She's a wonderful cook... baker, etc. And I'm not so much into baking but I consider myself a good cook too. And she agrees... says I'm great. But she has to hover around when I'm making a meal and she's like... "are you SURE you want to use that/do it THAT way?" Ugh. :P Just leave me to it!

And what do you buy there?
8:19 am
uusue2

noodles and spices that we can't get at home (although our local markets are getting more international), plus whatever captures my eye - I am a rather adventurous eater. And we can always get sushi. It's more like a whole shopping mall - big supermarket plus several smaller specialty shops, and fun to visit even if we don't buy much.

12:50 pm
GreyWoulf

It has been a loong time since I last chatted -- just too much going on at work -- by the time I get home, I don't want to do more than look at pictures if I get to turn on the computer
12:50 pm
GreyWoulf

Although, my newest hobby is trolling through Kickstarter.com to see if there are any interesting projects to support
12:51 pm
rururocks

wow.. I"m glad you have the time for that
12:53 pm
GreyWoulf

it is something simple to do at night before I crawl into bed.. doesn't take much time and you can find some really interesting ideas... I tend to focus on the games, personally

jmcnrick

i had about 6 months that i couldn't play words with friends to save my life
1:42 pm
jmcnrick

i can do it now but have to wait for people to start the first game as i have no way to search for them
1:43 pm
hego

my daughter quit. Said it was too much pressure and not enough fun.
1:43 pm
jmcnrick

and my frustration level is so high with hidden chronicles that i am about to just send gifts and ignore the rest. . .and eventually quit
1:44 pm
jmcnrick

she quit words with friends?
1:44 pm
hego

takes forever to build something there.
1:44 pm
hego

no she phased out.
1:45 pm
jmcnrick

oh it is perfect for me as it gives me a few minutes of something other than work
1:45 pm
jmcnrick

where as when i come to babbleland. . . well i get too caught up usually in conversation. . .
1:45 pm
hego

a little break
1:45 pm
hego

true...
1:46 pm
jmcnrick

i was looking and i think you can go to your fb profile and remove apps so they quit annoying you
1:46 pm
hego

1:46 pm
MollyL

<--Has never understood the appeal of Facebook or Facebook games...Square peg
1:47 pm
jmcnrick

like when you try a game and you decide you don't like it
1:47 pm
hego

I enjoy playing with friends from here.
1:47 pm
jmcnrick

my sister and my son are not fans either molls. . .

1:51 pm
jmcnrick

1:52 pm
MollyL

1:52 pm
jmcnrick

1:52 pm
hego

1:52 pm
MollyL

And what does one do in a "garden of time"?
1:53 pm
hego

waste time
1:53 pm
jmcnrick

have you ever play in the newspaper the game where you look for objects hidden in a picture. . . highlights for children for grown ups
1:53 pm
jmcnrick

but there is a plot that is mildly interesting
1:53 pm
hego

it's a hidden object game, but there's more it.
1:54 pm
hego

some of the art is very pretty.
1:54 pm
MollyL

I loved Highlights find the hidden picture when I was a kid.
1:54 pm
hego

and you have to know all sorts of things tosolve the puzzle.
1:55 pm
jmcnrick

there are several of them on fb and the internet in general but some of them have annoying twists and turns like hidden chronicles which makes you way to dependent on other people
1:55 pm
hego

It can be challenging.
1:55 pm
jmcnrick

part of what makes it interesting to me is that they change what they call things from time to time
1:55 pm
hego

I agree about HC Je.

3:13 pm

redturtlehead

Soodle, I am still thinking of running something over there....my thing is that cities in the "old world" tend to have cobbled streets and those really hurt me to run on ..
3:16 pm
redturtlehead

I am seriously thinking of napping again as well. but its close to the end of the day now. I should do some cleaning...
3:17 pm
Soodle

Well Red, for every cobbled street, there are 10 non-cobbled ones. I am not a runner, but the cobbled streets and high heels are a recipe for disaster. They can be avoided!!
3:18 pm
Soodle

Actually... those words I just typed 'I am not a runner' could very well qualify as the understatement of the year....
3:27 pm
redturtlehead

Indeed, it just depends on where the race courses go.
