1:14 am

similar to a spice cake, made with a can of tomato soup...with cloves and alspice
1:14 am

I've made tomato soup cake with a cream cheese frosting
1:14 am
jillibus
long ago
1:15 am
jillibus
still have the recipe somewhere
1:15 am
PAV3
that prob is it Jilli! since I can't have cinnamon, I was a bit trepid, til I found out ther's not in it...
1:16 am
Andree
pav hasn't allspice got cinnamon in it
1:16 am
Andree
sounds an interesting cake
1:16 am
jillibus
brb -- will look for the recipe...
1:17 am
nDanLia
Ground allspice is not, as some people believe, a mixture of spices. Rather, it is the dried fruit of the Pimenta dioica plant.
1:18 am
PAV3
well, our resident "baker/know-it-all" says alspice comes from it's own berry so it wouldn't have cinn unless it was added after grounding up...personally, she's a bit batty, and makes me wonder at times...
1:18 am
nDanLia
The name "allspice" was coined by the English, who thought it combined the flavour of several aromatic spices, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.
1:19 am
PAV3
and there you go, Dan has it!
1:19 am
GroovyKiwi
sweets for my sweet sugar for my ho5
1:19 am
GroovyKiwi
too much food in this grid tonite lol
1:19 am
Andree
thx dan that is very interesting i always thought it was a mixture of spices
1:20 am
PAV3
so if I can't smell the cinn in it, prob it has none, yes, Dan? I'd love a whole piece tomorrow...and then if I die you won't hear from me again!!=) How exciting!! and dangerous!
1:21 am
nDanLia
we had can in house growing up, so i'd read the side early on; to finish off knowledge:Allspice, also called Jamaica pepper,"Kurundu" Myrtle pepper, pimento, or newspice
1:22 am
Andree
that must be hard pav, lots of cakes, cookies and some meat dishes have cinnamon
1:22 am
jillibus
Tomato Soup Cake

Good thing too; have o take the cat to the vet and would't have wanted Walter to have to while he was that uncomfortable and would have had to cancel. Cat has, unfortunately, a Worrisome Lump.
6:12 am

our cats occasionly got lumps - they were abscesses due to fighting- had to be drained
6:12 am

Good news, MG!! Poor kitty though. There is always something to worry about.
6:13 am
sandyloo
how do you spell abscess
6:13 am
LoriP
Later haz. g'd morning MG, sandy
6:13 am
MonkeyGames
I have a lot of experience with this sort of thing (worked for vets lots and in rescue). Unfortunately this lump is hard and irregularly shaped and doesn't move around. But I still hope t's an abscess. However it ian't painful and abscesses usually are. Sigh.
6:14 am
MonkeyGames
Indeed, Scrabbs, always something.... it defines human nature, really.
6:14 am
Scrabbler
You spelled it correctly, Sandy.
6:14 am

hmmm that sounds worrisome and scrabbler is right there is always something to worry about
6:15 am

I awoke early this AM (before my alarm) and my head filled with worries.
6:15 am
sandyloo
doctors have more worries that the average
6:16 am
MonkeyGames
Yup. Smoothe edged, clearly subcutaneous, and moves about would all be GOOD things. Oh well. It's a good vet. This'll shoot that bank account down below 0 though, especially if they want an x-ray. Probably they'll start with a needle biopsy thopugh.
6:16 am

Why so many worries today, scrabbs?

My friend Mary is struggling and I am constantly thinking of her, her husband and the kids.

We think the cat is about 10. We adopted her from a friend moving away, about 7 years ago when we think she was about 3. That friend got her as a big kitten; vet said at that time she could have been anywhere between 7 and around 14 months old. So anyway, yeah, she's definitely ABOUT 10.

I have been profoundly sad for the last 2 wks, not depressed, just very sad and having difficulty focusing on anything else.
6:20 am
NonoNanette
good morning lil
6:21 am
MonkeyGames
No, especially where it is. I know a good bit about it and if it was just in the muscle of a thigh or something I think she'd do very well with surgery, but it's tucked under a front leg right up on the ribs and there's just too much risk of muscle and nerve damage and tehy'd have to go deep, I think. But she's not seeming ill so I have my hopes up.
6:21 am
Scrabbler
Hi Lil*monkey.
6:21 am

hugs, scrabs. It makes me sad too

Monkey, wise choice. As long as she is not seeming ill give her lots of love and attention
6:23 am
MonkeyGames
Yes, poor little guy. But he's through the really bad part now. Thing is though, he has a cold and it seems like he's white and tired like during the Bad Virus... how long does it take to get these all the WAY out of the system? Poor Sprite's family have been down with it for weeks, since Walter gave it to them, too.
6:23 am

Crossy, she has a severe myopathy (muscle weakness) from chemo and can barely move. Chemo is on hold, a muscle biopsy was done, and steroid treatment will start. The good news: the cancer has not spread or recurred. Bad news, as is often the case: the cancer treatment is so toxic.

Meanwhile Walter still really likes school and the changes I made around meals and so forth are seriously paying off: he's even trying new things.

Usual breakdfast: pancakes made with strawberry yoghurt instead of the milk. Lunch: various sandwiches; current favorite, salami and cheese. Dinners, still prefers rice but is now startingt o branch out.
6:32 am
MonkeyGames
Snacks usually rice cakes with butter and hagelslag, or crackers and cheese, apples, raisins, and I admit sometimes cookies or a surprise egg.

olease send her and her family all my best wishes,i defininatly understand the toxic part.the best you can do as a friendis to be there for her,for a ride,to make her a tea.i found that people and friiends just being there to lend a hand with daily things makes a world of difference as it gave me a posative outlook even in the depths of my treatments.give them all my love and hopes for a speedy recovery scrabbs

6:33 am
NonoNanette
have you ever monkied in a word and then not be able to see it in the grid?
6:34 am
MonkeyGames
He really likes apples and bananas and pears (although i think we'll try to keep bananas out for a few days).
6:34 am
sandyloo
she always ate my platters but wouldn't eat my meals and the platters were amazingly healthy
6:34 am

Oh and today in the woods we passed where the people at the bulb farm often put out flowers for sale. They had a big pile of organic purple cabbages. Walter isisted he wants one for dinner., so what the heck, I'll stir fry some! He will often try anything I am willing to put soy sauce on.
6:35 am
sandyloo
scrab, I really feel for you at the moment, it is so hard to watch and be able to do nothing
6:35 am
MonkeyGames
The cabbage he picked out is bigger than his head.
6:36 am
crosshair
i used to use the platter idea with my son as well sandy,i think ist something about the food being laid out all casual on a single large plate versus a formal dinner set up that makes picky eaters enjoy them
6:36 am
sandyloo
also it is in bite sizes , I think that helped
6:37 am
KatieMcG
afternoon everyone
6:37 am
MonkeyGames
I do that with Walter too. But things got to th epoint where he wouldn't eat ANYTHING but rice, no matter how it's laid out, but now with new scheduling and more strictness he's branching out again. I made him a chart with pictures of clocks so he can see when lunch and snacksa nd all are forthcoming.

6:51 am

I like the term "spastic running"--the bunnies look so funny when they do it--stop, start, turn, sprint...I think it is practice for running away from predators, such as you, Crossy.

NEver scratched or bitten in her life, loving, oddly doglike sometimes, adorse the dog (you should see her: she'll snag the dog by both cheecks with her claws so she can wash her eyebrows (dog is a Great Dane)). She followed us to playgroup a few weeks ago and let all the toddlers play with her. I was hoping she'd make it to 20 or so. Of course, maybe she still will, but I have to accept this is not looking good.

1:08 pm
Atalante
of course LOL! I just thought you'd like the beauty :D
1:09 pm
Vicuna
They are beautiful, absolutely!
1:09 pm
Atalante
I'm very impressed with her!
1:09 pm
Vicuna
Yes, that takes the combination of knowledge and skill that I really admire.
1:11 pm
Vicuna

Haz1558
Those blessed children of Vicuna's!
1:26 pm
Haz1558
Will they never let her stay in babble for longer than 10 minutes?
1:27 pm
Haz1558
Hello there!
1:27 pm
DR1965

1:30 pm
SharonRA
i am missing the e from the second column, want to help me?

Hello Sharon - it's el4 - a mixed up version of the Nazi greeting for Hitler (a babblet)
1:30 pm
DR1965

1:31 pm
Haz1558
You're welcome.
1:32 pm

1:32 pm
DR1965
the 2nd one
1:32 pm
Haz1558
There's an ea6 - heading towards being the most simple but not quite making it.
1:34 pm
Haz1558
Hello Ata!
1:34 pm
Atalante
love your email
1:34 pm
Haz1558
Was your drive home tolerable?
1:35 pm
Atalante
really rather easy for once!
1:35 pm
Haz1558
We don't talk like that ALL the time, honestly!
1:35 pm
Haz1558
Oh, that's good - no major traffic jams or anything and Hobbit behaved?
1:38 pm
Atalante
nope! and luckily she's always an angel in the car
1:39 pm
Haz1558
I'm just reading back in the chat log to see what I missed today.
1:39 pm
Atalante
lol I do as well. with fi4y things
1:40 pm
Haz1558
What do you make of the announcement that Cats Protection have 11 million quid squirrelled away in Iceland?
1:40 pm
Haz1558
Or, had, might be more accurate.
1:40 pm
Kathihle
Good evening, Babblers
1:40 pm
Haz1558
Hello Kathihle.
1:40 pm
Atalante
oh I didn't know the CPL were involved, I've seen things in the news about children's charities
1:41 pm
Atalante
they'll get it back somehow
1:41 pm
Haz1558
They seem to be the biggest losers so far.
1:41 pm
Kathihle
Howyadoin, Haz? And how's this horrible grid going?
1:42 pm
Haz1558
Yes, give us the money or have 50 squillion cats landed on you.
1:42 pm
Atalante
wahhhh :(
1:42 pm
Haz1558
I'm doing fine, Kath - the grid is tameable. Just show it who's boss.
1:43 pm
Kathihle
I ground to a complete halt over the ha5/12 and ha6/21 - last ones ... any clues?
1:43 pm
Atalante
iceland could easily be overrun with cats
1:43 pm
Kathihle
lol @ Haz .. I'm not assertive enough, apparently
1:43 pm
Haz1558
ha5/12 - ha plus a Spanish cheer and then plural.
1:44 pm
Atalante
remember those words
1:44 pm
Haz1558
It's a term of derision in Hawaii for a white man.
1:44 pm
Atalante
and an infamous babblet
1:45 pm
Kathihle
Thanks Haz!! Wow, those are certainly new to me .. but then so are a lot of the words I've thrown in and they've been accepted
1:45 pm
fuquayvarina
ty for ea clue. got pulled away by work
1:45 pm
Haz1558
It's all about creative typing and the opening of the mind to the possibilities of letter combinations.
1:45 pm
Haz1558
Glad you got it, fuquay.
1:46 pm
Kathihle
Haz> Yep, that's pretty much what I end up doing .. trying all sorts of combinations
1:47 pm
Atalante
you'll soon learn the common bablets
1:47 pm
Kathihle
I only have 81 words, better stick my nose back in the grid :)
1:47 pm
Kathihle
Ata> I've already learned a lot of really weird words since beginning to Babble, lol
1:48 pm
Haz1558
Enjoy - and sing out if you need more help.
1:48 pm
Haz1558
I'd never suggest that to Vicuna. (a) she never needs help and (b) not a note in her head.
1:49 pm
Atalante
oh no. singing does not occur around Vi
1:52 pm
Haz1558
I've just reached the part where Stid's mother met up with Liz. That must have been fun to see Liz's face!
1:52 pm
Atalante
oh *yes*!
1:55 pm
Haz1558
And I like that you think I know everything. Smugness factor off the scale!
1:55 pm
Atalante
but you do!! ........ don't you?
1:56 pm
Haz1558
I like to give that impression but it isn't quite the truth. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
1:57 pm
Haz1558
Are you very disappointed?
1:57 pm
Atalante
absolutely. devastated
1:57 pm
Haz1558
Should I divert those counsellors and psychologists?
1:58 pm
Atalante
yes please
1:59 pm
Haz1558
The secret is to only ever comment on things you do know about, but keep quiet when you know you're on shaky ground. That way, nobody can say 'Gosh, what rot!'
1:59 pm
periwinkle
hello all
1:59 pm
Haz1558
Hello peri!
1:59 pm
jillibus
Hello everyone
1:59 pm
periwinkle
cannot see the ha4/8, is it a common word?
2:00 pm
Haz1558
And jillibus - nice to see you both!
2:00 pm
Atalante
loooool. I should stick to that too
2:00 pm
Haz1558
ha4/8 - generous with vowels, sounds like a fraction.
2:00 pm
periwinkle
not liking this grid at all, one of the hardest ever, at least for me
2:00 pm
periwinkle
sheesh, I know that word, too, thanks Haz
2:01 pm
Haz1558
Just remember every babblet you've ever seen and you'll be fine, peri.
2:01 pm
Haz1558
You're welcome.
2:01 pm
Atalante
except etna
2:01 pm
periwinkle
I am always proud of myself when I do recognize a babblet.
2:01 pm
jillibus
oops, message -- brb
2:01 pm
Haz1558
True. And no nene.
2:01 pm
periwinkle
I never seem to see ciao
2:01 pm
Haz1558
Nor haha.
2:02 pm
wildcat17
or brrr
2:02 pm
Haz1558
I was exaggerating when I said every babblet, wasn't I?
2:02 pm
Atalante
nor psst nor pfui. but nearly every single other one
2:02 pm
Haz1558
Neither does LoriP, peri.
2:02 pm
periwinkle
I am having a difficult time with the ha words
2:03 pm
Haz1558
OKay, I'll rephrase what I said.... find lots of babblets.
2:03 pm
MonkeyGames
Hi incredibly briefly. Cia was in yesterday's grid.
2:03 pm
Atalante
including the infamous greek temple
2:03 pm
MonkeyGames
CiaO...
2:05 pm
jillibus
but the Celebes buffalo is here :)
2:05 pm
Atalante
oh yes :D
2:05 pm
MonkeyGames
It is indeed. As in gets underway very quickly (hi4).
2:05 pm
Haz1558
How are you doing, jillibus?
2:07 pm
jillibus
doing fine, thanks, Haz -- but very little time today. Son coming for a visit, hooray -- too short, though.
2:08 pm
Haz1558
Still, it's better than nothing. I suppose you're as busy as ever?
2:08 pm
jillibus
Haz, you have the same icon as Sprite :)
2:08 pm
Haz1558
Do I? I wasn't on earlier when she was.
2:09 pm
MonkeyGames
Someone I know's name is a phantom, I just realized. Irish lady. Her name is Aiofe. Pronounced ee-fa.
2:09 pm
MonkeyGames
Yes, you do.
2:09 pm
periwinkle
last ha5/12 please
2:09 pm
jillibus
oh yes, busy busy -- now have a deadline for the monthly calendars I design for the local Seniors' society
2:09 pm
Haz1558
I always remember my shock when the first pictures of the newly released Mandela were shown. \We were so used to seeing the original picture of him as a young man that it took me by surprise to see an elderly gentleman standing beside PW Botha.
2:09 pm
MonkeyGames
I don't know if it is the last one but the one I have is ha+ spanish cheer
2:10 pm
MonkeyGames
That happened to me too. Haz.
2:10 pm
periwinkle
thanks Monkey, was actually looking for that but just didn't see it :(
2:11 pm
MonkeyGames
Can't take too much credit; I got it from a clue even though it's a Babblet.
2:11 pm
MonkeyGames
You can plural ittoo.
2:11 pm
jillibus
I have only half the Ha words and have to go and get lunch
2:12 pm
Haz1558
Lull those ha words into a false sense of security and surprise them when you come back, all refreshed. Enjoy lunch, jillibus.
2:12 pm
MonkeyGames
Can everyone keep my cat in your thoughts off and on until Wednesday? I know that is a bit trivial in many circles but she's a special cat. We find out what her lump is Wednesday.
2:13 pm
periwinkle
I just watched the movie: Margot at the Wedding with Nicole Kidman. supposed to be a funny movie and got 5 stars according to the cover. Was not impressed.
2:13 pm
periwinkle
Of course I will keep your kitty in my thoughts, Monkey. What is her name
2:13 pm
Atalante
we need a pic of her, mg
2:13 pm
MonkeyGames
SCSI. It came with the cat.
2:13 pm
periwinkle
and it is not trivial, Monkey
2:14 pm
periwinkle
would someone please put me out of my misery and compete the grid for me
2:15 pm
Haz1558
Defeatist talk, peri. You are not one of those spoonfed players!
2:15 pm
MonkeyGames
There are lots if you go to our website and click on pets. Thanks Peri, it's not to me either, but there are plenty of good folks on here with very big problems and I wanted to acknowledge that. Website: www.goldenappledesign.com/blog
2:15 pm
MonkeyGames
No, I give up. Let her do it too. Haven't found a new word in hours of off and on visits. Have 46 to go. It's an hour until my usual bedtime. Not going to sweat it.
2:15 pm
periwinkle
I will plod along with the grid
2:16 pm
Haz1558
That's the spirit, peri. Or give up if you don't feel like completing it yourself. How many to go?
2:16 pm
periwinkle
24 left, Haz and I will not give. I WILL complete the grid.
2:17 pm
MonkeyGames
The vet agreed with myassessment (I have worked for vets). Lump doesn't move when manipulated, is hard, is not particularly painful, and is irregularly shaped. But there is still a chance it's benign. Low, but there.
2:17 pm
Haz1558
You're on the home straight.
2:17 pm
periwinkle
will not give up, is what I meant to say
2:19 pm
periwinkle
how old is your kitty, Monkey?
2:19 pm
Haz1558
I'll help as much as I can, peri.
2:19 pm
Atalante
gorgeous kitty!
2:19 pm
periwinkle
thanks Haz
2:19 pm
MonkeyGames
We think 10. Give or take a year.
2:19 pm
periwinkle
going down the alphabet, in the L words now.
2:19 pm
periwinkle
My cat is 12 and a half
2:19 pm
MonkeyGames
We've had her for 7 years.
2:19 pm
Sam
Hi all... So whatever happened to Lickety?
2:20 pm
MonkeyGames
He's on vacation.
2:20 pm
Haz1558
It depends whose story you believe, Sam.
2:20 pm
MonkeyGames
My former cat lived to be 22 (much of that with my mom after I moved out).
2:20 pm
Atalante
kidnapped by alien dingoes
2:21 pm
Sam
the dingo ate his baby?
2:21 pm
Krysten
eaten by a grasshopper
2:21 pm
Haz1558
Some say he's in an open prison. Alien dingoes feature too often to be just a myth.
2:21 pm
MonkeyGames
She seemed stupid to most people but after many years of thought I think she had no sense of smell.
2:21 pm
MonkeyGames
SCSI is sofetr than any rabbit.
2:21 pm
periwinkle
wow, 22, that is really old for a cat, isn't it
2:21 pm
Atalante
alien dingoes are quite prevalent
2:22 pm
Sam
so sad. alien dingoes ruin your internet connection
2:22 pm
MonkeyGames
I've met them up to 23. But yes, it's like a human reaching 98 like my aunt did.
2:23 pm
periwinkle
I love my cat but not sure I want her to live that long
2:23 pm
Atalante
the oldest cat was 36
2:23 pm
MonkeyGames
WOW!!!!!!
2:23 pm
periwinkle
36? really, Ata?
2:24 pm
periwinkle
I have had Zoe-Anne since she was a baby. Never had a cat this long
2:24 pm
Atalante
apparently so!
2:24 pm
Jacula
Hello everyone. I've just finished the grid and the stats are in my profile for anyone that wants them.
2:25 pm
periwinkle
hi, Jacula
2:25 pm
MonkeyGames
When they get REALLY old they get oddly light. They are like air. You have to be careful petting them if they're standing up. But old, old cats have a certain wisdom I rarely see anywhere else. Sometimes in goats.
2:25 pm
Haz1558
Hello Jacula! Beloved still watching the darts? I hope he's not ordering bling from the shopping channel.....
2:25 pm
sheneigne
hullo all!

2:25 pm
MonkeyGames
Hi there!
2:25 pm
sheneigne
hey that's great...thank you jacula
2:25 pm
Haz1558
I bet he feels naked compared to all those darts players.
2:26 pm
Haz1558
Never trust a man who wears more jewellery than you do.
2:26 pm
Jacula
We're about to watch TV together.
2:27 pm
MonkeyGames
I'm doing that right now, Jac!
2:27 pm
Jacula
Haz - he's not really one for 'bling' but I know what you mean about the darts players.
2:27 pm
Haz1558
They wouldn't be high on my list of desirable men.
2:27 pm
Jacula
Nor mine, Haz.
2:28 pm
Haz1558
And have you seen the crowds? They're the ones who haven't got onto the Jeremy Kyle show.
2:28 pm
Jacula
Must be off now. Hav e a good evening all of you.
2:28 pm
Haz1558
My inner snob is showing.
2:28 pm
Haz1558
Have a good evening, Jacula!
2:29 pm

How many DNA tests did they fit in?

Good going! Any lie detectors?
2:32 pm

2:32 pm
Haz1558
Hello cross!
2:33 pm
Atalante
nooooo just domestic violence and swearing and security and and and
2:33 pm
Haz1558
And shouting over each other and never listening to anybody?
2:34 pm
Atalante
hi mr hair!
2:34 pm
Atalante
one would think you've watched it by your suspiciously accurate description!
2:35 pm
Haz1558
Hand on heart, I've never watched a full show. I've seen five minutes here and there and concluded that it's not my idea of entertainment.
2:36 pm
jillibus
I've just been going through Monkey's blog -- what a treat!
2:36 pm
Haz1558
If anything, it's blatant manipulation of people who are too caught up with the idea of being on TV to realise that their problems should remain private.
2:36 pm
Atalante
I only ever watch it at sister's cos she loves it. It's cringeworthy!
2:37 pm
Atalante
yes, that's what I don't like
2:37 pm
KnightTime
haz, what is a navel hero?
2:38 pm
Haz1558
Dear goodness, let me check.
2:38 pm

what happened to babble clues?

Monkey -- if you're there -- I do understand about your cat, having lost my nearly-19-yr-old in May

Lickety is on holiday for 2 weeks -- back next week. There are clues in BabAnon

west nile virus too
2:50 pm
Haz1558
West Nile Virus has a lot to answer for.
2:50 pm
Atalante
it really does
2:51 pm
Haz1558
Could we blame it for Peter Mandelson coming back?
2:52 pm
Haz1558
Maybe Gordon Brown, weakened by West Nile Virus, made the 'courageous' decision to restore Mandy to public life.
2:52 pm
KnightTime
those words on the list are entertaining. thanks for providing the link
2:52 pm

2:55 pm
Haz1558
Don't you enjoy spending more time than usual with us, cross?
2:56 pm
crosshair
but of course,the delightfull wit and chatting of events,important and trivial more than make up for the endless hors of banging my head against some evil grid;))
2:56 pm
Vicuna
(He's not answering, Haz. Be offended.)
2:56 pm
Haz1558
(This is his chance to prove how diplomatic he can be)
2:56 pm
Vicuna
(Oh, oops, he did answer. Don't be offended after all.)
2:56 pm
crosshair
im slo typer vic..hunt and peck
2:56 pm
Vicuna
(Or, if you must, find something else at which to take offense.)
2:57 pm
Haz1558
Well said, cross. But when have we ever discussed trivial matters?
2:57 pm
Vicuna
Well, you beat me to it, cross, so I'm evidently slower!
2:57 pm
Vicuna
Good one, Haz. Be offended at his implications of triviality!
2:58 pm
crosshair
i was talking bout my mouse battery phobia making my right hand sweat....
2:58 pm
Haz1558
(The diplomacy test gets harder)
2:58 pm
crosshair
vic im offended at your offense of wanting other to be offended..its offensive;)
2:58 pm
Vicuna
I always did play offense.
2:58 pm
Haz1558
Again, well done, cross. Take all the blame yourself.
2:58 pm
Atalante

2:59 pm

I was a fast runner. It helps if you're going to be offensive.
3:00 pm

i don't hava a fear of shoe lace tips, but it disturbs me when the color of the tip is slightly different than the color of the lac
3:03 pm
crosshair
but whats really a pain is this new flickr account! crossy foams at the mouth
3:04 pm
Vicuna
lol. Better stick with velcro shoes just to be on the safe side, KnightTime!
3:04 pm
KnightTime
good suggestion vicuna, i am wearing crocs for that very reason
3:04 pm
crosshair
the tip colour differential is so that people like me dont take six hours frantically grping for the end of the shoeleace
3:04 pm
Atalante
flickr is looovely
3:05 pm
KnightTime
good point crossy, that makes it easier for me to accept
3:05 pm
Vicuna
Velcro for you, too, then cross!

not yet..go ahead
3:08 pm

I think it's been an hour or two, Haz. Are we due for another round of cinching?
3:08 pm

not for a few hours
3:08 pm

mine is killing me
3:09 pm

lol knight too much www.tightlacing.com im thinking....
3:09 pm

That's because it's not supposed to go around your neck, KnightTime.
3:09 pm
DR1965
yes, it has been about an hour
3:09 pm
Haz1558
It's just a subject that seems to occur now and again. I don't know why.
3:09 pm
KnightTime
that's better that the other place i was told to put it
3:10 pm
crosshair
my question is who ties the final bow in the back if your single and alone?
3:10 pm
Atalante
you tie it yourself behind your back!
3:10 pm
DR1965
takes practice
3:11 pm
crosshair
contortionists:/
3:11 pm
Vicuna
No one wears a corset properly without a personal maid.
3:11 pm
Atalante
it's easy!
3:11 pm
Haz1558
Not really. Women are skilled at doing things behind their back to secure underpinnings etc.
3:11 pm
Vicuna
If you can tie it yourself, it isn't a corset. Just a glorified cummerbund.
3:12 pm
DR1965
tht is what I was thinking Vic- Corsets are supposed to be tight arent they
3:12 pm
crosshair
thought we WERE talking bout corsets...
3:12 pm
Vicuna
You need to be holding onto the back of the chair while the maid puts her knee in the small of your back.
3:13 pm
Atalante
you can still tie them! even if you bring the laces back round to the front to tie :P
3:13 pm
Haz1558
Did personal maids spend all their spare time at the gym getting enough muscle power for the corset lacing?
3:13 pm
Pinikula
lunch time!
3:13 pm
Vicuna
Personal maids didn't have spare time... except one half day a month.
3:14 pm
crosshair
the maids coud get even by going too tight and cutting and searing the ends:)
3:14 pm
Haz1558
Maybe they just had to build up their strength themselves then.
3:15 pm
Vicuna
Or by making the aglets unmatching just to irritate!
3:15 pm
Kazzer99
evening all, maids is interesting but does anyone one have the ha 5/18 please
3:15 pm
Kazzer99
not the doulbe vowel one
3:15 pm
Vicuna
ha5/18 - pl of ha4/8, which has an improbable double vowel and is worth 8 points.
3:16 pm
Vicuna
Oh. I take it all back.
3:16 pm
Haz1558
ha5/18 - either a plural for ha4/8 or ha plus the beginning of the swimming creature.
3:16 pm
Haz1558
And we're not talking mermaids
3:17 pm
Vicuna
Although it is somewhat mermaid-like in incorporating half a fi4.
3:17 pm
Kazzer99
ta haz and going back to maids - didnt the victorians invent some sort of winding device to pull the corsets really tight
3:17 pm
crosshair
crossy checks his fishing liscence,and notes that it does not have the mermaid exemption
3:17 pm
Haz1558
I don't suppose mermaids were much use at lacing corsets either.
3:17 pm
Kazzer99
and they made themout of whalebone
3:17 pm
Haz1558
They probably did, Kazzer. It would make sense.
3:18 pm
Vicuna
Hard to put a knee in the small of someone's back when all you've got is a tail.
3:18 pm
crosshair
no kazz,they used a instrument much like what hockey players use to tighten skate laces
3:18 pm
Haz1558
You make a good point, Vicuna. Mermaids would have been at a disadvantage in the personal maids job seeking situation.
3:19 pm
Kazzer99
whats the icon today please
3:19 pm
Atalante
maybe their tails were particularly strong
3:19 pm
Vicuna
Friday icon clues day.
3:19 pm

Take a word from the grid and make it an icon.
3:20 pm
Atalante
check my flickr for a very silly Sily cat :)

Oh definitely, Ata. But if your tails on the mistress's back it leaves you nothing to stand on.

Cute pics, Ata. I like the one with the tongue hanging out - more silly than Sily.
3:21 pm
Haz1558
I don't think so. Unless they've got some sort of frame to help keep them upright.
3:21 pm

I'm getting my puppy next week; trying to get the house ready for our pickup....breeder recommends "Canidae" brand food - does it matter what kind of food I buy (may be a dumb question, feell free to educate me!)....
9:31 pm
pugmama763
ty needed that too
9:31 pm
stidmama
Ls grey! left side is in the shade!!!!
9:31 pm

I'm getting a glorified, expensive, mutt - I think you may remember the chat...it's a goldendoodle/labradoodle mix ... a mini, so it'll grow to be 25lbs
9:32 pm
pugmama763
if the breeder is happy with it it's probably good but be sure it fits your budget as well
9:32 pm
Pinikula
add vowel to AN before
9:33 pm
Pinikula
nice, As....if you change brands, make sure you do so gradually...
9:33 pm
harpjane
well, could you clue the an4 then?
9:33 pm
AsGreen
the breeder does "real" food ... I'm not going that route
9:33 pm
pugmama763
and that its' readily available as swapping brands frequently is hard on the dogs system
9:33 pm
Pinikula
oh...might help, huh, harp?
9:33 pm
harpjane
i hate to ask for 4 letter clues but there you go!
9:33 pm

9:35 pm
pugmama763
if you belong to a Sams club the exceed lamb & rice is quite good & not horribly expensive
9:35 pm
stidmama
we use the dick van patton food for lucky, his allergies make most of the cheaper foods a bad choice.

9:38 pm
stidmama
she'll be fine, As. just don't switch foods suddenly, and watch for allergic symptoms when you introduce new things. lucky has seizures when he gets beef... and started itching on the venison recently (now on duck and sweet potato until he calms down)
9:38 pm
AsGreen
exactly.... I feel so out of my element.... just like I felt exactly 10 years ago (just months before my twins were born)
9:38 pm

9:39 pm

9:39 pm
stidmama

9:39 pm
stidmama

9:40 pm
Pinikula
I don't recommend rawhide!!!
9:41 pm
stidmama
but save your sanity AS, and DON'T get squeaky toys.... remember when the kids were little and played with their toys incessantly????
9:41 pm
Pinikula
Hey, I have a squeaky toy...but it's mostly for outside play "ball fetch"
9:41 pm
stidmama
and the other bit is check the toys frequently for breakage and remove immediately anything with rips, breaks or chunks...
9:41 pm
pugmama763
hooves have none of the draw backs / dangers of rawhide last much longer & more bang for the buck
9:41 pm
AsGreen
OK slow down! lol ... I'm off to watch grey's while I still have MY time!! yes, I bought ONE squeaky toy, and told the kids THAT's IT!!
9:41 pm
stidmama
pini, I am confused by the clue for the ne 6
9:42 pm
stidmama
the only ne 6 name I know is newman...
9:42 pm
Pinikula
Oh, and if you play tug-o-war...make sure YOU win; if you need to, ease off and let go, but don't let her pull it from you
