I rarely even mention that topic in the chog, scouser.

*coughs*

1:05 am

negativeneil

What's in my profile, you read at your own risk. :P

1:05 am

rururocks

*coughs again for extra measure*

1:05 am

negativeneil

But I don't generally discuss it in the chog. At least I don't bring up the subject in the chog that much... others do though.

1:05 am

rururocks

*hack*

1:05 am

negativeneil

Cough all you want ru, but that's how it is. I'm not usually starting discussions on that subject.

1:05 am

m9f9l

wow... our cat Tai Tai is running about like a little maniac. She's not usually playful like that.. at least I THINK she's being playful...

1:05 am

You started it, not me.

1:05 am

rururocks

lol

1:06 am

rururocks

you're right I did

1:06 am

negativeneil

I do tell you to check updates about it, yeah. But that's about as much as I usually "discuss" it in here.

1:06 am

m9f9l

"not I" (ducks)

1:06 am

scouser

back to the grid: today's moan - in here there are words ending in -le why isn't there the matching one that starts with fa? usually has new in front

1:06 am

negativeneil

Doesn't seem to be popular discussion material... or too appropriate, due to differing opinions, shall we say.

1:07 am

scouser

Ok Neil. hands up, and toes. here

1:07 am

rururocks

puleeeeease

1:07 am

negativeneil

Huh, ru?

1:07 am

m9f9l

and my usual moan.. it doesn't take "thang" LOL

1:07 am

negativeneil

Well I've had complaints, for responding when others have brought up the subject!

1:07 am

scouser

is that a verb or a noun?

1:08 am

rururocks

too bad for them neil.. it's the real world

1:08 am

1:08 am

m9f9l

next line any one??

1:09 am

rururocks

(can't remember)

1:09 am

negativeneil

Yeah I know. But once someone else brought something I'd posted in an update into the chog, taking exception with me over it... I shouldn't have even responded but I did, only to have a few others jump all over me for it, because they didn't agree with the fact stated in it.

1:09 am

m9f9l

"I can't tel you...."

1:09 am

m9f9l

"who to sock it to"

1:09 am

I believe in free speech

1:09 am

1:10 am

But their behavior was another matter.

Admittedly his is nicer... nicer abode too.
But is his photo funnier? I think not.

3:06 am

Glantarell

I agree on the funny front

3:06 am

negativeneil

Haha yeah. I look like I'm on prozac there.

3:06 am

negativeneil

A little too happy for a "negative" Neil huh?

3:07 am

Glantarell

I was thinking your friend on prozac, you on amphetamines LOL

3:07 am

negativeneil

Huh? My g/f doesn't really even look happy there.

3:07 am

Glantarell

just landed temporarily on the couch after bouncing off the walls...

3:07 am

negativeneil

Haha!

3:08 am

Glantarell

don't think prozac makes you happy, more zoned out LOL

3:08 am

negativeneil

Oh maybe. Dunno. Never been on it.

3:08 am

negativeneil

Everyone seems to think it's the "happy pill" though.

3:08 am

Glantarell

I had a brief dabble with it last autumn

3:09 am

negativeneil

Oh, ok. You'd know more than me then.

3:09 am

Glantarell

actually it doesn't make you zoned out, it just gradually improves your outlook

3:09 am

negativeneil

So sure, let's go with amphetamines then, why not?

3:09 am

negativeneil

Well that's good... sounds better than some other antidepressants I've heard about.

3:10 am

Glantarell

and of course I'll never know if it was the pills which heloped or the fact that the ass**** got out of my life!

3:10 am

negativeneil

Ah ok. Probably more the latter!

3:11 am

Glantarell

;)

3:14 am

negativeneil

Actually, Glant?

3:14 am

Glantarell

actually what?

3:14 am

negativeneil

"Before diagnosing yourself with depression or low self esteem first make sure that you are not in fact
surrounded by assholes." -- One of my favorite quotes, haha!

3:15 am

Glantarell

ah, I wasn't exactly surrounded by them but the one I had was certainly surrounding me being being one in various areas of my life...

3:15 am

negativeneil

I saw it a while ago and just had to go looking for it again to share with you. ;)

3:16 am

Glantarell

He is now in New Zealand, the house is sold, and the divorce may even have finalised by now...

3:16 am

negativeneil

Well I hope you're free of all that now?

3:16 am

negativeneil

Oh good!

3:16 am

That's far enough away.

Oh wow. Wishing you the best of luck with that!

3:17 am

Yep. I make enough of them so I read them well.

3:18 am

I don't know if I blacked out from hitting my head when I fell or if I blacked out and then fell

6:46 am

rubyfoo

It looks like a pig has been slaughtered in the bathroom where I fell

6:46 am

hurshy

um so i assume you are babbling from hospital????

6:46 am

Uneaixoise

OMG, ruby, are you ok???

6:47 am

oh Ruby! What did you hurt?

6:47 am

I've never blacked out before, but my bBP is VERY low

6:47 am

rubyfoo

luckily, I made one of my spectacular landings, so hurt multiple places rather than breaking something

6:48 am

aw sweetie, darn :( That is not ok. Until they find the cause or a cure, pls be very careful? Slowly getting up and down, and hold on to stuff while you stand?

6:49 am

Ruby, Kosher salt is best. How is Burt, is he home or in the hospital and how are YOU?

hi sprite :)

6:50 am

but I think it was just fatigue and stress, nothing serious

6:50 am

Uneaixoise

hey, sprite ;-)

6:51 am

ruby, dear one... falling down and hurting yourself is always serious. Take care.

6:51 am

Anniebrook

Blacking out is serious. I'm glad the doctor is doing bloodwork.

6:51 am

rubyfoo

it could have been much worse

6:51 am

Uneaixoise

oh, ruby, wish a host of Babble helpers could arrive at your door reporting for duty!!

yep, could have been worse. Can be a lot better too, though.

6:53 am

rubyfoo

I just must have looked really pale and tired plus I was still a little bloody

6:53 am

rubyfoo

husband won't accept any outside care, stubborn as a chow chow!

6:54 am

Uneaixoise

i think it's time you overruled him!

6:54 am

Uneaixoise

none of my business . . . sorry

6:54 am

sprite

if it becomes too much for you to handle, he will have to accept outside help.

6:54 am

Anniebrook

Sometimes we have to do what is best for the caregiver.

6:54 am

rubyfoo

I agree with you, une, and I appreciate your input but he gets really nasty if I bring up issues like that

6:55 am

witchy

did you get hold of daughter in ca? maybe she could do something

6:55 am

Uneaixoise

what if doc and/or nurse tells him you need help??

6:55 am

sprite

I am with Une and Annie. In the long run, he will benefit. Maybe don't bring it up, just arrange it.

6:55 am

rubyfoo

she's both dumb and a ditherer, would be no help at all + she lives in Calif

6:57 am

rubyfoo

he doesn't want to see his daughter while he's in this state....

6:58 am

rubyfoo

and the sun is shining!

6:59 am

what if you left ruby? he'd have to accept outside help then

6:59 am

rubyfoo

<-- trying hard to be optimistic

7:00 am

witchy

if you could get to uk you and dogs could stay here

suefrad625

we=he

7:04 am

rubyfoo

hahah

7:05 am

rubyfoo

he wouldn't even take out a piece of chicken for his own lunch, said "I just won't eat!" Passive-aggressive like his mother

7:06 am

sprite

that will only work as long as you let him blackmail you with it though...

7:06 am

suefrad625

he doesnt know what he has until he doesnt have you for a bit.

7:06 am

suefrad625

so, he has 40 days before organ shut down

7:06 am

rubyfoo

my reply was "fine"

7:06 am

7:11 am

rubyfoo

7:11 am

sprite

better not head him, grin.

7:12 am

rubyfoo

lol, didn't see my typo

7:12 am

sprite

ruby, I can really understand why your husband is being such a pain. And I sympathize with him. But when he treats you like dirt, I really feel you shouldn't let him. Make sure he knows where the boundaries and limits are.

7:13 am

sprite

I have this nasty eye... I see all typos. I am great at revising texts :)

7:13 am

rubyfoo

I just stay away from him when he's like this. I do as much as I can, but when I don't feel well, I just stop

7:13 am

MollyL

Ruby, I hope you will remember to take care of yourself too. Over doing things can lead to bad results, as you found out.

7:13 am

rubyfoo

there could be nothing nasty about you, sprite!

7:14 am

sprite

I'm with Molly too. Stop doing as much as you can, and quit before you don't feel well.

7:14 am

rubyfoo

playing babble is taking care of myself!

7:14 am

sprite

as most things, the eye for typos can be both a good or an irritating thing, grin.

7:15 am

sprite

playing babble is very good :D
I wish my girl was better, then I could come over to yours, ruby. I cannot yet leave her though.

7:16 am

rubyfoo

but from what you've said, she is on the mend, right?

7:16 am

rubyfoo

Burt would have a fit to have "company" see him like this

7:16 am

sprite

oh yes, she is! Going in the right direction now.

7:16 am

sprite

he'd have to accept me, honey. I can be very persistant. And I kind of like him, and I think he knows that.

7:17 am

sprite

persistent? Yeah, I think e, right?

7:17 am

rubyfoo

close enough!

7:19 am

sprite

well let's keep in touch. When my girl is better and things are still bad at your place, we will see what can be done.

Luckily, I don't like Oreos, so slutty brownies hold no appeal for me.

Fear of heights = altophobia.

7:46 am

Kaplan the Magne

I thought it was acrophobia.

7:46 am

gramma

Kaplan, I could use a good stimulation.It's been years since I felt that way. ;)

7:46 am

MollyL

I was wondering where "phobia" was in the grid.

7:46 am

gramma

Old movie. Vert***

7:47 am

Kaplan the Magne

Acrophobia (from the Greek: á¼„ÎºÏÎ¿Î½, Ã¡kron , meaning "peak, summit, edge" and Ï†ÏŒÎ²Î¿Ï‚, phÃ³bos, "fear") is an extreme or irrational fear of heights. It belongs to a category of specific phobias, called space and motion discomfort that share both similar etiology and options for treatment.

7:47 am

MollyL

That word means dizziness.

7:47 am

Scrabbler

Yes, that is another word for it, Kap.

7:47 am

Kaplan the Magne

Gran, that sounds so racy I hardly know what to say.

7:48 am

anyone know the stats on the 9?

answers.yahoo.com â€º ... â€º All Categories â€º Social Science â€º Psychology
1 answer - Feb 3, 2009
Top answer: Acrophobia is an extreme or irrational fear of heights. Altophobia is a fear of high places. Hypsiphobia is also a fear of heights

7:48 am

Scrabbler

OK, I have la6, now I must find that at7.

7:48 am

Kaplan the Magne

I learn so much here.

7:49 am

Scrabbler

I was reading Phobia List.

7:49 am

MollyL

Scrabs, the last part of the at7 rhymes with what sleigh bells do

7:49 am

Kaplan the Magne

got the la.

7:50 am

MollyL

Now, what is the difference between heights and high places?

7:50 am

Kaplan the Magne

Hypsiphobia- will it be in tomorrow's grid?

7:51 am

Kaplan the Magne

Heights+ Brooklyn Heights. High places= Haight Ashbury circa 1967.

7:51 am

Scrabbler

Silly Kap.

7:51 am

Kaplan the Magne

:)

7:51 am

Sugrraleona

being at the top of the empire state building and being unable to look down = is afraid of heights. Being afraid of Flying in an aeroplane is being afraid of high places. yes? maybe?

passion fruit icing is great

they might have a flavored icing and an extra layer of filling, like raspberries

9:03 am

vanillaslice

no I think its Australian but I may be wrong

there was a place I would go to in Baltimore every Sunday morning called Napoleon's Bakery.... good coffee, hard rolls, and a pastry was their breakfast special..... but never tried that one, couldn't get past the really good chocolate croissants they made (only decent croissant this side of the pond I have ever had)

9:08 am

vanillaslice

well at least the Pavlova is Australian created in Perth up the road from us here

9:08 am

kje

pavlovas... a gorgeous dessert

9:08 am

kje

I didn't know it was australian.... cool

9:09 am

named after Anna Pavlova the Russian Ballet dancer

9:10 am

kje

yes, I always thought it was russian

9:10 am

reminds me of the caesar salad.... not italian, created in mexico actually

9:11 am

vanillaslice

1935 the chef of the Hotel esplanade in Perth Western Australia cooked it up

9:12 am

back in the early days we had ceasar salad till we were sick of it, can't stand it now

(I am eating mandarins with my coffee.... should stop the sweets talk before I am forced to go find something rich)

9:12 am

caesar salad is good, when made traditionally and fresh.... every cheap knock-off has made it boring and blah

9:13 am

caesar salad, vanilla slices, all we need is a main course and cocktail :)

9:14 am

anchovies and good croutons :)

9:14 am

ok ok don't let my better half see this

9:15 am

fresh croutons rubbed with garlic and anchovy before baking to a crisp

9:15 am

actually, my breakfast will be a vegetarian scramble with broccoli, mushrooms, a little cream cheese mixed in as the eggs cook, and sliced tomatoes on the side.... I am dieting

9:18 am

best you can do is pay it forward in your own circle of life,and if enough people do that the circles will overlap:)

9:19 am

vanillaslice

you'll get fat on the diet lol

9:19 am

kje

vegetable scramble, I meant, not vegetarian... I am not a vegetarian

9:19 am

kje

no, I have lost weight on that diet...

9:20 am

welki

i thought you were having scrambled vegetarians for breakfast - you'd need a pretty big frying pan

9:20 am

crosshair

and you would have to add some bacon..the meat would be too lean..turn into pellets in da pan:))

9:20 am

vanillaslice

whenever we have birthdays etc we don't give presents, just money for a particular cause... eases the conscience

9:20 am

well... I could eat scrambled vegetarians, since I am not a vegetarian, but I will refrain

nah, i really didn't think that - but the image is funny

11:44 am

rururocks

I prefer gin..

11:44 am

welki

lime juice and gin or vodka with a little simple syrup and a wedge of lime - or use rose's lime juice

11:44 am

YadNivek

11:44 am

72 Temple Owl

11:45 am

72 Temple Owl

beer and wine have gone by the wayside as well.

11:45 am

welki

what's the diff, owl? proof is the same

11:45 am

MollyL

Which is funny because it's a total myth that you can't smell vodka on someone's breath.

Kid should at least be taught to print. I can see cursive going the way of the dinosaur, but I think some form of making a personal mark should be maintained.

12:08 pm

jesdraggon

the only way I can avoid yelling at newspapers to get better editors is to not read the news...

My husband is doing a historical property search of the farm he grew up on. I transcribed a deed from 1830 the other day. Believe me, I was cursing the hand-written documents of the era.

12:10 pm

jesdraggon

72 Temple Owl

watched sunday morning and the typewriter is making a comeback in some circles.

12:11 pm

Judi

At least printing looks like typed text. In a pinch, you can scraw "S.O.S." on a sandy beach if you need to be rescued.

12:11 pm

Judi

*scrawl* eesh.

12:12 pm

MollyL

The game is not on until 6:30

3:55 pm

doseffing

... not a big fan anymore ... ... too much talk radio ... too much gambling ... too much manly stuff ... not enough fun anymore

3:56 pm

MollyL

Oh, I think there is still lots of fun in football. A lot of other dumb stuff, but great fun watching the games.

3:56 pm

hego

I agree, although I've always been a baseball person.

3:57 pm

coyote man

takes way too long those basball games

3:57 pm

the nurse in me cringes watching football

I never see the point of all these guys crashing into each other and running this way and that

3:58 pm

doseffing

... me too ... ... in my youth I was a Yankee fan ... my Dad was a Dodger fan ... hmmmmm ... ... just noticed that ... maybe it explains why I grew up a Montreal Canadiens fan in a family of Toronto Maple Leaf fanatics

3:58 pm

hego

lol

3:58 pm

hego

Dose how are you feeling these days?

3:59 pm

MollyL

I'm sure it looks that way to people who don't understand the sport.

3:59 pm

doseffing

... except for a damnable case of the flu that I can't shake ... everything is fine

3:59 pm

Kaplan the Magne

then they all fall down. it's like a game of ring-around-a rosie gone haywire

3:59 pm

hego

what good is a ball that don't roll. lol

3:59 pm

Kaplan the Magne

and the imaginary orange line thing?

3:59 pm

funny Kap

4:00 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Men in tights.

I llike that part

4:00 pm

4:00 pm

Kaplan the Magne

My husband was sick all week and my daughter is sick- guess who's next

4:00 pm

hego

poor Kap

4:01 pm

Kaplan the Magne

My biggest complaint- my hand! I have thumb pain so bad that it is hard to write and draw.

4:01 pm

doseffing

... there was an ancient comedy routine ... I can't remember who did it ... but it explained football as a religous rite ... ... with the sacrifical pill ... and vestal virgins on the sidelines dancing to delight the ball ... and and it went on and on in that tone ... ... it was hilarious ... but I can't remember who did it

4:01 pm

hego

why?

4:01 pm

Kaplan the Magne

The two things that keep me sane. I am going to a specialist this week

4:02 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I think it's latent homoeroticism. How's that?

4:02 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Football, I mean- not my thumb.

4:02 pm

hego

Oh, yes, Dose. It's all Roman coloseum, for sure.

4:02 pm

hego

war substitute

4:03 pm

hego

computer related

4:03 pm

Kaplan the Magne

So the specialist is a hand surgeon. What are the chances a surgeon recommends surgery?

4:03 pm

hego

your thumb, that is.

4:03 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Not computer related.

4:03 pm

hego

pretty good chance of that.

4:04 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Not carpal tunnel. It doesn't bother me at all to write on the keyboard, but put pressure on a pen- ouch. It's arthritis, I believe

4:04 pm

bichon

Have you tried an NSAID Kaplan?

4:04 pm

Kaplan the Magne

In the joint, not the wrist.

4:04 pm

Kaplan the Magne

what is a NSAID?

4:04 pm

hego

hmmm...... interesting.

4:05 pm

hego

yes arthritis

4:05 pm

Kaplan the Magne

That space between the thumb and forefinger- OMG

4:05 pm

hego

she means motrin or the like

4:05 pm

Kaplan the Magne

All this stuff has been creeping up on me

4:05 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Oh yeah, I gobble motrin

4:05 pm

hego

sorry to hear

4:05 pm

Kaplan the Magne

alleve.

4:06 pm

hego

yes Aleve too

4:06 pm

bichon

You can get a stronger on than Motrin by prescription. But, you have to be careful about your tummy

4:06 pm

Kaplan the Magne

It's in my genes. My tummy can tolerate motrin pretty well.

4:06 pm

Kaplan the Magne

My parents both had all kinds of arthritis, and much earlier in life.

4:07 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I am afraid I won't be able to draw. Or cut paper, which I also do a lot with my drawings and for collages.

4:07 pm

hego

that's too bad. I have those kind of problems also.

4:08 pm

bichon

Beyond Naproxen Socium, super strength, I don't know what else there is

4:08 pm

bichon

*Sodium

4:08 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Cortisone? I really don't want surgery on my dominant hand.

4:08 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Hego, it stinks.

4:09 pm

Kaplan the Magne

But it could be worse.

4:09 pm

hego

I've had cortisone injections all over the place.

4:09 pm

Kaplan the Magne

do they help?

4:09 pm

hego

they usually help. For a while at least.

4:10 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Kvetching.

4:10 pm

hego

sometimes a long while.

4:10 pm

hego

they are worth it for me.

4:10 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I tried denial. My favorite treatment.

4:10 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I see the hand guy on Wednesday.

4:11 pm

hego

not too effective

4:11 pm

hego

good luck

4:11 pm

MollyL

See, this is what happens when people use abbreviations. NSAID, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug.

4:12 pm

bichon

The trouble with hand specialists [or others like them] is they want to operate

4:12 pm

magazinemom

Kap- if you can find a certified hand therapist to do physical therapy with you, it's worth it. It did wonders for me with some of my repetitive motion injuries

4:12 pm

hego

I don't type that well.

4:12 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I went to draawing today and I couldn't believe how much it hurt. And I think I twisted my knee in Body Jam, so I might just take to my bed and have my personal maid attend to me, like in Downton.

4:12 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I know- that's what I am afraid of- I just want a diagnostic x-ray and some less drastic treatments.

4:13 pm

MollyL

Good advice Mag, I know people who have had the same results.

4:13 pm

hego

yes, that would be nice. tea please!

4:13 pm

hego

molly, do you have de's?

4:14 pm

magazinemom

Yes Molly! The girl I went to just did hands. She had the hand therapist certification and the exercises she taught me are so helpful!

4:15 pm

magazinemom

much better than when I went to a regular physical therapist with the hand problems. They're just not specialized enough.

4:15 pm

MollyL

People don't realize what kind of repetitive motion damage they are doing to their hands with keyboards and tiny cell phone buttons.

4:15 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I need an x-ray first I think. I have put off PT for a year because the location of the pain keeps shifting.

4:15 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Which is I think a characteristic of arthritis- that it shifts.

4:15 pm

hego

pt might help

4:15 pm

Kaplan the Magne

The computer doesn't bother me. I think I need OT.

4:15 pm

hego

yes, true

4:16 pm

magazinemom

And then there was the Christmas I crocheted 21 scarves as Christmas gifts. I thought my therapist was going to throttle me. LOL

4:16 pm

MollyL

Mag...glutton for punishment. : )

4:16 pm

hego

ouch!

4:16 pm

Kaplan the Magne

which is true?

4:16 pm

hego

the shifting

4:17 pm

magazinemom

and flat broke, Molly :-)

4:17 pm

magazinemom

As much as it pains me I must go finish cleaning the bathroom floors.

4:17 pm

magazinemom

Good luck with the thumb Kap!

4:18 pm

Kaplan the Magne

really? I have noticed it, but thought I was imagining. Sometimes it's my shoulder, sometimes my hip- lately my thumb. My husband thinks it's made up.

4:18 pm

MollyL

Kap, are you more likely to do repetitive motion with the keyboard, or with your drawing? It's what stresses the hand that will make it painful.

4:18 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Thank you, enough kvetching from me for today.

4:18 pm

magazinemom

mine occasionally moves up my arm into my elbow.

4:18 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Drawing pressure and gripping

4:19 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Hand writing.

neuritis?

4:19 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Oh great, another joint to worry about.

4:19 pm

hego

tendonitis?

4:19 pm

Kaplan the Magne

What is neuritis exactly?

4:19 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Itisitis.

4:19 pm

hego

inflamed nerve

4:20 pm

Kaplan the Magne

cool.

4:20 pm

Kaplan the Magne

There's sciatica, bursitis, arthritis, gout, rheumatism, neuritis...

4:21 pm

hego

yup

4:21 pm

hego

sciatica is neuritis

4:21 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Dementia, pseudo-dementia, carpal tunnel, tendonitis...what a wealth of opportunity

4:21 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Bell's Palsy?

4:22 pm

hego

inflammation of the sciatic nerve

4:22 pm

My mom had Bell's Palsy quite young.

Because it's true?

4:28 pm

hego

anybody have the de8?

4:28 pm

No politics!!!

4:29 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I mean the robocalls- apparently there was some kind of benefit that was taken away that made it possible to not subsidize their food

4:29 pm

hego

4:29 pm

de8 sounds like the gerund form of erasing something, but change the first vowel

Stromboli is bread dough rolled out with ham, pepperoni and cheese on it. Then you roll it up and bake it, then slice it.

8:15 pm

welki

hey crossy - beans came out great, but boyhowdy, they sort of tasted like Heinz!! strange!

8:15 pm

welki

(and the ribs were spectacular)

8:17 pm

welki

i even used salt pork belly in the beans - molasses, brown sugar and a splash of maple - not too much sweet, just a little of each - onion, coleman's mustard, a little bbq sauce/ketchup - and yep, you could swear Mrs. Heinz had a hand in them!

8:17 pm

wvteach

help with TA 5 / 14 please

8:17 pm

mmmm...ribs...

8:18 pm

8:18 pm

8:18 pm

wvteach

thnx welki

8:18 pm

welki

i make great beans - no recipe, though (if i don't have something, i'll use whatever i can find)

8:19 pm

welki

made enough to give away some and freeze the rest

8:19 pm

lbdawger

hi welki, wv and crossy

8:19 pm

welki

hey dawg

8:19 pm

crosshair

howdy lbd

8:21 pm

dianedecoder

mine are similar welki... except I don't put anything resembling tomato in mine... and I do put in onion. I also soak mine overnight , and then bring to a gentle boil with a tsp. of soda, ( sweetens them ) then assemble and cook in a brown crockery beanpot. I quit using salt pork as sometimes it was TOO salty, sometimes not enough

8:22 pm

welki

baking soda and a little bit of vinegar

8:23 pm

welki

i put one nice squeeze of ketchup in them - i thought they needed some color :)

8:23 pm

dianedecoder

:-) you got it ! .... and have to keep skimming off that foam.

8:23 pm

welki

and i cook mine in a dutch oven

8:24 pm

dianedecoder

sorry... I just saw that you put in onion too

8:25 pm

welki

pssst - soaking beans is for the young and culinary inclined - i used canned organic navy beans for this batch (only because 'organic' was all they had in the store)

8:25 pm

dianedecoder

Yummmmm... however they're done.

8:25 pm

welki

i stopped soaking beans ...hmmm, 15 yrs ago

8:26 pm

dianedecoder

If you don't presoak them though, they take forever to cook .... I use the white pinto beans... maybe that's the difference.

8:26 pm

welki

i guess if i was making a huge batch, i'd use dry - too expensive otherwise (and yes, you need to soak them - even if you boil them twice, they take too long)

8:26 pm

lbdawger

the only time i use dried beans is to blind bake a crust.

8:26 pm

dianedecoder

Yours are already precooked. .... I have another recipe that uses several types of canned beans... wonderful in the slow cooker.

8:27 pm

welki

i used to have a jar of those beans, too -- for pie crusts :)

8:27 pm

dianedecoder

There's 20 of us when we all get together, ... never any left over to freeze or give away LOL

8:28 pm

lbdawger

that's a good sign for some good beans!

8:28 pm

welki

i loved cooking for crowds - jealous :D

8:30 pm

welki

we were up at the lake on friday, diane - had to bring the trailer back to town for some warranty work - not much snow left, strange winter

8:30 pm

Very strange winter... I keep waiting for something to happen !!

8:33 pm

welki

8:33 pm

dianedecoder

We are heading out to Victoria for 3 weeks , leaving Feb. 15.... Just wait.... it will then dump a ton of snow for our neighbors to contend with !! They get to use our snowblower though :-))
