8:35 am

ChampFit

5/16 is like the sound a bird makes...change the last letter.

8:36 am

MollyL

Sorry I wasn't paying attention to points

8:36 am

bichon

ty CF, Molly

8:36 am

BzznBea

LOL! I'm debating as to whether I should journey out. I need sugar. Couldn't find any on Friday's shopping trip.

8:36 am

BzznBea

Did you ever get your yeast?

8:37 am

MollyL

The latest thing the stores are out of here is maple syrup. I guess everyone quit making bread and started making pancakes and waffles. Yes, I am the proud owner of a one pound bag of yeast.

8:37 am

bichon

I ought yeast at Costco long ago and is in the freezer

8:39 am

BzznBea

I've been busy adding pics to flickr again.

8:39 am

MollyL

Once it is opened, I store yeast in the fridge. In an airtight container.

8:40 am

MLFAN17

ty champ

8:40 am

BzznBea

I ordered three loaves of bread from a local man who backs in a brick oven.

8:40 am

ChampFit

NP!

8:40 am

BzznBea

bakes

8:41 am

MollyL

Wow Bea, you are really good at quilting. My favorites are the pumpkin and the doves.

8:41 am

MLFAN17

I want to spell celery

8:42 am

BzznBea

Thanks, Molly. I wish I good do squiggles and swirls or free motion quilting, just not good enough and I hate practicing.

8:43 am

BzznBea

The ribbon on those doves took forever, but I am so pleased with the outcome.

8:44 am

MollyL

It is beautiful. The people who get your hand made quilts are very lucky folks. I would consider it an honor if someone took the time to make a quilt for me.

8:45 am

BzznBea

I don't know what the kids will do with all this stuff some day.

8:45 am

MLFAN17

i gtg will be back..

8:46 am

MollyL

Hopefully, hand it down to the next generations. I have some of my grandmother's hand made afghans. I think they are itchier than they are cozy, but I'm glad I have them.

8:51 am

bichon

I still have the mohair sweater my Mom made for me in the lat 50's

9:04 am

Uneaixoise

I knit a mohair sweater in the '60s.....was soooo proud....but the finished sleeves would have fit an orangutan! :-)

9:05 am

periwinkle

not getting the clue for the ex6

9:07 am

Uneaixoise

Ex + ar4/6

9:07 am

periwinkle

ah ty now I get Bea's clue

9:20 am

MollyL

I think Bea is old school like me, and tries to only use two letters of the word in her clues.

9:23 am

JaxH66

I don't like giving 2 letters if it's only a 4 letter word, especially if a high value tile is also used elsewhere in the word

9:24 am

MollyL

I'm with Ru on cluing 4 letter words. I refrain from doing that.

9:30 am

BzznBea

If you are going to clue a four or five you might was well enter the entire word.

9:31 am

MLFAN17

sometimes I think we can find 5 6 7 8 etc easier then finding a 4 letter word

9:47 am

MLFAN17

ET5clue please?

9:48 am

MLFAN17

ET5

9:49 am

penquis

another way of spelling the needle case...

MollyL

I found it in morewords

9:50 am

penquis

i'm happy for you... ;o)

9:51 am

MollyL

I never seem to see that spelling. That is why morewords is a helpful tool.

9:52 am

MLFAN17

I keep forgetting that's what that word means

9:52 am

penquis

I think I usually see it because it's a word I like....

9:52 am

hokie carla

celerier seems perfectly legit

9:52 am

penquis

9:52 am

MLFAN17

i tried that word and the word without the r at the end

Monkeying is the absolute key to this grid. With all the weird and implausible words, a non-English speaker wouldn't be at much of a disadvantage...

11:45 am

periwinkle

indeed ori

11:45 am

hurshy

well, not having any luck. anyone feel like cluing L6?

mattygroves

Hi peeps. I finished a while ago (a rarity these days_ but for those of you who came to hearJeff (my OH) play this evening - THANK YOU. It was a fun virtual gig and made even better by your participation. Cheers all!

3:42 pm

Trifioso

Im trying a new recipe today, but not feeling overly optimistic - batter looked funky on way into oven....lemon brownies. sounds good, right? We will see.....

3:42 pm

LisaG

it can also mean "duh" lol

3:42 pm

Trifioso

hi matty!

3:43 pm

LisaG

lemon brownies? With white chocolate chips?

3:44 pm

Trifioso

no, with a lemon glaze on top. I love lemon

3:44 pm

LisaG

Me too! Are they traditional chocolate brownies, or white brownies?

3:45 pm

Trifioso

no chocolate, just lemon zest, lemon juice, eggs, flour, sugar, backing powder, butter.....

3:46 pm

LisaG

oh that sounds very good to me. I love lemon bars, but the crust takes so much time for me to make that I usually only make them for special occasions.

3:46 pm

Trifioso

my only "problem" wtth lemon bars is that I will eat an entire pan in one sitting

3:47 pm

MollyL

Matty, will Jeff's gig be on YouTube later? I would like to see it.

3:47 pm

LisaG

Ha ha, I have a wax warmer on right now with Sicilian lemon wax melting in it and it smells so good
