Herbs vs. Spices
We often use the words herb and spice interchangeably. Herbs and spices are obtained from plants. (Salt is neither a spice nor an herb. It is actually a mineral.) Herbs and spices are used primarily for adding flavor and aroma to food. And both are best used fresh but can be saved by drying. While there are similarities, there also are subtle differences between herbs and spices.
Herbs are obtained from the leaves of herbaceous (non-woody) plants. They are used for savory purposes in cooking and some have medicinal value. Herbs often are used in larger amounts than spices. Herbs originated from temperate climates such as Italy, France, and England. Herb also is a word used to define any herbaceous plant that dies down at the end of the growing season and may not refer to its culinary value at all.
Spices are obtained from roots, flowers, fruits, seeds or bark. Spices are native to warm tropical climates and can be woody or herbaceous plants. Spices often are more potent and stronger flavored than herbs; as a result they typically are used in smaller amounts. Some spices are used not only to add taste, but also as a preservative.
Some plants are both herbs and spices. The leaves of Coriandrum sativum are the source of cilantro (herb) while coriander (spice) is from the plant's seeds. Dill is another example. The seeds are a spice while dill weed is an herb derived from the plant's stems and leaves.

Looked up the def to see what it means in English.
1. Biology. The initial clustering of embryonic cells from which a part or an organ develops; primordium.
2. A genetic predisposition to a given trait or personality characteristic.
3. A fundamental principle; the foundation for a future development.
12:36 am

Or: an + site slowness + vowel = 6. Add consonant for the 7.

there are 2x ga6/27. Last 2 letters differ.

OK - got the an7 - the German hint helped - in english, an prefix doesn't usually precede p or l, converts to am for the p - enough linguistics....

yes, it did, melon! In Dutch you cannot have ANP either, the N becomes M before P. Not sure about the L, but pretty sure we don't have ANL words either.

Atalante
nice bit of German there!
1:56 am
FranMag
just found them on morewords right before you clued!
1:56 am
sprite
But with a different meaning, as far as I know. I thought in German it means something you send enclosed with a letter.
1:56 am
Crone
don't get site slowness?
1:57 am
sprite
Then you are one of the few lucky ones, Crone!
1:57 am
FranMag
crone, think a delay from when you click a button until something happens
1:58 am
Crone
can you try again for me? down to 5 words and seeing double
1:59 am
FranMag
an + f*** (old glory) + vowel
1:59 am
FranMag
then for 7 add another consonant on the end

I have a bi7, what does the other one begin with please?
5:17 am
kthdsn
ty haz is it a regular word that i have a chance of finding?
5:18 am
Haz1558
It's a German plural word for an6/24. Not a common word I would say.
5:19 am
Haz1558
In embryology it's the equivalent of a bud, in psychology it's an inherited trait.

an7 - google Belfast river, then change the final vowel. The singular word is formed by removing the final consonant

I have been on the receiving end of a thieving cat. Next door's cat once stole a bag containing 4 defrosting pork chops. Difficult to explain to your starving children......
5:33 am

Eva - He brought a large, raw chicken breast home last night. Someone's intended dinner, I think.:(

5:34 am
Jacula
Well, I've had a neighbour's cat jump on me and my daughter whilst we were actually eating our bacon sandwiches & nick some bacon. Another cat, I caught in the act of trying to drag a whole defrosting chicken off the work surface.

ROFLOL about stories of cat thieves and the idea of cats delivering pizza

Good morning LoriP. Maybe, maybe not. How's that for decision?
5:38 am
Scrabbler
My morning newspaper (tossed at the end of my driveway) is often missing, and I suspect neighbor's dogs steal it for their owners.
5:38 am
FMitch
It's a good mix of normal and the weird and wonderful today LoriP
5:38 am
LoriP
Haz, for breakfast, did you have waffles....... :)
5:39 am
Scrabbler
Lori, we will help keep your BSE (Babble self-esteem) in the high range. Just ask for clues!
5:39 am
Haz1558
No, I have the same breakfast every morning to save me having to decide on anything else!
5:39 am
LoriP
LOL Scrabbler, that's good to know.
5:40 am
Jacula
feline Fagin? That's nice. Harumph! I go off to make a pot of tea and I am maligned! LOL.

5:41 am
Scrabbler
Is everyone ready for their Thanksgiving feast? I still have a few items to buy, but the big bird is defrosting in the refrigerator (so the neighbor's cats cannot get to it)
5:42 am
kthdsn

5:43 am
Eva
One Thanksgiving heard a thump in the kitchen, as I was sitting with guests, went in and found the 26 pound turkey on the floor with the cat perched on top.....didn't say anything to anyone, but carved the bird before it got to the table to disguise the claw marks
5:43 am
FMitch
I'd love to see a cat try to steal a frozen turkey!

5:44 am
Eva

5:44 am
Jacula
One Christmas, my Mum and my auntie got drunk whilst cooking dinner & they dropped the turkey on the floor. They served it up and said nothing until afterwards.:)
5:44 am
Bloodaxe
i'll show you!
give me a sec.
5:45 am
Wolvie
tagine is great
5:47 am
Eva
non cat people can be a bit squeamish about things like a little fur or cat drool on their food. I just don't think abouit where those paws have been
5:47 am
Scrabbler
Or where their tongue has been.
5:47 am
Eva
well yes, that too(-:
5:48 am
Jacula
Yuk, Scrabbler. Well, Hunting Cat has a foot fetish - not only 'humps' my shoes but licks my feet. Makes Paul go green (and not with envy).
5:48 am
FMitch
I was never that keen on turkey anyway :)
5:49 am
kthdsn
I don't like turkey either
5:49 am
Jacula
...Which is why, when he licked the topping on a lime cheesecake & a chocolate cake, I binned them!:(
5:49 am
Bloodaxe
did it work?
5:49 am
Eva
Merp has a habbit of toe nibbling Jac-can be a bit shocking to guests, especially ones who unconsciously wiggle their toes
5:49 am

5:50 am
kthdsn

Blood - Yes. It looks tasty. You've made me hungry now.
5:50 am
Scrabbler
My bunnies are lickers too. Sebastian, the one I sleep with, sometimes licks me in my sleep and then I dream that it must be Russell Crowe or George Clooney licking me.
5:50 am
kthdsn

Jacula
Scrabbler - I'm not sure whether to laugh or cry.
5:50 am
Bloodaxe

5:51 am
bonkler

5:52 am

kt, tagine is a generic name for the type of dish. it's cooked in the clay pot on an open fire of hot coals. there are several different types of tagine, several variationsof chicken, beef, and lamb.
5:52 am
Scrabbler
Well, go ahead and cry for me Jac, because those men will never be licking me except in my mind.
5:52 am
kthdsn
oh ok blood, doesn't sound like my kind of food really
5:52 am
Jacula
Aw, Scrabbler.((xx))
5:53 am
Bloodaxe

5:53 am
bonkler
srabbler, if they're licking in your mind, at leaast it will keep your brain nice and moist
5:54 am
Bloodaxe

5:54 am
Jacula
bonkler - ROFLOL.
5:54 am
Scrabbler
That's OK, Jac. I accept that my fantasies are not at all based on reality. (LOL, bonkler)
5:55 am
Bloodaxe

5:55 am

Last year I helped my grandma clean out her closets and all her clutter to re-organize. I found 103 rolls of 110 film, so I had them all developed for her Christmas gift. I wasn't as crafty as you are though, but it was great sitting around looking thru them.

bunnyvicious
Oh, here's another. We just bought this house with the intentions to add on right. I framed out a cat house (big one) and then threw out my back, so he finished it. Looks like two four year olds put it together, horrible!! Can't imagine what the add ons will look like!!
7:28 am

7:30 am
kthdsn
lol faerie
7:31 am
bunnyvicious
He's not prone to impulse buys, he's actually pretty frugal. It was just the amount of the purchase that got to me, but he countered with, " You put a microwave and vaccum on the card!". So...
7:32 am
