dc, i hate KK, too fatty, and yes they are over nc...tim hortons has yet to foray down there.
1:55 am
dcseain
KK basic yeast too sweet for me; i like their cake and filed cake donuts, esp the cinammon apple
1:56 am
VolleymomDee
hi jili .. all I missed... dc.. could any of the food have msg in it... I have developed severe allergy to it, and I am finding it in many, many foods (even some cereals)
1:56 am
dcseain
i eat so much Chinese, Thai and Vietnamese, that would be a very sudden reaction to MSG, sep since grandma cooked with it.
1:57 am
herinfernallady
VOlley you could look on line for the codes of MSG and its by products
1:57 am
westford
volley my boss' wife would get severe migraines from MSG if she accidentally ate something with that in it
1:58 am
flosey
i'd get a headache just inhaling the fumes of msg
1:58 am
redturtlehead
I love Chinese, and Thai. Next job I am going somewhere with both, but have to say the NM style food has not been bad at all...
1:58 am
VolleymomDee
ditto that; ended up in ER once with severe gut pains from it, so I am ever so careful; was almost banned/removed from production in 80's, but since it extends shelf life so much, it is in tons of things now
1:59 am
jillibus
I'm so glad I don't seem to have any allergies
1:59 am
VolleymomDee
is anyone finding this one difficult besides me?
1:59 am

Oh yes.... the board is twice as big... there are quadruple letter and word scores and double the tiles..
5:51 am
rolin
ooooohhh..where?

And it's doubly addictive. Regular Scrabble seems so confined!

The old fashioned way, Rolin - on a board!

5:52 am
Jandy
I bought it at Christmas on a web site for board games. Haven't seen it in the shops.
5:53 am

And yes, of course it takes twice as long as a regular game. Don't think we've finished one in under 2 hours.
5:53 am

Sounds good, might buy it...thanks Jandy

6:54 am
Jacula
coolgirl - de5/26 is the first part of a word meaning 'to remove the gas that we breath from'. de6 puts a consonant in the middle of that.
6:54 am
Jacula
carlee - It tasted very nice. Not too sweet.

bay leaf tea.. works for tummy aches. Steep a few leaves in water and add sugar if you want. BE CAREFUL.. Never swallow a bay leaf! they don't break up and stay hard and are a choaking hazard.
7:50 am

peri - de9 = thicknesses.

the demonstrations said the sessions could be done over the telephone..do you agree?

8:13 am
periwinkle
I guess she meant that she spoke with the client over the phone, reiki is sent through the air, so to speak. it is a form of energy healing
8:13 am
LoriP

8:14 am
Uniquity
Of course Lori would come up with that clue.... ;)
8:14 am
LoriP
de + Boston red *** + sometimes vowel
8:14 am
Anniebrook
No, he said he did healing over the telephone. Okay, sorry to be a pest
8:14 am
LoriP
dy + no in German, or something close to it....LOL
8:15 am
LoriP
Quiet #1. Shhhh :-)
8:15 am
periwinkle
reiki is not done with words, he probably had the client on the phone at the time he was sending reiki to them
8:16 am
LoriP
No wonder I couldn't get the m's. I totally dismissed the my possibilities. Ack
8:16 am
periwinkle
it is called distance healing Annie. I prefer hands on Reiki or Reiki given a few inches from the body. But distance Reiki is fine too
8:17 am
periwinkle
did he say how much he charged per session and how long the session was. What was the person's name
8:17 am
Atalante
peri, in distance healing, how can you focus on a person to heal them if you don't necessarily know them or could picture them? Not being argumentative, really interested. And HIIIII!
8:17 am
lucy777

Anniebrook
peri, my husband had a reiki session many years ago..I sat with him and the reiki master never touched him. He was much better for about a week but then he was too ill then. He never gave his last name but his first name was Jordy. He said he charged on a sliding scale.
8:20 am
periwinkle
Ata, don't do a liot of distance healing, mostly for family and my friends on Babble. I ask for the name, age and location of the person. That is what I was taught by my Reiki Master
8:20 am
LoriP
I clued them gran
8:20 am
Anniebrook
peri, my husband had emphysema...I had to drive him there and help him in but he walked out on his own and drove home...he had relief for a week...but he was too ill then
8:21 am
LoriP
de + Boston red *** + sometimes vowel
8:21 am
periwinkle
my experience has only been with people I know or know of from others. There are people who apparently do quite well with distance Reiki and they charge for it too
8:21 am
LoriP
de + *** Contin is dangerously addictive
8:21 am
Atalante
that makes sense. I agree with you, though, hands on / nearly hands on seems more ... I don't know ... something. I had the weirdest experience of my life having a session of nearly hands-on reiki. Its quite amazing.
8:22 am
periwinkle
wish I had more people and animals clients :(
8:22 am
Anniebrook
yes, it was amazing to see the difference in my husban

I have received two e-mail requests for animal reiki from my ad. The last one was from a woman with a 15 year old dog with cancer. When I told her I would come to her home since animals are more comfortable in their own home, she did not respond
8:24 am
periwinkle
what can I do to assure people that I am a nice, decent person. was thinking of adding bonded and insured to my ad.
8:24 am
Atalante
add a picture?
8:24 am
LoriP
Bonded and insured prominently noted, or you'll go nowhere fast.
8:24 am
periwinkle
that would mean a much bigger ad, Ata. but it is a thought
8:25 am
periwinkle
really Lori
8:25 am
periwinkle
wish I had know that when I placed my ad back in Nov
8:25 am
GraceM
bonded and insured would be a motivator for me...hi all
8:25 am
Atalante
what does bonded mean?
8:25 am
periwinkle
how does one get bonded and insured and how much does it cost
8:25 am
LoriP
People aren't going to take a risk of a stranger, with no history, particularly coming in to their hime, IMO
8:26 am
periwinkle
well people who do massage and other body work are not necessarily bonded and insured
8:26 am
GraceM
even the dog walker I sometimes use is bonded and insured.
8:27 am
periwinkle
was thinking the same thing Lori, might have to go that route and pay the extra money
8:27 am
Atalante
what does bonded mean?
8:27 am
LoriP
It's a different time now, unfortunately. people want to see "bonded and insured" lets them know you've been checked out.
8:27 am
Uniquity
That is privileged information, ata, that we are not allowed to know.
8:28 am
LoriP
for criminal history, and financial security Ata
8:28 am
GraceM
bonded here means background checked... but it may vary from state to state
8:28 am
Atalante
are we too young, uni??
8:28 am
periwinkle
how do I go about getting bonded and insured thought
8:28 am
Atalante
is there a professional reiki organisation you belong to? could you add their name / badge to the ad?
8:28 am
periwinkle
*though*
8:28 am
GraceM
for ex, one has to be bonded to work in a bank...
8:29 am
GraceM
check with your SBA for state regs peri.
8:29 am

I don't belong to any at the moment, Ata

Hi Nonnie
9:23 am

yes, prices are crazy
9:23 am
NonnieLight
Mine was doing the same, nance. I've switched to the rimless and haven't had a problem since.
9:23 am
Dorens
my lenses are too expensive.. if i chose those $$ frames i'd end up close to one grand
9:24 am
doxy1lover
I can't believe the price of a pair of metal circle. It's rediculous
9:24 am
NonnieLight
Hello scrabbs!
9:24 am
nancethefan
& don't 4get the price of the lenses
9:24 am
redturtlehead
Thats why I have the same ones but I do wear my contacts a lot...
9:24 am
Dorens
i love the rimless, but they can't grind my lens fine enough for them
9:24 am
Anniebrook
What works best for me is tortoise frames..I find them to be comfortable and not too expensive. I have a pair of metal frames that I find to be too heavy and the price was very heavy too
9:25 am
nancethefan
next time i am getting army glasses - lol
9:25 am
doxy1lover
red, I love your Africa pictures.
9:25 am

After two years the wire frames were really stretched out. I went back and they told me that they could not fix it and I do not want to pay money for a new pair, ergo I am dealing with the ones I have

9:27 am

Then the chicklet wanted me to get the superduper lenses and I asked for the basic lens price. She said, "Oh, but the featherlites and anti-glare and scratch-resistance are essential...blah, blah, blah" ...ka-ching, ka-ching, ka-ching...$, $, $! I got a basic frame and lens for $154 instead of original quote of $274! And I got 2 pairs so I have a back-up. I once donated a pair to the Atlantic Ocean at Atlantic City a few summers ago. Doren, will you look for them for me, maybe they turned up.
9:27 am

I think I would like to do something like that too.

9:28 am
doxy1lover
how long were you there red?
9:28 am
NonnieLight
OK, this is what my daughter told me...if your face if oval/round you should go with a square frame. If your face is square you should choose an oval/round frame. I can't even see what looks good on my face because they've usually put the eyedrops in and everything is blurry so I go with comfort and price.
9:29 am
Aloyisius
Have a great weekend, everyone.. see you next grid! byee
9:29 am
Dorens
haha scrabs.... i am never in Atlantic City, but if they work their way up to Monmouth County beaches, or even up to martha's vineyard, I'll look for them, along with a few contact lenses I lost back when they were hard little bits of plastic

Yuck, my last gulp of coffee had coffee grounds in it. I spit it out into the cup.
10:06 am
Haz1558
nance - if you get the red banner coming across, then it's either not a word or not in the grid. Sometimes words aren't accepted because they're not in the dictionary that Babble uses. In this case, I've never heard of iles.
10:06 am
Scrabbler
I passed halfway! Time for a break. BBL.

10:18 am
nancethefan
o yay 4 me - ty
10:18 am
Haz1558
nance - if you look in your word list at the words you have already got, you'll find the word, the letters and the points. The points on four letter words are just the values of the tiles. Five letter words are points multiplied by 2 and so on.
10:19 am

When I was a midwife, lots of women said their cats knew something ws different and became more gentle
12:25 pm

aw - so sad. Bob died 4/15 last year of the mass poisoning from chinese food.

song history -This is one of those ubiquitous tunes which was popular with the American people for at least half-a-century -- popping up in all sorts of places -- as the vehicle for political campaign songs (at least eight of them); for alcoholic reform (though in its original version, it is a drinking song); for the unofficial state song of Washington; for a Civil War song; for a Southern folk hymn; and for a comic opera air. It is a captivating tune of Irish origin introduced in the 1830's as a rolicking drinking song.

The Devil opened up his case and said "I'll start this show," and fire flew from his fingertips as he ro5ed up his bow...
12:26 pm

your cat ate chinese food :-)
12:26 pm
Angela
oooo!! great song douglas! Saw him in concert last year.
12:26 pm
JBV
hmm, thanks nDan - lots of informatioin there
12:26 pm

Angela...how do you get over the anger of losing a pet due to that sort of thing?
12:26 pm
dcseain
ty nDan!
12:26 pm

but what about Burl Ives?
12:26 pm

yw, joanne
12:28 pm
Angela
thankfully my other cat was picky and wouldn't eat it
12:28 pm
Kizah
It's infuriating...I can't even describe it. I know cats and dogs are just pets, but my little Chihuahua means the world to my husband and I...not to mention my nephews and our friends' children.
12:28 pm
AnnieOakley
I had a dog and 2 cats. One day a free gift sachet of coffee granules came through the door and puppy ate them!! He was very anic!!!
12:29 pm

12:29 pm
Krista
hi guys..what song are you discussing?
12:29 pm
dcseain
i like that song, douglas; i'm planning to learn the fiddle parts, they sound like fun to play.
12:29 pm
joanne0334
hi krista

Old Ro5 the Beau, Krista
12:30 pm
dcseain
and douglas, ro7 up his bow is in the grid, too.
12:30 pm
Angela
we don't have kids and they were our babies for years. sad thing was we gave it to him for the first time at the time of the recall because he is diabetic and wasn't eating when we moved. we were trying to help him...talk about guilt!
12:30 pm
Krista
hey joanne...ah, never heard of it..i love burl ives..did he "cover" the song?
12:30 pm
Krista
Hope your bday was fun, Seain.
12:30 pm
JBV
I don't have my book anymore, dc, but I think my childhood was longer ago.
12:30 pm
JBV
well, I was the one that mentioned burl ives - seem to associate his voice with the song
12:31 pm
dcseain
totally unstructured, and very pleasant, ty, krista
12:31 pm
Kizah
It's not your fault though...giving your pet food is what you're supposed to do...you didn't make any bad decisions. The horrible part is that I doubt anyone will really ever be held accountable for the pain they caused families. Again...I know they are just pets, but pets mean a lot.
12:32 pm
Angela
I know it's not my fault but it is still a bad feeling. It was slow and painful for him, he was always a big boy but dropped 10 lbs in a month.
12:32 pm
Kizah
I'm not one to think that money makes up for things, but I do think that having to pay financially is a consequence that carries a lot of weight for companies, etc. Still...would the money come from those responsible and get to those harmed?
12:32 pm
Krista
that's always the best kind..except last year, when i turned 40, i threw myself a huge backyard bash! my first inclination was to ignore it, but I went in the opp direction instead
12:32 pm
periwinkle
fireworks for me
12:33 pm
dcseain
congrats, peri!!! :)
12:33 pm
Krista
yay peri!!!
12:33 pm
joanne0334
congrats peri
12:33 pm
periwinkle
thanks, am going now, happy babbling
12:34 pm
Kizah
Angela...I didn't mean to discount your pain and guilt...I was just trying to be supportive. Sorry if it came out wrong...I'd feel the same way you do, I know I would.
12:34 pm
Angela
I can't imagine Kiz that there would be any money that would be paid out. I'd rather just bow out of any litigation. Won't bring him back unfortunately.
12:34 pm
Angela
bye peri!
12:34 pm
Krista
now i keep thinking of The Devil Went Down to Georiga..(Johnny RO5 up your bow and play your fiddle hard...)
12:34 pm
Angela
no - not at all Kiz!! I didn't take it that way one bit. I know what you mean.
12:35 pm
dcseain
yeah, dougles brought that one up, too :)
12:35 pm

good gravy marie! it's Angelini!
12:37 pm
Kizah
Lawsuits often don't work because it really taxes the people who were harmed...to the point where they just don't want any more hassle and pain. It's seems easier for the accussed...the victim is always the real "guilty" party. I won't go into all my social system concerns (have a background working in that field), but I know the victim has to work harder to prove the crime than the perp does having to prove he's/she's innocent. (sigh) Onto happier thoughts...
12:37 pm
dcseain
well, it might be, now that i mistyped it :)
12:37 pm
Krista
i def won'tbe making it tonight, unfortunately..had a VERY long day in Baltimore yesterday then barely slept last night (too tired to sleep, if that makes sense)
12:37 pm
dcseain
NP, krista :) every other Saturday, just let me know.
12:38 pm
Angela
exactly kizah - we had a long run with him especially since he was diabetic. we really just feel lucky he was in our lives at all :)
12:38 pm
Krista
