ty Molly

7:51 am

bichon

I was thinking that the Austrian pastry was torte

8:07 am

MollyL

If you do a Google search on Austrian pastry, the word I meant comes right up

8:07 am

MollyL

Not to mention the "reinvented lyrics" to Raindrops on Roses, a song which mentions the pastry

8:19 am

cybernan

good morning everyone :)

8:20 am

Scrabbler

Hi Nan

8:26 am

bichon

Hi Sxrabs. Did your bunnies have a good Easter

8:27 am

Scrabbler

Yes, and I have a guest bunny staying in the Cottontail Room for 3 weeks. For my friend that is in Florida for 3 wks.

8:30 am

Judi

Good morning, all. Scrabbs has a Bunny B&B.

8:30 am

Scrabbler

Yes, this is his third stay at Rabbitat.

8:31 am

Judi

He can visit your spa and have his hare done.

8:31 am

hokie carla

tell me more, I'm all ears

8:33 am

Scrabbler

I might do a complimentary nail trim before he goes home.

8:34 am

hokie carla

I think the vet must've done Winston's nails when he got his teeth cleaned last week. they definitely seem shorter.

8:35 am

hokie carla

yep, just checked the bill - nail trim - courtesy

8:36 am

Scrabbler

Nice.

8:42 am

cybernan

nm -- got it from the points

8:51 am

hokie carla

I have 20 left that seem impossible

8:51 am

hokie carla

TO! my picture is little bunny cakes. I bought a baby bunny cake pan a couple of weeks ago. :D

8:52 am

cybernan

I listed at 18 and only found 2 that I should have seen

8:52 am

hokie carla

I was thinking that was probably going to happen, nan. just no way to make real words that I can see.

8:52 am

72 Temple Owl

ah, now i see them

8:53 am

cybernan

*!*~*!* hagd everyone

8:53 am

hokie carla

8:53 am

MLFAN17

owl hokie's icon looks weird to me oo

8:53 am

hokie carla

molly thinks they looks like bunny embryos and is grossed out

8:53 am

MLFAN17

i had to click on it to see what it was

8:53 am

72 Temple Owl

late start, much to do. spring cleaning and all.bye

8:53 am

hokie carla

in the thumbnail they remind me of a pan of rolls

8:54 am

72 Temple Owl

um, shall i tell you what they looked lie to me?perhaps not.

8:54 am

hokie carla

bye!

8:54 am

HarryHood

it does kind of look like something from Eraserhead

8:54 am

cybernan

guess I should change my icon from the giant pysanka

8:54 am

72 Temple Owl

little chickens. perhaps cornish hens.

8:55 am

MLFAN17

yeah i have no idea what i thought they were but glad i clicked lol

8:55 am

MLFAN17

i will be back...

8:56 am

hokie carla

hmm, my google is not showing any austrian pastry that starts AL and i watched My Favorite Things scene from SoM.

8:56 am

HarryHood

it ends with a misspelling of the pastry

8:56 am

72 Temple Owl

puff pastry, with apple or cherry or cheese

8:57 am

HarryHood

agent 99 is in the grid!

8:59 am

MollyL

Arrrrgggh...ENDS like the Austiran pastry

8:59 am

hokie carla

oh, it's chemistry? why didn't you say so

9:00 am

HarryHood

now you've got molly all riled up.

9:00 am

hokie carla

well obviously I missed ENDS LIKE

9:00 am

MollyL

I can't figure out how to word clues so people will actually READ them. Any suggestions?

9:01 am

hokie carla

it's possible I read what others were saying about your clue

9:02 am

MollyL

As to what Harry said...Barbara Feldon

9:02 am

HarryHood

yay

9:02 am

hokie carla

before my time, but I did try feldon earlier JIC

9:02 am

hokie carla

since I still need 6 Fs!

9:03 am

HarryHood

as well as the bumbling younger corleone brother

9:04 am

MollyL

Fredo

9:04 am

HarryHood

woohoo

9:04 am

hokie carla

has anyone found the 2nd F in the top row? feel like it has to be FR, yet nothing works

9:04 am

HarryHood

he had a fettucini dish named after him!

9:04 am

MollyL

Him and his buddy Al

9:04 am

HarryHood

it seems like a plural carla

9:05 am

hokie carla

would it bother y'all if I say I have never seen any of The Godfathers?

9:05 am

HarryHood

you should really take care of that

9:05 am

hokie carla

finally! thanks, HH

9:05 am

hokie carla

I definitely think I tried that

9:05 am

HarryHood

25 to go

9:06 am

hokie carla

15

9:06 am

HarryHood

have to drive my daughter back to college today. but I got my 2nd pfizer this morning - I hope the side effects don''t' hit me on the way back.

9:08 am

hokie carla

me too! good luck. My son had his 2nd pfizer on Th and he came over here on Fr for Easter weekend. He was a little "slow", foggy headed, but that was about it. He said his arm was sore but less sore than the first one.

9:08 am

hokie carla

(BTW, the me too was referring to I hope you don't have side effects on the way back)

9:08 am

HarryHood

hope it's ok. seems randomly severe.

9:09 am

hokie carla

my middle bro had his 2nd on Thu as well, not sure if Pf or Mod, but he had no ill effects whatsoever. my oldest bro had about a 6 hour flu feeling after his 2nd Pf. does seem random.

9:10 am

HarryHood

I'll take a couple tylenol before we leave.

9:10 am

hokie carla

good idea

9:13 am

HarryHood

bbl. 21 to go!

9:13 am

hokie carla

bye! have a safe trip.

9:13 am

hokie carla

still 15. think I'm going to list.

9:14 am

hokie carla

still 4 4's, guess I will look for those first.

9:20 am

hokie carla

well, only found 1 4 and a couple of others, so now 12 with the list.

9:20 am

hokie carla

argh, missed a 4 homophone

9:21 am

mkg

Now i am salivating for some of that great austrian pastry.........ugh..........

9:22 am

hokie carla

they're not really my favorite

9:25 am

hokie carla

well, out of my last 12, I should have gotten 11 without the list. disappointing.

9:40 am

hurshy

9:40 am

Cosmo Kramer

al7

9:43 am

hurshy

hmm, not fettucine alfredo

9:44 am

MollyL

Yes, and it does rhyme with another pasta in the grid

9:46 am

10:02 am

MLFAN17

10:10 am

MollyL

No clue who the Admiral is but it also rhymes with Ozzie and Harriet's last name

10:10 am

MollyL

Or Mandela's first name

10:14 am

hurshy

he was a famed British naval man during the Napoleonic wars

10:14 am

hurshy

sorry, the only other person by that name i could think of at the time was my friend who died last summer, and i knew that wouldn't work as a clue...

10:15 am

MLFAN17

i have it already ty

10:17 am

MLFAN17

i googled it

10:20 am

hurshy

11:02 am

moolingwa

I'm sorry I 'm not familiar with it

11:03 am

hokie carla

I think I checked it out one day after people complained and it looked unusable now. I used to use it a while back but then one day it was down and I found bestwordlist.com

11:03 am

hokie carla

hey moo!

11:04 am

moolingwa

hey hoke...happy monday :)

11:04 am

LuvWordGames

I'll have to check that out carla

11:04 am

LuvWordGames

because A to Z is much more difficult to use

11:05 am

hokie carla

luv, there are different ways to use it. I use word begins with and you have to click first letter then second letter, etc

11:05 am

MLFAN17

i use morewords

11:06 am

hokie carla

the one time I looked at morewords I thought it was horrible

11:06 am

moolingwa

I have nothing to offer

11:07 am

hokie carla

so smug ;)

11:07 am

LuvWordGames

I just checked out bestwordlist.com and really like it. Thanks for the info. :-)

11:07 am

MLFAN17

i dont like the fact that a video comes up and plays while i am searching

11:07 am

hokie carla

no prob!

11:08 am

LuvWordGames

MLF does that happen on bestwordlist?

11:08 am

hokie carla

bestwordlist does occasionally have words that aren't on enable FYI

11:08 am

LuvWordGames

It didn't happen to me just now

11:08 am

hokie carla

she is talking about morewords I htink

11:08 am

hokie carla

think

11:09 am

LuvWordGames

yes, I've encountered that with A to Z sometimes too & usually got elsewhere if that happens

11:09 am

moolingwa

we each play our own way :)

11:09 am

MLFAN17

yes on the morewords page

11:09 am

hokie carla

it is a last resort for me but it's more of I can't stand not knowing what I'm missing than I have to finish

11:09 am

LuvWordGames

well, thanks for the info. HAGD everyone

11:10 am

moolingwa

yeah, it can be quite frustrating when you know it's there

11:41 am
