Christine, that one can stand alone. It's hit the best-seller list again, in paperback.
12:08 am
Christine
Okay, then I'll go ahead and read it; however, tomorrow I pick up 22 books at the library, so it'll be a couple of weeks before I get to Mr.Taylor.
12:08 am

The first two are "The Irish Country Doctor" and "The Irish Country Christmas."

sorry to hear it hasn't been solved yet. Tough to live in a tense atmosphere.

we all make our choices, and I made mine.....
6:00 am

I will ke4 hoping for a kind of solution though... things haven't always been this bad. It would be nice to have a relatively peaceful situation, without the nonstop tension.
6:04 am

I am looking forward to crazy-head puppy boy seeing his first snow. He bites the rain, so I guess will be ecstatic with snow

no matter how old or young they are, that is just heartbreaking to hear. My Mom had twins a year before she died; they were premature; but back then they didn't have any NICU or such for sick babies (they lived just a day or 2). We still remember them though....
9:35 am
Nef
bye sue. Take care!
9:36 am
sprite
that is really sad, Nef. Of course you remember them... they are part of your family anyway.
9:37 am
Nef
I was 7 at the time; my younger sister (by a year) doesn't remember much of our Mom; but she does remember the twins. Isn't that odd?
9:38 am
sprite
not sure if that is odd... losing siblings is such an intense experience, so much emotions through the whole household. I could imagine it made a deep impression on her.

thanks guys. would not have a clue on how to do that!
9:46 am

thank you both! Never heard of that nor seen it before.
9:46 am

it is toughish, Nef, especially the last bit.
9:46 am

the fungus has appeared in babble grids before, but I always thought it was a cancer, indeed

3:56 pm
MollyL
You never know with West. : D
3:56 pm
smores

3:56 pm
westford
you always need smores
3:57 pm
westford
oh soodle you pore thang
3:57 pm
hego
graham cracker toasted marshmallow and choclit
3:57 pm
MollyL
Okay, first of all, you don't have graham crackers over there. Y'all insist on calling them digestive biscuits. Smores are a graham cracker square with a square of chocolate and a roasted marshmallow inside, topped with another graham crcker.
3:57 pm
westford
someone tell her
3:58 pm
westford
gooey and good
3:58 pm
smores
take a graham, put a roasted marshmellow on it, put about a 1/3 a hershey bar and then another graham...yummmmm
3:58 pm
MollyL
Next time you are in San Francisco guzzling chowder, have someone make you a s'more.
3:58 pm
westford
has to be roasted over an open fire
3:59 pm
Soodle
You see, Graham Crackers??? Sweet or savory? I'm lost!
3:59 pm
westford
and the name is..because you always want s'more
3:59 pm
MollyL
Now I know what I'm sending you to thank you for the can o'luck.
4:00 pm
smores
teehee - must still be thinking of laced brownies...I spelled mellow instead of mallow
4:00 pm
Soodle
LOL Molls - Just send a ticket!!!
4:00 pm
MollyL
I trust y'all over the ponders can get Hershey bars and marshmallows?
4:00 pm
westford
now I'm singing Donovan
4:01 pm
Soodle
Head hanging in shame. Hershey cannont be got in the wilderness they call Ireland....
4:01 pm
hego
any milk chocolate then
4:01 pm
MollyL
Oh jeeze. I'll send a whole damn s'mores making kit then.
4:01 pm
hego
they do exist Molly
4:02 pm
hego
I can't spell anymore!!
4:02 pm
Soodle
BUT!!! I was kissed by the God they call Hershey whenever I was in the US.
4:03 pm
westford
cadbury fruit and nut bars are heaven
4:03 pm
smores
as are dove caramel
4:04 pm
Soodle
'Kissed by the God they call Hershey'. Jeepers! They should give me a free box, just for that!
4:04 pm
MollyL
Yes, but the "kits" have substandard chocolate and mallows.
4:06 pm
westford
I can see soodle making a camp fire in her living room
4:07 pm
MollyL
West, do you know nothing about Irish women? She will roast her mallow over the same peat fire that she kettled the Irish stew in. : D
4:07 pm
westford
faith it's right you are molly
4:07 pm
Soodle
Westford.... Cadbury chocolate is devine. And their fruit and nut is deviner (?).... I will happily send you a bar or two, if you would like?
4:07 pm
MollyL
Soodle, we represented in the grid the other day. Wirra.
4:08 pm
westford
that's so nice soodle..but we can get them here
4:08 pm
westford
I'd rather go there and get one in person
4:08 pm
MollyL
What kind of civilized society doesn't sell graham crackers and Hershey bars?
4:09 pm
westford
they have Guiness and Tullamore Dew
4:09 pm
Soodle
Seriously, Molls? Wirra is a word?? What about Musha musha (which I have been intoning a lot recently..)
4:09 pm
hego
what's a musha musha?
4:10 pm
MollyL
Yep, with a definition and everything.
4:10 pm

smores
was stuck with a stupid de4
4:12 pm
Soodle
Bye (((Hego)))))))
4:12 pm
MollyL
Musha doesn't translate well. I think the way Soodle is using it, it's an expression of annoyance.
4:12 pm
Soodle
WooHoo Smores!!!!
4:13 pm
westford
is the u long or short?
4:13 pm
Soodle
And you are right Molly. Its a sort of Irish Tsk Tsk.

You know what Westford? I don't envy your girl. At my age, I reckon I have earned a comfy bed, a private bathroom and my privacy. Viva la youth and all that, but... give me my home comforts... :-)

4:34 pm
Focal
Bon appetit Smores
4:34 pm
smores
Tilapia, corn and rice
4:34 pm

For those who are used to using Lickety's list, Dee's is easier to follow.

smores

4:34 pm
westford
sounds wonderful..we had tilapia a few days ago
4:34 pm
smores
thank BR you also

lynxxx
waiting for Soodles news
4:35 pm
o-o
Lickety's is best for me.
4:36 pm
MollyL
Sorry, didn't finish my thought. Dee's is easier to follow than BrandyJack's.
4:36 pm
Soodle
Focal heard me on the radio the other day, on a quiz. I happened to win... A weekend in a most delectable hotel.
4:37 pm
lynxxx
that sounds rather ungracious Molly
4:37 pm
westford
How wonderful Soodle !! May we all come with ?
4:37 pm
Focal
Soodle is being modest - this was on the National Airwaves, and she wiped the floor with her opponents!
4:37 pm
lynxxx
How lovely Soodle - a weekend of indulgence!
4:37 pm
MollyL
I wasn't trying to be ungracious. I'm outta here.
4:37 pm
Focal
And it's a very posh hotel. VERY posh.
4:40 pm
Soodle
I was fretting about not being posh enough for this particular hotel, and Focal advised me to say 'Air Hair Lair' to everybody I met. I'm practising frantically......... LOL
4:40 pm
Focal
Sounding good already Soodle!
4:41 pm
westford
you just be soodle and you will be the best
4:43 pm
Soodle
......sadly, 'My Husband and I'....is not an option...(wicked Soodle grin...)
4:43 pm
lynxxx

4:45 pm
westford
like a mouse?
4:45 pm
Soodle
Lyn... I was wondering how somebody who was du 6/33 is not a du**/ee....
4:45 pm
Focal
That's it. My mojo done gone left me, so I'm gonna done gone hit the hay. Night night Babblers. Slán
4:46 pm

4:47 pm
westford

4:47 pm
Soodle
If its of any interest to anybody, Focal and I were in school together!
4:48 pm
westford
old friends are the best, aren't they?
4:48 pm
westford
did she know the guy from Raheeny?
4:49 pm
westford
I probably didn't spell it correctly
4:49 pm
westford
and didn't mean to suggest you're both old..more like friends you've known for a long time
4:50 pm
Soodle
Westford, I am currently holding 'auditions' (!) for suitable company for the posh weekend.........
4:50 pm
Focal
We're ancient Westford, and now I'm back to find out WHICH guy from Raheny?
4:51 pm
westford
so there were lots of them?
4:51 pm
Focal
O ooh that came out all wrong! I don't mean to suggest that there were lots of guys from Raheny....
4:51 pm
Focal
I should stop digging now....
4:52 pm
lynxxx
lost for words?
4:52 pm
westford
oh soodle you have a country full of Irish men to choose from
4:52 pm
westford
it doesn't get any better than that
4:53 pm
lynxxx
except for all the irish men over here - we seem surrounded by them
4:53 pm
Focal
Still there Soodle, or lost in recollections?
4:53 pm
westford
I think I'd like that
4:54 pm
westford
I think she's trying to talk to us but her computer won't let her
4:54 pm
Soodle
Good grief! Bless me Babblers, for I have sinned.............
4:54 pm
Focal
How many times my child ? !!!
4:55 pm
westford
Yay she's back !!

4:56 pm
Soodle
Oh heck.... even the puter is against me..........
5:00 pm
Soodle
I think I will do what any sensible woman would do, and bow out gracefully, without incriminating anybody.
5:00 pm
Focal
OK, you're not going to spill the bean on the man from Raheny, so I'll go back to my hot water bottle and hit the scratcher
5:00 pm
lynxxx
scratcher?
5:01 pm
Focal
It's a colloquial (sp?) term for bed. Bed filled with bedbugs by the sound of it!
5:01 pm
Soodle
Thank You BabbleRabble. My designated decoy........
5:02 pm
Focal
BabbleRabble seems to have a bad case of alphabetitis. Pray for a swift recovery!
5:03 pm
lynxxx
I don't know y
5:04 pm
Focal
OK I'm no espionage expert, but the W was definitely capitalized, and all the rest were lower case. Hmmmm. Could there be a message there.....
5:05 pm
Focal
Babble with Tourettes?
5:05 pm
o-o
the offending post is now gone
5:06 pm
Soodle
DO NOT BELIEVE that Focal is not into espionage! She extracted info this evening that was totally classified!
5:08 pm

'Why should everything be all right'? Indeed.I seem to irritate you, BabbleRabble. Its not intentional. I apologise.
5:30 pm
Soodle
Well, I guess its time for bed. Good night all, and once again, thanks for your company. See you soon.

may I have a clue for the ca 6 please?
6:13 pm
stidmama
I am going to announce while there is nobody here that I am the WORST mother in the world -- told stidkid#2 that playing video games today was a bad decision, since playing video games is the reason he is more than a week behind in his schoolwork... he stormed off to his room. *sigh*
6:14 pm
stidmama
wish I could help, bugs.
6:14 pm
Bugsaw
Hi stid. Oh my goodness what a blow to his ego -- reality. Please don't worry about him. It is a natural consequence
6:14 pm
crosshair
lol,poor momma
6:15 pm
crosshair
use the video games as a reward then,extended time for assignments done and perhaps a new game bestowed for high grades
6:15 pm
stidmama
AND he won't be getting signed up for the tournament next weekend that he was thinking he was going to... for the same reason. He's going to be very unhappy for a while.
6:16 pm
Bugsaw
I made the kid I tutor "stay after school" yesterday for 20 minutes since he wasted so much of my time fooling around all morning. He was not impressed either but he turned on the juice in overtime and we left friends. It is life.
6:16 pm
stidmama
Problem is, cross -- that I go to sleep HOURS before he does. And his father while agreeing that the games are not optimal does not proactively support better decision-making.
6:16 pm
crosshair
thats what we did.a b or better= 1 new game.all weekly home work done = saturaday game fest
6:17 pm
stidmama
Good for you, Bugs -- I did that to one of my students this past week. Amazing how quickly the classwork gets done when recess time is wasted!
6:18 pm
stidmama
it's a good concept, cross -- I am just going to continue to be firm. And mean. *stern mama look*
6:18 pm
stidmama
it's raining here, bugs... you?
6:18 pm
Bugsaw
Remember that our job is to help him know HOW to make good decisions. You have done that. If he chooses to make poor ones, that is not your problem. It is how he will come to know what he can handle and what he can't. As long as he is at home, he has a soft place to land
6:19 pm
stidmama
yesterday during a dry moment I climbed on the roof and cleaned out the gutters. I have all the garden supplies under cover, and now just have to wait for a dry day to begin pruning the fruit trees. First year I have felt "ready" for the autumn!
6:19 pm
Bugsaw
Yes, we are finally getting rain but not as much as the west coast. They have a weather warning because so much will come down they could get landslides or flooding.
6:20 pm
Bugsaw
It has been too dry for too long and the fish are having trouble spawning
6:20 pm
stidmama
thanks bugs *holding on to hope* it's hard sometimes because a) I know he can do really well when he wants to, b) I want him to get a good start in life and c) I want him to be happy. On the other hand, he slept (literally) until noon, so that ate up a lot of his discretionary time.
6:21 pm
stidmama
yes, tonight and tomorrow they are talking about a lot of wind and rain for us, as well. I expect the Skokomish will flood (it often does) and create problems for travel up the Sound.
6:22 pm
stidmama
I saw some fishermen with poles on a local creek yesterday -- non-tribal members have to use poles during the run, and of course the poor fish really aren't interested in eating much by this point. I am glad the tides have been high to ease the journey into the creeks at least.
6:22 pm
Bugsaw
those were HIS decisions. If he doesn't learn that he can't do that without stressing himself when he is young, he will have to learn it when he lives alone and has a job. There will be worse consequences then. It is all relative. Relax and let him find his way. You know that he has a good heart and will not get lost. Have faith
6:22 pm
stidmama
*breathing* yes ma'am, bugs, ma'am!
6:23 pm
stidmama
I am glad I have wise friends who have survived these moments already.
6:24 pm
stidmama
Oh. and the other stidkid tells me by email (three hours ago) that he has a virus too (I am not doing much today) and taking tylenol. I wrote back and asked him to call and check in... He's on his own at the moment, house-sitting so no one else where he is to check on him.
6:24 pm
Bugsaw
AND my boys still love me for giving them the skills but not taking responsibility for their decisions.
6:25 pm
stidmama
:-) Your boys were so lucky to have a level-headed mom! I am far too reactive... I am lucky that my mother is much like you.
6:25 pm
ch1212
hi stidmama and bugs. Stid, we have wind and rain here too. I just got in from collecting signatures outside since 9 a.m. - brrrrrr.
6:26 pm
stidmama
OH! ch, I will be in Seattle (which I know isn't exactly "right next door") in November for a Social Studies conference... would you like to meet up with me that weekend?
6:26 pm
Bugsaw
Carol Burnett, the comedienne, had a daughter who got lost for a while and she said, "Sometimes, you have to love your kids enough to let them hate you for a little while." I never forgot that. It gave me the strength to keep going.
6:26 pm
Bugsaw
Hi ch! I haven't chatted with you in ages
6:27 pm
stidmama
I adore Carol Burnett. She is a wise and compassionate woman.
6:27 pm
ch1212
Yes, if I can! Email me your dates. We've got in-laws coming next month, and I'll be visiting daughter in Boise, but hope the dates can mesh. ( I too, adore Carol B)
6:28 pm
stidmama
Nov 16, 17 and maybe the 18th (things wind up Sunday morning) if I can figure out how to afford a hotel. Otherwise, I will be commuting on the 16th and 17th
6:29 pm
ch1212
:( That's the weekend Beloved's parents are here. And I would offer you a room, except it's a 90 minute drive to downtown Seattle from where we live. But let's keep trying --- we'll meet up one of these days!
6:30 pm
ch1212
(I shouldn't say ''weekend' because they will be here for a week.)
6:31 pm
stidmama
bummer. That's okay, though we are going to be up there occasionally -- we also have tickets to the Seattle Symphony pops series (we go Saturday afternoons) so if you wanted we could get together one of those days, too. And we get a discount on extra tickets, if you saw a pops concert you wanted to attend... (hint, hint)
6:32 pm
stidmama
My Tom's parents never visit anymore. I have stopped inviting them, he doesn't think to, and when I suggest he go see them (other side of the state) he never does.
6:33 pm
ch1212
LOL! We do like the pops concerts, and an afternoon one sounds lovely. We will scheme and make it happen :) I have to leave again soon to go back to Beloved. We're collecting signatures to keep our local police force.
This will be the first time his parents have come to visit us in 8+ years.
6:34 pm
stidmama
I hope you are successful. SO glad you were online at the same time as me today!
6:34 pm
crosshair
my beloved lost her father just over a year ago att77 years of age.m.i.l is 75 and on O2 24/6 both of them were 60 year smokers.we visit.time is short and you never know what will be a week or a month from now
6:34 pm
ch1212
Me too --- I was on KING 5 news a couple weeks ago on the police issue.
6:35 pm
stidmama
oh gee, cross, that is so sad... I am lucky that most of my relatives who used to smoke stopped long ago.
6:35 pm
ch1212
Crossy, that is good of you.
6:35 pm
stidmama
*runs off to look up news archive*
6:36 pm
crosshair
sadly they started in the 40,s and by the time the surgeon general spoke up in the 60,s,they were allready die-hard 20 year smokers
6:38 pm
stidmama
my one grandfather died of lung cancer, but that could have been caused by working as a carpenter and painter for an airline most of his life, too... He had quit smoking for twenty years or more by the time he was diagnosed.
6:39 pm
stidmama
does anyone have the CA 6? both bugs and I are stuck...
6:39 pm
crosshair
lol.i had been quit for a year before my first cancer showed up
6:39 pm
stidmama
I know you've battled cancer a lot cross, you must be a very strong person.
6:40 pm
crosshair
i have it ca 6/24 but tough to clue

yes stid. Where is BabbleRabble when we need him? He is a great cluer

Bugsaw
I have enuff confusion
6:52 pm
periwinkle
was hoping cos was on and that he had watched or Molly
6:52 pm
MollyL
Hi Peri, I have watched. I think it's a "deal with the devil" story. As in, Gavin is the devil and he's made certain deals with people who now owe him payback.
6:53 pm
periwinkle
that is what I was thinking, Molls, glad you think so too. it is kind of a creepy show
6:53 pm
Bugsaw
I try to avoid the creepy ones like Criminal Minds or Grimm
6:54 pm
SeaSpray
Love Criminal Minds and Shemar Moore lol
6:54 pm
MollyL
I don't think it's very well written, and that may be it's downfall.
6:55 pm
periwinkle

6:55 pm

6:55 pm
MollyL
Shemar Moore. Loved him since Young & The Restless.

6:56 pm
Minveryork
Hello to my fellow babblers!How is everyone doing today
6:56 pm

I watched Nashville and Chicago Fire and liked them both. Chicago Fire more than Nashville. The country music gets on my nerves.
6:56 pm

By the way, congratulations to all the finishers!Way to go

I like some country music.

There are definitely some you could find via typo in this grid.

hello fellow Babblers, I'm vacationing in Hawaii and think I had my first nene sighting!

you will never miss that word again Luv

Good for you Luv. I never saw a nene when we went to Hawaii last year.

Congratulations wht on your fireworks display!Way to go!

Minveryork
Hello LuvWordGames! How are you? Welcome to the grid
7:20 pm
wht
We stayed 5 nights in Honolulu but we took a day trip to the Big Island to tour the volcanos and then spent 6 nights on Maui.
7:21 pm
LuvWordGames
we're on Maui now and were on Kauai last week. Big difference between Honolulu and Maui
7:21 pm
Minveryork
When I went to Hawaii, I didn't know about nenes yet so I do not know if I saw one one or not. I did see peacocks.
7:22 pm
wht
We loved everything about it except the plane flights.
7:22 pm
LuvWordGames
peacocks are beautiful birds. There are wild chickens all over Kauai and you get woken up in the mornings by the roosters
7:22 pm
Minveryork
I am missing a four letter word.Is there a way for me to tell which one from babble stats if I am not listing?
7:22 pm
LuvWordGames
yes, long plane flights, 15 hrs. for us from Michigan
7:23 pm
wht
We flew from Boston and stayed over for a couple of nights in San Francisco on the way out.
7:24 pm
LuvWordGames
good idea, wht. We didn't have a direct flight which I preferred but only a 3 hr. layover in LA
7:24 pm
wht
Flew pretty much straight back. I am not sure how long it was, except we left in the afternoon and it was morning when we landed.
7:25 pm
wht
We had a layover in San Francisco which was about long enough for us to have dinner.
7:25 pm
LuvWordGames
yep, long but worth it for all the beauty I've seen so far!
7:26 pm
wht
We'd certainly go back.
7:27 pm
Minveryork
D's Done! 7 left
7:28 pm
wht
There are still some things we would like to see in Honolulu but we would be sure to spend time on one of the other islands.
7:29 pm
LuvWordGames
yes, we can tell we won't be able to see all the things we want to this trip and hope to be able to make a trip again in the future
7:29 pm
wht
Maybe we would go to Lanai. We had a waitress on Maui who said that Lanai is where she goes when Maui is too hectic and she wants to chill out.

8:07 pm
rururocks
uh oh..
8:07 pm
rururocks
when was that?
8:08 pm
MollyL
When I said something about Dee's list being easier to follow than BrandyJack's. I should have chosen different words, it was no slam to BrandyJack.
8:09 pm
torgone
People sure raise a stink about those lists ..
8:09 pm
welki
hi, babblers!
8:10 pm
rururocks
i'm grateful anyone does and posts a list .. especially when there is a stinker grid like today's .
8:10 pm

My sentiments exactly ruru. Molly I am glad that you put the list in your profile so regularly.
8:11 pm
rururocks
I thought list comparisons were so yesterday..lol
8:11 pm
MollyL
Again, my comment was not meant to be ungracious. Just that some people prefer one style of list over another.
8:11 pm

oh.... so what was the harm in that?

Ah4/6, listen up babblers! I've just oohed and ah5/14 over my fireworks.Now I will ai4/5 you with my story of clues.I am not an av4/8 fan of singer Mariah Carey I refuse to watch her music vi4/8os. Just because she has a whole he 4/6 of money doesn't make her better than anyone else.I don't think she has a pretty fa4/8. The hair on her he 4/6 is nothing to admire. She is so self-centered. She does not have a me4/9 demeanor. She flaunts her fa4/8 everywhere.She is not one to hi 4/6 from the me5/14. It was not a good id4/5 to hire her to be on American Idle. It is such a sh5/14, when they could've hired a better person. I sh 4/8er at the thought of her being a judge. I'm also sk4/9tical that she will be a good judge.She thinks she should be the only di4/8 on American Idle. She believes Nicki Minaj will da 4/7en her popularity. When they ma 4/6 her a judge I decided to no longer ke4/9 on watching Idle.I won't even take a pe 4/9 at it. I hope they tell her to take a hi4/9 at the end of the season.If I saw her in a ca4/7,I wouldn't ask for her au4/5graph.I will not dig de 4/5 into my wallet to pay for one of her concerts. I hope that Nick Cannon du4/8s her. If he du6/33 her, she would deserve it. She better not be called da 4/6 Mariah Carey in the future. Hubby is being a thorn in my si 4/5 waiting for computer. I'm going to go watch the Sally Field movie "Soapdi4/6".Goodnight babblers!

Sorry, but I have to say it. Several hours ago, one person made one comment that rubbed the wrong way. I get it. But I don't get why we should still be dwelling on it. It just seems like it keeps the drama going way past its useful life. Personally, I like the game, I like the chat, I like the people. If someone makes me mad, I'll tell them, but move on. I might not chat with them as much later, but that's my business alone. Can't we just keep things more positive?

Okay, ru, then I guess I'm just wrong. And nobody has any reason for feeling uncomfortable.... It just seems like we get sensitive to other people getting sensitive. And 9 times out of 10 when I come into this game lately, we have some sort of drama. I miss the friendliness we used to have.
9:01 pm
rururocks
me too.. but this wasn't a big deal and it was made to be one.
9:02 pm
rururocks
Most everybody gets along here..
9:03 pm
nrkii
yes, with a few exceptions, but those exceptions really stand out... sigh... and I just want to play the game and read your bad jokes
9:03 pm
rururocks
that's why the sensitive room was created nrkii :D
9:03 pm
stidmama
usually that is what has happened, it seems, ruru -- and comments misinterpreted by people who were not being addressed. Not like when I grumped at BR years ago and we worked it out just fine. He grumped back, I volleyed...
9:03 pm
welki
i scrolled back and read the chat - there wasn't a big deal made, one comment to and one comment from - and that was hours ago. oh well - there was no grey's anatomy this week
9:03 pm

Pam here. I lurk because I grew tired of the "sensitive room" this, and the he said/she said that. So many "hard feelings" it's hard to just word game. I've been playing since October of 2004, and some of the joy has gotten sucked out.
9:04 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
best to ignore trolls (and when someone is being irrational and ruining the chat, same technique works too)
9:04 pm

Please, can we abolish the sensitive room once and for all?
9:04 pm
stidmama
hey pam ((hugs)) I agree. I show myself when people from "way back" are on, and rarely otherwise.
9:04 pm

Welki, i think the boot should not be given to joy-suckers alone. But a nice nudge, too, to people lording over ohters in chog and then crying "woe is me." Lurking has its advantages; you see the posturing. No wonder more people don't chat...

11:00 pm
nrkii
just wandering back in for a few minutes
11:01 pm
westford
I'm sorry I didn't understand..stupid or dumb?
11:01 pm
Nef
no west; he had oral steroids in August and they really helpeda lot for an MS flair up; but they also relieved his back problems for a while too.
11:01 pm
westford
and hi nrkii
11:01 pm
westford
thank goodness
11:01 pm
pam
hi again, nrkii/nellie!
11:02 pm
Nef
ME, westford. I get into these situations and I go "how did that happen?" Sometimes I really wonder..
11:02 pm
nrkii
Just jumped in to check if my pumpkin chocolate chip muffin recipe was in my icon. It is! It's that most wonderful time of the year.
11:03 pm
westford
I"m going to look
11:03 pm
pam
Sigh... muffins.....
11:04 pm
nrkii
I got that recipe from a blogger several years ago. My paper copy is well-worn. LOL.
11:04 pm
Nef
YUMMY sounding, nrkii! I'd love it but it probably wouldn't be something I could leave alone
11:04 pm
pam
LOL. I like your message, too. Icon messages that are veiled attacks on chog are most displeasing.
11:05 pm
westford
I copied the recipe..have to get some pumpkin tomorrow
11:06 pm
nrkii
Yes, it's getting on my nerves, Pam. And today seems to be my day for speaking my mind.
11:06 pm
westford
my husband is a pumpkin-holic
11:06 pm
nrkii
Westford, they are rather addictive. I only make them when I know I'm having company, or I bring them to work.
11:07 pm
Nef
good for you nrkii!
11:07 pm
westford
I've been saving Babbler's recipes ..have quite a few now
11:08 pm
nrkii
I need to look for Babbler's recipes. I forgot he put them in there. Some of them require actual cooking though, and that's a bit of a challenge for me.
11:08 pm
westford
he who ?
11:08 pm
westford
and where ?
11:08 pm
nrkii
I cook a few things really well, but I don't find joy in cooking the way some do. I wish I did.
11:09 pm
nrkii
Oh sorry, am I confused? What do you mean about Babbler's recipes?
11:09 pm
westford
I like to cook..don't like cleaning up
11:09 pm
Nef
what do you mean "actual cooking" nrkii? Don't your muffins required real cooking too? (I can't bake unless the recipe allows for lots of slack
11:10 pm
westford
I meant whenever a member of the babble community puts a recipe in a profile or mentions one I put it in a folder on my desk top
11:10 pm
nrkii
Nef, I sometimes get paralized by the thought of having to chop and saute and roast...
11:10 pm

11:10 pm
westford
I didn't know there was already a file
11:11 pm
Nef
DH was the main cook in our house for many years. I can get food on the table in under an hour (usually under 30 minutes) but it's out of necessity and not for fun
11:11 pm
westford
d and high card
11:11 pm
nrkii
westford, Ohhhhhh, I was thinking of one specific babbler (BR) who I thought periodically did put recipes in his profile... maybe it was Tor... maybe someone else... it's late, I'm sleepy :)
11:11 pm
westford
and Idi Amin Da**
11:12 pm
nrkii
Nef, and I, living on my own, am often content to eat a bowl of cereal rather than cook. But when I do cook, I usually go all out.

11:29 pm
Nef
bleugirl; I've always blamed my computer for not letting me put certain words in before I put in something simpler. I never thought that Babble would do that! (looking for a new excuse for not getting words in here) :-)
11:29 pm
