Me too, JBV. I immediately take Echinacea daily til better + suck on zinc lozenges.

5:52 am

Scrabbler

Try for a while and see if you notice a response

5:53 am

Scrabbler

Lots of people I know swear by glucosamine for themselves and their dogs

5:53 am

crosshair

well,my knees don,t sound like a box of rice krispies anymore;0

5:54 am

Scrabbler

My knees are crunchy but don't cause me pain

5:55 am

crosshair

its not the snap crackle that gets you but the pop:/

5:55 am

Scrabbler

Silly Crossy

6:00 am

crosshair

this will make you all think i,m nuts,but today,s brekkie is yougurt with grapes and banana slices mixed in and 2 slices of whole wheat toast with apple jelly;)

6:00 am

Patxxx

I give in. I only need 1 but I don't expect to get back to the grid so can anyone help please. Fo5/18. It's possibly obvious and simple but I've gone grid-blind.

6:01 am

Wolvie

sounds good to me crossy. good morning and hi to all - how is this grid today?

6:02 am

Wolvie

hi Pat - I am sorry I can't help - don't have that yet - but i will look. :-)

6:03 am

Patxxx

ty Wolvie.

6:05 am

Wolvie

found it - enemy plus 2 consonants. sort of looks like it could sound like phone

6:05 am

Wolvie

what monkeys can't do in the AM. :-)

6:07 am

crosshair

got it ty wolvie

6:07 am

Wolvie

yw. :-)

6:10 am

Scrabbler

Hi Pat + Wolvie.

6:10 am

Wolvie

heya scrabs! how goes the battle?

6:12 am

crosshair

the mrs has cut me off bacon:( just 4 measly slices a week,so i save them for a single day;)

6:12 am

Wolvie

Oh no! that is awful crossy - i take it you went (ahem) hog wild? ;-)

6:13 am

crosshair

lets just say that it is catching up with me

6:14 am

Wolvie

seriously, I am sorry to hear that. I just couldn't resist the bad pun. I hope everything gets sorted out. :-)

6:15 am

Patxxx

How could I miss that? Ty again Wolvie. I have spent all my NOT spare time on this grid and now I have to scoot round demented trying to catch up. Babble should be listed as an addiction. It's lunchtime here and I still haven't had brekkie. If I get back early I won't have a grid to do. Boo Hoo! I signed up to Iron Sudoku but they seemed very very distrustful of me when I asked questions in the chog. Usually good at sudoku but they suggested try the easy one as if I were simple. Hey oh, don't really care what they think of me but might look for some of you to fix any queries I might have. Fantastic fireworks!!! Didn't frighten the animals either.

6:15 am

crosshair

oh,not to worry nothing serious,but it is time to make some healty changes before scrabbs hires a hit man to just come here and shoot me

6:15 am

Wolvie

Congrats Patxx!

6:16 am

crosshair

yaa for pat!!

6:16 am

Wolvie

scrabs might just do that, so it is a good idea. :-)

6:16 am

Scrabbler

Yay pat!

6:17 am

Norma

congrats pat ***

6:17 am

Scrabbler

Crossy, your egg + bacon intake is rather worrisome, more so the bacon. Imagine the bacon landing directly into your coronary arteries.

6:17 am

Wolvie

hi Norma

6:18 am

crosshair

now,if you think your gonna cut my egg intake down,you have another thing coming,but i and poaching and or boiling them,no fried

6:18 am

Trifioso

good morning babble friends!

6:18 am

Wolvie

now me - i would trade eggs for bacon. :-)

6:18 am

crosshair

howdy trif;))

6:19 am

Trifioso

okay, hate to start off on a pissy note, but you will not BELIEVE what someone said to me yesterday!

6:19 am

crosshair

?

6:19 am

Trifioso

I am participating in a group at church called "8 who ate" where rotating groups of us get together to share a meal

6:19 am

Nef

Morning everybody. I love bacon and eggs too, crossy; but I always look at that bacon before cooking it and think that *that* is what my tummy fat ight look like!

6:20 am

Wolvie

hi trif and nef

6:20 am

Wolvie

uh oh - i sense a jon and kate moment

6:20 am

Trifioso

this month is my turn to host, and a "church lady" was kind enough to say -- right to my face -- "well, we aren't going to be able to call it 8 who ate when we are at your house, as you are only ONE, so we won't be 8 at table, just seven, as you aren't a couple, you are by yourself" - honestly, she could NOT have pointed it out more.

6:21 am

Nef

hi Wolvie

6:21 am

Wolvie

pretty rude

6:21 am

Trifioso

rag rag rave, now we can all laugh about it, and get over it.....love having you guys to let this stuff out to!

6:21 am

Nef

HOW TOTALLY RUDE, Trifi!!

6:21 am

Wolvie

amazing that so called church folks could be so nasty

6:22 am

Nef

did you smack her upside the head for that?

6:22 am

Trifioso

I am going to focus negative attention on this for like, five more minutes lately, and then I am going to forget it and get on with my day....that's my plan, anyway!

6:22 am

crosshair

id put a pet on the table beside her and say,there we go,now we are 8

6:22 am

Trifioso

EXCELLENT crossy!

6:22 am

Wolvie

good deal trif - ri** above her

6:22 am

Wolvie

;-) crossy

6:22 am

Trifioso

argh = phone - brb. HOpe it's not HER

6:23 am

crosshair

Or,you could say there are 8 because you brought 3..your m8,yourself and your snooty attitude

6:24 am

NonnieLight

lol crossy and good morning all

6:24 am

Wolvie

ooh - even better. :-)

6:24 am

crosshair

now we move on,this is a very nice grid so far trif;))

6:24 am

Wolvie

hi nonnie

6:25 am

crosshair

i could tell you trif how my evil,evil wife has cut me back to 4!!! slices of bacon a week;(

6:25 am

Scrabbler

What a nice Christian woman, Trif. Pfffft at her!

6:25 am

Scrabbler

Hi Trif, Nonnie, Nef

6:25 am

crosshair

(i hide a jar of bacon bits for emergencies)..shhhh

6:25 am

Nef

Hi Scrabs. How are you this AM?

6:26 am

Wolvie

i hope you make the bits yourself - the store bought stuff is worse than homemade. ;-)

6:26 am

Scrabbler

I would rathre crawl back into bed for a few hrs--another night of not so good sleep.

6:26 am

crosshair

i have to buy the store ones,the wife would know the split second if i tried to do up bacon for bacon bits:/

6:28 am

Nef

I hear you, Scrabs. DH doesn't cough at all ALL day long; as soon as he lays down, he starts coughing (and I have to get up and get the cough medicine for him! --he has MS)

6:30 am

Nef

Oops! Time for work! Happy Babbling All! Have a great day!

6:30 am

Nef

<poof>

6:30 am

NonnieLight

bye bye nef

6:30 am

NonnieLight

I need to get a move on also. Take care all.

6:31 am

crosshair

6:31 am

Scrabbler

Bye nef & Nonnie

6:32 am

Wolvie

bye nef and nonnie

6:32 am

Wolvie

6:50 am

Trifioso

I actually just ordered a new microscope set online for my kiddos for christmas, scrabbler - they needed an upgrade from the kiddie version....

6:50 am

Scrabbler

Done with morning milking session, Wolvie?

6:50 am

crosshair

just pop one of those ones they put in the chest scrabbs so it only has to be dome once and start the caffiene flowing;)

6:50 am

Trifioso

I had one when I was a kid, and we LOOOOOVED in

6:50 am

Wolvie

yep. :-)

6:51 am

Scrabbler

Good for you, Trif

6:52 am

Trifioso

were you always interested in sciences yourself, scrabbler?

6:53 am

Scrabbler

Yep, science + math. Read everything I could when I was a kid, and still do. Human body & mind are fascinating.

6:53 am

Trifioso

so, going into medicine was a natural progression for you?

6:53 am

Scrabbler

I would sit high in huge maple tree in our front yard, read books, and look out at the world.

6:54 am

Trifioso

my mom has a living room with really deep window sills - I would tuck up in one, close the drapes, and be in my own little reading world....still love thinking about that

6:54 am

JBV

hey, scrabs, you are invited to visit here and sit in our tree house in the giant maple in our backyard - I haven't been up there in a while myself

6:54 am

Scrabbler

Well, it was for my mother, Trif. I think I have ended up the in the right place, for now. I often think what I am best suited for.

6:54 am

Wolvie

hi JBV

6:54 am

hego

Morning all

6:54 am

JBV

hi again

6:55 am

I would love to, JBV. I love trees, have my favorites in so many places.

6:55 am

Scrabbler

hi Hego

6:55 am

JBV

hi Trif - how'd it go with the teacher meeting?

6:55 am

hego

Funny, I used to sit in a tree and read as a kid also.

6:55 am

Trifioso

we took down our old tree house just a few weeks ago, as it was no longer safe, and we are going to build a new one this spring, in a different copse - I can't wait!

6:56 am

Trifioso

teacher meeting went fine, jbv, thanks.

6:56 am

JBV

they have tree house hotels in some places - sounds fascinating

6:56 am

hego

Ivory tower people maybe.

6:56 am

6:59 am

crosshair

lol,your tree house/book stories made me think of my childhood discovery of reading..all those new worlds,all the new adventures.hehe i dont think i left the library from aged 8-14 lol

6:59 am

Trifioso

interesting, but not surprising, that so many of us babblers were childhood reading fanatics....

6:59 am

Anniebrook

The library was my favorite place when I was a young child

7:00 am

JBV

yep, I remember loving the library when I was a kid -

7:00 am

crosshair

im still a reading fanatic,never mind childhood

7:00 am

crosshair

i usually have 3 books going at any given time

7:01 am

JBV

me too, cross, one in each place where I might want to sit down and grab a moment of peaceful quiet

7:02 am

Wolvie

we love to read - go to the library all the time -and still can't stop buying books. :-)

7:02 am

hego

Gosh, have you all bought back a memory. When I discovered the library I tthought I was in heaven.

7:02 am

Anniebrook

I also have at least 2 books going at the same time and one waiting in the wings

7:02 am

crosshair

lol jbv..i reading clive cussler now...a mans man type of author you can almost smell the jack daniels and feel the salt spray of the ocean storms;))

7:02 am

JBV

I remember trying to calculate how many books there were in the library, how much time it would take me to read them all... :)

7:02 am

hego

Whole new worlds. It was great.

7:03 am

Trifioso

I have to try to avoid bookstores, like a wino avoids a bar...thank GOD for libraries!

7:03 am

Anniebrook

Trif, yes but there is Amazon and barnes and noble on the internet calling, calling

7:03 am

crosshair

i did that jbv..you can read 10,000 books on average if you read 2 per week

7:03 am

JBV

glad there's something for everyone out there, crossy

7:04 am

Trifioso

library sales, annie me love, and yard sales.....

7:04 am

crosshair

and live to 90

7:04 am

Trifioso

I downloaded the list of all the novels that won the pulitzer for literature and tried to read all the novels - still plowing through, with breaks now and then

7:05 am

Anniebrook

library and yard sales are wonderful for picking up book

7:05 am

Anniebrook

s

7:05 am

Trifioso

and, I must confess, I never did make it through Ulysses - I try, again and again, but Joyce beats me every time.

7:05 am

JBV

but sometimes the stars align and you find the time, the motivation, and the right book all at once - this summer I finally read War and Peace - the best reading experience of my life

7:06 am

JBV

I fell in love with Tolstoy -

7:06 am

crosshair

lol@ war and peach,as a recal the author takes 85 pages to describe a dress!

7:07 am

crosshair

peace

7:07 am

wisejade

lol

7:07 am

crosshair

lol@peach

7:07 am

JBV

yes, each moment is a treasure, crossy, worth rereading - the man was a genius

7:07 am

Trifioso

war and peach...hmmm - plotline?

7:07 am

crosshair

well it is in the top 10 list

7:07 am

crosshair

its kinda fuzzy atm trif;))))))

7:08 am

Trifioso

georgia goes to battle over fruit rights?

7:08 am

Trifioso

lol crossy!

7:08 am

JBV

LOL, Trif :)

7:08 am

Anniebrook

Anna Karenina is a favorite

7:09 am

Trifioso

just want you all to know - it is pelting rain, and my car is parked in the garage, at last, due to my herculean efforts yesterday. ahem. I RULE

7:09 am

JBV

yes, Annie, I read that recently also - I remember thinking why did they make us read this in HS? it is a mature woman's story

7:09 am

crosshair

as far as canadiana goes, farley mowatt is one of my favorites;0

7:09 am

JBV

same as Madame Bovary - you have to have a certain experience to really appreciate it - generations of students have been turned off to great literature by premature exposure

7:09 am

crosshair

raining like hell here as well trif

7:10 am

Anniebrook

The sun is shining here

7:10 am

Trifioso

I would put To Kill A Mockingbird in that category as well. somehow they think because Scout is a girl, that the book is appropriate for youngsters. um - no.

7:10 am

crosshair

the only one that really gripped me in the school lists was lord of the flies as i recall

7:10 am

Anniebrook

A Tale of Two Cities and Shakespeare was the reading assignments in my years at HS

7:11 am

JBV

well folks, the real world is calling - see you all later

7:11 am

crosshair

i mean asking 12 year olds to disect and interpet moby dick can turn anyone off of books for a bit

7:11 am

Trifioso

oh, lord of the flies scared the hell out of me in school! the idea of kids running wild like that!

7:11 am

hego

Bye jbv

7:11 am

Trifioso

yes, crossy, once they stop snorting at the idea of dissecting dick....

7:11 am

Anniebrook

bye jbv

7:12 am

crosshair

all the boys loved the book trif,we all just imagine running around an island like that

7:13 am

Trifioso

I am trying to remember if primo liked it - I think he did. He just finished reading the scarlet letter for ap english, and he and all his lad friends were basically putting their thumbs in their eyes by the end. I LOVE the scarlet letter, however....

7:15 am

Aloyisius

.. back.. today is garbage/recycle day. Forgot last week, didn't want to miss this week.. ah, now for some Babble time

7:18 am

Trifioso

aloy, do you think you will go see the movie precious? I wondered, since you worked in an inner city school at the start of your career....

7:19 am

Aloyisius

hi Trif.. yes, I've seen the previews with S. Bullock.. and I do want to see that movie.. have you seen it?

7:19 am

Trifioso

no, not that one - the movie about the girl in the inner city....

7:19 am

Trifioso

s. bullock is in the one about the young man

7:19 am

hego

Well, have to go now. Gone for the day. Won't be able to fnish. Ah shucks.

7:20 am

hego

Bye now

7:20 am

Trifioso

rats hego! how close did you get?

7:20 am

Aloyisius

oh, I have the movies mixed up.. Oprah previewed Precious.. yes, I'll see that one too.. one of these days.. hard to watch, I'll bet.. but well done

7:20 am

Wolvie

bye hego

7:20 am

hego

About halfway.

7:20 am

Aloyisius

aw, hagd anyway hego!

7:21 am

hego

And POOF!

7:21 am

Trifioso

I am thinking I might go buy a ticket, to be financially supportive, but might wait until it comes out on dvd to actually see it. I think I would have a hard time watching such a difficult movie in public

7:21 am

Aloyisius

even in the dark of a theater?

7:22 am

Anniebrook

hi jm c

7:22 am

Trifioso

I had spoken with a couple of people who saw previews, and some had bad audience experiences - nervous laughter when there shouldn't be, people talking throughout - not my kind of thing. and I might need to take a break during it and walk some of it off. I get sucked in, you see, and have a hard time keeping distance

7:23 am

Trifioso

congrats, pinny! lovely to have you aboard!

7:23 am

Aloyisius

ah so, Trif.. I understand

7:23 am

PinnyPoppins

7:30 am

jmcnrick

7:41 am

Trifioso

we are getting all sorts of creative here, let me tell you! Secondo has a Wii, and it takes SD cards. So, I am loading up images from the Lourve, cool photos, etc. on this card. That way, when people are here for dinner - like my church group tonight - instead of a big black rectangle being all hella boring on the wall, great images can scroll silently by.

7:43 am

Trifioso

i didn't have that one! thanks wolvie!

Haz1558

Hello, autumn, glad the clue helped.

the transformation game lets you enter the game with a question about your life, and then you get to walk your path on 4 levels. Physical, emotional, mental and spiritual. You meet challenges, obstacles, blessings, angels, and you can formulate an answer after the game is through.

Joanne123

omg atal.. loved stepfather but didn't find out he was gone til after a week

5:43 pm

Joanne123

he took care of my mom

5:44 pm

Atalante

I disliked him utterly until about 3 or 4 years ago, when he finally admitted he'd been a shit to me as a kid, for various reasons that I can understand now but obviously couldn't then. After that, we've got on better. Not brilliantly, but better

5:45 pm

Joanne123

6:42 pm

hurshy

when they did an ultrasound before my husband's gallbladder removal, they saw a mass in or on his kidney. so he had to go in for a CT scan yesterday. they were hoping they could see fatty tissue or something so they would know it was benign.

6:42 pm

crosshair

scwabby my weekly allotment of bacon is due tomorrow;))

6:43 pm

Scrabbler

So, results?

6:43 pm

bookwyrmish

hurshy, crossing my fingers

6:43 pm

hurshy

but the radiologist couldn't figure out what it was. his PCP called him to tell him he will next see a urology surgeon and decide about PET scan vs biopsy vs maybe just removing it?

6:43 pm

Minveryork

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

6:43 pm

crosshair

crossing mine as well hurshy

6:43 pm

hurshy

they said it is only 1.4 cm, so i wonder if they just can't tell because it is so small?

6:44 pm

Scrabbler

I bought all of my Thanksgiving dinner stuff today, except for pies. Family will be at my house this year as I am on call and must be down here close to hospital if I am called in.

Hi all new entrants

6:45 pm

Minveryork

I got the dh word already Bugsaw,but thanks for clue

6:45 pm

hurshy

but they seem to think it is solid, not a cyst, and apparently most solid kidney masses are cancerous. however, when they are that small, they apparently usually can be removed and then you're fine. no chemo or radiation bc that type of cancer doesn't respond to it.

6:45 pm

DR1965

HI Scrabs, Crossy, Hurshy, Min, Bugs, lurkers

6:45 pm

bookwyrmish

Hey, DR

6:45 pm

Hello Scrabbler&all who entered while I stepped away

Hi DR!!

6:46 pm

hurshy

but if it had metastasized, then that would mean he had a 5% chance of survival.

6:46 pm

bookwyrmish

hurshy, I don't know about kidneys and masses, but I know that many of my friends with cancer have found that it really isn't the bugaboo dx it used to be. Thanks heavens for modern medicine

6:46 pm

DR1965

then we are hoping it hasnt if it is cancer

6:46 pm

hurshy

but sc, am i right in thinking that if it is that small it can't possibly have metastasized?

6:47 pm

Scrabbler

Not enough info at all to presume metastasis + poor prognosis.

6:47 pm

hurshy

well of course i wouldn't PRESUME the worst, i was more hoping to figure it could NOT be the worst.

6:49 pm

Scrabbler

If no other masses were seen (liver/spleen/nodes) than that is good.

6:50 pm

hurshy

as far as i know, no others were seen, but i don't know if they've... looked.

6:50 pm

Scrabbler

i.e. if metastatic disease is present then it is unlikely that a single mass is present

6:51 pm

DR1965

Bugs- are you off all next week or just a few days?

6:51 pm

DR1965

or not at all

6:51 pm

Scrabbler

A young guy--#1 suspicion = testicular cancer. Have him check the fellas now.

6:52 pm

hurshy

you mean that the kidney one could be secondary, having metastasized from elsewhere?

6:52 pm

hurshy

i doubt he would know how to check himself for that...

6:53 pm

Bugsaw

DR I get next Thursday off but it is just in my district. We celebrate Thanksgiving in October in Canada

6:53 pm

Scrabbler

Primary kidney cancer at his age is far less likely than testicular cancer metastasizing to kidney, but latter usually goes to nodes around aorta.

6:53 pm

hurshy

oh dear, that sounds bad.

6:53 pm

Joanne123

scrabs what about pains and aches in the lower mid section for a woman???

6:54 pm

bookwyrmish

2 to go, ee 5/10 and f0 5/18

6:54 pm

But, in all liklihood this mass is nothing worrisome at all and is an "incidental" finding.

6:54 pm

Scrabbler

Many possibilities, Joanne.

Andree - munching on a chicken wing?? You do know that dogs shouldn't eat cooked chicken bones? Or is it a raw one?

8:03 pm

Andree

its raw and he has one every day

8:04 pm

Jacula

Poultry bones of any kind are dangerous, especially when cooked, because they can splinter and cut the gut.

8:06 pm

Andree

no i would never do that to my little angel, he does love his lunch and it is raw and great for his teeth which are like razors

All authors seem to hit upon a pet word or phrase during the writing of a manuscript - James Herbert's was 'umbrageous' (shady) in this book.

8:12 pm

Jacula

'Bye Andree.

8:13 pm

Another meaning, used here in the UK Midlands for 'umbrageous' is 'to easily take offence' from the the term 'take umbrage'.

8:17 pm

Minveryork

I'm well now that I have a working computer again. I was w/out Babble for a week or so; major withdrawal

8:17 pm

Jacula

'Trumpet blasts'? I hope that doesn't mean red has bad wind?

8:18 pm

stidmama

that explains why I didn't see you Min, but I figured it was my peculiar schedule... glad you're here!

8:18 pm

Jacula

Min - you mean to say you didn't get back into real life and clean your house/apartment etc?

8:19 pm

Jacula

No idea who Sam Adams is, Red.:(

8:20 pm

stidmama

Sam Adams = Budweiser for the discerning palate

8:21 pm

redshoes

More flagellant than flatulent, Jac. Well, actually, not so flagellant, either.

8:21 pm

Jacula

LOL, red.

8:21 pm

Minveryork

Jacula, I actually did clean my house last weekend. I have a workshop tomorrow, so no cleaning tomorrow

8:21 pm

Jacula

stid - the words Budweiser and palate do not go together.

8:21 pm

Jacula

Min - LOL.

8:22 pm

stidmama

rofl Jac! actually, I don't like beer much at all...

8:22 pm

redshoes

true Jac. I'm generally a microbrew gal (and Miller if I'm going "low-brow"), but I like this Octoberfest.

8:22 pm

Minveryork

I am done! I have fireworks! fo5/18 was my last word

8:23 pm

stidmama

YAY Min!

8:23 pm

Stid - it's like putting Jameson's whiskey and Jack Daniels in the same sentence. Not sure if it's a paradox or an oxymoron.

8:23 pm

well, Tom is home and I am down to 19, I think I will list and let him and stidkid#2 finish supper.

You like Irish whiskey then, red?

Jacula

Or do you prefer Scotch (whisky)?

8:28 pm

I like most forms of whiskey. =D I was actually trying to decide between beer and bourbon for my beverage of the evening

8:28 pm

Minveryork

The 1st co6/24 word is co plus he 4/5 word stidmama

8:28 pm

Jacula

bourbon is not whiskey or whisky.

8:29 pm

redshoes

yes it is

8:30 pm

redshoes

bourbon is Kentucky whiskey.

8:30 pm

torgone

SHOES!!!1

8:31 pm

redshoes

TOR!!!

8:31 pm

Jacula

No, it is not, red. Bourbon's primary ingredient is corn, whereas both Irish and Scottish whiskies have barley as the primary ingredient.

8:32 pm

redshoes

I didn't say it was Irish or Scottish, it's Kentucky-ish. ;^)

8:32 pm

Jacula

Irish whiskey uses a mix of malted and unmalted barley, whereas the Scot's version uses only malted barley.

8:32 pm

stidmama

firewords

8:33 pm

Southern Comfort is also 'Kentuckyish' is it not?

redshoes

Actually, I guess SoCo is contributed to Louisiana and/or Memphis.

8:37 pm

Jacula

Southern Comfort aka 'The Velvet Hammer' (I can assure you that you will only feel the iron the velvert enclosed by the next day) is distilled from grain crops and was first introduced into the USA by an Irish bartender. It's hootch, plain ad simple.

8:38 pm

redshoes

ahhhh hooch. who doesn't love hooch? heh.

8:38 pm

Jacula

The ones who hate hooch are the ones someone opens the curtains to early for the next day (about 5pmish)? LOL

8:39 pm

torgone

Mmmm .. house smells good .. a pot of macaroni and ch6/24 just about ready to come out of the oven ..

8:39 pm

whiskey in general is made from a grain mash. the grain could be barley, rye, wheat, corn, etc.

8:40 pm

*Fancies macaroni ch6/24 right now and so scoots over the Atlantic to Torg's house.'

8:40 pm

8:43 pm

Jacula

I'm making that dish myself at the end of next week for my son when I will be cooking a bacon joint and golden potato pie (potatoes, cheese, onion, butter & salt and pepper). Son doesn't like the potato pie, so I do him macaron ch6/24 to go with it, and always have to pinch a bit for myself.

8:43 pm

Minveryork

Hello lbdawger! How are you? Welcome to the puzzle!

8:43 pm

lbdawger

Hello, Min! i'm doing well, and yourself?

8:44 pm

Jacula

Years ago, one of my son's friends would only agree to stay overnight if I cooked him the MC dish. LOL

8:45 pm

redshoes

mmmmm sounds scrumptious, Jac!

8:45 pm

Jacula

I've noticed that it's only the UK, the Greeks and the Italians who don't refer to that dish as macaroni AND ch6/24. Interesting.

8:46 pm

Jacula

Red - it is!

8:46 pm

Minveryork

I am doing well lbdawger. Was babbleless for a week, but now I am back because my computer was fixed.

Recipe for my Golden Potato pie: GOLDEN POTATO PIE (serves 2)

Ingredients: Approximately 450g potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced

50g Cheddar

1 small onion, finely sliced

40g of butter or margarine

Salt and White Pepper

Method:

Preheat oven to 190ÂºC. Grease an ovenproof dish with some of the butter or
margarine. Arrange an overlapping layer of potato slices on the bottom. Dot
with butter, sprinkle on salt and pepper and then a layer of onion, followed by
a layer of cheese. Continue in this way until the dish is full, finishing with a
layer of potato, seasoning and butter topped with cheese. Place a lid on the
dish and cook it on full power in the microwave for 10 minutes to soften the
potatoes. Then put the dish in the oven and cook for 50 minutes at 190ÂºC.
Test with a skewer to make sure the potatoes are soft then cook for a further
10 minutes WITHOUT THE LID, until the top is golden brown.

Serve with bacon or gammon steak.
