2:08 am
sprite

woot Andree, sounds good. And what did you need therapy for, if it is ok to ask?
2:08 am
mrpresident

LOL !!
2:08 am
mrpresident

retail therapy is a woman's thing
2:08 am
Andree

dj's have 30% off new shoe stock and country road $100 off if you spend $300
2:09 am
lynxxx

Wow, not bad AndreeA!
2:09 am
Andree

ha ha sprite, nothing in particular and everything in general
2:09 am
sprite

so it is not really comfort buying spree, but just simply needing to spend some money on women's things?
2:10 am
mrpresident

not just women's things... but things we just don't need!
2:10 am
sprite

thanks for explaining :D I love the expression.
2:10 am
lynxxx

lol
2:11 am
Andree

because of my shoe size, if i don't get what i want at beg. of season i have to go without, have been after a pair of brown boots for 2 years
2:11 am
mrpresident

whenever lickety pisses me off... I spend his money! That is 'retail therapy'... I don't 'need' to spend it, but it helps
2:12 am
sprite

so that is even better, Andree. Congrats on the good find!

MrP... so that would be... once a day? ;)
2:12 am
Andree

lol mrp, i certainly didn't need them , my daughter says she thinks i'm a centipede
2:12 am
mrpresident

LOL andree!!!
2:12 am
sprite

centipedes need all the boots they can find
2:13 am
lynxxx

the mi8 matches the retail therapy!
2:13 am
Andree

one of the great pleasures for me of shopping is not having anyone to answer to about what i spend
2:13 am
mrpresident

oh believe me andree! when lickety pisses me off... he doesn't ask questions about my spending! LOL

4:08 am

4:29 am

what's caster sugar?
4:30 am
ardilla

bottom row greyed
4:30 am
Rlee

is finer than white sugar
4:30 am
ardilla

wow, so sad :(
4:30 am
Rlee

not sure of your equivelant
4:30 am
mrpresident

fine sugar..
4:30 am
mrpresident

used for cooking
4:30 am
ardilla

is it powdered sugar?
4:31 am
Rlee

pretty close
4:31 am
mrpresident

it is sad... we are so perplexed and can't comprehend it still
4:31 am
mrpresident

not powdered... like icing sugar, but sugar... very small granules
4:31 am
lynxxx

Apparently known as berry sugar in the States
4:32 am
mrpresident

I would love raw caster sugar
4:32 am
mrpresident

brown sugar is likened in texture to caster sugar
4:32 am
ardilla

hmmm...will have to look for it...interested in making the cupcakes on rlee's profile
4:32 am
mrpresident

but it is more moist
4:32 am
mrpresident

very important to use caster sugar for cupcakes
4:33 am
Rlee

it makes them lighter, normal white sugar makes them heavy
4:33 am
mrpresident

I make a mean cupcake! sell them for 10c in canteen! the kids love them!

5:00 am
Frances

How is the new kitten. Settled in well?
5:00 am
herinfernallady

Dang. One of my friends is alerigic to my kitty.
5:00 am
herinfernallady

Kitties are playing together now. She still gets crabby if he 'lord forbid' sleeps on her bed
5:01 am
Frances

Animals are very territorial.
5:01 am
herinfernallady

Yes they are he also is incredibly annoying lots of in your face kitty stuff to her.
5:03 am
Frances

He just wants to play. After all he is a baby and she is probably acting (or trying) all grown up.
5:03 am
herinfernallady

5:12 am
westford

you couldn't have a bath and leave them alone?
5:12 am
herinfernallady

No himself is not good with heights and I just couldn't be bothered waiting to get home. As we share water with the neighbour its a hassle to turn off water at night when they get home.
5:13 am
herinfernallady

Not that West the washers were perished and the tap couldn't turn on
5:13 am
Frances

You're very good and considerate too.

But come spring, croci popped out in her garden, spelling out "I Love You" - he had planted them in the fall, before he died, thinking to surprise her in the spring. How lovely!!!

True, Ata. We have twisted that one around.

8:16 am
Atalante

8:17 am
Trifioso

no,not at all! it had been badly burned, and it responded beautifully to the man, putting it's little paw out, and accepting water from him
8:17 am
mrpresident

8:32 am

it was about their marriage i guess. my hebrew isnt so good. they are both approaching 90. they dated as young people, and miriam decided not to marry arieh. she married Zvi, my cousin. then she was widowed and married arieh. i think that was what it was about. i did understand that they asked why didnt you marry arieh the first time. of course we family all know the answer but she just said "because". and left it at that.

11:30 am
Krista

i am in that mode, too, nrkii..no room in the cabinets..told everyone meals may be a bit interesting for the next few weeks
11:30 am
nrkii

this all started because a few months ago I bought two pot roasts in a buy-one-get-one sale... then had trouble fitting them in my freezer with the previous two roasts I had bought in a similar sale months before
11:30 am
nrkii

then I went to bake cookies and realized my 3 mixes were all expired
11:30 am
zoozzoom

11:31 am
72 Temple Owl

how can oil expire?
11:31 am
Krista

hee hee..nothing too scary, zoom, just strange combinations
11:31 am
nrkii

if you don't use oil, it turns
11:31 am
zoozzoom

wow you must of had the oil for some time for it to be expired
11:31 am
nrkii

I would guess I had the oil for 4+ years
11:32 am
72 Temple Owl

oh then it was open...yes i have had that happen because i use it infrequently
11:32 am
Krista

telll me about it, nrkii..i joined a few co-ops and was so excited about all the wonderful bargains that I overbought..i have four quarts of pesto..come on, who uses pesto by the quart?

11:34 am
nrkii

it was good Krista... had spinach and pesto in it... though I prefer meatloaf on the sweet, not savory side
11:34 am
72 Temple Owl

no really a savory cupcake/muffin? no possibility?
11:34 am
Krista

nope, i throw those out, TO
11:34 am

i'll have a look for that later, Birdee..what's it about?
11:46 am

reading, movies, etc, yes, but those make me feel more guilty than Babble does... isn't that odd?
11:47 am

no, i get it..Babble involves some work..the others feel indulgent
11:48 am

you will be back to the grind before you know it, so try to enjoy it!

I just looked at another one - it is an engineer or something in the Netherlands who builds these amazing kinetic sculptures and are wind pwered and move along the beach or on other flat spaces. It is amazing because of the quality of the movement and the artistic animal-like shapes. I just looked at another one that is an excerpt from a BMW commercial in South Africa so he must be well-known. This student's father is a sculptor

it's okay zoom -- was reminded last night at the class potluck how tricky it is for me to go places. I can't eat much of the "normal" food, so stick close to home.

wales first then, and then scotland. Wet I can handle. Cold... not so much.

I think we're going to Ireland and Scotland next trip across the pond. I'm going to hire a driver--anyone want to apply? We like to get off the beaten track but found out it is all beaten track in England. What about Scotland and Ireland.
5:40 pm

wales are cold, Whales are wet... ales are... wet and room temp?

5:41 pm

watched the Highlander movie with the younger stidkid the other day. it was really funny. sean connery pretending to be egyptian/spanish saying "haggis, what is haggis?" with his usual accent...
5:42 pm
stidgmere

Atalante, you may have yourself a deal! No the haggis requires too much plugging into outlets for power. It is preferred to get a small Vaugard or something like that.

how's the road situation now? are you still using your chains?
5:43 pm

it was. fun though!
5:43 pm
Atalante

we;re fine down here, we haven't had snow for a week now. Saying that it started again about 3 hours ago ...
5:44 pm
stidgmere

We will need more than 3 days. But, still I'm putting your name on the short list for drivers. We have no idea when exactly we might go but we like to learn some of the language. I know it is impossible to learn Scottish but maybe the Irish will be possible.
5:44 pm
stidmama

we still have a bit on the ground where we are, though most of the roads are passable again. I guess Mother's road is still pretty slick.
5:44 pm
stidgmere

Couldn't get my car out of the driveway this morning. Slick is the name of the game here.
5:45 pm
Atalante

more than 3 days is definitely a good idea!
5:45 pm

good thing you're retired, eh?
5:45 pm

how's hobbit doing with all the snow?
5:46 pm
Atalante

she loves it :)
5:46 pm

Lucky is miserable. He slips in the snow and it makes the ground all muddy underneath.
5:47 pm
Atalante

awwwwww
5:47 pm
stidmama

excellent! Brandy (my chesapeake bay retriever/lab when I was growing up) loved snow. and wet. and dirt. and really really dead animals.... she used to love hunting for snowballs!
5:47 pm
stidmama

I miss her. it's only been 23 years she's been gone.
5:48 pm
Atalante

the only problem with spaniels and snow is that they get snow bobbles all over their long fur, and it takes *hours* to get them back to normal
5:48 pm
Atalante

awwwww :(
5:48 pm
stidmama

true, spaniels are a bit more upkeep than labs and german shepherds
5:49 pm
stidmama

Brandy also used to go down to the beach at my folks' house and retrieve the rocks from under the water. Can't imagine how she got those ear infections! LOL

oh what does it say now grigs?

"Welcome to Oregon"
9:52 pm

ahh, not thanks for visiting now go home!

We had fruit police at the california border, too. you had to pull your car over and they'd make sure you didn't contaminate up their state with your northern fruit flies

Hi folks. I watched a series about Stephen Fry visiting every state in the uSA. I was amazed at the USA patrol on the border with Canada.

LOL Jacula, yes, there is that.

(brutal, miserable, gouging hateful state income tax)
9:56 pm
Jacula

dcs - because they're two friendly countries. I also saw the border stuff twixt Mexico and USA but I sort of understood that.
9:56 pm
dcseain

how works that tax?
9:56 pm
grigs

just like the fed tax.
9:56 pm
dcseain

i work for Customs, and the Mexican border is a whole other world from the Canadian one.
9:56 pm
dcseain

we have similar, yet quite separate, policies on the two frontiers
9:56 pm
grigs

except with much lower deductions. so that basically if you get $200 back from the feds, you get $5 from the state.
9:57 pm
Jacula

dcs - what are the policies?
9:57 pm
kierlex

well i guess i will go play referee for the child battle. AGHGH they drive me insane.
9:57 pm
dcseain

our state tax is very, very low, so i don't mind paying. i think i owed 3200 last year, and got 62 back. withholding targeted at the actual tax is a good thing
9:57 pm
jmcnrick

have fun kier
9:57 pm
jmcnrick

I mind paying and not getting a vote
9:58 pm

good luck with that, kier. remember there's a penalty for roughing the ref

DC Statehood now!
9:58 pm
grigs

oh, what do you people want, dc, we gave you guns... :)
9:58 pm
dcseain

well, Canada is a visa waiver country. Mexicans need visas.
9:58 pm
Jacula

I was thinking of my uncle, who lived on Vancouver Island before moving to Oshawa, Ont. to retire because Portland sounded very like it.
9:58 pm

trusted travellers on the MX border must register their cars and have them inspected now and again. Any car may cross from CA to US
9:59 pm
Jacula

dcs - I see. Thanks for explaining that.
9:59 pm
dcseain

i lived in DC, and did not support statehood, and still do not. It should be merged with MD or VA.
9:59 pm
Jacula

Only Mexican I know is from Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid, 'esto est un robo!' LOL
9:59 pm
dcseain

theres' more to it, but that's a general overview, jac :)
9:59 pm

we have our own separate history and should not be merged
9:59 pm
dcseain

LOL jac
10:00 pm
jmcnrick

*putting soap box away*
10:00 pm
dcseain

1/3 of DC was ceded back to VA, no reason the remaining 2/3 shouldn't be ceded back to MD, but i do see your point, jmc. :)
10:01 pm
Jacula

jmc - I understand your anti-merge stance. It's a bit like us in UK not wanting to be part of the big Europe machine.
10:01 pm
jmcnrick

maybe VA should give it back lol
10:01 pm
dcseain

Arlington would not be opposed, Alexandria i doubt would agree

Or rather, the big Brussels machine.
10:02 pm

10:02 pm
dcseain

Arlington is the only subdivision of VA that cannot have it's borders changed, due to having been part of the Federal District.
10:02 pm
grigs

jmc - i totally get you. my sister in law lived in dc for years; it's its own separate place. Although I'm not sure about statehood. The point was to have a place that didn't have self-interest in voting
10:02 pm
Jacula

ig and plural is an alternative way of spelling an ice house for Inuits.
10:02 pm

ig= alternate spelling of where eskimos live

10:03 pm
dcseain

i think the worries of the founders of state interference are today unwaranted, esp with all the fed meddling in local MD and VA issues
10:04 pm
jmcnrick

I think what gauls me the most is the congress vetoing our laws
10:04 pm
grigs

that's probably a fair assessment, but it's still a concern. maybe if we could just get the courts to stop crapping on dc'ers because they read the word "state" too narrowly
10:04 pm
dcseain

YES, jmc! that infuriated me when i lived in DC, and it still does.
10:04 pm
grigs

I mean, you *know* Scalia has a dictionary from *some* year with a definition of state that is "any general tribal assembly on land" or something like that
10:05 pm
jmcnrick

some of the US specifically defines DC as a state for the purposes of that statute
10:06 pm
grigs

point is, they shouldn't have to redefine DC as a state.
10:06 pm
Jacula

Can't contribute to this discussion, since I don't live in DC. I'm available for clue giving for a while, if needed.
10:06 pm
dcseain

indeed, so, DC is treated as a state-equivalent, not least so by the feds. So it should either be a state or a self-governing territory
10:06 pm

no, he just walks across my chest, and is now 'playing the cello'

Does that mean he's twanging your chest hairs? LOL

'playing the cello' refers to a particular bathing pose :)

I said Hi Jac before
10:29 pm

Gin is fine to drink but beware of mixing it with tonic if you drink it every night. Tonic, like bitter lemon has quinine in it and it can knacker your adrenal glands.

Oh my Jac...not sure what to say about that...
10:42 pm
Jacula

car - you don't have to say anything. She was just a character from my childhood.
10:42 pm

But that is horrible...in so many ways.
10:43 pm
Jacula

The hair was bleached, the eyebrows were badly drawn in in brown eye pencil, the lipstick was too red, but she'd survived being in Bergen-Belsen. That's all that really needs to be said really.
10:43 pm

when is the time change there this year, jac?
10:44 pm
Jacula

dcs - erm - I'd have to check my calendar in the kitchen. Not for a while yet, though.
10:45 pm
dcseain

cool, jac, thx. i'll look it up :)
10:45 pm
Jacula

I'm not sure 40-20 and under really understand how close WWII still was in the childhood worlds of those of us in our 50s now.
10:46 pm
dcseain

ah, 8 Mar both sides of pond this year
10:46 pm
Jacula

The bombed buildings with fireweed growing all around were still there, The major rebuilding in UK only began in the 60s.
10:48 pm
dcseain

my friends mom, who grew up in Leicester, told us about how the war damage was still there into her teens, jac. were it not for her, and her mother, we here would have no clue.
10:48 pm
dcseain

friend's , oopsie
10:49 pm
Jacula

I'm not alone amongst my school friends about still being totally freaked out and somewhat non-plussed and angry about that war. We still cannot understand why the Jewish people were picked out as undesirables, along with the elderlym, the infirm, the non compos mentis etc.
10:50 pm
Jacula

With the pc stuff and grren stuff and 'keep yourself fit and slim' stuff going on in UK today, we fear a return to that mad mentality again someday.

intesting that fear due to that, jac. here, we worry due to what we saw in the last 8 years, MUCH too much like Germany back when for comfort :/

10:54 pm

dcs - re the war damage 20+ years after. We'd been rebuilding Germany. Our country came second to that.
10:54 pm

10:55 pm

jac, i never imagined that what the UK spent in Germany came at that large a cost on the home front, but it makes sense now that i think about it.
10:55 pm

is that like that cult in texas DC?
10:56 pm

10:56 pm

oh, BTW, if in DC area, the original Emancipation Proclamation is on display at the Archives right now and through next week.

10:58 pm
Jacula

Thank God for that, Ishult. What's happening now? Do you know?
10:58 pm
dcseain

indeed so, jacula. living here, we forget sometimes how it is, was, and may yet be elsewhere.
10:58 pm
dcseain

may yet be here, for that matter
10:59 pm
lshult

not too much, still rockets landing here & there though!!! but not down in the south where I live, always quiet here
11:00 pm
Jacula

Why do men choose to find a war to fight against other men... constantly and eternally? Is that God's punishment to him for indulging in Eve's 'apple'?
11:01 pm
rururocks

uh.. jac.. women are involved too...
11:01 pm
dcseain

would that we knew, that we could excise that tendency
11:01 pm
Jacula

If we are just a million billion ants in a bell jar experiment, I don't think it's very funny.
11:02 pm
bazza01

First Mi6,24?
11:03 pm
rururocks

old spelling of woman of an english kjnight
11:03 pm
Jacula

ruru - women only get involved in war because of men, wether it be their father's influence, brother's, husband's etc. Back to the start, women give birth, provide food, and run things, but let the men think they thought of it in the first place.
11:04 pm
rururocks

wow.. that is a really sexist statement..
11:04 pm
Jacula

mi6/24 is what Parker in Thunderbirds called Lady Penelope.

Except that he put the sometimes vowel at the end of it and this word does not. It was obvously put into the dictionary by someone from the 80s who was a product of what was it called, pronounced/recieved spelling??
11:07 pm
dcseain

gl5, pls?
11:08 pm
Jacula

I tend not to pray 'cos God's often very busy concealing his footprints in the sand when he's getting out of puff carrying people, and I wouldn't want to drive the poor man to a heart attack.
11:08 pm

I put ben gay on my legs after shaving once (after a 2 day hike--- really needed the shave AND the ben gay) and it was an adventure in pain!
11:18 pm
rururocks

well.. having never shaved my legs I would have to take your word for it
11:18 pm
o2baflyndog

you definitely should
11:18 pm
Jacula

Oh yea? Well try sprayiing one of those new 'skin plasters' onto a new cut. If you thought iodine applied to a cut hurt, try this!
11:19 pm
o2baflyndog

aren't those supposed to be painless?
11:19 pm
Jacula

Yes, they are, but they are NOT.
11:23 pm
Jacula

U saw my Mum's reaction earlier when she bought and sprayed on her cut by a corned beef tin the night before thumb end.
11:23 pm
Jacula

I saw , I meant.
11:24 pm
o2baflyndog

lol, jac, that was hard to follow
11:24 pm
Jacula

My Mum's never been one for sceaming...
11:24 pm
Jacula

or screaming either.
11:25 pm
o2baflyndog

that's a good trait in a mom
11:26 pm
Jacula

Well, she did scream very very loud when she found a spider in the pantry. I had to be not scared of them to rescue her. The phobia has now passed on to my daughter, who is even more frightened of them than my Mum is.
11:27 pm
Jacula

I have to rescue both of them at times, and they're not fooled if the spider escapes and you just pretend you found it. Poor spiders!
11:28 pm
o2baflyndog

poor spiders indeed. I tell them it's ok to be here as long as my husband doesn't catch them, so they mostly hide, which is fine with me.
11:28 pm
Pinikula

ok...the 2nd dog is gone and Koda is calm again...15 left to find...can it be done?
11:28 pm
Jacula

I prefer to leave the spiders to their own devices in my house; they keep the flies down in summer.
11:29 pm
o2baflyndog

wow pinik, good luck... I am struggling with 56 left to go!

My e-hub was amusin. He was a body builder but couldn't go into the bath or shower if there was a spider in there. But he never admitted his fear. He'd say he had 'a call to make' and 'coud I sort the bathroom out for him?'/ LOL
