How was your night and how were all the celebrations and did Caya love her presents? Phew! Breathe!
3:00 am

whatcha bakin'?
3:01 am

bit of a restless night. But Caya's celebration was a full-out success. She loved her presents and it was a lovely day.
3:01 am
Lizlin
Tuna quiche x 2 and a flourless orange cake - sadly for what I suppose is the equivalent of a wake. Friend died yesterday, funeral on Wednesday then everyone is getting together at the temple.
3:01 am
Lizlin
That's wonderful. I knew the presents would be loved.
3:01 am
sprite
I am so sorry for your loss :(
3:02 am
Lizlin
It's OK - sad but OK. He was an older friend - he had a stroke just under 4 weeks ago and never recovered.
3:02 am
Lizlin
Part of our community, though.
3:03 am
Lizlin
Sorry your night wasn't too good. Have you got an easy-ish day?
3:04 am

it will be good to remember him and his life together, I think, after the funeral
3:04 am
sprite
yeah, not too bad. Chat training this afternoon for the volunteer work.
3:05 am
Lizlin
Well his wife is a strong person and has good family support. She's already joking - quoting her husband about - "going back to the temple for the after-match function"
3:05 am
Lizlin
Not too bad. Take it easy if you can.
3:06 am
sprite
hehehe good for her. But even the strong ones need their support... sometimes especially them.
3:06 am
Lizlin
Of course they do and all her friends will be around for her.
3:06 am
sprite
I will. Low key all day for me. Easy does it :)
3:07 am
sprite
hey, as long as she has you in her support circle, she will be fine
3:08 am

I hope so. She's no spring chicken herself but she seems to be a strong lady.

it was a hard, hard thing to leave him there, all sleepy and warm. but I was so anxious about the storm I could not sleep a wink. they have already cancelled most schools tomorrow. of course, NOW, since I already left, it won't snow a flake until 10 am and I will look a complete fool
3:27 am

lolllll nah, you made the right choice. The one that gives you the most peace. No matter if it snows or not.

9:09 am

9:09 am
MollyL
Or when someone announces that they haven't li4ed yet
9:09 am
Trifioso

9:10 am

9:16 am
car.eeyore

He has not aged gracefully
9:23 am

Massive amounts of drugs and alcohol will do that do a person

Lead singer, Def Leppard

that Super Bowl was awful and I don't mean because the Panther'slost
9:45 am
MLFAN17
and pb for me
9:45 am
MLFAN17
oh almost
9:45 am
EvaNadine
it was a dull game with a tepid halftime and even the commercials left me wanting more...
9:46 am
MLFAN17
eva I agree some of the commercials were lack luster
9:47 am
hurshy
i enjoyed the avocados from mexico commercial
9:47 am
EvaNadine
we watched the first half + halftime at a bar. we were so bored we went home + i took a bath during the majority of the second half.
9:47 am
MLFAN17
the halftime show as better then I thought it was going to be. I thought it was weird how the band had those colorful outfits and set and the rest of them were in black
9:47 am
hurshy
with aliens and scott baio
9:47 am
MollyL
I thought it was a great game
9:47 am
MLFAN17
because the Bronco's won ?
9:48 am
MollyL
No because it was the two best teams in football
9:48 am
MLFAN17
hurshy loved that commercial
9:48 am
rururocks
I'm not a fan of Beyoncé personally.. I thought Bruno Mars kind of stole the show
9:48 am
MLFAN17
that is always the case that is how they got there
9:48 am
rururocks
I loved the singing sheep commercial
9:48 am
MollyL
I was very disappointed that Newton was such a bad sport after the game though
9:48 am
MLFAN17
even their attitudes were off kilter
9:48 am
hurshy
there was an awful lot of fumbling for a dry day in the 70s
9:48 am
rururocks
Newton is a crybaby
9:49 am
MollyL
I don't think the two best teams are always the ones who get to the Super Bowl
9:49 am
MLFAN17
ruru he isn't as bad as some of the other qb's
9:49 am
cybernan
I don't understand why it has to be shown on the regular networks -- why not keep it to tsn? --- preempted Madam Secretary --- and you wonder why I hate football?
9:49 am
MLFAN17
exactly Molly
9:50 am
MLFAN17
does everyone usually have an nfl network of some kind?
9:50 am
hurshy
well, the regular networks want to show it because they get a lot of money from the advertisers
9:50 am
MollyL
I'm not sure why it's shown in Canada at all
9:50 am
rururocks
oh..there is no question the Panthers were the best in the NFC this year. they played great. They unfortunately lost their best receiver to a concussion.. it might have been closer if not
9:50 am
cybernan
me neither, Molly
9:51 am
cybernan
but then we get all the US networks
9:51 am
therealblah
Canadians are not allowed to be football fans? lol
9:51 am
therealblah
the NFL makes sure it is shown all over the world
9:51 am
MLFAN17
something went wrong with the team they were off Cam is good with timing and long passes he just didn't seem to be "there"
9:51 am
rururocks
no therea.. they're too busy getting free health care :D
9:51 am
MollyL
I didn't say Canadians are not allowed to be football fans. But American football is not very popular there.
9:51 am
MLFAN17
blah but it didn't used to be that way though
9:52 am
IndiaJan
lol..are you kidding Mollly?
9:52 am
therealblah
hah ru
9:52 am
EvaNadine
because whoever wins are "World Champions"
(nevermind that we dont let the rest of the world PLAY!)
9:52 am
IndiaJan
oops sory
9:52 am
MollyL
Well, my husband was Canadian and he said that Canadians are lukewarm about American football and much more into hockey
9:53 am
MLFAN17
this Super Bowl was given to them because of the buzz about their qb supposedly retiring
9:54 am
rururocks
don't forget about the popularity of curling molly :D
9:54 am
cybernan
we have had a Canadian football league for years -- don't watch it though - of course, our season is much shorter than yours.
9:54 am
IndiaJan
i think we are luke warm about canadian football..
9:54 am
therealblah
The NFL is working hard to expand its appeal beyond the US as evidenced by 4 years of sold out games in London
9:54 am
therealblah
curling - now there's an exciting sport
9:55 am
MLFAN17
I didn't know until very recently that a game or two will be played in mexico
9:55 am
MollyL
Shame on me Ru, how could I forget curling?
: D
9:55 am
cybernan
Don't watch much hockey anymore either --- the expansion took the interest away for me.
9:56 am
MLFAN17
I don't watch hockey at all
9:56 am
rururocks
they are adding Watching Paint dry as a category in the Olympics now too
9:56 am
IndiaJan
im not a big sports watcher either
9:57 am
therealblah
i used to watch a lot of hockey when i was in NY and Boston. Not much any more
9:57 am
MollyL
Well Ru, I would be torn between Watching Paint Dry and Golf
9:57 am
rururocks
I'm not either.. I just like watching football, basketball, and baseball
9:57 am
cybernan
are you saying that tongue in cheek blah? It is an exciting sport once you understand the game --- it certainly requires a lot more skill mentally and physically than football
9:57 am
MLFAN17
hockey is big in those areas am I not right blah?
9:58 am
IndiaJan
geez im losing it this morning
9:58 am
EvaNadine
my husband enjoys some football, so i try to enjoy it just enough to be able to tolerate it.
his real love, though, is soccer -- aka REAL football.
9:58 am
IndiaJan
curling is a great game
9:58 am
MollyL
Professional football requires a lot of skill mentally and physically
9:58 am
rururocks
*pats jan on the back* "there there dear we all have our days"
9:58 am

you want to talk about a boring sport - BASEBALL.
9:58 am
IndiaJan
lol..thanks ru
9:58 am
MLFAN17
agreed molly
9:59 am
therealblah
nan i thought you were talking about hockey lol. Yes it was tongue in cheek, from what i know players have to be very strategic
9:59 am
rururocks
hockey is too violent
9:59 am
cybernan
no I was talking about curling
9:59 am
cybernan
my expansion comment was about hockey
9:59 am
rururocks
Curling is really boring to me.. but that's just me
9:59 am
therealblah
yes MLF hockey is popular in the northeast, down here football is king
9:59 am
MLFAN17
center o?
10:00 am
cybernan
and football isn't, ru?
10:00 am
therealblah
yeah i slowly figured that out nan :P
10:00 am
MLFAN17
thought so blah:)
10:00 am
rururocks
well.. to be honest nan.. yes.. this year was the most boring season of football ever
10:00 am
HarryHood
200 down!
10:00 am
rururocks
I really didn't watch many games..
10:01 am
MLFAN17
my husband said watching this super bowl is like watching a Pro Bowl
10:01 am
MLFAN17
congrats harry
10:01 am
HarryHood
I find it difficult to devote 2-3 hours to a non-value added activity
10:01 am
cybernan
do you know anything about curling, ru? you should try it some time -- not as easy as it looks!
10:01 am
rururocks
but then a bunch of high schoolers could have beaten my favorite team
10:02 am
HarryHood
I drifted in and out of the game yesterday.
10:02 am
MLFAN17
I have watched it cyber
10:02 am
MollyL
So what would be a "value added activity"?
10:02 am
rururocks
I have done curling.. really doesn't interest me
10:02 am
HarryHood
molly - babble
10:02 am
MLFAN17
ruru what is your favorite team?
10:02 am
rururocks
I'm all for value added activities :D
10:03 am
MollyL
I don't know, I think if you enjoy watching a sport and it's something fun for you to do, there is value in that
10:03 am
MLFAN17
center o anyone?
10:03 am
rururocks
Sad to report I'm a die-hard 49er fan MLF
10:03 am
MLFAN17
I agree molly
10:03 am
IndiaJan
curling is value added...because it usually involves drinking
10:03 am
HarryHood
I suppose, but it's hard to carve out such a huge chunk of time.
10:03 am
therealblah

10:03 am

10:04 am
MLFAN17

10:04 am
HarryHood
If I'm folding laundry concurrently, it's easier to justify
10:04 am
rururocks
Curling seems like bocce for those on prozac
10:04 am
MollyL
People spend 2-3 hours in the movie theater all the time. And at the opera.
10:04 am
rururocks
<--not an opera fan either
10:04 am
MLFAN17
bocci ball?

*wonders what Harry's value added activities are?*
10:05 am
HarryHood
"molly sez" use the sugar ending
10:05 am
MollyL
I think if everything we did had to involve being productive life would be pretty boring
10:06 am
therealblah
ot + vowel + sugar ending
10:06 am
HarryHood
ru - I procrastinate a lot.
10:06 am
HarryHood
My theoretical value added activities include grading lab reports and doing taxes
10:06 am
cybernan
don't see why you would think only depressed people would enjoy curling as opposed to bocce
10:07 am
rururocks
oh. I'm just kidding nan
10:07 am
MLFAN17
harry me too
10:07 am
TheByzantine
so, procrastination is a value added activity?
10:07 am
rururocks
Bocce is boring to me too
10:07 am
rururocks
drinking or not
10:07 am
MLFAN17
I don't understand that clue

rururocks
Tennis I enjoy at its highest levels
10:08 am
therealblah
speaking of ot6 ru :)
10:08 am
HarryHood
no byz, it's just that I'm not perfect. I guess watching a 3 hour football game is as good as any other procrastinative activity, but procrastinators don't plan to not do what they're supposed be doing for three hours at a time.
10:08 am
MLFAN17
I like tennis just depends on who is playing and I don't watch it regularly either
10:09 am
MollyL
I see the strategy and skill required to play golf. And i'm sure it's fun to play. But I find it incredibly boring to watch.
10:09 am
rururocks
Don't forget it's dangerous to be on a couch Harry (roger godell)

10:27 am
mkg
off to work myself.
10:27 am
MLFAN17
does the lo8 extend from lo6/18?

10:32 am
therealblah
ru...:)
10:32 am
MLFAN17
i am cold a lot of the time
10:32 am
Judi
Me neither. We keep our house at 65 deg. However, this is a little extreme for me.
10:32 am
MollyL
MLF, if you don't like the cold, why do you like snow?
10:32 am
rururocks
65 is too hot
10:33 am
MLFAN17
sometimes when it snows that kind of cold doesn't bother me
10:33 am
MLFAN17
i know its odd but true
10:33 am
mkg
ruru what tem do you keep your house at? i think 65 is on the low side.
10:33 am
MollyL
Well, you don't have to drive in it either. I might like snow more if I didn't have to drive in it.
10:33 am
MLFAN17
mkg i would be miserable
10:34 am
MLFAN17
molly as most people dont
10:34 am
rururocks
I keep my thermostat about 60 .. I'm usually warm all the time
10:34 am
mkg
wow ruru. i am impressed. i keep mine at 69 or 70.
10:35 am
mkg
ruru what about AC in summer? do you keep that low?
10:35 am
MLFAN17
we have it at76 or 77 usually and its too cold in here i have a jacket on right now like a sweat suit type
10:35 am
therealblah
guess it's relative...it's 48 outside and i have the heat set at a cozy 72. However i'll happily be outside when it's 100
10:35 am
MollyL
Oh my God, if I kept my thermostat at 70 in the winter I would go broke paying PEPCO every month.
10:35 am
rururocks
I keep that low yes in the summer mostly for the dog
10:35 am
rururocks
but it gets to be over 100 here where I live
10:35 am
MLFAN17
blah that's too cold inside for me
10:36 am
MLFAN17
ruru same here
10:36 am
rururocks
72 I'd pass out in the hosue
10:36 am
mkg
therea i am fine in 100 degrees as long as humidity is low. i love the desert. but where i live, DC area, is humid and swampy.
10:36 am
therealblah
lol we are wussies in the 'cold' down here
10:36 am
mkg
72 is nice if you dont have much clothing on. but i prefer 69 or 70.
10:37 am
rururocks
(I'll say)
10:37 am
MLFAN17
mkg uggh awful isn't it during those kind of temps!
10:37 am
mkg
imagine the lives of our grandparents or great grands with NO central heat. just a drafty fireplace. imagine it.
10:37 am
therealblah
well there are those times mkg, but usually under a fluffy down comforter :)
10:37 am
MLFAN17
mkg how did they survive??
10:37 am
therealblah
mkg i would not last long, for sure
10:38 am
mkg
it is the humidity that gets me. i spent time in the sinai desert years ago and i LOVED IT. it was about 125 degrees and NO HUMIDITY. i was in heaven.
10:38 am
MLFAN17
my husband and i are talking about if we move we want another source of heat if the power goes out
10:38 am
rururocks
I'm all for not having clothing on :D
10:38 am
MLFAN17
mkg desert climate not for me
10:39 am
MLFAN17
my husband just bought a space heater to keep so when the temps get down pretty low the pipes don't freeze. we had it happen twice
10:40 am
therealblah
but if you lose power don't you lose the space heater?
10:41 am
MLFAN17
yes but that's just for pipes and maybe our bathroom. it took him long enough ot get us one since the pipes broke twice already and never mentioned it. yeah electric of course
10:42 am
MollyL
MLF, I'm not sure a space heater is going to keep your pipes from freezing. I think you need to insulate the pipes.
10:42 am
MLFAN17
maybe it to 100 words with 224 left
10:43 am
mkg
how did they survive? clothing! they dressed in many layers in winter. my grandmother dressed like this: first a sleeveless pink cotton undershirt. it hung to her legs. then a corsette that went from just under her breasts over her hips. that required laces which had to be tightened every day. i helped her. then a bra. then underpants on top of the corsette. then a pair of, oh i forgot what it was called: cotton pants that went from her waist to her knees. then a shirt like a t shirt with long sleeves. then a full slip. and then a dress and a sweater. oh and i forgot: stockings! stockings that hooked to the garters hanging from the corsette. and the stockings were not like what we wear. they were thick cotton stockings. and then a sweater and she was ready for a cold day. she dressed while she was still in bed, under her "bet gevant". that was a huge feather bed thing which her mother made for her for her wedding. she had it to the day she died and i wish i knew what happened to it. i am sure it was tossed. too bad. i often slept with her in her double bed under that bet gevant and it was so so so warm. so so incredibly warm.
10:44 am
mkg
the stockings went on before the cotton pants by the way. sorry to confuse you.
10:45 am
MLFAN17
they also had shawls
10:45 am
Judi
Wow. Must have taken a long time to get dressed.
10:47 am
MLFAN17
made it over 100 words sorry cant type
10:47 am
MollyL
Yes Judi, I was just thinking it would take me over an hour to put all that on.
10:48 am
MLFAN17
i agree molly
10:48 am
rururocks
*I'm thinking how long it would take to pull them off*
10:48 am
Judi
And how does one sinch up a corset if one is still in bed???
10:48 am
MLFAN17
and why would you want to lol
10:48 am
MLFAN17
lay down on the bed and have someone do it for you
10:49 am
rururocks
Obviously Judi hasn't hung out with Madonna
10:51 am
Judi
Nah. Me and Madge don't do the bondage thing.
10:52 am
MollyL
How does one lay down on the bed, under the covers and have someone tie up a corset for them?
10:52 am
MLFAN17
i will be back
10:52 am
Judi
*here's where Ruru volunteers*
10:53 am

I wish I could figure out how to disable the touch pad -- I'm using a usb mouse and it would make life a lot easier. I've looked on line, but my asus doesn't seem to have the features talked about
11:07 am
MLFAN17
no asus webpage cyber?
11:08 am

sorry, can't help Nan
11:09 am

11:09 am

fw and off to pick up the daily - delivered to a box at the roadside
11:10 am
MLFAN17
blah that is just like me, i have my palms on the keyboard for my desktop computer
11:10 am
MLFAN17
congrats flosey
11:12 am
MollyL
I just did a Google search on "how to disable asus touchpad" and it gave some interesting results. Not having an asus, I don't know if they would work.
11:14 am
cybernan
the screen with the disable button never appears on this one, Molly --- there is nothing in settings that would allow me to shut it down
11:15 am
MollyL
It is really frustrating when the "on line advice" only applies to certain models.
11:17 am
MollyL
The first thing I do with any computer I am using is disable the touch screen. I don't like it and I don't like fingerprints all over my screen.
11:18 am
cybernan
me 6/21 please?
11:18 am

It ends in what you place your golf ball on

Cybernan….to disable touchpad go to control panel, mouse, device setting and check ‘disable when USB device is attached’.
11:40 am
MLFAN17
tabby that's what they were saying he needs to mature
11:40 am
cybernan
the option to disable does not show up, dc
11:41 am
MLFAN17
is your usb attached?
11:41 am
dc43
Sometimes you can disable using a function button
11:42 am
tabbycat
Carolina has an excellent team and they'll be back. I really expected them to win, but Denver's defense won the game.
11:42 am
cybernan
it gives me the option to select the usb mouse, but it doesn't disable the touch pad
11:43 am
MLFAN17
tabby i kind of agree but they got a lot of penalities against them some should have been changed that were challenged. they wanted them to lose in case manning would decide to retire.
11:45 am
MLFAN17
the Panther's enthusiasm from the beginning of the game was not there
11:46 am
tabbycat
My enthusiasm was missing as well, LOL
11:46 am
MLFAN17
same here i was so excited about the game and then....
11:46 am
MLFAN17
my husband said it was like watching the pro bowl lol
11:47 am
MLFAN17
aqib talib who is a great player is such a jerk he can't say anything nice without giving an attitude
11:47 am
MollyL
Oh seriously MLF, that is not what happened in that game at all. Those penalties were all legitimate. They don't throw the Super Bowl because one of the quarterbacks is saying he might retire.
11:49 am
MLFAN17
looked like it to me and my husband said the same thing. Referee's can have more to do with any game then you think they can
11:50 am
MLFAN17
even the previous referee who watches from somewhere else said one of those penalties should have been overturned and wasn't.
11:52 am
MollyL
Okay, sour grapes.
11:52 am
MLFAN17
you just don't want to admit i am righ
11:53 am

I guess we should ban football along with politics

100 to go! bbl - gonna take the kiddos outside and get the driveway cleared.
11:59 am
MollyL
Oh okay MLF, you're right. The Panthers were the better team and they got robbed because of the penalties. The fact that they lost had nothing to do with the fact that an otherwise great football team showed up to The Super Bowl and played a lousy game. La la la.
11:59 am
MLFAN17
bye harry
12:00 pm
MLFAN17
no molly the game in general was not as gereat as it should have been When a play is challenged it is for a reason in the long run or at the time
12:01 pm
MLFAN17
both teams are great hence they were in the super bowl together
12:01 pm
MollyL
Yep, that is why they have instant replay.
12:02 pm
cybernan
Cease Fire! ---- it is a GAME -- and as such is meant to be enjoyed, not fought over!!!!!
12:02 pm
MLFAN17
which apparently went against the Panther's everytime
12:02 pm
MollyL
Hey MLF, if it helps you to think that The Panthers lost because of the penalties, so be it. And Nan, there is no fire. We are having a discussion. Adults do that. They don't always agree when they are discussing.
12:03 pm
MLFAN17
the game was awful the commercials were so so and the half time show was the best part aside from the inductees:)
12:03 pm
cybernan
out of here then, because tis is not a pleasant "discussion"
12:04 pm
phaeton
The halftime show stunk!
12:04 pm
MLFAN17
changing the outcome of some penalties can make a difference and yes we know cam did get sacked quite often it was just very one sided
12:04 pm
MollyL
Nice chatting with you MLF, whether or not we agree. Now it's time to be PLEASANT. Does anyone have any cutsie pie puppy or kitty stories?
12:05 pm

HAPPY ENDING to the pelican story! The poor thing had a fishing lure hanging from its wing and the fishing line snagged on our dock when it went into the water, so.. a volunteer from the Wildlife Center and I were able to net the bird, wrap it in a towel.. and it is now on its way to the vet. Ahh, relief.
3:32 pm
lynxxx
3 cheers for Aloy!!
3:33 pm
Aloyisius
The volunteer showed me how to hold pelican bills so that they don't bite you.. pelicans breathe through their bills, so you have to leave space by putting two of your fingers in the middle.. poor thing was shaking
3:34 pm
Bugsaw
but very grateful once it was done, I bet
3:34 pm
Aloyisius
good news is that we don't think the wing is broken. Once the lure is removed and antibiotics are used, the bird should be ok.. nasty tear by the wing joint though.
3:36 pm
therealblah
well done aloy!
3:36 pm
Aloyisius
it seemed to know we were trying to help - am grateful for the Peace River Wildlife Center.. (makes note to donate)

hi teach

what recipe did u finally take to the party yesterday? did it work out?
7:23 pm
72 Temple Owl
i took the bars but without the top crust. the crescent dough had a big hole coming out of the package and i tried a second time but it kept ripping
7:24 pm
wvteach
i'm sure that everyone still enjoyed them
7:25 pm
72 Temple Owl
they did! they were a big hit. just that they cost a lot with all waste.
7:26 pm
wvteach
that's too bad
7:26 pm
72 Temple Owl
i wish i had kept more than two home.
7:27 pm
72 Temple Owl
i added a bit of lemon juice to the cheese custard. i think cheese always needs lemon
7:27 pm
wvteach
they sound good
7:30 pm
72 Temple Owl
i bake a lot, but the easy shortcut stuff rarely turns out well. i will call pillsbury to see if they have any advice.
7:32 pm
wvteach
is the recipe online?
7:32 pm
72 Temple Owl
from scratch is my rule
7:33 pm
72 Temple Owl
yes, and i posted a link in chog yesterday. churro cheesecake bars should do it
7:35 pm
72 Temple Owl
i think using the crescents that come as one large sheet would work
7:37 pm
wvteach
missed it yesterday but just went and checked it out - they look delicious
7:38 pm
72 Temple Owl
the pillsbury recipe uses 1 c sugar but i used 1/2. it was fine. it also has different directions than the link i gave yesterday
7:40 pm
72 Temple Owl
i know the babbler lil bit posted this recipe years ago.
7:41 pm
wvteach
with so few ingredients, it seems relatively simple - but that it if you can get the dough to work out
7:45 pm
72 Temple Owl
saw a new product yesterday. crescent, puff pastry and poa dough in the refrigerated casem in rolls, not in cans. will definitely get the puff pastry to work with apples and pears, cheaper than the frozen.
7:58 pm
welki
hey - what's poa dough?

Probably Welki - we go all over the place and never know where we'll end up. It all depends on the weather.

You have deserts in Alberta don't you?
8:36 pm
welki
yes we do - and the most amazing features, called hoodoos
8:37 pm
welki
mountains, prairies, desert - just missing the ocean and deciduous forests
8:37 pm
Bugsaw
and the most beautiful drive throught the heart of the Rocky Mountains between Banff and Jasper.
8:37 pm

googled hoodoos ... looks a lot like Utah. Beautiful.

my dear friend just took a train trip that ended up in Banff. She liked it a lot.
8:38 pm
welki
ahh, but you have the sea, bugs, AND the forests!
8:40 pm
origami
I am much more of a forest person, but the big benefit of camping out in the deserts of CA is that you are totally disconnected ... BLM land ... no connections (even cell phone mostly). You just rest, read, drink, eat, play scrabble.
8:45 pm
welki
scrabbler has a forest spirit, too - and she lives in the adirondacks, a perfect place for her
