9:57 am
MollyL
Yes Bea, ham it is. I made some biscuits this morning to go with. Nothing like starting the day with the smell of homemade biscuits.
9:59 am
BzznBea
There is a ro5.15 and 6.24 combo from the top R.
9:59 am
BzznBea
Other than that, they re all the usual suspects.
9:59 am
penquis
i have the 6, not the 5....hmmm....
10:00 am
BzznBea
I may do some biscuits. I'm going to roast a chicken.
10:00 am

I'm shell shocked by all this Easter punning
2:19 pm
rururocks
it's like they're coming rabbit fire at us
2:20 pm
mab
rabbit for dinner? and eggs? intriguing.
2:22 pm
rururocks
rabbits on the menu for disabled people.. you know ... the hared of hearing types
2:25 pm
mab
so considerate. the hared also favor peeps, i think.
2:25 pm
mab
oh, wait, peeps are chickens...
2:26 pm
mab
but furry like hares.
2:31 pm
mab
sorry to hearing impaired, lovers of furry candy, punners.
2:36 pm
mab
struggling with C words. can't crack them.
2:37 pm
hokie carla
totally not seeing the top T
2:37 pm
mab
see? i managed a pun. yes I can, yes I can, etc.
2:39 pm
mab
i've got the lozenge thing with one or two vowels on the end.
2:39 pm
mab
and, riding the horse at a clip.
2:39 pm
hokie carla
that's the only one I have, the horse one
2:40 pm
mab
and you didn't want clues, did you. or you would have asked for them. sorry.
2:40 pm
mab
and missing the other 2.
2:41 pm
hokie carla
oh, no. when I say I can't find words, I am fine with clues.
2:41 pm
hokie carla
just no idea what these lozenges are.
2:42 pm
mab
rhymes with the knitting with the hook.
2:42 pm
hokie carla
thanks, don't recall ever seeing that before.
2:46 pm
mab
had to look it up. thought it was the little hand bag.
2:48 pm
hokie carla
3 S tiles and only 13 words. that must be a record.
2:58 pm
mab
oh, pledge to another, not the pill.
2:59 pm
hokie carla
got it, thx
3:01 pm
hokie carla
well, I have HOET and 79 left. that may be enough for today.
3:04 pm
mab
oh, you can easily do 79 between courses.
3:04 pm
mab
and converse at the same time.
3:08 pm
hokie carla
one kid has left and the other leaving in the next few hours so I'll prob find more tonight. This grid is annoying though.
3:09 pm
hokie carla
* more words, not kids
4:42 pm
MollyL
Glad to hear kids are not multiplying in your home.
6:42 pm
mab
i put recipes in my profile sort of for the season, but not really that specific. tea eggs and an oniony kind of thing with rice.
6:44 pm
mab
not domestically gifted, so easy.
7:53 pm
penquis

8:10 pm

9:21 pm
hokie carla
any extra kids show up? 🤣
9:22 pm
72 Temple Owl
no. the baby was drinking a beer. apparently he just turned 18
9:22 pm
72 Temple Owl
there is a new baby- a grand niece-2months aold so that branch stayed home
9:23 pm
72 Temple Owl
the baby is 6'4'
9:23 pm
hokie carla
just the 4 of us here, but of course I made a lot of food
9:24 pm
72 Temple Owl
well for a last minute thing, it was a good thing my SIL and the sister who came are the cooks in the family.
9:24 pm
72 Temple Owl
otherwise i would have stayed home and made lasagna
9:24 pm
72 Temple Owl
oops lasagne
9:25 pm
hokie carla
well that sounds good too
9:25 pm
hokie carla
I mean, lasagna, not being home alone
9:26 pm
72 Temple Owl
all i had to do was get up early and make coconut pie
9:26 pm
72 Temple Owl
well, carla, that happens. thanksgiving was the first time back since 2020
9:27 pm
72 Temple Owl
and when my SIL had cancer, thanksgiving and christmas was home.
9:28 pm
hokie carla
I know. my mom said my brother took her to church, and then he brought her a plate from his SIL's.We are moving to about 2 hours away so I can get her and bring her to us.
9:29 pm
hokie carla
not sure when my other brother will risk a family get-together
9:31 pm
72 Temple Owl
are you in an rv still?
9:31 pm
hokie carla
no, we are living in one of our rental houses that came open when we sold our house in the fall. so we get to move twice in less than a year!
9:32 pm
72 Temple Owl
well i was nervous and my SIL hugged me. since her aged parents were there, i am sure she tested and was okay. still a bit unnerved
9:32 pm
72 Temple Owl
lucky you. still in same state though.
9:32 pm
hokie carla
really not looking forward to packing everything again.
9:33 pm
72 Temple Owl
i hear that.
9:33 pm
hokie carla
no! we are moving just across NC border to SC.
9:34 pm
72 Temple Owl
ah.
9:34 pm
hokie carla
so that stinks too
9:34 pm
72 Temple Owl
yes those pesky admin things
9:36 pm
hokie carla
well, I am giving up on this and the bee. think I will read. good to "see" you!!
9:37 pm
72 Temple Owl

9:38 pm
72 Temple Owl
i may sign up for the bee. they offered my a great deal
9:38 pm
72 Temple Owl
