1:32 am
flosey

1:33 am
grannyrose
i made it with pork today. very interesting and very yummy. that soup has so many ve\gs in it.
1:33 am
flosey
have never made a soup with pork, usually beef
1:35 am
grannyrose
ditto flosey. i usually use beef. but today i used pork with vegetable and chicken stock. the flavours of all the vegs came to the fore.
1:35 am
flosey
sounds yummy
1:42 am
grannyrose

Excellent news.
1:45 am
grannyrose
how are you both? surviving the heat and storms?
1:46 am
Lizlin
Neither storms nor that much heat here right now! Lovely non humid days - we’ve taken long beach walks most days this week.
1:47 am
grannyrose
oh lucky you !! what is himself doing to fill in his time?
1:47 am
flosey
no heat yet, it's Winter here - but west coast doesn't get much snow - just rain!! Interior of BC is more like the Winters I grew up with in Ontario
1:48 am
Lizlin
We’ve planted loads of veg - radishes, tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, chilli - all growing and we’re beginning to use them.
1:48 am
grannyrose
we have already had days when you step out of dors and feel like a sledgehammer has hit you.
1:48 am
Lizlin
I like your West Coast weather Flosey.
1:49 am
flosey
bless his heart Rose, he's doing all lthe cooking these days - bad back - bending over counters etc, not good
1:49 am
grannyrose
lovely liz. nothing so nice as eating/using your own home-grown vegs.
1:49 am
Lizlin
We had a couple of stupid hot weeks back in October but now it’s nice again.
1:50 am
grannyrose
flosey, don bought me a wheelie walker which can become a seat. i use it to cut up ingredients at the table, rather the benches.
1:51 am
Lizlin
That was a good idea. Clever Don.
1:52 am
grannyrose
maybe mr flosey needs a stool on wheels which he can lock as he scoots around the itchen.
1:52 am
flosey
sounds like a very good idea, must start looking around
1:52 am

*hugs rose* Hello my darling, it was inspiring and fun as always. Came home yesterday, very tired, still am tired. Deep relaxation kinda tends to bring out the fatigue you thought was so well hidden inside, lol. But worth it.
1:58 am
sprite

2:04 am
sprite
well, they can call it quickly. I call it way too slowly. But yeah, for workcover, this was fast. They finally learned not to f*** with my bestie.
2:04 am
grannyrose
i cooked a MASSIVE pot of minestrone for our community lucheon today. very successfully i may add.
2:06 am
grannyrose
i used pork instead of beef. and chicken and vegetable stock. the flavour was so different to using beef and beef stock.
2:07 am
sprite
tasty. We don't eat it anymore, since Rob cannot eat beans
2:07 am
grannyrose
well leave them out silly.. loll
2:08 am
sprite
nah, not the same. Still a tasty soup, but not a minestrone.
2:08 am
grannyrose
or once the soup has cooked without the beans, put beanless soup in another pot and add all the beans to your soup.
2:09 am
sprite
:D *loves rose to pieces*
2:10 am
grannyrose
i have two who hate pasta in their soup. i cook the lot, ladel out their soup, the add the pasta to the big pot and cook it for the rest of the diners.
2:17 am
grannyrose
btw, Deacon is going through an"honesty" period. everything he finds, and he doesn't know what to do with, he is taking straight to his dad. Simon has been praising to the mostut. simon is such a great dad.
2:17 am
sprite
that is so so cute! Of both of them.
2:19 am
grannyrose
it's like Simon remembers what his own father was ike and is making every effort to NOT be like him. talk about breaking the cycle...
2:19 am
sprite
good job on him. So important to break that cycle of abuse.
2:21 am
grannyrose
yeah, i know. but youngest son, Josh and wife Jen are in difficulties with the reproduction part. my heart goes out to them. they would both be wonderful parents.
2:22 am

hi wv ty do any of the ne words extend to make the ne 7?
5:44 pm
Tomago
errr. on the question of extending an Ne word to Ne 7... Yes, one does. Not a typical suffix extension though.
5:46 pm
MollyL
I was just thinking of Nancyboy. Not sure why.
5:46 pm
Tomago
sorry, my bad. the word I thought was being extended is not an accepted word. Only enable knows why. But the 7 is an extension of the rejected ne 5. I just assumed it was accepted and didn't look.
