7:34 am

mamcitadbh

And fresh eggs from a friend

7:34 am

mamcitadbh

I think the oatmeal sounds good to teach

7:34 am

mamcitadbh

7:44 am

Scrabbler

Plain Greek yogurt + blueberries + chia seeds + flaxseeds + sunflower seeds + spoonful of stevia sugar

7:47 am

mamcitadbh

7:48 am

Scrabbler

I use a variety of berries with yogurt.

7:48 am

smores

Aloyisius

7:55 am

mamcitadbh

Sounds good aloy, except for the lima beans

7:56 am

smores

Bacon and fried potatoes sounded good but was too lazy :)

7:56 am

mamcitadbh

I am actually not much of a breakfast food kinda gal. I often eat dinner leftovers for breakfast and the salmon loaf sounds GREAT

8:00 am

RoundBarn

hj bichon I've been trying to remember the places I want to see--the town is Bourton -on-the water now on the web, people say the minature village isn't worth the cost but it was to me and my grand daughter, there is a miniature of the vilage inside the village--but it's the river and peacefulness there

8:01 am

BzznBea

Stats for the O in second column?

8:01 am

Scrabbler

HiRoundBArn

8:01 am

Scrabbler

Do not take work. Relax and have fun, RoundBarn.

8:03 am

BzznBea

Got it. That gives me NBT and NBS.

8:03 am

Hi RD, we think we will make it to Minter Lovell on our trip

8:03 am

smores

wooohoo Bzzn

8:04 am

Aloyisius

do any of you understand Sponge Bob Square Pants? The characters look a bit "off" to me, and my 5 yr old gdaughter wants to watch the show all the time..

8:04 am

RoundBarn

bichon try to see morris dancingthey often perform at pubs in the summer. We know the Wantage group--my sister fiddled with them, way back

8:04 am

bichon

I've heard of that. They do it in the US. in some places

8:05 am

Scrabbler

Aloy, I watched it for 10 minutes once--utter stupidity.

8:05 am

smores

lol...Sponge Bob is more than a "bit"off

8:05 am

BzznBea

I think the humor in it is more for adults. But kids do love it, Aloy.

8:05 am

wvteach

have a Morris dancing group here in our town - husband and wife are from England

8:05 am

mamcitadbh

Sponge Bob-don't know much about but do know it is popular with the cherubs

8:05 am

RoundBarn

also don't miss the prehistoric white horse, and walk down the ridgeway a mile to the longbarrow Tolkien used in LOR

8:05 am

Aloyisius

am wondering, Scrabbs.. think I'll research them a bit on the internet.. don't understand..

8:06 am

RoundBarn

where is your town teach, I'd go out of my way to see them

8:06 am

Scrabbler

Kids are best kept away from TV, videogames

8:06 am

bichon

will try to see everything. so little time

8:06 am

Aloyisius

abcmouse.com has lots of learning activities

8:07 am

BzznBea

Suzy Singer is ready to get started this morning.

8:07 am

bichon

Scrabs, in theory that is a good idea, but somehow, no matter how hard you try, it's so easy to turn on the set and get some quiet for a time

8:07 am

wvteach

they are both on the faculty at West Virginia University - just do the dancing at festivals - are usually in Charleston WV over the Memorial Day weekend at the Vandalia Festival

8:07 am

Scrabbler

Learning stuff is good. It's the "popular" shows and games that are bad for kids' brains, adults too

8:08 am

RoundBarn

if you get to s Dorset--prob beyond your itinerary--it's startling to see the pregistoric Cerne Giant on the hillside--cut in chalk. Loverw would sleep on his you know what to ensure fertility. I lan to startle my friend.

8:08 am

mamcitadbh

That's why I stick to puzzles... ;)

8:08 am

BzznBea

I'm off to the sewing room...pfft!

8:08 am

wvteach

time to be off to be with my 2 year old grandson for the rest of the day - avoid Spongebob - but he knows of it

8:08 am

Scrabbler

Word puzzles, math puzzles, jigsaw puzzles--yay!

8:09 am

RoundBarn

In tthe 80's jokesters put a condom on him--must have taken many gunny sacks. (now that person will come on with snide comments.)

8:09 am

8:20 am

smores

it's a weird word

8:20 am

mamcitadbh

I have been trying every combination of endings with the beginning for a long time and...blank, will keep at it

8:20 am

smores

8:22 am

8:41 am

Yep...there are days in the summer if I must go out and take the bus that I feel like I'll go up in spontaneous human combustion.

8:41 am

8:43 am

Nef

My sister from Montana visited last week, the 18th -21st; and it was about 40 on Thursday, Friday we had 6 inches of snow and we had to cancel part of our plans; but by Sundayit was raining

8:44 am

MimiCat

We only get them about 4 times a year. We're in a 10-year drought here as well.

8:44 am

Nef

No thunderstorms? Wow. That's no fun....

8:45 am

TraderKate

:( looks like we're all getting really wacky weather i wonder how BR is doing - they were getting more snow his way

8:45 am

car.eeyore

Good morning!

8:45 am

MimiCat

We probably won't get rain again until July. The last time was in either January or February. Yep---I'd love to move for many reasons. Can't yet, though.

Hey car :)

8:46 am

MimiCat

Smores, I have a new great series on Netflix for you to watch---The Finder. Really good.

8:47 am

TraderKate

hahaha.. all those vowels and no "toea" to be found!!!

8:47 am

Nef

hi car (and everyone else I missed coming in)

8:47 am

smores

I've that Mim...was very disappointed they canceled it

8:48 am

car.eeyore

Hi nef!

8:48 am

car.eeyore

Hi smores!

8:48 am

smores

hmm...coulda swore I typed the word seen

8:48 am

MimiCat

I'm the kiss of death to shows, products, everything. If I like it, it will be gone!

8:49 am

Nef

if that's true, Mimi, I'm not going to tell you anything I like then! ;-)

8:50 am

TraderKate

mimi, if you live long enough, they will discontinue every single product you really like... i'm testament to that ;)

8:50 am

MimiCat

Very wise, Nef.

8:50 am

smores

It was a spin off from Bones...I thought it was a lot better than some of the other crap on TV

8:50 am

smores

lol...nef...good plan

8:51 am

MimiCat

It reminded me of The Glades---which I also loved and, I think, was also cancelled....see what I mean?

8:52 am

TraderKate

i liked the finder, remember it from the bones episodes.. are they still making it?

8:52 am

MimiCat

I've actually written companies asking them to bring back products I miss, e.g., Betty Crocker Noodles Romanoff and Pepperidge Farms Apricot-Raspberry bars. But they never do bring them back. :(

8:53 am

Judi

Perhaps you shoudl visit a gypsy to lift the curse, Mimi.

8:53 am

TraderKate

the noodles romanoff - just the noodles or the hamburger helper? they still make that, and it's dead easy to make from scrtch

8:53 am

car.eeyore

I would like Lipton Giggle Noodle Soup to come back.

8:53 am

MimiCat

I used to make a great chicken casserole with the Noodles Romanoff that just isn't the same without that sauce......woe is me.

8:53 am

car.eeyore

antra

8:53 am

car.eeyore

oops.

8:53 am

MimiCat

Good idea, Judi....she'd probably go out of business right after, though!

8:54 am

smores

Giggle Noodles ??? really

8:54 am

smores

teehee Mimi

8:54 am

MimiCat

Maybe I can substitute for that, Kate...will look for it. But the sauce with the other Romanoff was fabulous.

8:55 am

Judi

Wow. Flashback. I remember giggle noodles.

8:55 am

smores

"never heard of giggle noodles"

8:55 am

TraderKate

the romanoff is really just sour cream and cheese.. add a bit of garlic and onion poweder

8:55 am

car.eeyore

Yup! Was a staple in my house growing up, especially when were sick. My kids loved it too, but now it is gone. :( Noodles in the shapes of crescent moons and stars.

8:56 am

smores

a dry mix ?

8:57 am

smores

hmmmm...I know Campbells had some shaped noodle soups..

8:57 am

MimiCat

Do you know what kind of cheese, Kate? I may try to duplicate the taste. The casserole had that noodle mix (dry), chicken, broccoli, mushrooms, ripe olives and mushroom soup....better second day.

8:57 am

Nef

Mimi, did you write to the company and ask where these products are still being sold? Sometimes companies still sell certain products in one area but discontinue them in another (living here in the Twin Cities, we've toured Betty Crocker and General Mills and some products continue to be sold in some parts of the country but not others

8:57 am

car.eeyore

Yes. Cooked on the stove with some water. Had the delicious clump of seasoning that is found in their regular chicken noodle soup packets.

8:58 am

smores

guess I missed out..

8:58 am

MimiCat

Yes, Nef, I did write....they said it was gone. Just found out my favorite frozen lasagna, Bertolli, has been discontinued, too....see what I mean?!

8:59 am

TraderKate

cheddar mimi, but you can add a bit of blue, swiss, etc....

8:59 am

Nef

I've never heard of giggle noodle soup either

8:59 am

car.eeyore

Oh! There were heart shaped noodles too.

8:59 am

MimiCat

Can't blame me for those....I never tried them!

9:00 am

smores

sounds nice car...wonder why they stopped making them

9:01 am

smores

10:00 my time is up...have a wonderful day everyone

9:01 am

smores

BBL to finish :)

9:01 am

car.eeyore

In my ICU experience, a little bit of extra weight is good (10 -15 lbs or so) is good to have "on reserve" for illness; but after that it isn't good for a person. I'd like to know why extra weight always ends up around the waist instead of the ankles.

TraderKate

12:05 pm

Nef

and yes, you're correct about my od 5, TK

12:06 pm

hurshy

you name it - caterer not showing up - computer stuff - etc etc

12:06 pm

Nef

take a deep breath, relax, and be glad you're not the boss, hurshy!

12:06 pm

TraderKate

hurshy! i'm shocked!! such an attitude will get you into trouble ;)

12:08 pm

TraderKate

we could pack up some goodies from the penalty box and send them your way hurshy....so the caterer problem is solved ;)

12:08 pm

Nef

TK, would you really share your pecan pie with a workplace?

12:09 pm

TraderKate

only because it's hurshy and she's having a rough day otherwise, i would have to consider the matter very carefully...

12:09 pm

hurshy

my officemate really cares, when her stuff goes awry

12:10 pm

hurshy

i watch her and i think, stop caring so much! lol

12:10 pm

TraderKate

after careful consideration, i would share pecan pie with babblers, but NOT workplace (i can be very greedy and selfish when it comes to desserts, especially pecan pie)

12:11 pm

Nef

LOL! :-D

12:11 pm

TraderKate

well, we know you won't be growing any ulcers over this then hurshy :)

lilliann

yw. i thought you were ignoring me so i've got to say "whew" now :)

5:19 pm

Jillyjill

LOL...buried in grid...

5:19 pm

Jillyjill

how are you today lilliann?

5:19 pm

lilliann

either people have finished as it is a small grid or have their noses in it

5:20 pm

lilliann

i'm fine thank you jill.how are you?

5:20 pm

CadFan

Nose in - in between rounds of stipping kitchen cabinets

5:20 pm

lilliann

hi cad, you're a busy woman then

5:20 pm

Jillyjill

Done that before...quite a chore cadfan

5:22 pm

Alexis Elise

As a word lover I have to ask... what is stipping?

5:22 pm

Jillyjill

<----!!FW!! pretty unchallenging grid today...

5:22 pm

CadFan

tLOL - stipping is poorly typed stripping...

5:22 pm

72 Temple Owl

ah, the hog is beginning to fill

5:23 pm

lilliann

yay!wtg jill!

5:23 pm

Jillyjill

LOL...read right through that typo, as any good babbler does... ;)

5:23 pm

lilliann

hi alexis and TO :)

5:23 pm

72 Temple Owl

chog, even

5:23 pm

Alexis Elise

Ha! Got it. That is quite a job. Worth it when it's all done, though.

5:23 pm

Jillyjill

Hello alexis and TO, and cad fan

5:23 pm

Alexis Elise

Hi everyone!

5:23 pm

lilliann

72 Temple Owl

hello ae

5:24 pm

CadFan

Thanks to a broken water pipe - major flood, asbestos abatement... long story, we are gettng all new flooring and thus, need to paint - hubby would just have painted over cabinets - I said no way - thus am stripping and cleaning them

5:24 pm

MollyL

Alexis, that doesn't mean you aren't a good Babble player (not reading through the typo) : D

5:25 pm

lilliann

you've definitely been through it cad.i agree with the stripping even though it's a lot of work but it will be worth it in the end.men always want the quick and easiest ways

5:25 pm

Alexis Elise

Thanks Molly. There are always slang words on here that I don't understand... due to the mix of people from all different countries. I thought it was slang for something.

5:26 pm

lilliann

hi molly :)

5:26 pm

MollyL

There is so much about kitchen decor I don't know. For all I knew, stipping was some new decorating technique like stenciling. Hi L.

5:27 pm

72 Temple Owl

sounds like stippling

5:27 pm

lilliann

i must admit, at first i thought it was a paint effect but that's stippling

5:28 pm

nrkii

Hi all!

5:28 pm

Jillyjill

Well, must head out in a few minutes, meeting friends and we are walking to a local brewery.

5:28 pm

nrkii

jumping in to chog to casually use you for your word prowess (if you'll be so kind)... missing the O in the second column

5:30 pm

Jillyjill

Think it's od7/32....hello nrkii

5:30 pm

Jillyjill

or od5/12, more likely...

5:30 pm

nrkii

it was od7, thanks!!

5:31 pm

Jillyjill

And I must head out...

5:31 pm

nrkii

down to 10 words, and must run to a show tonight... appreciate you letting me grab a clue and run

5:31 pm

pippingeek

hiya babblers

5:51 pm

lilliann

hi pip :)

5:51 pm

lilliann

i see you got a job, that's brilliant. what is it?

5:52 pm

pippingeek

hi lilli

5:53 pm

pippingeek

i'm working as an ophthalmology tech in a glaucoma clinic

5:53 pm

pippingeek

lots and lots and lots to learn!

5:53 pm

lilliann

that sounds like a very worthwhile job.my mam has glaucoma so i have to have the tests every year

5:54 pm

lilliann

i bet, but worth it in the long run.well done you

5:54 pm

pippingeek

thanks!

5:55 pm

pippingeek

yes, now i can run those tests, from basic vision to fancy computer imaging of your optic nerve

5:55 pm

lilliann

when did you start?

5:55 pm

pippingeek

tuesday

5:55 pm

pippingeek

i should have waited one day to get my affairs in order and study up for the TWO tests i have this weekend, but i also wanted to start the money rolling in as fast as possible

5:57 pm

lilliann

cool.the only thing is with those tests i end up getting dizzy because i'm having to move my eyes quickly to see the little white blobs moving(i have menieres disease, so quick eye movement isn't good)so i end up missing half of them and then have to be retested again and again which isn't great for me :)

5:58 pm

lilliann

i can understand that, but i'm sure you'll be fine

5:58 pm

pippingeek

most of ours involve not moving the eye at all, just seeing things in peripheral vision, but they can feel long and grueling

6:00 pm

lilliann

the problem for me is that they are moving and you have to press the button when you see them don't you? that's the problem for me

6:01 pm

pippingeek

do you take a visual field test? there's one where you look at a target and things flash and/or move and you click when you see them

6:01 pm

lilliann

well, i hope you enjoy it

6:02 pm

pippingeek

it may also be a test we don't do so i don't know about it

6:02 pm

pippingeek

sounds like the practice I'm working at has its ups and downs, for sure, but it's a good job

6:03 pm

lilliann

i can't remember, i know i have to have 2 tests but neither are good for me

6:03 pm

lilliann

well, atleast you'll have some money coming in and it will be a good job.at the end of the day people will always need their eyes tested

6:04 pm

pippingeek

all true things. decent money and very good for my future!

6:05 pm

lilliann

a good friend of mine's daughter worked in an opticians years ago and then trained and is now an opthamologist.it's a well paid job.it took her about 4 years though to become one

6:06 pm

lilliann

did you want to work with eyes? i thought you wanted to be on the nursing side

6:09 pm

Kenny Chuck

Need a clue for an5/12.Please?

Hello again :)

7:24 pm

Lizlin

Good morning / good evening everyone :)

7:24 pm

smores

hey liz :)

7:25 pm

Lizlin

Did your girls eventually calm down from the giggles?

7:26 pm

MollyL

Exams on a Saturday? That should be illegal.

7:26 pm

smores

yeah..but I expect more of the same this evening

7:27 pm

Lizlin

All exams should be illegal!

7:27 pm

Lizlin

I think ear plugs for you are the solution!

7:27 pm

MollyL

Well yeah Liz, you have me there. : )

7:27 pm

rururocks

yeah especially proctological ones

7:28 pm

Lizlin

That's a big word for this early in the morning!

7:28 pm

smores

my daughters friend is over so I have 3 teen girls again

7:28 pm

Lizlin

My sympathy!

7:31 pm

MollyL

You need to start encouraging sleep overs at the OTHER kid's houses.

7:31 pm

Lizlin

Now that's a very good suggestion - I'd suggest week-long ones!

7:32 pm

Lizlin

Another good and apt icon, Molly.

7:32 pm

rururocks

I can't read it.. I'm looking at who's on line

7:33 pm

smores

lol...nah...she's a good kid

7:33 pm

MollyL

That's okay. Good kids can sleep over at their friend's house.

7:35 pm

smores

:) My daughter stays over at her house a lot too...usually every other weekend

7:36 pm

Lizlin

How weird is that? 10 words left and all from different letters in the grid.

7:36 pm

MollyL

That's good. It's always pleasant to share the loud teenage wealth. : D

7:36 pm

smores

:) I'm good at sharing

7:38 pm

7:44 pm

rururocks

:D

7:44 pm

stidgmere

We live in one of the few states that allow drugs that I don't have any interest in. Too little, too late. Now tea is another matter and I enjoy savouring a good cuppa.

7:45 pm

smores

lol

7:45 pm

rururocks

yeah.. I'd have a hard time believing you're a big pot head mere

7:45 pm

Bugsaw

what a picture. All the stid family gathering around a huge hookah................

7:46 pm

stidgmere

Yes, ruru, you are so right. But I am able, nevertheless, to be blissfully unconscious of things at time that are amazing.

7:46 pm

gapeach

May I please have a clue for qu6-27? Thanks

Right back atcha Ru!

7:54 pm

SpellCheck

I usually don't play at this time, but DH is watching the football draft. How very exciting.

7:55 pm

rururocks

I watched it last night.. tell him I think Roger Godell is gay but won't admit it

7:56 pm

SpellCheck

He's laughing... Maybe he will come out w the rest of the NFL players who've been talking about it.

7:56 pm

Bugsaw

for shame ruru. Whoever Roger is he is going onto the field to smash people not flirt with them!

7:56 pm

SpellCheck

He's the commissioner... Doesn't smash anyone.

7:57 pm

Bugsaw

oh.... nevermind.... by Emily Letella

7:57 pm

rururocks

He's always too nattily dressed... and he's hugging all the players

7:58 pm

rururocks

I'm just jokin' around bugs

7:58 pm

DR1965

I agree with you Ruru

7:58 pm

rururocks

I don't think football is ready for gay players to come out .. but I sure as hell am going to admire the first one that does

7:59 pm

Bugsaw

I know you are but didn't know if everyone else did. So I showed how stupid I am instead! hahah

7:59 pm

SpellCheck

He's certainly raking in the $$ to be so well dressed. Hubby said he made 29.5 MILLION last year

7:59 pm

rururocks

wow.. that' ain't chump change

8:00 pm

SpellCheck

Understate much?

8:00 pm

MollyL

I figured he was joking. He usually is. : D

8:00 pm

rururocks

I figured someone who is that well dressed must spend a lot of time in the closet :D

8:00 pm

Bugsaw

I like Canadian football better but I still wudn't have a clue who the commissioner is

8:00 pm

SpellCheck

Believe me, if I weren't married to this guy, I wouldn't have a clue either.

8:01 pm

MollyL

I didn't know there was Canadian football.

8:01 pm

SpellCheck

I don't mind though. I enjoy football, and hockey too. Baseball is like watching paint dry!

8:01 pm

MollyL

Why is it "better"?

8:01 pm

Bugsaw

only 3 downs

8:02 pm

SpellCheck

Is it shorter Bugs?

8:02 pm

Bugsaw

plus, I am Canadian

8:03 pm

Bugsaw

I don't think so but the plays seem to go back and forth faster

8:03 pm

rururocks

I love football

8:05 pm

Bugsaw

I only started watching it when my youngest boy was playing but after he finished high school and stopped playing I mostly gave up watching.

8:05 pm

crosshair

lol,good jab there,molly

8:05 pm

SpellCheck

Do you have a team? (We're Giant Fans in this household, sort of -- I'm waiting until Eli is gone til I start rooting for them again though)

8:06 pm

DR1965

Eli = ICK

8:09 pm

Lizlin

Congrats Peach :)

8:09 pm

SpellCheck

YW

8:09 pm

rururocks

eli.. is a fantastic player.. what's icky about him?

8:09 pm

DR1965

As a san Diegan I can not root for him..

8:09 pm

SpellCheck

I never got over him snubbing the CHargers at his draft

8:10 pm

rururocks

ah

8:10 pm

DR1965

see- I am not alone!

8:10 pm

SpellCheck

My feeling is that, if you are playing a game, you play by the rules... or don't play!

8:10 pm

rururocks

who was the coach then?

8:10 pm

SpellCheck

No you are not.

8:11 pm

rururocks

I am not a big Philip RIvers fan however

8:11 pm

stidgmere

Time to dish up our beef stew dinner. Best wishes for a lovely day/evening to all.

Chargers coachShottenheimer

8:12 pm

rururocks

ah..well that might explain him running to NYC

8:13 pm

DR1965

I htought he ran because his daddy told him to

8:13 pm

DR1965

* thought

8:13 pm

SpellCheck

The Chargers were shrewd by taking Eli, b/c they knew he wouldn't play for them, knew the Giants coveted him, and were able to trade - get a reasonable QB in exchange, plus ANOTHer draft choice.. That turned out to be Merriman, who was great.

8:14 pm

SpellCheck

DR - hubby agrees with you that it was Daddy's idea. But still.... I feel very strongly that what he did was wrong.

8:14 pm

SpellCheck

Plus, I don't like the Manning attitude overall.

8:15 pm

DR1965

I used to live next door to someone who was at one time the special teams coach.

8:15 pm

rururocks

ah.. I kind of agree.. you're right.. screw Eli

8:15 pm

SpellCheck

Fun.

8:16 pm

SpellCheck

Ru, No thanks. ;-)

8:16 pm

DR1965

also- while I think that Payton is talented... having had the fusion surgery in my neck that he has had... I think he is nuts

8:17 pm

rururocks

you might get a nice Rolex out of it spell :D

8:17 pm

SpellCheck

Agreed. And he's certainly made enough money by now. What is he thinking? Not worth the risk

8:17 pm

rururocks

he certainly is sticking his neck out :D

8:17 pm

SpellCheck

He is supposed to be generous. Rumor has it, he gave up his hotel room in Jersey City, during Hurricane Sandy

8:18 pm

DR1965

nice ruru

8:18 pm

SpellCheck

Hopefully, he'll be pulling it in Ru

8:19 pm

SpellCheck

DH -- Hopefully he won't be necklace (neck less)

8:19 pm

DR1965

: )

8:20 pm

rururocks

he gets rid of the ball so quickly and really knows defensive schemes so well.. I don't think he'll get hit that much this year

8:20 pm

rururocks

THe Chargers are going to be much, much better this year

8:21 pm

rururocks

they will be duking it out with Kansas City for the play-off spot this year

8:21 pm

rururocks

DR have you ever eaten at Burlap yet?

8:22 pm

SpellCheck

Denver runs away with the division again. I don't see the Chargers doing more than vying for a Wildcard spot

8:22 pm

rururocks

I think they'll make the play-offs.. Denver is loaded and will win the Division .. yes

8:23 pm

DR1965

no I havent but my friend has

8:23 pm

DR1965

he liked it

8:23 pm

rururocks

how's the food?

8:23 pm

rururocks

ah.. good

8:23 pm

DR1965

he thought it was good

8:24 pm

rururocks

i'm going to check it out this fall when i'm down

8:24 pm

8:24 pm

rururocks

October I think is the event. I'll be down for a couple days

8:25 pm

rururocks

i'm doing a lot of traveling later this year

8:25 pm

DR1965

may have to see if I can meet you for coffee or something

8:25 pm

rururocks

Dart will be elated

8:25 pm

DR1965

my schedule is always crazy with the actor around

8:25 pm

rururocks

that'd be fun.. I usually stay downtown

8:26 pm

DR1965

ok I willjot it down in my book to keep in otuch with you

8:27 pm
