1:36 am
sprite
hehehe yes, at some point in time... when you are looking for the Christmas trappings... or some old photograph... or the papers for tax purposes...
1:36 am
flosey
did the same with a beautiful Christmas card one year
1:37 am
sprite
it is frustrating. You remember putting it in a safe place, you just cannot remember which safe place it was.
1:38 am
flosey
maybe this year I'll put a note on my calendar
1:39 am
sprite
not a bad idea
1:40 am

flosey
most of the time, anyway
1:49 am
dizgrannie
LOL, Flos (about the hearing aids) if our girls came into our room at night - they used to grab one of my 'ears' as they called them before they woke me up. G/kids now do the same.

2:00 am

my turn to shop and cook today. I am thinking rice, stuffed bell peppers (capsicums) and cucumber salad.
2:01 am
flosey
sounds good Sprite, what is capsicum
2:01 am
sprite
some people call bell peppers capsicums. We call them paprikas. It is a confusing veg!
2:04 am
grannyrose

2:05 am
sprite
wb rose! Just realised you use the TENS to relax. Kind of funny :)
2:06 am
grannyrose

2:06 am
sprite
*giggles* I like that
2:07 am

2:07 am

2:12 am
sprite
what on earth is that?
2:13 am
sprite
sounds intriguing
2:13 am
grannyrose
ahhh, i think i had better send you the recipe. it is a pudding which as it cooks in the oven it makes its own sauce
2:14 am

2:23 am
Lizlin
That must be a wonderful feeling.
2:23 am
grannyrose

2:26 am
Lizlin

You how much you brightened my day yesterday!!are something, Rose! You cannot imagine
3:05 am
rubyfoo
(my laptop transposes things that I write)
3:05 am
rubyfoo
It's like pig latin from when I was a kid
3:05 am
grannyrose
my darling you are so worth it. i love you dearly, and i wish i could be with you.
3:06 am
rubyfoo
I took photos but I need a little kid to come and show me how to send them
3:06 am
grannyrose
it was lovely that you had some friends with you to share your delight and wipe away the tears.
3:08 am
rubyfoo
My friends here are very supportive and I'm doing fine. Perhaps I'll crash later, but for the moments I'm just trying to di paperwork, eat, and stay warm
3:09 am
grannyrose
more than enough my friend. little steps sweetie
3:12 am
rubyfoo
and I'm sleeping better just trying to eat more.
3:13 am
rubyfoo
I'm glad it's a big grid as I don't have to do anything today, yay for that
3:14 am
grannyrose
honey as the stresses slip away your life is going to be such a turn around.
3:15 am
rubyfoo
I'm seeing the oncologist on Mon with good blood results and bone scan to discuss. I don't know yet if I'll have radiation or not
3:17 am
rubyfoo
It would be nice if radiation took away some pain and I could take less morphine, but, unlike Mel, I have the constitution of an ox and the morphine only lessens the pain and keeps me from driving, but othrrwise it's no problem.
3:18 am
grannyrose
yes, ruby. and you have been through radiation before haven't you? so you know what to expect?
3:19 am
rubyfoo
It also takes away my appetite for meat and for alcohol. Moi! Imagine not wanting alcohol. I can't remember a day in my adult life without an aperitif (or two) before meals, even when I lived alone
3:20 am
rubyfoo
No, I only had surgery and strong chemo 25 years ago, so I'm a little bit scared about radiation.
3:21 am
rubyfoo
No, I only had surgery and strong chemo 25 years ago, so I'm a little bit scared about radiation.
3:21 am
rubyfoo
sorry for repeating, but this laaptop is a nuisance but at least I can stay by the fire
3:22 am
grannyrose
ahhh. perhaps you should google radiation and check it out more fully.
3:22 am
rubyfoo
Everyone says it's not painful but there can be after-effects
3:25 am
grannyrose
and that is what you need to be aware of my dear.
3:29 am
rubyfoo
I love this juicy grid, especially after yesterday's mingy one!
3:30 am
rubyfoo
I guess eveerybody who greets you will be in the PB today; perhaps we get a special dispensation...
3:32 am
grannyrose
lollll. and it is a lovely grid. sprite and i had a ball.

5:41 am
rubyfoo
Loding my marbles, lol
5:42 am
rubyfoo
I never know but, hopefully, it isn't "mysytery meat" or tartiflette
5:42 am
zoozzoom
Well at least you have marbles. I lost mine years ago or did I never have any lol
5:43 am
zoozzoom
Well I thinnk tartiflette is not that bad.
5:43 am
TheByzantine
I am starting on the m above Friends of Babble
5:44 am
rubyfoo
maybe once a year
5:44 am
sukee
Ooh, I looked up what tartiflette is, looks good to me :)
5:44 am
rubyfoo
hello BYZ
5:44 am
zoozzoom
Hello, TheByantine :-)
5:44 am
TheByzantine
Hello, Ruby
5:44 am
rubyfoo
I'd be happy to share!
5:45 am
zoozzoom
What did you get then, Ruby?
5:46 am
rubyfoo
Local specialties are tartiflette, anything gratinee, reblochon, did I mentiçn cheese ?- lol,. And beef here is pretty much inedible
5:46 am
rubyfoo
I'll go and look, brb
5:46 am
zoozzoom
Okie dokie :-)
5:47 am
zoozzoom
Must admit I hardly eat red meats. Just mostly chicken.
5:47 am
TheByzantine
the first three were not bad
5:48 am
rubyfoo
carrot salad, paella, reblochon and bread, and a yoghurt for desert
5:48 am
zoozzoom
Not reached the Ms yet still on the S next to the W myself.
5:48 am
rubyfoo
Fridays are the best!
5:49 am
zoozzoom
That does not sound too bad. Although I though you were not too keen on yoghurts.
5:49 am
zoozzoom
Thought*
5:49 am
rubyfoo
and Rufie shares tye fish with me, very aggressively, I must say
5:50 am
rubyfoo
I don't like it pre-sweetened. I prefer it plain with homemade jam
5:50 am
zoozzoom
I love the taste of live yoghurt!
5:51 am
zoozzoom
Not done it for a while but I used to chop my own fruit into it yum yum!
5:51 am
TheByzantine
live yoghurt? you have to run after it?
5:51 am
TheByzantine
weld
5:52 am
rubyfoo
I'm quick on my feet. I also like "fromage blanc" with its own whey
5:52 am
zoozzoom
Haha! it is okay, TheByzantine, the bacteria has such tiny legs that they could not get that far to catch them :-)
5:53 am
rubyfoo
and they are cute, besides!
5:54 am
zoozzoom
Yes fromage blanc is nice!
5:55 am
rubyfoo
Do you drink the whey, zzoozz? I hope it has some good value, because I really like it
5:55 am
rubyfoo
I am trying, very unsuccessfully, to regain some of the kilos I lost
5:56 am
rubyfoo
can't get past '& kgs
5:56 am
zoozzoom
We call it Fromage Fraise here, Ruby. And it is delish!
5:57 am
zoozzoom
41 Kilos!! You are thinner than me, Ruby. You better start eating young lady or i will not be very happy with you!
5:58 am
rubyfoo
I don't know if it exists in the US or not. It is even possible to fijnd unpasteurized milk here, but although it's delicious, I am afraid to drink it because of the risks it can carry
5:59 am
rubyfoo
I look awful, like a skeleton tricked out in nice clothes
6:00 am
zoozzoom
I am not sure myself, Ruby. But I think it best you get back to health before trying eat maybe.
6:01 am
zoozzoom
I am sure you are not, Ruby. But you certainly need to be eating more and healthly to keep your strength up.
6:01 am
rubyfoo
It can have TB or listeria, and I cannot risk anything else
6:02 am
zoozzoom
In that case stay well away, Ruby!
6:03 am
rubyfoo
actually, apart from the constant low-level pain, I feel better than I've felt in more than a year
6:04 am
zoozzoom
I am happy for you to hear that, Ruby. Keep it going all you need to do is gain a bit more weight and you will feel even better!
6:06 am
rubyfoo
now, after all this food talk, I'm going to re-charge both my body andmy dopey laptop.
6:06 am

i tried the slotted spoon method (strainer too) but it doesnt really separate the chicken from the bones.
methinks its just gonna be bare hands in chicken again.
1:48 pm
bichon
no, just shake the bone and the chicken will fall off
1:48 pm
MollyL
Can't help. I don't cook chicken in the crockpot. It comes out way too mushy for my taste. And I don't know any way of removing bones from a chicken other than using your hands.
1:49 pm
hego
Wish there was another way.
1:49 pm
bichon
I have never used my hands. Just put it on a plate and use a fork
1:49 pm

but what about all the teeny-tiny bones?! this is a WHOLE chicken...

You get a lot more chicken off a carcass if you pick it with your hands.

For cleaning, those gloves are great. But I need a tactical sense for my hands to pick a chicken that I don't get with gloves on. Really, a nail brush and some soap will clean your hands right up.

great! i did what i was saying in chat, told them how i felt about it, how disruptive it was to the people who WERE trying to do their work, etc etc. all the people who were part of the problem raised their hands to apologize for being part of the problem, and i also got them to sign off on a statement "i will try to behave respectfully no matter who is teaching the class", that i can remind them of with future subs or whatever.
5:27 pm
fuzzybunny
Hurshy, great result. Glad that they were honest and willing to admit it. I made out okay with 10th English this AM, only wound up with one student being suspended for behavior. What a difference between 5th and 10th grade.
5:27 pm

Good deal! I hope they learned something about respect and behavior.
5:30 pm

well fuzzybunny, it's also a private school, which I don't know if yours is. they know their parents are paying a LOT for them to get a great education, and we kinda weed out people who won't do well and stuff, so...
5:32 pm

Ah, big difference. We have to take one and all at public schools. I can't imagine what a luxury it would be to teach at a private school.

don't forget to put ed, es, er, est, ing and other endings on the words you find to get longer ones easily, olivia

In the yellow section, below the tile stats, click on Lickety's Babble Clues. Copy and paste your words into the bulk add section. Shows you the list in alphabetical order -so you see where words are missing.

I'm amazed that any baked good with olive oil in it is a hit. I find it very heavy and oppressive in cakes, cookies or brownies.
6:59 pm
72 Temple Owl
you've opined that before. interesting. folks remarked pointedly that these are very light. perhaps it is the odd step of dissolving baking soda into warm water.
6:59 pm
Lizlin
I've never used olive oil in any cake before - never made cookies before come to think of it, but these worked. They're pretty rich and I can't eat much at one time, but they're good and like I said, the people who've tried them here have enjoyed them and even asked for the recipe!
7:00 pm
MollyL
Oh sorry, didn't mean to repeat my opine
7:05 pm
72 Temple Owl
well liz you put in lots of extra chips! :) i cut them down, too rich for me but the beauty of baking is adapting to taste, i think
