12:27 am
Book Doctor Gwen

12:28 am
Book Doctor Gwen

the 8 is from the ba 6 having to do with elections.

good thing i took a class on aberdeenshire towns in college
12:32 am
justafreep

is it the one that looks like a strange typo of the fruit, Nan?
12:33 am
cybernan

begins like the knitted toque that you pull down over your face (eyeholes and mouth hole) when it is really cold out -- or maybe when you are robbing a bank
12:33 am
hurshy

12:37 am
hurshy

12:37 am
hurshy

apologies if people were not wanting clues, i got over-excited
12:37 am
Gillie

Considering that I was one of the first to get the 8, my brain isn't working very well
12:38 am
hurshy

interesting note: no gallow, only gallows. BUT, apparently, IF it connected, we COULD have cahoot, not only cahoots!
12:39 am
Gillie

I guess a cahoot is something you have by yourself?
12:39 am
cybernan

wa 6-7
12:39 am
hurshy

cahooting with myself, oh-oh cahooting with myself
when there's nothing to lose and there's nothing to prove

Gillie

There's a wa5 wa5 in Ontario too, with a giant goose sculpture.
12:40 am
hurshy

name that proper noun! swedish car make
12:40 am
cybernan

Gillie are you in ON or AB?
12:41 am
Gillie

AB, but I spent a bit of time in Ottawa years ago
12:41 am
harpjane

if you do it with a friend, you can call yourselves Cahooters
12:41 am
cybernan

ok - thought you were in AB
12:41 am
hurshy

and if you open a restaurant called cahooters, and the first two lightbulbs burn out, then the men who come in are going to be sadly disappointed
12:42 am
cybernan

oh - buy those girls another drink!
12:43 am
hurshy

te7!!!!!
12:43 am
hurshy

sorry i'm REALLY excited about things tonight, idk why
12:44 am
harpjane

SATB shoul be a word. it's used in music, although it's an abbreviation.
12:44 am
hurshy

i think we have quite enough wacky words without that one, thank you
12:45 am
Gillie

Sorry - the goose is in Wawa. A music professor once had a contest for the most chiasmi (musical representation of the cross) we could find in a work by J.S. Bach, and the prize was a placemat with a picture of the Wawa goose (in full flight).
12:45 am
cybernan

releif that the federal train has headed back to the track?
12:46 am
Gillie

You mean COVID benefits?
12:46 am
hurshy

federal train, covid benefits, i can't follow this at all
12:46 am
cybernan

no -- I was asking Hurshy if that is why she was feeling giddy
12:47 am
hurshy

oh, no, didn't even know what the federal train was doing
12:47 am
hurshy

it's just having watched home alone and feeling festive probably
12:47 am
cybernan

looks like Trumps days are numbered - no?
12:48 am
hurshy

all our days are numbered (she said, trying to be somber)
12:48 am
hurshy

ok, there is AL6-7, and it's sorta like the canadian province but you take out two letters in the middle and replace them with just one letter
12:49 am
hurshy

How did your turkey turn out Matty?
4:58 am
worzel

gallow doesn't exist because gallows is the singular. It's plural is gallowses
4:58 am
mattygroves

It was lovely, actually! I made a rub of butter, fresh rosemary, dried thyme, smoked paprika, a bit of orange rind, garlic, salt and pepper. Put onion and carrot and a bit of water in the bottom of the roasting dish - it came out beautifully
4:58 am
mattygroves

Thank you!
4:59 am
MollyL

Your rub sounds great. I bet it gave the turkey a wonderful flavor. Glad it turned out well.
5:09 am
mattygroves

It did. We had mash, stuffing, honey roast parsnips and carrots, green beans and gravy (and wine)

BzznBea

How about you dinner?
7:29 am
MollyL

It was nice. Not as good as eating at home, but a small way of all of us being together. My son said his restaurant was slammed with take out orders. I was surprised.
7:31 am
MollyL

There was a table for the orders to be picked up in the lobby and there must have been 50 bags on there when we left.
7:31 am
BzznBea

Wow! Did they have a full menu or a limited menu?
7:32 am
MollyL

Full menu and a special Thanksgiving menu. We got a lot of perks. It's nice dining in a restaurant where you son is the Manager. : D

BzznBea

How was your turkey?
8:31 am
hokie carla

turned out good. I ended up moving it to the oven, bag & all because it was taking longer than I thought and I needed the IP for the potatoes. then it puffed up and stuck to the element so that was nice.
8:32 am
BzznBea

LOL!
8:32 am
BzznBea

Was it a cooking bag?
8:32 am
hokie carla

it was one of those reynold's oven bags for turkeys.
8:34 am

I have been grooming Winston myself the whole time, but I don't have a dryer and he's kind of a pain to work with. I should just start using someone else.
8:49 am
Trifioso

i had to give my goats a bath a couple of weeks ago. THAT was a trip.

8:53 am
Trifioso

I have the SWEETEST 12 year old girl in my honors english class. She is still a complete innocent. Recently, my classes read a short story which ended at the climax, concerning a boy who was TERRIFIED of elevators. The students were assigned to retell the story, from a different perspective. This lovely young one chose to write from the perspective of the elevator. First line of her essay: "He was the strangest boy I ever had inside me."
8:53 am

I never had a dog until my daughter was in high school

I asked the teacher why she didn't give points for corect cap and punctuation.
8:56 am
jzw

My dyslexic son used autocorrect once in a 5th grade science class. Instead of "the results of the experiment" out came "the results of the excrement".
8:57 am
Scrabbler

Hahaha.
8:57 am
Trifioso

oh dear!!!
8:57 am
BzznBea

Oh, no, jzw. Autocorrect is not a friend.

I voice texted a parent once - I am sorry, I can't tutor on thursday because I have parakeets on fences. What I SAID was parent/teacher conferences.
8:58 am
jzw

His teachers loved it. He was at a special school so they understood. Got an A anyway.
8:58 am
hokie carla

yeah, one of my friends uses voice text a lot and there have been some really funny ones.
8:58 am
Trifioso

that is the best kind of school, where the teachers understand
8:58 am

Gallows is the singular

9:00 am
hokie carla

monoglot?
9:01 am
BzznBea

Gallowses is the plural

9:18 am

9:19 am
Trifioso

I think of it as the "charlie brown football word?
9:19 am

It is called the Periwinkle Phenomenon.

9:23 am
hokie carla

9:23 am
BzznBea

That sounds good. I was also thinking about warming up some stuffing that has sausage in it with a dallop of cranberries on top.
9:23 am
rururocks

finished.. have a great day everyone
9:23 am

For lunch today is what my clan refers to as THE sandwich. Turkey, stuffing and cranberry on a home made roll.
9:24 am

A bit like bubble & squeak?
2:40 pm

I know it's not a British holiday, but I wonder if it has asserted/inserted itself along into your culture (the way Halloween has in various places in Europe)
2:41 pm
zoozzoom

Afraid not. Well not that I have noticed. No one here mentions it.
2:41 pm
jbp

wow, I haven't thought about bubble & squeak for years.
My mom always made us sandwiches of the dressing (not stuffing because we don't put the stuff in the bird)
2:42 pm

IAre you familiar with James Corden? I was watching his show the other night, and he remarked that in England, they have a different name for Thanksgiving. It's called Thursday.
2:42 pm

heh,

When I was little boy my mother used to make us that on a Monday with the leftovers from our Sunday roast. So nice! We were very poor back then haha! Although not that much better off now.
