3:24 am
grannyrose
sprite, having a bitch of a weekend. the aching simply will not stop..i am tempted to take an endone. and i am so close to tears...
3:24 am
sprite
take that endone, darling. When was the last time you took one?
3:25 am
grannyrose
nearly 3 weeks ago.
3:26 am
sprite
so... it is clear you are not dependent on them... so take one. Now. I'll be waiting here.
3:26 am
grannyrose
and don has just started cooking the vegs for dinner about 10 minutes ago...
3:27 am
sprite
all good. I have 81 left, will be here after your dinner as well.
3:27 am
grannyrose
done....my gp wants me to cut it in half...and at this point in time, i am saying phui to that..
3:28 am
sprite
pfui and bully, lol. Not gonna work. Well done and now breathe until it kicks in. Breathe into the pain.
3:28 am
grannyrose
we have about another 10 minutes sweetie. chicken slow=cooked in apricot nectar and french onion soup. the juices make the most divine gravy.
3:29 am
sprite
sounds delicious!
3:29 am
grannyrose
have you tried the spices i sent you yet?
3:29 am
sprite
I used the eastern one in stirfried rice and it was to die for :D
3:30 am
grannyrose
oh, i am so pleased.
3:30 am
sprite
oh, and rose... no standing in church tomorrow, ya hear? Sit down and know God hears you just as well. It is not like His ears are on your butt.
3:30 am
grannyrose
it gives a whole different flavour doesn't it?
3:30 am
sprite
totally different. And interesting and very tasty.
3:30 am
grannyrose
yeah, sprite, i hear you.
3:31 am
grannyrose
how did the others like it?
3:31 am
sprite
:) I know you hear me. But will you mind me?
3:31 am
sprite
they loved it!
3:32 am
grannyrose
wow!! bonus!!
3:32 am
grannyrose
hun, the way i feel.... i am minding you..
3:33 am
grannyrose
don has been so smoochy all day...would like to give in...
3:33 am
sprite
ok sweetie. Am so sorry you are in so much pain. I know that sucks. Sucks up all your energy as well. *careful hug*
3:33 am
grannyrose
the poor man....he keeps asking me....you will get better won't you?
3:34 am
sprite
cuddles are good!
3:34 am
grannyrose
ummmmm...... i don't think it is just cuddles on his mind....lol
3:35 am
sprite
yes you will. Tell him from me: more kisses, less questions. And spank the monkey, lol, until your pain subsides.
3:35 am
grannyrose
sprite, when you do your christmas cooking, will you be able to use the allspice?
3:37 am
sprite
I don't know, sweetie. We haven't planned our menu yet. We don't cook real xmas meals. We just agreed to make a meal with all of us... one of the kids an entree, rob and I the main course and the other kid the dessert. So... I could. What would you suggest? Chicken Allspice? :)
3:37 am
grannyrose
and dearest, i have been so good today. only cleaned the loo and the handbasin in our bathroom...with a very long sit down between each. also sat down and folded laundry. and that is all i have done.
3:37 am
grannyrose
roflol....make a fruit cake with it in the mix...
3:38 am
sprite
good girl, rose... frustrating, isn't it? But so, so necessary. Be kind to yourself. Battling pain is a fulltime job in itself.
3:38 am
sprite
fruit cake as main dish... sounds like us :D
3:38 am
sprite
we have a house full of fruitcakes here. Or is it nutcakes?
3:39 am
grannyrose
and if i can find my fruit mince recipe, i will send it to you to make up, and store in your frig until christmas 2015. by then it is to die for.
3:39 am
sprite
oh please do, rose! I'd love that.
3:40 am
grannyrose
it is so delish 12 months or so down the track, after it has marinaded in brandy all that time.
3:40 am
grannyrose
i use it in little fruit pies....or just on it's own, with ice-cream
3:41 am
sprite
ugh, now I don't want to wait 12 months, lololol. But I will.
3:41 am
grannyrose
dinner is being served, dear. will say ttfn. xoxox
3:42 am
sprite
enjoy, darling. I hope the painkiller will ahve kicked in by the end of the meal.
3:45 am
zoozzoom
I dare not say what a frig means here. let alone store anythng there until 2015..lol
3:45 am
sprite
lolol zooz! *hugs* and good to see you. How are you?
3:46 am
zoozzoom
I am well thank you, Sprite.Hope you too are well?
3:46 am
scouser
hello zoozzoom - nothing so innocuous as little bits of carved bone then or little glass bits?
3:46 am
sprite
well enough, thanks zooz. Trying to get my energy back after some crazy weeks. Lots of pain atm but it will pass.
3:47 am
sprite
hi scouser :)
3:47 am
zoozzoom
Hello, Scouser :-)
3:47 am
scouser
PS I visited the Island in August and went on the steam train and the ordinary ferry.
3:47 am
scouser
hello sprite ad grannyrose too. keep spirits up.
3:47 am
zoozzoom
Glad to hear it, Sprite.Sorry to hear you are having pain though :-(
3:48 am
sprite
will do, scouser :)
3:48 am
zoozzoom
Scouser, The steam train is a nice little ride.As for the ferry.Well what can I say..so expensive for the very short journey.
3:49 am
sprite
pain is a given for me. It is just when it peaks for a while that I really struggle.
3:50 am
scouser
True. Hope to go on the hovercraft - we knew one of the developers of those, Geoff Harding who also was very busy with bringing the "Great Britain" ship back to Bristol, and with developing the dual-fuel car in the 70s and 80s.
3:50 am
zoozzoom
Papers here are saying we are in for a sharp winter cold snap.So no doubt it will be heading your way too, Sprite :-(
3:51 am
sprite
no doubt, zooz. Can you please use up all the cold before you send it on?
3:52 am
zoozzoom
The hover company are getting two new hovers made for use in the next couple of years.That will be nice to try out.Still nearly £20 for a half mile stretch of water though :-(
3:52 am
zoozzoom
LOL will try, Sprite...Will try.
3:52 am
scouser
Bit frosty this a.m. grey now. I am stuck on this Babble with 53 to go. I think there are lots of Scots dialect words here ending in -ie
3:53 am
zoozzoom
Beautiful blue sky here, Scouser. But yes a bit nippy too.
3:53 am
sprite
none so far, here, scouser. Down to last 10.
3:54 am
zoozzoom
Well I am off...just popped in to give my two pence worth..lol Hope to see youall again soon.Toodle pips for now.
3:54 am
sprite
bye zooz, have a great day
3:55 am
scouser
Cheers zoozzoom and all.
3:55 am
zoozzoom
((Sprite)) ((Scouser)) ((Rose)) for when she comes back.
3:55 am
sprite
you leaving too, scouser? Have a lovely day.
3:59 am

grannyrose
g'day zooz
4:07 am
sprite
welcome back, rose :) Was it good?
4:07 am
grannyrose
sprite? do you have a slow-cooker?
4:08 am
grannyrose
oh, sprite, there is never enough.....lol
4:10 am
sprite
no, have been looking into buying one, but it will have to wait. Oh, I have good news btw. The garage managed to get the dynamo repaired in stead of replaced and it saved us almost 200 euro :)
4:11 am
grannyrose
oh, that is so great....God bless them...
4:12 am
sprite
was ever so relieved. God and my good friends are looking out for me :D
4:13 am
grannyrose
yes, love.
4:15 am
sprite
this is the one I have bookmarked here:
http://tinyurl.com/p55zgwy
All sites I have been reading say this brand is very good, and to buy the biggest you can afford, lol.
4:18 am
grannyrose
WTG SPRITE!!!
4:19 am
grannyrose

grannyrose
g'day crossy, mate
4:21 am
crosshair
I do everything with my slow cooker but 109 Euro for one???!!! no way!! I have had a Black and Decker brand oval slow cooker and it does everything I need
4:22 am
sprite
ok will do, rose. It is a dutch site, may not be very interesting for you though. Just wanted to show you the picture :)
4:22 am
crosshair
Do get an oval one and not a round one
4:22 am
grannyrose
crossy i have two. my good old trusty GE one, and a cheap oval one.
4:23 am
crosshair
I have a round one and my oval. i soon retired the round one
4:23 am
sprite
yeah, oval, BIG, and with a separate pan. But crossy, they are all expensive here.
4:23 am
crosshair
and, of course, get one where the liner comes out for clean-up
4:23 am
grannyrose
the round one is great for cakes and puddings.
4:24 am
crosshair
I love making crossy's famous pulled pork in them;)
4:24 am
grannyrose
ohhhh...pulled pork....
4:25 am
grannyrose
crossy have you cooked osso bucco in it? to absolutely die for.
4:25 am
crosshair
yup.. with apples, honey, sweet onion mustard, chilli sauce and some secret ingredients:)
4:25 am
crosshair
What is osso bucco?
4:26 am
grannyrose
and i love the way you can use the cheapest cut of beef and it comes out like the most expensive.
4:26 am
crosshair
yes, the meat just falls apart;))
4:26 am
grannyrose
veal shank chops. cooked with vegs and red wine etc.
4:27 am
crosshair
mm, interesting
4:27 am
crosshair
I have been using the cooker mostly for home-made soups of late
4:28 am
crosshair
I make two soups a month and break them down into 18 single servings for people top pop out of the freezer at need.
4:29 am
sprite
crossy, I will need lots of soup recipes from you once I have a sl4cooker :)
And recipes from you as well, rose!
4:29 am
crosshair
ingredient cost is about 8 dollars per batch
4:30 am
grannyrose
np's sprite.
4:30 am
crosshair
let me know when you have your new cooker, and I will send them along
4:31 am
crosshair
so, about 80 cents a serving for the soup:)
4:31 am
grannyrose
cossy would you like my osso bucco recipe? when i make it...it feeds us for two meals. i freeze half for when we need a night off.
4:31 am
crosshair
Sure, rose. You can just send it to my email when you have a moment:)
4:32 am
grannyrose

4:32 am

Hi Kallia
6:58 am
Anniebrook
good morning, why is the chat stretched out?
6:58 am
mattygroves
Because Grant's cat sat on the keyboard
6:58 am
mattygroves
Or something
6:58 am
Trifioso
morning annie. I think it's because there was one big post- if we keep chatting until it goes away, it should reset
6:58 am
Anniebrook
hi matty,
6:59 am
mattygroves
Right - off to fetch ornaments, have a pie and a pint with 46 words left
6:59 am

6:59 am
Trifioso
does anyone else find that, even though they have a million ornaments, they still buy a box or two each year?
6:59 am
mattygroves
Not quite yet...
7:01 am
mattygroves
Well, I'm not sure if we'll do that - because my husband and I split two years ago (and I'm now with someone else), we sold the house. I got custody of the ornaments - and I have enough for a three bedroomed largeish (by London standards) house - I'm now in a small two bedroomed flat, and Jeff has ornaments as well...
7:01 am
Anniebrook
Hi Biltong, how are you?
7:01 am
Biltong
Well thank you, how are you?
7:02 am
Anniebrook
Im fine. Off to start the Cuisinart, need caffeine
7:02 am
Trifioso
I guess I need a 12 step program for ornaments.....mind you, with a cat and the world's dumbest dog around, ornaments seem to go to heaven on a regular basis....
7:02 am
Trifioso
let me know when you get back annie!

Step 1: Recognized that we were powerless
over our animals and our ornaments had
become unmanageable.

I didn't get Kalia's clue about the et 6. I tried to put an extra letter into the anesthesia word
7:23 am
Trifioso

7:23 am
Marc Freeman
Kalia does the et6 end the same way as the et5?
7:25 am
bichon
Don't get it at all
7:25 am
Trifioso

7:26 am
bichon
went to more words and there's no such word

7:45 am
MollyL
Wait, I thought the animals destroyed the living room
7:45 am
Trifioso
every five years or so i give in and we get a HUGE tree for the playroom, which has a cathedral ceiling....its a total waste of money, but does look rather amazing

your body is still probably reacting the the fact that you are not drinking anymore
9:32 am
pippingeek
well, it started raining last night, so there's that. but we've been having unpredictable and crap weather the past 2 weeks
9:32 am
pippingeek
and i've only been having about 3 drinks a week for the past couple months, so i doubt my body is that stressed by the change
9:33 am
pippingeek
probably not even that many, some weeks not any

11:33 am
hego

Cake is great for breakfast. It has eggs and milk and wheat
11:34 am
hego
yay!! for Matty!!!
11:34 am
pippingeek
and this one has coconut, which is totally a fruit, right?
11:34 am
mattygroves
And cake is great for message. I'm mattygroves, and I approve of this message
11:34 am
hego
it's the sugar prt that kills.
11:35 am
MollyL
Totally Pip. You almost made all the food groups.
11:35 am
pippingeek
and i didn't eat any yesterday
11:36 am
hego
that counts
11:36 am
rururocks
I get the sense that errands, breakfasts, and cleaning house have priorities for Judi over Babble if you can believe that
11:36 am
hego
time for lunch. later.
11:36 am
hego
(will look for cake)
11:36 am
MollyL
But since the sugar kills, I guess you will be dead soon. So I suggest you eat more cake.
11:36 am
pippingeek
that's crazy talk
11:37 am
pippingeek
i babble first, then run errands and clean house and do classwork
11:37 am
hego
Ruru we must get Judi's priorities in order.
11:37 am
pippingeek
then i have no excuse to indulge my inner child later
11:37 am
hego

hi ruby!
11:44 am
rubyfoo
hi pippin. I read over the visible (upper) part of the chat, but couldn't find the word that put you in the PB
11:44 am
rubyfoo
The other good breakfast food is leftover pizza, but only if it's been in the box over night
11:45 am
pippingeek
there were two, a to5 and an al4
11:45 am
pippingeek
ugh, i hate leftover pizza, i always reheat
11:45 am
pippingeek
mmm, weird filipino cake
11:45 am
rubyfoo
but, the same as with cake, I only eat the topping -- seriousy bad nel
11:55 am
pippingeek
mmm, cheese and sauce
11:56 am
MollyL
A good pizza crust is a shame to waste.
12:12 pm
rururocks
<--staying away from pizza till he's svelte
12:16 pm
MollyL
*Puts out carrots, celery and water for The Dieter*
12:18 pm
rururocks
are those from Scrabbler's house?
12:20 pm
MollyL
Nope, I don't steal food from rabbits that bite
12:20 pm
rururocks
I didn't hear about that!
12:20 pm
rururocks
does her new wabbit bite?
12:21 pm
MollyL
I'm pretty sure I read in one of the rabbit tales that they bite occasionally. And chew on things.
12:23 pm
rururocks
I think rabbits are cute ..but I wouldn't want some running around the house
12:23 pm
bichon
I think Scrabs keeps them in their own rooms
12:25 pm
rururocks
gives a whole new meaning to bunny ranch I guess
12:25 pm
MollyL
That was a first for me. I have never heard of pets having their own rooms.
12:26 pm
bichon
I guess she has to keep them from fighting and away from things they can chew on
12:26 pm
rururocks
wabbits fight?
12:27 pm
MollyL
*Imagines a bunny brawl
12:27 pm
rururocks
someone went out on a wild hare I guess
12:27 pm

WWB (new Fox TV show)
12:27 pm
bichon
My Bichons have less than benign interactions
12:28 pm
MollyL
WBW (World Bunny Wrestling) smack down
12:28 pm
rururocks
really.. bichons get cranky?
12:28 pm
rururocks
LOL Molly that's what I was trying to say
12:29 pm
rururocks
Do bichons have terrier in their history?
12:29 pm
bichon
not at all. But they are dogs. They're generally very cheerful, but they do get testy, usally over objects
12:30 pm
MollyL
I thought maybe they were fighting over whose hair looks prettier : D
12:30 pm
bichon
No, usually over a chew or a treat
12:41 pm
rururocks
my dog doesn't get testy.. but he is neutered though
12:44 pm
bichon
mine are neutered. It doesn't have anything to do with it. It's just dog behavior we'll never understand. Most of the time they'll curl up together.
12:45 pm
rururocks
how was lunch my liege!
12:46 pm
hego
Lovely. We were in the kitchen. lol
12:46 pm
hego

12:47 pm
hego

12:47 pm
rururocks
the rain is a drag (especially challenging driving) ..but we need the h20
12:47 pm
hego
I was surprised to learn that the vines are never irrigated.
12:48 pm
rururocks
that's not true.. but there are a lot of dry farmed vineyards
12:48 pm
rururocks
lots of vineyards are irrigated
12:48 pm
hego
They told us that at some vineyard.
12:48 pm
rururocks
it's generally the old vine cab and zin vineyards that are dry farmed
12:49 pm

12:52 pm
hego

12:52 pm
bichon

12:52 pm
rururocks

12:52 pm
rururocks

12:52 pm

12:53 pm
rururocks

12:53 pm
rururocks

hego
Audis are nice.
12:54 pm
rururocks

12:55 pm
rururocks
he's a keeper
12:55 pm
hego
Great to have a designated driver.
12:56 pm
hego
Yes, he is.
12:56 pm
rururocks
good thing you don't live in napa.. we'd get into a lot of trouble the two of us.
12:56 pm
hego
Oh, yes! And Bill could drive you home.
12:57 pm
rururocks
we'll have to cook together when you visit
12:57 pm
hego
That would be super.
12:57 pm
hego
How was your holiday?
12:58 pm
rururocks

rururocks

1:01 pm
rururocks

1:02 pm
rururocks
