then aren't worth buying. Always buy shoes after 4 PM BTW.

10:42 am

Haz1558

I don't think that was what Imelda Marcos used as her 'I need new shoes' criterion.

10:42 am

Haz1558

i.e my old pair has split.

10:42 am

72 Temple Owl

iam har dto fit and o tend to try to get one pair for every purpose. it never works. imelda i am not

10:42 am

Nef

LOL!

10:42 am

Christa

lol

10:43 am

Nef

I'm not into shopping at all, whether shoes, clothes or groceries. I have about 8 pairs of shoes, but some of them are over 10-15 years old

10:44 am

Nef

(And, I should throw some out as they no longer fit since my surgeries; but I have emotional attachments to them

10:45 am

Haz1558

My younger daughter had a pair of boots which she wore to death because she loved them so much. She's managed to use the leather from them to have a bespoke handbag made, so their usefulness goes on.

10:45 am

Nef

wow, Haz. I'm impressed! What is bespoke?

10:46 am

Haz1558

Made to order on an individual basis.

10:46 am

Haz1558

She found a lady who offered the service; she was also happy to include some handmade buttons which my daughter had, so it's a very personal handbag.

10:47 am

72 Temple Owl

nef you are like my dad. i try to tell hi the heels wear and more importantly the insdies wear, so they look fine but no longer give required support. it is their way, the older folk, to make do but with shoes it does not work.

10:47 am

72 Temple Owl

i have gym sneaks with not a mark on the outside that have borken down and can no longer be used.

10:48 am

Haz1558

It wasn't too expensive either, which pleased me!

10:48 am

Nef

TO, I'm one of those people who isn't hard on shoes. And since I've never been *in* to high fashion. my shoes are still very nice and in good condition

10:48 am

72 Temple Owl

sounds nice, haz. i am a one handbag person.

10:49 am

72 Temple Owl

haz you have mail dear

10:49 am

Haz1558

I like handbags, but the prices charged for some of the designer handbags are outrageous.

10:49 am

Haz1558

Checking.

10:50 am

72 Temple Owl

nef, what has fasion to do with it?

10:50 am

Nef

I would buy new nursing shoes every 1-2 years, but they weren't ever worn down and the inners looked good as new too. I bouhgt new shoes for work because I worried about bugs/contaminents and because I was afraid they *might* start causing foot pain

10:51 am

72 Temple Owl

nef: you are really something

10:51 am

Kazzer99

afternoon all

10:51 am

Nef

nothing, TO. I never followed fashion; I've always worn comfortable things

10:51 am

rururocks

(removes boogie man from under nef's bed too)

10:52 am

Haz1558

Hello ruru.

10:52 am

72 Temple Owl

oh, you emtioned it as if it was relevant

10:52 am

Haz1558

Hello Kazzer.

10:52 am

Nef

??? TO? (trying to figure out if that's an insult of complement) ;-)

10:53 am

rururocks

just kidding.. you have to change your shoes if you are nursing

10:53 am

Haz1558

(Hunkering down, checking my shoes)

10:53 am

Nef

hi ruru and Kazzer

10:53 am

rururocks

I am barefoot right now personally

10:53 am

Kazzer99

i am not into shoes but i am into handbags - i have quite a stash

10:53 am

72 Temple Owl

i am wearing flip flops, i will do so until the frost hits my toes

10:54 am

72 Temple Owl

they are happy to roam free ;)

10:54 am

Kazzer99

i am in nice cosy slippers as i have had cold feet most of the morning

10:54 am

Nef

LOL, ruru. so am I right now (slippers off feet, under footrest, feet bare and on top of footstool

10:55 am

rururocks

shoes are very unconfortable for me..

10:55 am

Nef

oh? how come ruru?

10:56 am

rururocks

I really haven't found shoes that fit me well. I can wear these great english shoes, but they hurt after being in them all day.

10:57 am

Haz1558

What are the English shoes?

10:57 am

Nef

wow. I was taught to shoe shop *after* being on my feet all day as that is when you can best tell if shoes are comfortable or not.

Nef

11:00 am

rururocks

11:01 am

Nef

DH found that New Balance has comfortable casual shoes for him; don't know if they go up to 13's though

11:01 am

72 Temple Owl

who is dh?

11:01 am

rururocks

hmm I will check on those.

11:02 am

Nef

Dear hubby; my better half (most of the time!) ;-)

11:02 am

rururocks

lol

11:02 am

72 Temple Owl

oh, i thought it was a babbler

11:03 am

72 Temple Owl

ru i can relate, my feet are wide and shoe shoping is time consuming and frustrating

11:03 am

Nef

our son tried the brand name shoes (Nike, etc) and found that the most comfortable shoes for him are the cheap Target brand shoes. It all depends on the shape of your foot

11:04 am

rururocks

I know.. I buy shoes and put them on for the day and they don't seem to fit after I get them out of the store.

11:04 am

Nef

if you have weird sized feet, I'd suggest going to Nordstroms and having them fit your feet, TO.

11:05 am

rururocks

Unfortunately the shoe company I buy from is only in NY...and I have to arrange to go shoe shopping while there.

11:05 am

dcseain

Yes, Nordstrom is great for that, TO

11:05 am

rururocks

good morning DC

11:05 am

Nef

ruru, have you ever been properly fitted for shoes?

11:05 am

Nef

Morning Seain

11:05 am

rururocks

yes..

11:05 am

72 Temple Owl

nef: i can't afford nordstroms. by the glares they give me whne i walk through the store, they know it , too.

11:06 am

rururocks

doesn't really help.. I tend to have flat feet too, hence the campfire joke...

11:06 am

72 Temple Owl

after proper measurement, most companies don't make them in my size anyway

11:06 am

Haz1558

Good morning dc.

11:07 am

dcseain

Morning, ruru, nef, TO, Haz :)

11:07 am

72 Temple Owl

hi seain, how's tom?

11:07 am

Nef

I actually have 2 different sized feet, my left foot is an 8 or 8 1/2 now; and my right is a 6 1/2. Nordstrom doesn't advertise it, but they used to fit each foot separately and I could buy one of each size and pay for only one pair of shoes

11:08 am

dcseain

He's doing well, pain is starting to diminish, TO. Thanks for asking.

11:09 am

Soodle

Hi everybody! Has inone in the Flip-Flop fan club tried the new FIT-flops? They are the most comfy footwear I have every worn. Dreading the onset of winter, when I will have to cage my feet in shoes again

11:09 am

Nef

TO, my sister has short fat feet (like 3 E's) and she used to buy shoes through Lane Bryant. I don't know if they still sell shoes or whenre she buys them now; but I can ask her if it would help. Re: Nordstroms, I used to dress up before I went there! :-)

11:10 am

Haz1558

Hello Soodle. I've seen the fit-flops but not worn them.

11:10 am

Nef

Oh, DC! I'm so glad he's doing better now!

11:10 am

Soodle

Oooh Haz. a bit pricey, but well worth it

11:10 am

72 Temple Owl

good. i shoould have left hours ago. happy babbling.

11:11 am

Haz1558

Bye TO! May you find shoes that fit.

11:12 am

Nef

Soodle! I just googled them and they make winter shoes and boots too!

11:12 am

Nef

Bye TO!!

11:13 am

Soodle

Oh joy, oh happiness Nef. Now, all I have to do is find the money :(

11:13 am

72 Temple Owl

light yeast dough with honey almonds and italian meringue folded into pastry cream :D

11:15 am

Haz1558

I'm fine, Dorens, thanks.

11:15 am

Dorens

well the jump should have been jumped by now, yes?

11:16 am

Dorens

owl, are you actually going to make a yeast dough and meringe, as well as pastry cream? aren't you the one who said you don't cook much?

11:16 am

Haz1558

It should have been jumped. We're wondering if cloud cover might have aborted things.

11:16 am

Soodle

Its not the jump that would worry me, its the landing!!

11:16 am

Dorens

well i have not even ventured into the grid yet, so I will jump now

11:16 am

72 Temple Owl

i did not say i ould MAKE it, jus tthat i found the proper name and recipe.

11:17 am

Haz1558

She's either so drunk with success and euphoria that she can't communicate, or so stricken with shock that she's forgotten she has friends who need to know.

11:17 am

Dorens

ohhhhh. owl I was about to name you top pastry chef of babbleonia

11:17 am

Nef

hi Dorens

11:17 am

72 Temple Owl

this recipe was given by Julia Child years ago in McCall's magazine.....she stated that there was a great Restaurant in New York that she and her husband frequented and this cake would be on their dessert cart. Three times she asked for it for her dessert selection and by the time they were ready for dessert, they would be sold out!! The fourth time, she ordered her dessert first before the meal and had them place it on her table to insure she got hers!! After tasting it she realized why it would sell out so quickly....she asked for their recipe.

11:18 am

Soodle

Oh bless. I hope it all went well for her

11:18 am

Dorens

how could ata forget us... impossible. hi nef

11:18 am

Haz1558

Well, we wait on for news...

11:19 am

Dorens

did she mention the name of the restaurant owl?

11:19 am

Haz1558

I'm going to take a break to have a look at the paper. Enjoy the grid and happy babbling!

11:19 am

72 Temple Owl

11:22 am

72 Temple Owl

11:23 am

Dorens

oooh crumby crumby crumb cake!!

11:23 am

72 Temple Owl

the fanous heavy crumb hall ! i shall put one in the pb

11:23 am

Dorens

all i ever like is the crumbs, and they have a very high crumb to cake ratio

11:24 am

Dorens

good idea

11:25 am

72 Temple Owl

my mom would smack my fingers for picking them off. my grandma would wait till she wasn't looking and pick the big ones, the ones that are like fcrumbs on top of the crums, for me. i did not like the cake part just the crumbs

11:26 am

Dorens

yup, the cake is just plain cake, not worth the caloriees, imho. at my school a couple of people make it every time we have a festive occasion... i take a piece back to my office and eat the crumbs, throw out the cake (shhhh.. don't tell)

11:26 am

72 Temple Owl

i understand cushman's made one that was better?

11:27 am

11:32 am

72 Temple Owl

11:32 am

11:32 am

Dorens

11:33 am

kje

11:34 am

72 Temple Owl

galnces sidewise at seain with narrowe eyes* seian: do you bake?

11:34 am

Dorens

i never cared much for sausage, even though i love pork, but chicken sausages are one of my old standbys, now that i don't like to cook too much

11:34 am

Kazzer99

dorens - we just have it stewed by its self - its is beautifully sweet and tender

11:34 am

dcseain

11:34 am

11:35 am

kje

11:35 am

72 Temple Owl

11:36 am

72 Temple Owl

lol

11:36 am

Dorens

11:38 am

Dorens

or maybe even rhubarb. we used to grow it in our garden and my mom made such wonderful strawberry rhubarb pies

11:38 am

72 Temple Owl

doren, a trick i learned from my mother was to also reaost chicken breat on the bone with the sausage peppers et alll. they get the lovely seasoning and you have the next day's meal

11:38 am

dcseain

grandma made strawberry pies and rhubarb pies, and served them together.

11:39 am

11:48 am

dcseain

yes, i'd expect so, FM

11:48 am

FMitch

Hello again kids.

12:02 pm

Scrabbler

I need to relax--I vacuumed the entire downstairs and have laundry going.

12:03 pm

redturtlehead

Scrabbler, you are amazing, is the new job going along well?

12:03 pm

rururocks

(looks at our downstairs and wishes scrabs was here)

12:04 pm

Scrabbler

Yes, this is my first weekend on call--it started Friday night. No office hours on Sundays.

12:04 pm

Scrabbler

So far (knock on wood) I have not been summoned to the ED

I love vacuuming.

12:06 pm

jaianniah

Are all of you done with this stinker?

12:06 pm

Scrabbler

I just hit 50 words.

12:06 pm

dcseain

well, thank you, red. hurting a bit less, though coughing and laughing and sneezing are still hard, as the bone's not full knit, though it's externally healed

12:06 pm

dcseain

12:06 pm

dcseain

i have 39 to go

12:07 pm

Yay for Tom. How nice that this is getting farther behind for Tom & you.

12:07 pm

I will keep searching for a while then use the list then beg for clues.

12:08 pm

12:09 pm

Scrabbler

My sister spent the night here and we are watching our hapless Buffalo Bills play the slighter more hapless Cleveland Browns, although if we lose then we are more hapless.

12:09 pm

rururocks

both those teams suck

12:09 pm

jaianniah

LOL!

12:10 pm

rururocks

although Cleveland is imploding right now

12:10 pm

jaianniah

At least none of you are Cub fans like me...

12:11 pm

Scrabbler

TY for making me face reality, Ruru. I just wish a Buffalo team (Bills or Sabres) could win a championship for this city. My father would be thrilled as would many old-time, loyal fans.

12:11 pm

jaianniah

you cannot callit being a fan, exactly, more like a masochisitc obsession with the impossible, like Don Quixote

12:11 pm

redturtlehead

I would be thrilled. I am a Bills fan.

12:12 pm

lshult

hey gang...starting late today....hows the grid looking?

12:15 pm

Scrabbler

Retirement seems farther and farther away as I get older.

12:16 pm

dcseain

no, red, but i'm applying for others, including one that i'm recommened for by a current employee with Novell's BSM division, which i used to work for

12:16 pm

12:16 pm

Scrabbler

Good luck, Seain.

2:15 pm

bunnyvicious

I knwo what you mean, I let mine go a bit this year too. The coons took off with my drip hoses and I'm not big on standing there to water. Looks like we are gonna have an early freeze too. Maybe next year?

7:33 pm

kje

the other soup is roasted butternut squash and sage

7:34 pm

lil*monkey

7:34 pm

lbdawger

oooh, both sound delish! Hubz made minestrone, yummers

7:35 pm

rururocks

I would recommend either dry gewurztraminer or a fairly rich chardonnay for the butternut squash soup.

7:35 pm

Nef

the chardonnay would go nice with the butternut squash

7:35 pm

gapeach

Evening y'all. I have a friend here helping with the puzzle...(I'm trying to get her hooked on it).

lbdawger

Hi BR

7:36 pm

rururocks

I would go Sauvignon Blanc or Sancerre with the other.... reds won't do well unless you get a pretty Pinot Noir or Beaujolais.. I would recommend the Chateau de Segries Tavel Rose 2008 with the meal.

7:36 pm

gapeach

Hi there, BabbleRabble. Hope you're well.

Are you a computer maven, lbd?

7:50 pm

kje

7:52 pm

lbdawger

7:54 pm

lbdawger

they'll learn how to use email, word processing, surf the internet, download pictures. stuff like that, and some maintenance stuff, like defragging

7:54 pm

o-o

Thanks for doing that, ibd. I am sure they appreciate it.

7:55 pm

kje

ok, recipe in profile and icon pic is the soup pic

7:56 pm

lbdawger

it's my pleasure to work with these folks. We're all veterans and we have our stories, so it's nice for them to be able to come to a place that's going to be safe for them to express themselves.

7:58 pm

lbdawger

kje, that recipe really does sound good and hearty

7:58 pm

kje

no, no specs in dallas... houston and austin areas only in TX

I need tochange to the new keyboard as this one sticks like hell, but I don't want to do it until me and Beloved have stopped smoking (not sure when that will be and suspect, since he's achieved it before, he'll do it far easier than I will).

10:08 pm

Jacula

Well done, bigred.

10:08 pm

snags

Jacula, when my husband died, for some reason I just found i didn't want a cigarette anymore, even though he had quit several years before me.

10:09 pm

Minveryork

Helllo snags! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid

10:09 pm

snags

So, I would take two cigarettes out to tje cemetery, lite them both, put then on the ground, and give him hell for leaving me

10:09 pm

snags

Never did smoke againl.

10:09 pm

snags

Hi minveryok

10:10 pm

DR1965

Hi Snags

10:10 pm

snags

SO, my point is, you will quit when u feel like itl.

10:10 pm

Minveryork

Did your husband die of lung cancer snags? My hubby smokes and I hate it! I wish that he would quit as well

10:11 pm

snags

No, Min, he had a massive stroke and I never talked to him again

10:11 pm

DR1965

is the si6 a normal word?

10:11 pm

DR1965

nm- i see it now

10:11 pm

Jacula

snags - thanks for that info, but I don't want him to die before I think maybee I should give up. I guess what youare trying to say is that we either just get fed up with smoking and lose the desire to do it, or something else happens. Or maybe it was a shared addication? It killed him, you let both yourself and him keep on doing it, hence the graveside scene? I understand that scene.

10:11 pm

Minveryork

Guess it was normal enough for you to find so quickly

10:12 pm

DR1965

yes MIn- it was a normal fish

10:12 pm

Yes, I do. Unfortunately, things are not very good between myself and the kids. At this time of my life, i can't fix anything, and I have to live with it. Sorry for the pity party. Oh to happier things.!!

10:21 pm

Jacula

Snags, you are correct in one way, in that only you can decide to take care of your own health in what you drink, smoke, eat etc., but that doesn't mean you are alone.

10:21 pm

Minveryork

An no6/18 is no 4/4 plus to be (thrid person singular)

10:40 pm

Minveryork

The no 6/18 is no plus anagram of spanish six Pinikula

10:40 pm

Jacula

no6/18 means 'thought or intelligence'. NO + vowel + your little female sibling, or short word for her.
