The grid is not too bad, have only just started though.

5:45 am

Brookie

Hold on a minute. I've been on babble since 2007, and this is my first time hearing about Morewords. Yikes!

5:45 am

lynxxx

Brookie

Head in sand, that's where.

5:46 am

zoozzoom

You're obviously babbling at the wrong time, Brookie.

5:46 am

lynxxx

I use Morewords before Lickety - every day

5:46 am

Brookie

OMG, I just checked out the website. That's awesome!

5:46 am

Haz1558

When you can't find a word, and you don't want to ask for a lcue, either www.morewords.com or a2zwordfinder.com are very useful.

5:47 am

lynxxx

Glamorous Fabrics or Morewords?

5:47 am

Brookie

a2z???? Another one? This is more than my mind can handle.

5:47 am

zoozzoom

lol

5:47 am

Haz1558

lynxx, you can have the Glam fabrics commission if I can stick with the morewords kickback.

5:48 am

Haz1558

Morewords is my favourite, I must admit.

5:48 am

Haz1558

Poor Brookie. There you were thinking we had amazing vocabs and all the while morewords is at our back.

5:49 am

zoozzoom

hehe

5:49 am

Brookie

This is just rocking my world a bit too much.

5:50 am

Haz1558

I'm trying to think of any other outrages in babble you might not know about.

5:50 am

Brookie

It's like I've been living a lie.

5:51 am

Haz1558

Maybe we should have let you live with the illusion a little longer.

5:51 am

Haz1558

You know about Santa, don't you?

5:52 am

zoozzoom

LOL

5:52 am

Brookie

Oh yes, Santa! I've already mailed my list to him.

5:52 am

Haz1558

He LOVES babble, but doesn't chat often.

5:52 am

lynxxx

are the japanese immigrants in this grid?

5:52 am

Brookie

(You're very funny, Haz!)

5:52 am

5:54 am

Jivingjenny0

5:54 am

5:55 am

lynxxx

5:55 am

Brookie

At 118 words. Once I get halfway through, I allow myself to use Lickety. Almost there!

5:56 am

Haz1558

You need to pick up the pace, lynxxx.

5:56 am

lynxxx

2 glasses of wine - not going to happen Haz

5:56 am

Brookie

5:56 am

zoozzoom

5:57 am

Brookie

5:58 am

Haz1558

5:58 am

Brookie

Revolution would be nice.

5:59 am

Haz1558

Anyway, I must leave again. zooz will be trying to zoom, Brookie will be spinning like a top with the wonderment of morewords and lynxxx... See you later!

6:02 am

6:03 am

Brookie

Got it, thanks!

6:04 am

zoozzoom

don`t forget to plural.

6:04 am

Brookie

Did it, thanks.

6:05 am

Brookie

So, what feature on morewords does everyone use the most?

6:08 am

zoozzoom

when i use it i just put the first two letters followed by a dash for the amount of letters i need for the word..thats it.

6:08 am

lynxxx

If I have a probable start - say 3 letters - I will search using those on 4/5/6/7/8 letter words etc

6:09 am

Brookie

Thanks - that's very helpful!

6:18 am

lynxxx

I think I am kidding myself that I will find more words. You win Zooz! Goodnight, off to bed zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

6:19 am

zoozzoom

We will call it a draw, Lynxxx :-)....sweet dreams.

6:25 am

8:41 am

Mom

8:41 am

Mom

do you have Thanksgiving?

8:42 am

zoozzoom

No we don`t , Mom, but i had turkey yesterday anyway..lol

8:43 am

Mom

I wasn't sure. Glad you had turkey :-)

8:45 am

Mom

it is so quiet here, everyone must be out shopping :-)

8:45 am

zoozzoom

Not long now, i did mine a couple of weeks ago.

8:45 am

dfmchfhf

Pre-blanked tilese are U on top, E and O on bottom?

8:46 am

Mom

**sigh** Christmas is going to stink this year, the boys just want money

8:46 am

dfmchfhf

<-- at work, can't be shopping! :oO

8:46 am

zoozzoom

Thats correct, DFM.

8:46 am

Mom

yes dfm

8:46 am

Mom

sure you can dfm, online shopping :-)

8:47 am

Mom

I will have to rank my brain for something for them, they have to something under the tree to open

8:47 am

zoozzoom

Thats a shame, Mom. Most teenagers just want money instead of presents.

8:48 am

Mom

oh Zoozz, they are 22 and 26.

8:48 am

Mom

the 26 year old is getting married next June and the 22 year old is graduating college on the 18th of Dec.

8:48 am

Christine

When my daughter wanted only money for Christmas, she always had a few small gifts, from the pets (and her much;loved Panda).

8:49 am

8:50 am

Mom

8:50 am

zoozzoom

Hello, Christine,Msideb & Nono.

Good morning, all

8:50 am

msideb01

8:51 am

zoozzoom

oh dear, did we have a troll today then?

8:51 am

NonoNanette

goodness, I havent encountered a troll in quite some time

8:52 am

Mom

oh man! I missed the troll

8:52 am

msideb01

We had several yesterday, one of whom was very persistent. I've never seen the patience of Babblers tried so much.

8:52 am

Mom

**note to self** review yesterday's chat log :-)

8:52 am

NonnieLight

Hello all!

8:52 am

NonoNanette

glad I wasnt here at the time

8:52 am

NonoNanette

hi Ninnie

8:52 am

NonnieLight

lol nono

8:52 am

Mom

8:52 am

Atalante

that was nothing, msideb!

8:52 am

zoozzoom

Hello, Nonnie.

8:53 am

Mom

good afternoon Ata, how are you?

8:53 am

Atalante

coooold

8:53 am

Mom

ohhhh, sorry to hear that

8:54 am

msideb01

I haven't been playing that long, but it was the worst I've seen yet. Let's just hope it's over and done with... smoother Babbling today I hope!

8:55 am

Mom

I take it Dr. God snuffed them out

8:55 am

Atalante

they were really more amusing than nasty

8:55 am

NonoNanette

with schools on thanksgiving break here in the states it might persist for a day or two

8:55 am

Mom

they are funny

8:56 am

Mom

I seem to learn new words from a lot of them

8:58 am

trentsnana

what is a troll?

8:58 am

MollyL

I saw some of that troll crap last night. I had to leave it to those with more patience than I. I have no tolerance for people like that.

8:58 am

Christine

Was that Alice and OMG?

8:58 am

Atalante

and by the way, I know quite a few people who use the big te words, so they aren't completely hopeless

8:59 am

MollyL

TNana, people on chat forums refer to troublemakers as trolls. People who log on just to be annoying or break the rules.

8:59 am

Mom

Hi Trentsnana, ((Molly))

8:59 am

NonoNanette

Molly, when the trolls get really bad I just make my window smaller so i dont have to see the chog

8:59 am

trentsnana

Hi Mom - oh, okay Molly, thnx

9:00 am

NonnieLight

I do the same, nono.

9:00 am

trentsnana

I only saw one yesterday - kept typing RAZZFART or something like that...

9:00 am

MollyL

Great idea Nono, thanks.

9:00 am

Mom

Loved it when Nutty was playing Babble, she had a lot of fun with the trolls

9:00 am

Atalante

it's fun poking the trolls

9:01 am

Atalante

you need really good ones though to have most fun

9:02 am

NonoNanette

yes nutty was good with the trolls, she makes us all laugh and gasp :)

9:02 am

Mom

I remember one group of trolls, their teacher let them use class time to play, they were especially obnoxious

9:02 am

Atalante

yes!

9:03 am

Mom

oh Ata, you remember that group also

9:03 am

Anniebrook

I remember them also...hello everyone

9:03 am

Atalante

ohhhh yes

NonnieLight

We're celebrating today.

9:05 am

9:05 am

Mom

Atalante

9:06 am

NonnieLight

Oh nono...those are the best kind!

9:06 am

Mom

excellent idea Nono

9:06 am

Anniebrook

Hi Ata, I spelt his name wrong

9:07 am

NonoNanette

for sure Nonnie, and it was alovely buffet with turkey, ham, prime rib and salmon along with all the other trimmings. Something to satisfy everyone

9:08 am

Mom

dad keeps wanting to do that, but it would cost him a fortune to take all of us out and I don't mind the cooking

9:08 am

Mom

oh nono, sounds like a feast

9:08 am

NonnieLight

Sounds wonderfully delicious, nono.
I wish we had something like that close by and I would suggest it to the family.

9:08 am

FMitch

9:09 am

NonoNanette

9:10 am

Hello Nono!

Mom

Oh FMitch, that is cold

9:11 am

dfmchfhf

:o/ I le4 the chat for a few minutes and suddenly it's this full?

9:12 am

FMitch

Nothing like some of the temps you US people experience but we did just manage to get over freezing today.

9:12 am

NonnieLight

9:12 am

Anniebrook

hi dfm

9:12 am

NonoNanette

hi dfm

9:13 am

dfmchfhf

it's just barely below zero (Celsius) today -- the worst temperature, it melts the snow and turns it into ice...

9:13 am

FMitch

what makes me smile is that regardle4 of the temp the birds were still bathing/splashing about in it.
Hi dfm.

9:13 am

MollyL

I have a hard time "not cooking" on holidays. The few times we have been invited for Thanksgiving, I did a turkey breast and small amounts of sides so we would have leftovers. Because the turkey sandwich the day after Thanksgiving is what it's all about. : D

9:14 am

Mom

Amen, Molly!

9:14 am

FMitch

lol Molly, same applies for us at Christmas.

9:14 am

Mom

counting the time until lunch

9:14 am

NonoNanette

I will miss that Molly but then again I really dont need it

9:14 am

dfmchfhf

<-- family never quite figured out how to make turkey taste good, doesn't understand all this talk about turkey :o(

9:14 am

MollyL

Oh indeed. The roast beef sandwich the day after Christmas is awesome.

9:15 am

FMitch

drooooool, roast beef sandwich!

9:15 am

MollyL

I have been brining my turkey the past few years. I will never fix a turkey any other way.

9:15 am

NonnieLight

Yes, the le**overs are the best part of all the work the day before.

9:15 am

Mom

love open face roast beef sandwiches

9:16 am

FMitch

love roast beef in any form really :)

9:16 am

dfmchfhf

:o( I'm not gonna be home until after Christmas this year... *sniffle*

9:16 am

Mom

dfmch, get a Honeysuckle turkey with a pop up timer, they are delicious and so moist

9:16 am

NonnieLight

9:16 am

Mom

9:17 am

dfmchfhf

9:19 am

Mom

co-op ... for college?

9:19 am

dfmchfhf

University (Canada distinguishes between University and College... university is more academically oriented, college is more jobplace oriented)

9:20 am

NonnieLight

I guess I better get moving since family is headed this way and I need to get a bird in the oven. Take care all and hope to see you good people later.

9:20 am

9:27 am

dfmchfhf

9:27 am

FMitch

9:27 am

9:27 am

Mom

won't tell sweetie about the cabana boys

9:28 am

FMitch

:)

9:28 am

MollyL

The PB is bound to have a lot of traffic, as the grid has several Black Friday references to trip people up. Grant pointed that out this morning.

9:28 am

Mom

oh yes, sh**

9:29 am

FMitch

ah yes of course there is a lot of s4ing going on today

9:29 am

MollyL

And there are sa5/10 at all the ma5/12

9:31 am

Mom

bye bye FMitch, thanks for providing the cabana boys

9:31 am

FMitch

yvw ;)

9:31 am

Mom

:-)

9:35 am

dfmchfhf

:o/ I've never been this stuck on a grid so early before

9:37 am

FMitch

There is little flow to the words but free association and blind typing worked for me.

9:38 am

MollyL

Sometimes when I look at the grid sideways it helps. : P

9:38 am

Lilecama

ju5's into the grid. hello everyone

9:38 am

MollyL

Fatoosh! Lile is here. Hi Lile.

9:38 am

dfmchfhf

Hi Lile!

9:39 am

Lilecama

:D

9:39 am

dfmchfhf

looking at the grid sideways doesn't work for me, my brain has this annoying habit of rotating/flipping things until they are right-way up.

9:39 am

Lilecama

lile is a phantom in the grid today.

9:40 am

FMitch

Hi Lile.

9:40 am

dfmchfhf

It took me about nine days to be able to distinguish between schwa and the letter e...

9:40 am

Lilecama

the rest of the li's are hiding... :(

9:40 am

Lilecama

lol dfm

9:40 am

MollyL

I love the word schwa. It has a lovely sound.

9:41 am

MollyL

My oldest son is in the grid. Irish spelling of John.

9:41 am

MollyL

We almost have Seamus in there too.

9:42 am

Lilecama

I've tried that name thousands of times, but the grid won't give in

9:42 am

Atalante

Seamus was the dog *sings*

9:43 am

MollyL

It's wacky because some names work. ja4/9 for example.

9:43 am

FMitch

Thought yr keyboard must have frozen up Ata :)

9:43 am

Lilecama

indeed - and lots of her works too...

9:43 am

dfmchfhf

Enable is so silly...

9:43 am

Atalante

just doing 10 things at once

9:44 am

dfmchfhf

Ata, grow a few more hands, that'll help!

9:44 am

FMitch

another babbler is in the grid jo4/10 and Tarzans companion is valid too.

9:44 am

MollyL

Ever notice how women are so good at multi-tasking and men seem to struggle with it?

9:44 am

Lilecama

multi tasking again ata! :)

9:44 am

FMitch

Only 10 things? Are you on a go slow? *grin*

9:44 am

dfmchfhf

but the jo4 is an actual word!

9:44 am

gramma

ja is a girl or woman. not so much the proper na**

9:45 am

MollyL

True dfm, I think if that more as the action than the name.

9:45 am

dfmchfhf

<-- is good at multitasking... :o/

9:45 am

Atalante

I'm baking christmas cake, analysing questionnaires, painting, babbling and starting an assignment. and laughing at sily

9:45 am

gramma

finished if I can help for a few minutes I will.

9:46 am

dfmchfhf

and reading two books at once o.0 silly but fun to do...

9:46 am

MollyL

Speaking of names, it was recently pointed out to me that I could have picked a most excellent name for one of my boys. Jameson. What a cool first name that is.

9:46 am

FMitch

gosh and I am just sitting here enjoying chatting I feel so lazy!

9:46 am

Atalante

FM, did you hear that Bernard Matthews died? Actually on Thanksgiving!!

9:46 am

dfmchfhf

Jame's son? :oO

9:47 am

gramma

I'm quite busy procrastinating

9:47 am

FMitch

No! really?

9:47 am

bichon

sa's at the ma**?

9:47 am

MollyL

Nope, Jameson. Like the Irish whiskey.

9:47 am

Atalante

Realy! What timing!

9:47 am

MollyL

Only problem is, he would end up being called Jamie.

9:47 am

gramma

bichon, is that a real question?

9:47 am

FMitch

the turkeys finally got their vengence.

9:48 am

FMitch

He must have been a good age tho

9:48 am

Atalante

80

9:48 am

FMitch

9:48 am

bichon

9:48 am

gramma

Who was he?

9:48 am

MollyL

I thought Bich was cluing. sa's at the ma4. Everything for le4

9:49 am

Atalante

just giggling madly at the timing!

9:49 am

gramma

9:49 am

Sally-catlover

So do Americans eat the full turkey dinner on the fourth Thursday in November, and then repeat the whole process a month later?

10:31 am

jacq

why is today called black friday?

10:31 am

msideb01

Depends. Some people do Ham for Christmas, some do other things. Personally, yes... again in a month!

10:31 am

FMitch

I believe that Thanksgiving is a bigger deal than Christmas or at least that is what I've been told by US people working over here.

10:31 am

crosshair

it is a day when all americans go bankrupt buying stuff at wal-mart on sale lol

10:31 am

Bash

Called black friday because this is the day companies tend to go "into the black" or become profitable each year.

10:32 am

jacq

ahhhhhhhhhhh

10:32 am

FMitch

and that is crossy off to the PB

10:32 am

jacq

i wondered if it was linked to the great depression or something

10:32 am

jacq

ty

10:32 am

msideb01

As far as turkey goes, Thanksgiving is the day to end all days, indeed, to the turkeys it's the turkeypocalypse.

10:32 am

Bash

It might be depressing... :p

10:32 am

jacq

crossy do that again with some 8 letter words please

10:32 am

Well I guess you have to work off all that food somehow by rushing around and looking for bargains.

10:35 am

jacq

i never go to the shops for the start of the january sa4s i hate crowds and get really claustrophobic

10:36 am

Soodle

I never have any money left for the January sa***...

10:36 am

Bash

shes

10:36 am

FMitch

It used to be that the sa5 were only once a year but now they are all the time.

10:36 am

jacq

it's the same with the xmas food shopping rush, the sh4s are closed for one day

10:36 am

crosshair

we are too deep in a recession to go shopping mad up here,of late we have set it up so everyone gets a single special gift and then a donation is made to a worthy charity of their choice all within a strict budget

10:36 am

dfmchfhf

"50% off every day!"

10:36 am

Bash

ok, slap me silly, been a while since I typed in the wrong box. Sorry.

10:36 am

FMitch

Good chice crossy.

10:37 am

crosshair

join me in the pb bash

10:37 am

jacq

i remember an expose in the papers that the 1/2 price goods were in fact over inflated prior to the reduction and were actually being sold overpriced even with the 50% off

10:37 am

Sally-catlover

We don't buy presents at all, except for little grandson, and usually a subscription (like a year at Kew) for son. Not even for each other. Takes all the angst out!

10:37 am

Bash

:)

10:37 am

crosshair

that is a common practice jacq

10:37 am

jacq

i buy small well considered gifts, i make sure it's something they will use

10:38 am

jacq

yes it is crossy, and since i don't trust business anyway i don't get caught in the frenzy

10:38 am

FMitch

I buy what I need when I can afford to pay for it. No debt or credit cards here.

10:38 am

jacq

businesses

10:38 am

crosshair

yes a well thought out small gift is much better than a large one on the spur of the moment

10:38 am

jacq

same here FM, living costs more than enough anyway without being stupid with money you don't have

10:39 am

Sally-catlover

I know some people think we are sad creatures, but it is a tremendous feeling of relief not to be caught in this Christmas spending spree.

10:39 am

jacq

i agree sally, my grand-daughters will get the most, i am buying their party dresses and shoes to take the pressure off their parents

10:39 am

Shirlockc

can't pay me to go out on black friday

10:39 am

FMitch

Totally agree Sally and none of that leaping round the sh5 at the last min in total panic.

10:40 am

crosshair

i use debit card,since i must have a chequeing acct anyways i set it up so all my bak drafts,money orders,new cheques and a debit card i can use transaction fee free round the world costs me 9 dollars a month

10:40 am

jacq

10:41 am

rubyfoo

hello. I have a few minutes to play while leftovers are heating up

10:42 am

Sally-catlover

Since it has been snowing a little today, I emptied the butchers and have a freezer full now including a joint of lamb. Hey, it was a typo Ata!

Good day, mates!

10:42 am

Nothing wrong with turkey and I can cook them v well but there are so many much more interesting things to eat.

10:42 am

jacq

i love lamb, could eat it every day but am too health conscious

10:42 am

dfmchfhf

mmm... roast la4...

10:42 am

10:46 am

we had our first snow today, but it's only enough to make things very pretty but dangerous

10:47 am

Sally-catlover

I laughed in the butchers today. There were four burley men (be still, my beating heart) all wearing fetching Norwegian-style woolly hats with pom poms hanging down from the ear flaps. It WAS very cold.

10:47 am

POsterior vitreous detachment and optic disc hemorrhage--began abruptly on Nov 3.

I'm in a terrible quandary!

10:50 am

Scrabbler

He SHOULD NOT drive if he is visually impaired. Please go in a separate car, ruby.

10:50 am

yes,cold is one thing..foot and a half of sonw on the road with whiteouts and lake effect crap is quite another..cold is nothing

10:50 am

Sally, rugged, burley, manly men--be still MY heart!

10:50 am

rubyfoo

I will try to hire a driver. He won't let me drive him

10:50 am

crosshair

indeed ruby

10:51 am

jacq

ruby maybe if you point out that he has had a stressful year, and if he has a small prang insurance may not cover him with an eye defect etc

10:51 am

rubyfoo

he is so fragile now since the dog affair

10:51 am

crosshair

we do not want to lose our ruby tuesday in a car crash

10:51 am

Sally-catlover

Good thinking jacq.

10:51 am

Scrabbler

I agree, Cross.

10:52 am

rubyfoo

we had a crash 2 1/2 years ago because he fell asleep at the wheel; he didn't even know what happened but my sternum was fractured by the airbag

10:52 am

Sally-catlover

He had an accident once before didn't he ruby? Or am I being indiscreet? In which case everyone else look away.

10:52 am

Oh, no, Ruby! That is a painful injury!

10:53 am

10:53 am

ruby tell him how exhausting the drive will be and point out how relaxed he will be with another driver

10:53 am

rubyfoo

and it never completely heals

10:53 am

jacq

no it doesn't

10:53 am

Jillyjill

thanks ruby...needed that one...

10:53 am

bichon

why doesn't ever completely heal ruby?

10:53 am

jacq

because it can't ever be fully rested

10:54 am

rubyfoo

because of some combination of cartilege and bone, I think, but I still have pain sometimes

10:54 am

just breathing normally affects the he4ing

Ah! My son has an admirable hat-collection. Including deer-stalkers, chapkas, Norwegian wooly hats, Jamaican Ganja Hats, old German helmets, etc etc etc.... Hes a bit of a hat maniac. I must root out his chapka. Uncool, but cosy....

rubyfoo

that is very funny about your son. Does he have a beret?

1:02 pm

rubyfoo

hi patxxxx

1:03 pm

Soodle

Ruby, he has nearly every headgear known to man. His beret is a blue beret that a soldier friend of mine got while serving with the UN in Lebanon. Hello Pat. Its a nice grid today!

Hi rubyfoo. Nice to be back. I LOVE BABBLE in fact it's become an obsession.

bye soodles

1:05 pm

Patxxx

Hi soodlebum is it really an OK grid because I have to make tea yet and won't have enough time to finish before bed,

1:06 pm

Sally-catlover

Back. Husband suitably prodded. Hi Pat. Bet you have snow in Yorkshire!

1:09 pm

Sally-catlover

OK, must go now. See you all tomorrow.

1:09 pm

Patxxx

NO. Flipping cold tho. In Yorkshire it all depends which side of the pennines you are on. A mile away can be feet deep and we've got none and vive versa. AND may I say it doesn't stop the majority of traffic here but it's the only stories the newspapers like. In the South where for years they haven't had any snow it's a bit different but then you wouldn't expect anything else really.

Hi mightyquin, once drove south on a snowy Xmas Day. We had the motorway to ourselves and got there real quick. If we saw anyone driving we guessed they were northerners. The southerners who were about were all driving huge 4x4 monsters that cost the price of a house. Altho we did see an old southern lady we knew (mid 80's) and she drove all over the place perfectly.

1:19 pm

periwinkle

el6 pls

1:19 pm

2:19 pm

m9f9l

2:19 pm

Dorens

2:19 pm

wht

It seems so appropriate that the words sh4/6, sa4/4 and ma4/5 are all in the grid on Black Friday.

2:19 pm

dfmchfhf

-.- and Babble loves to invisiblefy my te5/10...

2:19 pm

ardilla

there wasn't a good sa4/4 here though

2:21 pm

Sometimes the grid seems to have a se5/10 of humor.

2:22 pm

ardilla

it was a pretty la4/5 sa4/4, no good bargains

2:22 pm

dfmchfhf

down to one digit le4!

2:23 pm

Dorens

go df, go

2:23 pm

m9f9l

you can do it dfm!

You should have gone into housewares, all of the la5/14 were half off.

2:24 pm

Boobear

yw lynxxx

2:24 pm

ardilla

the two things i actually wanted weren't on sa4/4

2:25 pm

ardilla

there was only one american store here so not much competition and things sold out fast

2:26 pm

ardilla

plus, pretty sure if they even had la5/14, they would be the wrong voltage :(

2:27 pm

ardilla

the large american store is on the naval base, 1.5 hours away

2:27 pm

m9f9l

hmph. a few of the ma's I am missing were one's I already had... I'm sure!

2:27 pm

My son manages a restaurant that opens at 11AM for lunch. He refers to people who show up at 10:45, can't read the sign on the door about hours and start "tugging" as "door pullers".

4:33 pm

tomorrow isshort at local businessday.if i do so i epect they spend as much time with me as i nee.othrwise i would go to a big box store.

4:36 pm

72 Temple Owl

locals often cannot match price, theonly way they can compete is to offer service. customers are not a pain to be endured; they are the reason the merchant is in business.

4:37 pm

cosdem

ok finally.. list time :)

4:38 pm

lbdawger

that's true, TO. but a little courtesy from the customers would be greatly appreciated.

4:39 pm

72 Temple Owl

dawg: many time i have had to bite my tongue; the customer is the customer. they are sadly too used to rude treatment, no wonder sometimes beahve badly. generally, repayinbg rude with courteous wins in the end.

4:41 pm

lbdawger

i've never been rude to a customer, although the thought had crossed my mind. i'm just amazed at how some people think we are servants and not workers. It's tolerable during slow time, but not during black friday!

4:42 pm

72 Temple Owl

5:07 pm

Mom

Had better not serve a jell-o salad here, I would be laughed at from here to the border

5:07 pm

Jillyjill

Nice!! (copy and paste again)

5:08 pm

MollyL

That's kind of the way it is around her regarding jell-o salad Mom.

5:08 pm

Jillyjill

Ya, right...everybody says the same about the greem bean cassarole...then they complain if it's not there...

5:08 pm

carleekat

why mom?

5:08 pm

lbdawger

it doesn't look like jello, so i think most people would accept it.

5:09 pm

Mom

well.....

5:09 pm

carleekat

i had green bean casserole for the very first time last weekend...again..not a cdn thing

5:09 pm

Mom

Grandma use to make this jell-0 salad with cabbage and marshmallows and I don't know what else was in it and always served it in the peach tupperware container.

5:09 pm

Minveryork

Thanks you for the Thanksgiving wishes. Hope all had a very nice Thanksgiving with your family and friends

5:10 pm

Mom

bye Jillyjill

5:11 pm

carleekat

how do u make it mom...the recipe i had to follow was 2 can green beans, 1 can corn, 1 can cream of mushroom soup, 2 cupes grated cheddar, salt and pepper and the fried onions around the edge

5:11 pm

Mom

I will have to go through her recipes and see if I can find it

5:11 pm

Mom

oh Carlee, not like that

5:11 pm

carleekat

it wasnt bad....

5:12 pm

MollyL

Sweet potatoes at Thanksgiving, not Canadian. Okay, that explains why I could never turn Dan. Although my Thanksgiving sweet potatoes are awesome, with pecans, brown sugar and coconut on top.

5:12 pm

car.eeyore

Min...you are always warm and inviting to everyone!

5:12 pm

carleekat

we do sweet potatoes...just not with marshmallows..they sweet enough..although..they are excellent sliced and baked with maple syru[ and butter

5:13 pm

Mom

2 cans french style green beans (Freshlike), 1 can cream of mushroom soup(pureed), little bit of milk mixed in the soup. drain the green beans, mix in the soup, mix in durkee french fried onions and pour into greased casserole, top all over with the onions and bake 30 minutes at 350

5:13 pm

lbdawger

i agree, carlee. not a marshmallow fan. besides they usually melt into the dish anyway

5:13 pm

MollyL

Green bean casserole needs fresh beans, not canned. The rest of what you said, give or take, is how I make mine. Cos said his partner uses made from scratch mushroom soup, which sounds good.

5:13 pm

carleekat

ok...so..similar....i kinda liked it with the corn and cheese

5:14 pm

Mom

only time we have fresh green beans is in the summer with new potatoes and a ham

5:15 pm

MollyL

Oh Mom! Fresh green beans, new potatoes and ham is HEAVEN!

5:15 pm

Mom

made in the pressure cooker

5:15 pm

carleekat

we make a green bean salad..with parboiled green beans...garlic, oregano, balsamic vinegar and olive oil..all ingredients go on whilst still hot..and then u chill

5:15 pm

carleekat

( salt and pepper too )

5:15 pm

MollyL

Um...no. Not in the pressure cooker. I fry my new potatoes and ham in butter and onions and steam the beans.

5:15 pm

Mom

oh Carlee, cold green beans?

5:16 pm

Was hoping to finish puzzle,but al 4/4 I gave up with 185 words.So here is a story of clues.Had a very nice Thanksgiving.I made sure to check out all the sa5/10 before getting my turkey.I got a turkey on sa 4/4 at Stop and Sh 4/5 for Thanksgiving. They usually se4/4 turkeys for a great price. Anyway, getting ready for Thanksgiving usually drives me insa4/4, but this year was not too bad. Husband and I were the ho4/5s this year. We celebrated with three of our ma4/5 friends whose na4/5s are Al 4/4, Ja 4/9 & Jo 4/10. They live a mi 4/5 away right down the la4/4. I also invited my friend Ne 6/18. Sh 4/5 my best friend. I went to the po 4/5 office and ma 4/5ed them an invitation a few weeks ago. For appetizers,we had chips and sa5/10. For dinner, we ate yam, li 4/5 beans, corn, ma 4/6ed potatoes,& turkey; an as5/10 to every Thanksgiving meal. It's the sa 4/5 meal we have every year. I must confe4/7 I did not make the meal myse4/7. My hubby made the meal with ea 4/4 as he is a master chef. He always ma4/5 kitchen on Thanksgiving. It only makes se5/10 that my hubby cooks the meal since he knows how to cook and I don't.He always th4/5ws me out of the kitchen & then sh5/12ds me from reentering the kitchen when he is cooking.While we were eating my dog kept ju 4/12ing up looking for food. Hubby le 4/4 him beg for food. I almost put him on a le 5/12 so we could eat in peace.He ju5/26 up everytime we eat at the table. I fe 4/7 like a stuffed turkey myself when I was done eating. I thought I was going to sp 4/6 my meal.I'm not le4/4 today.In fact,I look pretty he4/8y today.I think my body does not need any more fu4/8 for another week. I hope my fat body will he4/5 from all the food soon. I should eat le 4/4 today, but what the he4/5, I may as well pig out again tonight with all the le 4/7-overs we have. I'll go on a diet and le 6/18 my food intake after the holidays.Well I have nothing el 4/4 to do today so I will stay here to chat and clue.

Wow! Min! TY!

5:24 pm

Brookie

Thanks min!

5:25 pm

Jillyjill

Snow allows you to be out and about w/o getting wet...not so much with rain. Kids can go outside in snow, not so much with rain...I like seasons..I like snow.

5:25 pm

MollyL

Car EE...do you have as + a boat with a big white ****

5:25 pm

MollyL

I don't know. I've raised three kids and they all come in soaking wet from playing in the snow.

5:28 pm

Brookie

Snow is pretty to look at and not so much fun to drive in.

5:29 pm

Jillyjill

Well I choose to live in snow country...you can put lots of clothes on, but you can't remove enough of them in the heat...lol...to each their own!

5:31 pm

Brookie

5:35 pm

MollyL

Jilly, it's all good. If I could, I would move somewhere that it never snows. It's just not my thing. And I'm scarred from last winter, because we had three bad blizzards in three months. It's not usually like that here in the winter.

5:35 pm

Brookie

Just googled it, Jilly. The pics are gorgeous!

5:35 pm

5:39 pm

MollyL

Speaking of "Gremlins" I wish I had a picture of the look on my face when I let my young children watch that movie and freakin' Phoebe Cates goes into the whole story of how "that's when I knew there was no Santa Claus". Bless me, I lied and told them it must have been a bad dream she was talking about.

5:40 pm

cosdem

aww molly!

5:40 pm

cosdem

my 2nd grade teacher told us there was no santa claus! she got tons of angry phone calls that night lol

5:40 pm

5:42 pm

Jillyjill

My Gremlins tale (since my kids were kids when it came out) was where they went into the movie theatre....my youngest said "That's a really big video store..."...we made sure to take him to an actual movie theatre after that!

5:42 pm

carleekat

i loved magic xmas pajamas...worked brilliantly for getting the kids to sleep

5:42 pm

cosdem

5:42 pm

Brookie

I never believed in Santa. I remember being 3 years old and trying to stay up to catch my parents bring in toys from the car.

5:43 pm

cosdem

i loved the old lady on the stairchair zooming up in the sky

5:43 pm

MollyL

Oh Brooke, that makes me sad.

5:44 pm

cosdem

i remember when i was 7 or so and i asked my mom why she had the same writing as santa claus.. she said its b/c he forgot to put on the tags

5:44 pm

Brookie

I also remember going to DisneyWorld when I was 6 and thinking, "so what"? I was a miserable child.

5:44 pm

Jillyjill

WE have a rule in this house (of course being Catholic helps..there IS a St Nicholas)...Santa still comes if you believe in him....my boys always answer yes to that question....

5:44 pm

cosdem

5:44 pm

Brookie

Brooke, after watching your video of the comedy competition, it's obvious that you are a perfect example of the phrase "it's never too late to have a happy childhood".

Hi Nef

8:06 pm

Nef

OOPS! Sorry

8:07 pm

MollyL

Nef, no worries. There are oodles of Thanksgiving leftovers in the PB. And I just put some more homemade rolls in there for turkey sandwiches.

8:09 pm

Nef

thanks, Molly. I was eating a hot turkey sandwich (with mashed potatoes and gravy) when I put the word in the wrong box. I'm off to the PB to veg out

8:09 pm

lbdawger

hi crossy, hi nef

8:10 pm

8:11 pm

Boobear

I'll add my leftovers to the pb too

8:11 pm

lbdawger

thought of you this afternoon, crossy. was watching foodnetwork and guy fieri was at some diner that did all sorts of things with bacon

8:12 pm

lbdawger

good for you, Nef. enough crazy folks out there today.

8:13 pm

Boobear

I didn't go shopping today. very crowded

8:14 pm

crosshair

Good Enough

i add turkey bacon to my stuffing. it's the best!!

8:15 pm

Boobear

well cross I see you heard your favorite wors

8:15 pm

Boobear

oops word

8:15 pm

MollyL

Truly, I don't know why anyone goes shopping anymore. The on line deals are as good as the store deals. And this time of year, there is free shipping.

8:16 pm

Nef

The radio said that the mall closest to me didn't have a parking space available for over 6 hours during the day today

8:17 pm

Good Enough

i agree molly. That's what i have done all day :)

8:17 pm

lbdawger

i got to work at 5:50 and the parking lot was full! crazy people were everywhere!

I don't understand people who participate in crowd behavior. Back when I was contemplating a Master's Degree, I was going to do my thesis on crowd behavior. It baffles me.

8:22 pm

lbdawger

hi stiddy

8:23 pm

Nef

Any clues for the U and R in the bottom row? I still need NBT

8:23 pm

MollyL

Howdy Stid. How's the weather out your way today?

8:23 pm

lbdawger

not sure if you can call it crowd behaviour as much as herding instinct! lol

8:23 pm

scribekd

the u is short for a kind of referee

8:24 pm

stidmama

U are the refs in football or baseball

8:24 pm

stidmama

the guys who stand behind the catcher in baseball, um4, nef

rainy, molly. warm (comparatively) not bad

8:24 pm

JenMO16

nef, think baseball for the u

8:24 pm

Nef

thanks scrib and stid

8:24 pm

MollyL

Lbd...I like herding instinct much better. Sheeple.

8:24 pm

lbdawger

lol, molly! yes, sheeple

8:25 pm

lbdawger

bottom r is greek letter

8:25 pm

MollyL

So Stid, all the snow and ice are gone. Good.

8:25 pm

stidmama

ah, sheeple -- the fu4 for the economic engine of modern times...

8:25 pm

Nef

"i did get the u word" was not found in the dictionary SHOOT! One of THOSE days! :-(

8:25 pm

stidmama

yes, very good. it was highly dangerous tuesday, and still dangerous wednesday, but not as much

8:26 pm

stidmama

LOL nef! I do that SO often!

8:26 pm

Jillyjill

Hi Nef!

8:27 pm

Nef

got the R! Thanks, lbd!!!

8:27 pm

Nef

Hi Jilly! How are you today?

8:27 pm

Jillyjill

Good, and you? Was the clinic open today?

8:27 pm

crosshair

lol molly re: crowd behavior,have you ever gone into a office building and gone into an elevator and faced the back wall just to see what the rest of the occupants do? or only walk on the white tile of a black and white tile floor?..great fun!

8:27 pm

stidmama

hey jilly

8:28 pm

stidmama

*hugs cross*

8:28 pm

Jillyjill

HI Stid!! How are you? Staying safe I hope.

8:28 pm

Nef

Nope. we're closed for 4 days in a row

8:28 pm

8:28 pm

Honestly, I can't think of anything that I would rather NOT do than go mix it up with sheeple crowds the day after Thanksgiving.

8:28 pm

stidmama

yes, but you have raised him up properly... LOL

8:31 pm

Jillyjill

Stid and crossy...i really like teenagers!! Of course, much easier as a youth minister than parent...lol

8:31 pm

stidmama

I am SURE he gives you no trouble!

8:31 pm

MollyL

Teenagers should = an automatic, always refillable prescription of Xanex. Many of life's problems would be solved if that were the case.

8:31 pm

stidmama

rofl Molly!

8:31 pm

Jillyjill

For them or us molly!!

8:31 pm

crosshair

dealing with other peoples kids is always easier that deal with your own,cause you own know how to push all the right buttons

8:32 pm

lbdawger

teens...cryogenics!

8:32 pm

MollyL

I can tell you, having survived the teenage years three times, that there is good life on the other side. Story to follow.

8:32 pm

Jillyjill

oh, the little darlings often try to push mine as well!!

8:32 pm

crosshair

is there? or does my 25 year old son move back in with the pregnant GF

8:33 pm

Jillyjill

Both of mine were pretty mellow for teen years, it's just the oldest finally found his way at 27...

8:33 pm

Jillyjill

After bad marriage, bankruptcy...*grabbing for hair dye*

8:34 pm

stidmama

*gasp* CROSS! you have a 25 yo??? *faints* (I thought you were too young for that)

8:34 pm

crosshair

no,mine is only 16,was just thinking ahead

8:34 pm

MollyL

Middle son is 29, married for three years to the sweetest woman there is. She mentioned that she loves pecan pie at Thanksgiving. While she was out working her 3PM to 3AM nurse shift, he bought a pecan pie and left it on the counter for her to find when she got in from work.

8:34 pm

stidmama

*realizes that might be taken the wrong way and blushes*

8:35 pm

stidmama

oh what a sweetie, Molly! you brought him up right!

8:35 pm

MollyL

Those two are my favorite love story.

8:35 pm

crosshair

lol,mine is just 16,but already angling for car privilages

8:35 pm

Jillyjill

I hope for mine to find the right one....he deserves a good wife and I WANT grandkids!!

8:36 pm

MollyL

I take no more credit for my kids "good stuff" than I do for their "not so good stuff". I gave them the best I have and, luckily, they have blended that into who they are.

8:36 pm

stidmama

I am not sure I want grandkids -- parenting has been so traumatic (at times) I don't think I want my children to experience that

8:37 pm

Good Enough

my 15 y o is the classic lovable underachiever. just can't light a fire in that kid.

8:37 pm

Jillyjill

So true Molly, but take it from me, they do benefit from a stable environment and lots of love and support...ability to give them wings but to be there when they fall

8:37 pm

Good Enough

i agree molly- no credit no blame!!

8:37 pm

MollyL

Jilly, I am SO READY for grandkids.

8:38 pm

MollyL

No Credit, No Blame. It's a new age Bob Marley song. : P

8:38 pm

Jillyjill

GO: that is my oldest....he will find his way, it takes longer. Those need the flight/fall support.

8:38 pm

stidmama

well at some point the kiddos have to stand on their own -- their own decisions, their own consequences

8:39 pm

stidmama

brb

8:40 pm

Jillyjill

Mine is very intelligent and charming. He skated thru HS ("Does not work up to potential"). When he finally realized value of education, he began college...now is in Nat'l Honor Society. Yours will be fine...

8:40 pm

lbdawger

unconditional love. even when you'd like a paternity test or at least an mri to see if there is a functioning brain within the skull

8:40 pm

MollyL

Letting go is the hardest part. We do that when they learn to walk, and when they learn to ride a bike. It's a lot harder when we have to let them go be independent.

8:41 pm

Jillyjill

Lots of tears eh Molly!

8:41 pm

lbdawger

never had the problem with independence, fearing he'd break every bone in his body before he finished hs was my biggest fear

8:41 pm

crosshair

it is molly,we had to learn that with ours. you know how muched we agonized over giving him his own set of house keys and letting him be here on his own while we went out? lol talk about learing,it was us that had to learn and not him;/

8:42 pm

Good Enough

so true lbd. unfortunaltly my son needed a mri a couple years ago - they thought he might have a brain tumor. No tumor but we did confirm he has a brain! now we beg him to use it.

8:43 pm

stidmama

oh good! how scary that must have been. ((hugs)) glad he was okay!

8:43 pm

Jillyjill

OUr youngest was pretty high strung, since he came out his junior year, he has really mellowed...my regret? Not pursueing a conversation when I felt he might have been struggling with his sexuality..

8:43 pm

Good Enough

just a bump in the road stid. we all have em.

8:44 pm

Jillyjill

don't we know it!

8:44 pm

stidmama

((jilly))

8:45 pm

Jillyjill

thanks stiddy...but he knows I love him and these things happen

8:45 pm

stidmama

that is important -- I meant hugs for watching him struggle. it's hard to watch someone you love go through that.

8:46 pm

Jillyjill

I appreciate the hugs!

8:46 pm

Jillyjill

No matter what struggles, we all suffer watching our 'babies' take on life!

8:48 pm

stidmama

yes, our babies grow up so fast (although at times it seems it will NEVER happen!)

8:49 pm

crosshair

it is strange to think that soon there may be grandbabbies around

8:49 pm

MollyL

Jilly, no regrets about something you were not sure about. The most important thing is, you love him...he knows that...and he knows that you are always there for him.

8:49 pm

Jillyjill

I always tried to remember all the good stuff...it still went way to fast!

8:50 pm

Jillyjill

You are right molly...he does.

8:50 pm

stidmama

*stern mama look at stidkids* Not THAT soon, cross!!!!

8:50 pm

Jillyjill

Oh crossy, they are so wonderful...I had a step-grandson for 4 years...it was very nice

8:51 pm

crosshair

lol stidmama,told the boy he cannot even date till he is 25

8:51 pm

stidmama

good idea! *conveys new rule to stidkids*

8:52 pm

stidmama

replies: "That's crazy" -- "good luck enforcing that one, Mom"

8:53 pm

Jillyjill

locking them up doesn't work...lol...but teaching them to respect others and about consequences....

8:53 pm

MollyL

Cross, you are lucky. My boys were well into dating by age 16.

8:53 pm

crosshair

and on that fateful day dad and son will make a trip to the pharmacy and before he goes out on the date i want to see that he has it with him..as a matter of fact,before he even steps out that door,i want to SEE IT on!! lol

8:53 pm

stidmama

roflmao

8:53 pm

stidmama

I dare not convey that to the chillun's

8:54 pm

Jillyjill

lol...actually I gave them that pharmacy product the minute they started dating!

8:54 pm

MollyL

Jilly, yes. Teaching respect for others and about consequences goes a long way.

8:54 pm

Jillyjill

I had thought about suturing on one though....

8:55 pm

stidmama

good old-fashioned chastity belts... for MEN!

8:55 pm

lbdawger

i told my son, 1st, i was too young to be a grandmother, 2nd, i would not raise any of his mistakes.

8:56 pm

Jillyjill

My lines too dawg!

reading this I didn't have anything to say til now. Please, when raising your sons, tell them that if the girl says she's crazy; *they* can't cure her! They should run the other way!

8:58 pm

stidmama

we definitely need to be clear about when restrictions are lifted...

8:58 pm

Jillyjill

Or those that play head games...

8:58 pm

stidmama

true of anyone, Nef -- we can't "fix" other people and we can't "fix" the world FOR other people either

8:59 pm

MollyL

Agreed Stid. True of anyone. Love does not = fixing. That is codependency to the max.

9:00 pm

stidmama

and we shouldn't have to allow ourselves to be changed in order to make another happy (wish someone had told me that last piece early on)

9:00 pm

Nef

yep. My dtr-in-law is certifiably crazy and I love my grandson like crazy. I will always treat her well; but Damn! I wish my son wouldn't have gotten involved with her!

9:01 pm

stidmama

that's rough, nef
