okay, in other news...jellen, I ended up working with quite a lot of ELL students this year, mostly Brazilians. I was so hard to explain past tenses that don't "play fair" like landed, which is two syllables, and parked, which is only one. And the ones where we use a t instead of the -ed ending? They looked at me like I was NUTS.
8:39 am
Jellen
It's all right, Trif. Wash your fingers off with soap. lol

Hi Jellen, ruru, gramma and all. Hope you had a fun Fourth

Explain nan, pls
9:25 am
cybernan
It never rains on men's day!
9:25 am
bichon
okay, I wasn't sure what you meant
9:27 am
rururocks
which brings up the question.. why does god have to be any particular sex?
9:28 am
cybernan
for the same reason there are male and female golf balls --- the male ones don't listen
9:29 am
rururocks
I've met a lot of female goof balls.. not really golf balls :D
9:29 am
bichon
Does God have a human shape and is there a God?
9:30 am
rururocks
don't ask me bichon..I'm an atheist
9:31 am
cybernan
the bible was written in the 4th century by a bunch of monks working for a church who thought women should be kept "in their place" -- need I say more?
9:32 am
gramma
I believe God is in all of us. We all have the capacity to love and show mercy to those less fortunate, and to accept everyone including our differences.
9:33 am
gramma
Now back to more important things....How about a clue for the 1st co6?

i am trying mango lemonade . it is yucky
4:46 pm
Uneaixoise
LOL :-)
4:47 pm
72 Temple Owl
someone once described mango as smelling like used sweat socks. i swear this beverage does!
4:47 pm
72 Temple Owl
yet i do like dried mango.
4:47 pm
72 Temple Owl
and just had some fresh diced in a salad, and it was ok.
4:47 pm
MollyL
That is a perfect description of mango smell. I have no idea why anyone eats them.
4:48 pm
72 Temple Owl
i thought he was crazy. he is ,but right about that.
4:48 pm
Uneaixoise
have been scarfing up my fave summer fruit every day -- PEACHES!
4:49 pm
72 Temple Owl
well, at least it was organic ;)
4:50 pm
72 Temple Owl
no jersey peaches yet. still working on cherries and strawberries.
4:50 pm
Uneaixoise
peach truck sells fresh peaches twice a week just a couple of blocks from my house :-)
4:51 pm
72 Temple Owl
i want to try making cobbler this year.
4:51 pm
MollyL
Une, we are getting fresh peaches from your neck of the woods. They are wonderful. I made a killer peach pie last week.
4:51 pm
Uneaixoise
my mom made the best cobbler . . . sigh . ..
4:52 pm
Uneaixoise
peach pie . . . yum
4:54 pm
MollyL
And be proud of me Une, I have perfected the art of home made pie crust. There is no going back once you do that.
4:55 pm
Uneaixoise
I am VERY impressed -- homemade crust -- am drooling LOL
4:56 pm
72 Temple Owl
that is great. i bought a peach pie made with canned peaches. the crust was killer but the filling tasted like they just dumped in a can
4:56 pm
Uneaixoise
canned peaches . . . ick
4:56 pm
MollyL
Any dough that includes the word PILLSBURY has been banished from my house.
4:56 pm
72 Temple Owl
even I, the lover of all things pastry, could not eat it
4:57 pm
72 Temple Owl
well, i do have a friend who used them and paula deen's cobbler recipe and it is very good. but he spiced the peaches.
4:57 pm
72 Temple Owl
molly, what shortening did you use?
4:59 pm
MollyL
I use butter. I cut it into tiny cubes and freeze it for 20 minutes before making the dough. Then the dough sits for a few hours in the fridge before I roll it out. I know Southern women swear by Crisco crust, but I just can't.
5:00 pm
MollyL
And I would never use canned fruit in a pie or a cobbler.
5:01 pm
MollyL
Except pumpkin pie. I tried making pumpkin pie with fresh pumpkin once and that is a mess I will never recreate again.
5:04 pm
Uneaixoise
funniest pumpkin pie story ever-- my daughter's good friend Alexandra was so proud of her first ever homemade pumpkin pie . . . . until everyone took a bite and they discovered she's left out the sugar! LOL
5:04 pm
Uneaixoise
*she'd
5:05 pm
MollyL
Worse than that, there is a family story in my clan about an aunt who left the sugar out of rhubarb pie. How gross is that?
5:06 pm
Uneaixoise
wow -- pursed lips out the wazoo, eh? LOL
5:06 pm
72 Temple Owl
butter crust. i have made oil crust, but it is not all that tasty.
5:06 pm
MollyL
Bitter, bitter, bitter.
5:07 pm
72 Temple Owl
lard crust is very good, but i cannot eat it.
5:07 pm
Uneaixoise
back in a bit . . .
5:08 pm
72 Temple Owl
what is your seasoning? i would think some cinnamon?

The felon trip clue made more sense.

7:58 pm
sukee
I am trying not to check lickety yet
8:01 pm
MollyL
Sorry. I often get confused when people ask for clues in chat but don't want to look at Lickety's clues.
8:01 pm
sukee
Well excuse me. Because if I look at the list I will check the others, I want a little challenge.
8:03 pm
rururocks
kind of like bichon sukee?
8:04 pm
sukee
I don't ask for many clues
8:04 pm
rururocks

Good evening, my babble buds :)
8:52 pm
Jellen
Hey Crossy
9:59 pm
Nef
Good Evening. Is anyone still around? Wemhad some storms blow through, so I've just turned on my computer now & have 73 words left to find
10:00 pm
Nef
Hi Jellen, how are you tonight?
10:01 pm
Jellen
I'm fine. How about you?
10:06 pm
Nef
I'm okay; We were lucky because when we heard about the storm coming; I was able to get everything put away before it hit. We did lose a storm door that we were going to donate to the ReStore for Habitat for Humanity (it didn't fit in our car, though; so it was laying on it's side & leaning against a fence & I didn't realize the storm would be strong enough to knock it over.
10:11 pm
Jellen
That's good not more was damaged.
10:15 pm
Nef
yes. We had 3.6 inches of rain in our rain gauge in less than an hour, & the news said the winds were over 60-70 mph. We'd had chairs & garden tools & a bunch of other stuff out in the yard left over from last night; and the wind was strong enough to toss our fire pit upside down too (even though it had a lot of ashes in it - which should have made it heavier.
10:16 pm
Nef
How was your 4th of July, Jellen? Did you celebrate or watch the fireworks?
10:18 pm
Jellen
My fourth was quiet, except for the neighbors. Tried to keep the puppy calm.
10:20 pm
Jellen
Just firecrackers until the wee hours.
10:21 pm
Nef
A friend has 2 very nervous dogs when there are storms; she swears by the dogs' "Thundercats" to help keep them calm
10:23 pm
Jellen
He wasn't bad; the only problem was getting him to go outside to do his business. lol
10:23 pm
Nef
don't you hate it when people still shoot off firecrackers after 10 PM?
10:24 pm
Jellen
Try 1 or 2 am...ridiculous!
10:25 pm
Nef
Oh My! That late I'd probably try to talk to them; or else call the police!
10:25 pm
Nef
(Yes, that IS ridiculous!)
10:29 pm
Jellen
Need any clues? I finished earlier.
10:31 pm
Nef
I'm down to 60 words left; too many to clue I think. It's okay if you need to go, I'm just plugging away here> :-)
10:33 pm
Jellen
I'm watching Psych on Netflix. Just passing time.
10:35 pm
stidmama
hey all
10:35 pm
Nef
hi stid. how are you doing today?
10:35 pm
stidmama
not bad. tired, but that was to be expected. you?
10:36 pm
Nef
doing okay. Also tired, but have to wait to go to bed
10:36 pm
stidmama
:-) Nice to see you again Jellen
10:37 pm
stidmama
for why wait, Nef?
10:40 pm
Nef
For DH to fall asleep. His legs are spastic until he is asleep; so I just wait for him to go to sleep before crawling in bed. (I get cranky if I'm disturbed when I'm falling asleep)
10:41 pm
stidmama
oh... I am sorry about that. I am an "active sleeper" also -- fortunately once Tom is tired enough almost nothing wakes him! LOL
10:42 pm
Nef
It takes me less than 5 minutes to fall asleep; but just don't move during those 5 minutes or I'm very cranky
10:42 pm
Nef
(And I know he can't help it, but I still get cranky!)
10:42 pm
stidmama
:-D duly noted... *packs self-dissolving superglue for active spouses -- only works for 15 minutes*
10:45 pm
Nef
And tonight was his shot night; so it's usually much worse on that night
10:45 pm
stidmama
yuck. dislike shots...
10:46 pm
stidmama
ah. down to 30. going to list. brb
10:48 pm
Nef
(I give good shots; there is a trick to it. If I give a shot; I always distract the vic-- er patient and make sure their muscles are relaxed and it doesn't hurt! If a person tenses their muscles, it always hurts.
10:48 pm
stidmama
smart nursy-person!
10:49 pm
stidmama
tu 7 please?
10:49 pm
stidmama
I had a lot of fish left in the babble puddle!
10:49 pm
Nef
Well, in the future, just remember to relax your muscles & it won't hurt as much.
10:50 pm
Jellen
tu 7 = snapper + consanant
10:50 pm
Nef
Sorry, stid, I don't have it yet but will look now
10:50 pm
stidmama
I do, actually -- I breathe out as the needle approaches and then deliberately let my muscles follow my breath.
10:50 pm
stidmama
oh gee -- thanks Jellen!
10:54 pm
Nef
Thanks Jellen.
11:07 pm
stidmama
the last CU 6?
11:09 pm
Jellen
cu 6= silverware cu****y
11:10 pm
stidmama
aha! down to 6 ...
11:10 pm
Nef
Rhymes with the gentleman's assistant Victorian England
11:10 pm
Nef
Go stid! You can do it!
11:13 pm
stidmama
oh nef, that is a great clue! :-D
11:14 pm
stidmama
I am glad to finish it...
11:15 pm
Nef
YAY, stid!!! WTG!!!
11:17 pm
Nef
I forget to refresh every so often & then lose some words.
Or post in the wrong box; I guess I'm tired after all.
11:18 pm
stidmama
I find that some words I had entered disappear, but since I leave the page and come back sometimes hours later it doesn't matter too much.
11:20 pm
Nef
Yeah, I just think that I've already entered that word (& forget to look & see if it's listed or not)
11:27 pm
Nef
I seem to be losing it here, I need to go to bed. Take care & Happy Babbling! :-)
11:28 pm
stidmama
Sweet dreams Nef. Be well.
11:28 pm
stidmama
Does anyone need clues before I head out also?
11:28 pm
Jellen
Night Nef!
11:52 pm
stidmama
guess not -- sweet dreams, all!
11:55 pm
Jellen
Gnight stid
