hamentaschen are pastries shaped like biblical villain Haman's three cornered hat. They are essential to Purim. I'm making yeast dough ones as we speak - 3 fillings: poppy, prune, or apricot.

It's also the Jwish holiday where one is encouraged to act outrageously -- the services are noisy and filled with noise makers at the sound of Haman's name. Liquor flows .

I just saw the dumbest, but funny, movie - How to Eat Fried Worms

1:08 am

VolleymomDee

I just saw how they made "fake" edible worms that were soooooo realistic LOL

1:10 am

:|

sounds like fun

1:11 am

VolleymomDee

made me chuckle... certainly would be a favorite of 11 year old boys

1:12 am

:|

and a good halloween treat, assuming they tasted nice

1:13 am

VolleymomDee

LOL... there was an special feature on the DVD about how they were made... a creative mum might be able to duplicate them... a few of the flavors I remember are - tapioca, pistachio, and cheesecake flavors

1:14 am

:|

sounds pretty good

1:15 am

VolleymomDee

when our daughter was young, I do remember making a recipe with oreo cookies as dirt, gummy worms in terra cotta pots... but I think there was another ingredient that is escaping me right now (my daughter is 23 now, so it has been awhile)

1:15 am

MVA

i know a few children who prefer the natural flavour of worm!!

1:15 am

VolleymomDee

LOL MV icky!!

1:17 am

:|

this is my latest freaky recipe http://penfield.psych.uiuc.edu/omnibra
in/2006/10/brain-recipe.html

1:19 am

VolleymomDee

oh how funny; I don't think though that I have ever seen pomegranite juice in our grocery??

1:20 am

:|

it's in the health section i think volley

1:20 am

:|

you could probably substitute with cranberry

1:20 am

MVA

ground to a halt, got to go, have fun all!

1:21 am

:|

bye mva

1:21 am

VolleymomDee

hmm cool; the pic is so realistic looking; isn't there also a recipe that looks like eyeballs; I vaguely remember seeing something at one of my daughter's friends' houses at Halloween

1:22 am

:|

haven't seen that 1 volley, but there was a human torso one with pastry that had sauce filled pockets that oozed as you cut them

1:22 am

VolleymomDee

YUK!!

1:23 am

:|

lol

1:23 am

VolleymomDee

I'll have to remember all of these tips for my future grandkids

1:24 am

saphyre

hi Fran - bye nan

1:45 am

FranMag

hi saph!

1:46 am

FranMag

just saw your 80s icon saph, can you believe they're coming back?

1:47 am

FranMag

we went to the zoo one day and a young girl had them on with flip-flops and a mini-skirt. quite bizarre

1:47 am

FranMag

especially since it was about 80 degrees F that day

1:47 am

saphyre

really?

1:48 am

saphyre

I remember people wearing them in the summer - never made much sense to me :)

1:49 am

FranMag

people in Guam were wearing them, it hardly gets below 90 in Guam.

1:49 am

saphyre

my kids had a million pair - but they all took ballet several times a week so they had a good excuse :)

1:50 am

Bloodaxe

they're big in morocco and germany as well.

1:50 am

FranMag

maybe they never went out of style. :-)

1:51 am

saphyre

that's one fad I can deal with - some should have never happened, forget about them coming back :)

1:51 am

Bloodaxe

it's possible, but in order for them to be "retro", wouldn't they have had to?

1:53 am

saphyre

well ballet people always wore them - but not really for style

1:57 am

saphyre

I wish it was 80 or 90 here tonight or that I had leg warmers right now - I'm so cold

1:58 am

Bloodaxe

me too saph...leg warmers should be required for babbling.

1:58 am

Iain

must go by all

1:59 am

saphyre

bye lain

1:59 am

saphyre

and fingerless gloves would be nice too - maybe I wouldn't make so many typos if my hands weren't so cold

1:59 am

Bloodaxe

bye lain

2:01 am

Bloodaxe

are you babbling outside saph?

2:01 am

BabbleRabble

2:01 am

Bloodaxe

are you babbling outside saph?

2:02 am

Bloodaxe

hey br!
i heard you guys got hit pretty hard last night. ndsu cancled classes!

2:02 am

saphyre

No, I'm at work at the hotel which is right on the water and it is very windy and rainy - just can't get warm

2:02 am

Bloodaxe

aaahhh...and i suppose it's a big open room that doesn't hold any heat.

2:02 am

saphyre

2:03 am

BabbleRabble

3:07 am

Atalante

worth a go! you just need to get a *good* stream of air around under the keys

3:07 am

Atalante

if *that* doesn't work, you can normally prise the key off, clean it and put it back on, but not fun to do if you don't like fiddling with computer stuff!

3:08 am

FranMag

jen, do you have a q5 before the royal one?

3:08 am

You're probably stretching the definition of 'plodding', sprite, if you're going at your usual pace.

4:18 am

4:25 am

KatieMcG

I know it's not much of an achievement but you have to take pleasure from what you have got :-)

4:25 am

Haz1558

The only problem is trying to convince non-babblers that it's a good thing. We understand.

4:25 am

sprite

it IS an achievement! Be proud, this kind of thing gives a kick :)

Oh Scrabbler, what an awful thing to wake up too. Thankfully you weren't hurt.

7:05 am

Scrabbler

And my downstairs bunny was OK--probably too scared to go near anything.

7:05 am

Eva

scrabbler-had a hysterical time yesterday going out to fill the bird feeder. Thought I'd be fine in boots because I had tromped down a path with snow shoes last time, but of course sank 3 feet down, flopping over, pulling myself out with trees, laughing so hard made it more difficult. The birds had better appreciate their breakfast this morning!

7:05 am

Scrabbler

So, $185 for new glass/installation

7:05 am

Mom

That is a good thing. I am glad the bunny was ok!

7:05 am

Scrabbler

LOL, Eva---snow-quicksand

7:05 am

LoriP

Phone call interrupted my lat 6 words

7:06 am

LoriP

*last

7:06 am

Eva

at least my boots stayed on. That's always fun when you pull the foot out sans boot

7:06 am

Scrabbler

Lori--get your priorities in order--fireworks before phone calls

7:06 am

Mom

I am glad it is all fixed and you can stay warm.

7:06 am

Scrabbler

Yes, I have done that Eva---haha

7:06 am

Mom

7:07 am

Mom

I had better go. I have housework to do before going out to lunch.

7:07 am

Haz1558

Ah, drum roll quietly in the background then.

7:08 am

Scrabbler

Mom, it is not fixed yet--glass is on order, but I covered it in plastic, then a paper bag from Abercombie & Fitch with a really hot young stud looking at me!! I will miss him--reminds me of having posters in my bedroom when I was a pre-teen

7:08 am

LoriP

LOL Haz

7:08 am

Mom

lol Scrabbler! You can still keep him up there

7:08 am

LoriP

See ya later Mom. Housework is evil

7:08 am

Eva

I've been monkeying one of the ey4/6's for 5 minutes andmust keep missing the right one.

7:08 am

Mom

that would be an appealing sight to see each morning

7:09 am

Mom

It can be, Lori

7:09 am

LoriP

2 of the ey's are an anagram for each other

7:09 am

Haz1558

7:10 am

Mom

7:13 am

Eva

7:13 am

Uneaixoise

hey, Inge :-)

7:13 am

Haz1558

Nothing so disastrous that she can't be comforted by a shirtless man...

7:14 am

LoriP

I devoted undue time to it as well Eva, glad it helped.

7:14 am

Eva

must be an alt spelling of the hebrew letter?

7:14 am

Scrabbler

I agree, Hazel, and it is a short-term solution to comfort me.

7:14 am

JFB

The reason I ask is that I've just been to a Womens World Day of Prayer service which was prepared by Paraguan women. It was the most uplifting WWDP service I've been to

7:15 am

ch1212

How wonderful, JFB. I've participated in WWDP in the past too.

7:15 am

LoriP

Scrabbler, that sucks! Glad no injuries occurred.

Haz1558

Bye inge2.

7:17 am

LoriP

Later Inge

7:17 am

Inge2

yes, and they are laughing mocking voices!

7:18 am

LoriP

Tell the voices that when you want their opinion you'll give it to them! :-)

7:18 am

ch1212

Bless you JFB! Our world needs all the prayer we can muster, and at the risk of sounding sexist, women are powerhouses of prayer as a group!

7:18 am

Inge2

Here's something funny: I work at a psych hospital. In the parking lot I saw a bumper sticker that said "Don't believe everything you hear"

7:18 am

Biltong

JFB we once had a guest preacher at our Church in SA and she was from Paraguay. Just can't remember her name now.

7:19 am

ch1212

That's great, inge

7:19 am

Scrabbler

I often hear them too, as if the words are teasing me---"I dare you to find me", "I am the Ghost of RE, I am here to haunt you."

7:19 am

LoriP

sy7/36 - variant spelling of a mineral. sy, a vowel and the hours of darkness, American style.

7:24 am

Haz1558

to7/32 - plural of te6/21 - te, then a poor spelling of the Sesame word (replace last vowel in the word with another)

7:27 am

Biltong

Haz, I have te6/21 - highly strung. Is there another te6/21?

7:28 am

Haz1558

Yes, it comes just after the highly strung one.

7:28 am

Biltong

ty, Haz

7:29 am

Hello all

7:29 am

Aloyisius

7:38 am

LoriP

The storm hasn't started here yet (9:40 am) but they cancelled school. 10 storm days in 4 weeks

7:39 am

Biltong

Where are you, LoriP?

7:39 am

The latest buzz word is 'challenging'.....

7:39 am

Aloyisius

wow, LoriP... where are you?

7:40 am

7:48 am

ursh

I think it is the buying that they hate really

7:48 am

ihatemonkeys2

its not the tupperware itself, its the parties!

7:48 am

LoriP

I inherited some Tupperware, ursh is correct, the hub curses it and says he can't close it. I never have any trouble.

7:48 am

ursh

7:48 am

LoriP

I just send my order. I HATE the parties. I feel compelled to buy things I don't want.

7:48 am

Alleyn

Not seeing many te clues!

7:49 am

LoriP

te + 4th vowel + frying ***, then plural

7:49 am

K.Elisabet

My dad worked for the Tupperware company for a while, as a plastics researcher.

7:49 am

ursh

T/W parties seem to have fizzled out here - they just have displays on barrows in shopping centres

7:50 am

LoriP

How's that Alleyn? :-)

7:50 am

Anniebrook

7:50 am

LoriP

LoriP

G'd morning ren.

7:55 am

Haz1558

Tupperware stands the te4/4 of time.

7:55 am

K.Elisabet

Oooh, maybe I'll do that! But I did just find some great stuff at IKEA. Lots and lots of small containers, perfect for lunchboxes.

7:56 am

9:27 am

Vicuna

Sorry to give you shivers, Ata, and I do have seven stitches on one finger from the woodcutting tools. But that's the beauty of this new rubber they have. Unlike lino, your tools don't slip, and you don't have to push so hard so it's way safer. But I really should go get a clue pic instead.

9:27 am

doxy1lover

clue for the 9 please?

9:27 am

I never liked lino, either. I had no interest in block printing until the rubber company sent me these samples of the new stuff. I've been doing block prints as my primary medium pretty much ever since. Yes, I am spreading the good news about E-Z-Kut! (Actually, there are several brands now.)

#3 kid is trying to taech the cats to turn on light switches with the laser pointer. They can jump quite well, when chasing that beam....

9:52 am

movieman

my cat always jumps up onto the ledge outside my sitting room window whenever he wants to re-enter the house.....

9:53 am

raelite

I heard about a cat being taught to play fetch

9:53 am

Atalante

he was a kamikaze cat. fox? no problem? next door's alsatian? he'd give it a go!

9:53 am

raelite

wow, Ata, that's quite the kitty

9:53 am

Sam

I had a cat that would fetch peanuts

9:54 am

markbowers7

my cat has brought home cows, once attacked a full-grown alligator, and protected our family when we were burglarized

9:54 am

Sam

my neighbor's cat would fetch olives

9:54 am

Atalante

he was a big ginger tom with a feral father and a burmese mother. he was *fabulous*

9:54 am

GoBraves

how many words today?

9:54 am

movieman

145

9:54 am

raelite

sounds like, it Ata

9:54 am

Vicuna

Most excellent, markb! :)

9:55 am

markbowers7

he is our cute little kitty...don't know why the zoo keeps calling us

9:55 am

GoBraves

thanks move

9:55 am

raelite

lol mark

9:55 am

Vicuna

My cat comes when I whistle.

9:55 am

Atalante

he used to follow me to school *sigh* then I'd have to miss the first lesson taking him home!

9:55 am

raelite

my aunt actually raised tigers and mountain lions

9:55 am

Atalante

wow!

9:56 am

LoriP

LOL Atlante, how creative....

9:56 am

raelite

I know...it was wild...my parents would never let us go see her when she had one, though...and that she was in chicago and we were in Montreal

9:56 am

Atalante

thats one cool aunt!

9:57 am

raelite

she liked to drink too...she owned a 7-11

9:57 am

Vicuna

Ummm... My aunt had a dog named Lady?
Sigh. That's the best I can do!

9:57 am

Atalante

she raised them just as pets, or did she raise them for a local zoo / wildlife park?

9:58 am

Vicuna

Strong drink and wildcats MAY not be the best combination. I can see why your parents didn't want you too close!

9:58 am

raelite

she raised them for the zoo

9:59 am

Atalante

must have been awful for her having to give baby tigers away when they were ready to go!

9:59 am

raelite

they were babies though...I was always so mad I couldn't go play with the tiger cubs!

9:59 am

raelite

she would give one back and another zoo would call her

9:59 am

Atalante

I want that job

10:00 am

raelite

the thing about the 7-11 though: she had all these leftover stuffed toys from the claw machine and when we got to visit, we could take as much as we wanted!

10:00 am

raelite

when I was 8, she was the pinnacle of aunty-ness

10:00 am

LoriP

Well, I have successfully used up 4 potential housecleaning hours. Well done!

10:00 am

Atalante

wow! I bet!

10:01 am

raelite

but no tigers... :(

10:01 am

raelite

she lives in florida now...in her mid 80

10:02 am

Vicuna

Maybe she can still keep alligators.

10:02 am

raelite

ha! maybe!

10:02 am

lizmac

11:41 am

pida 1

I always thought that "in a pigs eye" was derrogatory

11:41 am

cybernan

I couldn't see any connection between the defs. -- wouldn't want it applied to me either as an endearment or anything else!

2:13 pm

Scrabbler

Change is scary, but you are making positive steps.

2:13 pm

torgone

You're just coming to grips with the situation ..

2:13 pm

stidmama

hurshy, I had a massive panic attack last night. I spent an hour just focusing on breathing... head under the pillow and thinking through.

2:13 pm

Uneaixoise

hursh, you're making great progress but what you're doing is understandable VERY anxiety-producing!

2:13 pm

hurshy

but what if i can't handle living alone? working full time? commuting?

2:13 pm

stidmama

so first steps... are you breathing?

2:14 pm

stidmama

hurshy -- what if you can?

2:14 pm

hurshy

yes, i'm breathing.

2:14 pm

BabbleRabble

So, hurshy, you are anxious now?

2:14 pm

Karys

hurshy...you're a big girl now...Mommy would be proud of you !

2:14 pm

Scrabbler

I had a major anxiety episode from 4:30-5:30 AM

2:14 pm

stidmama

take each step by itself. like teaching a math problem.

2:14 pm

hurshy

yes, i'm anxious now. a bit less so. but that may be cause i'm now home.

2:14 pm

torgone

You will of course handle it .. You are feeling very natural feelings ..

2:15 pm

Judi

Afternoon, all. Hurshy! Congrats on your move! One day at a time, girl. You are woman. I can hear you roaring from here.

2:15 pm

stidmama

the only way I get through times like you are going through is to take each step by itself. The whole big everything is TOO big. But each piece is manageable. Focus on the piece that is here right now.

2:15 pm

hurshy

but i couldn't even go to the interviews i was supposed to have, cause i couldn't stop crying.

2:15 pm

Scrabbler

Hursh, you will take the steps to handle this new life, to be independent, to figure out where your life is going, to learn a new city and job

2:15 pm

BabbleRabble

remember, the negative chatter about a future contingency that may never happen is making matters worse.

2:16 pm

Karys

tomorrow will be better than today

2:16 pm

hurshy

i THINK it will be easier when i'm THERE and can take the T and stuff, not have to figure out the driving/parking situation.

2:16 pm

Judi

There is so much to do and see in Boston. And the public transit is very decent. Using it is much better than having to drive around Boston on your own. EEKS.

2:16 pm

Scrabbler

You are leaving your comfort zone but you will create a new comfort zone.

2:16 pm

stidmama

that's okay hurshy, a learning experience. And so now you can think about how to schedule your next interviews to be less stressful.

2:17 pm

stidmama

hurshy -- it's relevant -- may I share something I have done that I am very proud of?

2:17 pm

BabbleRabble

because you did something today is no reason to believe it will always be that way

2:17 pm

Karys

go on stid

2:17 pm

hurshy

of course my family doesn't want me to separate in the first place, so they're all, if you're not SURE, maybe you should wait

2:17 pm

Judi

You're nervous, Hurshy. But, think of the CATS!

2:17 pm

hurshy

but my fears have nothing to do with being unsure about staying in the marriage...

2:17 pm

BabbleRabble

simplify... interview at a place not high on your list; practice

2:18 pm

hurshy

yes, please do stid.

2:18 pm

Karys

hurshy....you know what you need !

2:18 pm

stidmama

As you know, our elder son was struggling with algebra. A lot. I knew I could help him, but I had to talk to the teacher and make arrangements to take him out of class and be at the school every day...

2:18 pm

hurshy

actually i don't know if i do, karys!

2:18 pm

Uneaixoise

good advice, BR

2:19 pm

stidmama

And I did it. In less than a month, he is caught up to his class! But I was so scared I wouldn't be able to get out of the house, or that I could still teach at that level. I had so many "what-ifs"... and I worked through each one in small pieces and got there.

2:19 pm

BabbleRabble

so what has changed from last week to today?

2:19 pm

Karys

yes you do hurshy....believe in yourself.....you know yourself best...just listen to what is in YOUR head and YOUR heart, not everyone elses

2:20 pm

BabbleRabble

everyone has self-doubts going outside a comfort zone to something new... that is to be expected

2:20 pm

Karys

good for you Stid.... now you will be able to look back and say ' look what I did'

2:20 pm

stidmama

hurshy, reading back down -- sometimes the hesitation is about exactly how to take the step, not whether the step should be taken. Follow your heart (like Karys said).

2:20 pm

BabbleRabble

the idea is to do what you can to make increase your chances of succeeding

2:21 pm

stidmama

We'll see if it sticks Karys -- he'll reintegrate in the classroom on Monday! :-)

2:21 pm

Scrabbler

Talk back to that "worry voice" and challenge it.

2:21 pm

Scrabbler

Good luck to Stidmatt!!

2:21 pm

BabbleRabble

reduce stress by doing one or two things ... not so many

2:21 pm

hurshy

i don't know...

2:22 pm

Karys

oh gosh stid.....will you have any fingers, let alone nails , left by Monday evening ?

2:22 pm

Karys

yes you do hursh.... you would not have got this far iot you didn't !!

2:22 pm

BabbleRabble

remind yourself you have succeeded in the past; there is no reason to believe you will not succeed now

2:23 pm

stidmama

LOL Karys, we'll see. It will be good to have my mornings to do my actual creative work again (I'm really more into art and garden than math).

2:23 pm

stidmama

BabbleRabble is very wise!

2:23 pm

Karys

me too stid !!

2:23 pm

Scrabbler

Go, Hursh, go! You are NOT alone...the Babble Team is with you every step!

2:23 pm

Uneaixoise

BR is indeed wise . . .

2:24 pm

BabbleRabble

you are a problem solver .... calm yourself down and figure out a plan

2:24 pm

stidmama

hurshy, you have done a big thing. Relax and enjoy the moment, relish having taken this step (or mustard if you don't like relish) -- breathe, take a long hot bath (or whatever relaxes you), and focus on something you enjoy for a little bit. Then move on.

2:26 pm

Karys

eeermmmmm....I still have 17 words to find !!!

2:27 pm

stidmama

down to ten here Karys, but in a holding pattern.

2:27 pm

hurshy

i dunno i dunno i dunno

2:27 pm

stidmama

{{{hurshy}}} you don't have to know right now. Just breathe.

2:27 pm

Karys

hurshy......you will, you will, you will !!!...believe !!!

2:28 pm

hurshy

i just called a lady who would be interested in maybe hiring me but it's so far

2:28 pm

Scrabbler

That's OK, hursh, just do what you need to do IN SPITE of your fears. When things settle down, in a few months, or a year, or whenever, you iwll be proud that you got through it!

2:28 pm

hurshy

2:30 pm

BabbleRabble

2:30 pm

Judi

Hurshy - I think you have three days to rescind.

2:30 pm

Karys

then thats a good thing Temple !!

2:30 pm

AsGreen

hi scrabbler!

2:31 pm

2:31 pm

AsGreen

2:31 pm

72 Temple Owl

2:33 pm

72 Temple Owl

hey hursh - did you find a better place?

2:33 pm

stidmama

I can understand being stressed out hurshy. There are many logistics to work out. In my experience, though, things DO work out.

2:33 pm

BabbleRabble

are you in danger, hurshy

2:33 pm

stidmama

Australia? why?

2:33 pm

Scrabbler

Wow, karys! That will be cool!

2:34 pm

hurshy

i don't know. i guess not...

2:34 pm

stidmama

hurshy, I think the first step for me would be to call and ask about the lease. Then, with more information, you can make a better decision about the other things.

2:34 pm

Scrabbler

I already have it though

2:35 pm

stidmama

I don't know if it counts as a word if its a babbler's name...

4:53 pm

Haz1558

Two of the ey4/6 are anagrams of each other so check them. so5/14 - s a double helping of the vowel, then the beginning of the seeing organ.

4:53 pm

Vicuna

Everything's yummy with peanut butter!

4:53 pm

Cathyar
