Oh, THAT figures......

12:28 am

pugmama763

yeah right?

12:30 am

pugmama763

so now she owes me 43$ instead of the original 25

12:31 am

MetFan

She'd better get her act together about that - what was her excuse?

12:31 am

pugmama763

some non specific crap about her bank

12:32 am

pugmama763

really dont care my old bank f***ed me too just want my $

12:32 am

MetFan

So is your bank gonna hit you with a fee for HER bounced check? She owes you for THAT, too.

12:32 am

pugmama763

of course she had just told me a week b4 she only occassionaly bother to balance her check book

12:33 am

crosshair

a bounced cheque here is $35.00 now;(

12:33 am

pugmama763

thats why its now 43 instead of the original 25

12:34 am

MetFan

I never balance mine, but thru telephone banking, and careful monitoring of my ATM receipts, I haven't bounced a check in years!!!!

12:34 am

pugmama763

I told her only cash or $ orders from now on

12:34 am

MetFan

It just takes a minimum of effort.

12:34 am

crosshair

i use atm slips as well metfan

12:35 am

MetFan

Well that's good - now don't hold your breath for your money.

12:35 am

pugmama763

she had also said at that time the week b4 "I buy $ orders because when I use checks I tend to overdraw my acct."

12:36 am

pugmama763

she's turning 31 this month ! GROW UP!

12:42 am

VolleymomDee

I am finding thou I have to be reallly careful with wines now... developing an allergy to some sulfites

12:43 am

melonheadjujube

it's the re 6/21 7/32 before that, right after the 8

12:43 am

rururocks

if you can take benedryl before drinking dee that will help fight the sulfites

12:43 am

VolleymomDee

that is exactly what I did :)

12:44 am

VolleymomDee

we used to be able to get sulfite free wines from Lynnfred Winery in Chicao, but now they all seem to have them

12:44 am

MetFan

But beware if you're allergic to citric acid - it's in Benadryl as a preservative

12:44 am

VolleymomDee

aww good to know met

12:44 am

MetFan

I was taking something for allergy which was contributing to my allergy!!!

12:44 am

I am highly allergic to msg

12:48 am

sometimes it pays to just start typing. . .

12:48 am

Ms. Pug saw me at my worst - couldn't sleep at nite during a visit because everything ITCHED!!!!

12:48 am

VolleymomDee

have gotten so, too ru

12:48 am

Wow, ruru - do you ever eat Chinese food?

12:48 am

pugmama763

12:49 am

rururocks

12:49 am

MetFan

That bites, ruru

12:50 am

VolleymomDee

now campbells is taking it out of their soups again; had to buy expensive organic ones for a long time

12:51 am

MetFan

It's a good thing that big corps are going more "natural and healthy", but I don't quite trust them anyway

12:51 am

VolleymomDee

more people are allergic to msg than any other ingredient, but grocers wanted extended shelflife; fortunately folks not buying some products has helped

12:51 am

rururocks

I agree

12:51 am

VolleymomDee

agree with that

12:52 am

jillibus

hi -- late flip

12:52 am

MetFan

Yes, but no MSG means more salt in some cases - fortunately, there's sea salt

12:52 am

rururocks

(from a guy who used to make twinkies for a living)..lol

12:52 am

rururocks

Hi jilli@@

12:52 am

jillibus

salt is salt is salt -- NaCl

12:52 am

lynxxx

hi Jilli

12:53 am

VolleymomDee

ditto jili; what my allergist says, too

12:53 am

VolleymomDee

ex 6/36 new word for me

12:53 am

rururocks

I don't agree jilli

12:53 am

MetFan

Sea salt supposedly has less sodium in it, or so "they" say....

12:53 am

flosey

hi Jilli

12:53 am

jillibus

first word found, yi4 insult :(

12:54 am

melonheadjujube

135 down and NBT - I need cu7 & ae7 to have all the biggies and go to bed. Should i know these two words?

12:54 am

jillibus

nonsense, metfan

12:54 am

pugmama763

it seems to give more taste with a lot less

12:55 am

jillibus

it may contain other taste-enhancing ingredients

12:55 am

MetFan

Just much better to use more pepper and other spices for flavor.

12:56 am

melonheadjujube

I'll pipe in - if you cut back salt gradually, you're less apt to miss the taste. The old standby lemon juice works if you can use it (I haven't been following the caht).

12:56 am

jillibus

right, melon :)

12:56 am

melonheadjujube

one more time anyone have the ae7 & cu7?

12:56 am

VolleymomDee

not yet melon... looking

12:56 am

MetFan

I rarely use the salt shaker, just use more pepper or Mrs. Dash

12:57 am

jillibus

not me, melon, I just got here ;)

12:57 am

MetFan

Sorry, melon

12:57 am

melonheadjujube

12:58 am

jillibus

I'm addicted to V8 at lunchtime -- switched to the les sodium variety and at fist thought ugh, but now love it.

12:58 am

melonheadjujube

ginger is my new garlic. Corainder seed is my latest spice "regular" too.

12:58 am

jillibus

Yes, flosey, but it's a cutie!

("they" are nuts jilli)

1:19 am

VolleymomDee

1:20 am

VolleymomDee

pb pb pb crap

1:21 am

Andree

how funny, hugo's favourite is a pink pig he pinched from my grandaughter, he loves that toy

1:21 am

rururocks

There is a theme to the litter and I have to abide by the breeders request pini

1:21 am

VolleymomDee

ty for explanation... didn't realize that

1:21 am

Pinikula

gotcha ... not sure the breeder could have made it any harder!!! ;)

1:21 am

rururocks

The father would shove his head in the toy box and throws toys out of it until he found it

1:22 am

jillibus

ruru, can you choose the reg name or does the breeder claim that?

1:22 am

pugmama763

my boys had a laundry basket of toys & bones & would climb in to excavate for the desired thing

1:22 am

jillibus

does it have to start with P?

1:22 am

rururocks

I can choose the regular name.. dylan is what I have decided on

1:22 am

rururocks

no

1:23 am

jillibus

I meant the registered name -- I know about Dylan ;)

1:23 am

rururocks

no it doesn't jilli.. has to relate to pink or pig

1:23 am

MetFan

Chino's favorite is his little blue cow

1:24 am

rururocks

and pink isn't very masculine for a dog

1:24 am

Christine

Any clues/hints for the u would be soooooo appreciated.

1:24 am

Pinikula

"Rosey Sows Little D"

1:24 am

rururocks

1:26 am

Christine

Pink is too masculine - there's a men's group called strong (brave?) enough to wear pink - they support breast cancer causes.

1:26 am

rururocks

oh that's good jilli

1:26 am

pugmama763

I love when theres no toy handy to greet with so he settles for a slipper or sneaker

1:26 am

Pinikula

3:33 am

Brookie

Hello everyone!

3:34 am

rubyfoo

gd morning everybody

3:34 am

Arisha

evening Brookie

3:34 am

Brookie

Hi ruby, hi arisha!

3:47 am

herinfernallady

Hello again

3:47 am

Brookie

hi herin!

3:48 am

herinfernallady

How are you?

3:49 am

Brookie

Loving life, seriously. I feel like I'm finally in a happy place. How are you doing?

3:50 am

herinfernallady

good for you brookie. Freezing here and have a headache

3:50 am

Brookie

Sorry to hear that. How cold is it there? I thought you're in the middle of summer!

3:51 am

herinfernallady

It is summer but the wind has picked up here in the hills

3:52 am

Brookie

Ugh, I hate the wind. Thank goodness for indoor climate control.

3:52 am

Brookie

It's 4:52 in the morning, and I'm eating leftover caesar salad. Yum.

3:53 am

dcseain

same time here, brookie. i got home about 10 min ago. I just at a Reese's PB Tree

3:53 am

dcseain

hi lady and brookie

3:54 am

herinfernallady

HI DC

3:54 am

Brookie

hi dc! i could go for a reese's, but my 7 year old told me yesterday that i've gained a lot of weight, so i'm trying to stay away from the sweets.

3:54 am

herinfernallady

No aircon here and just a wood heater

3:55 am

dcseain

LOL brookie about the child commenting

3:55 am

Brookie

just close your eyes, herin, and imagine yourself in the desert

3:55 am

dcseain

but, yes, avoiding sweets this time of year is a challenge

3:55 am

herinfernallady

and its too warm for the wood to get started

3:56 am

Brookie

my problem has been lack of exercise. i used to go for 3-4 mile walks all the time, but the weather hasn't cooperated. i guess i could take my walks at the mall...

3:57 am

dcseain

you could. the mall is rather boring for that, though.

3:57 am

Brookie

no, the people-watching is quite a hoot

3:57 am

dcseain

oh, good point

3:58 am

rubyfoo

doorbell, dog barking, too late! all the snowbirds keep dropping in. Sounds like a long haiku!!!

3:58 am

Brookie

so, how was your new years?

3:58 am

dcseain

LOL ruby

3:59 am

Brookie

lovely impromptu haiku, ruby

3:59 am

rubyfoo

quiet here except for the fireworks and firecrackers which make the dogs crazy

3:59 am

dcseain

i played the tradational New Year's Mah Jongg game :)

3:59 am

herinfernallady

Quiet I ran away to the hills

3:59 am

dcseain

always a good idea that, herin :)

4:00 am

herinfernallady

Yep. middle of no where it was great

4:00 am

Brookie

children fell asleep very early, so i celebrated by finally getting some sleep of my own

4:00 am

dcseain

i'm proud of myself for finding 3 of the 8s in my first 81 words :)

4:00 am

dcseain

there's a treat, brookie, if ever!

4:01 am

dcseain

i'm glad that fireworks/firecrackers are not part of new year around here.

4:01 am

Brookie

just got 1 of the 8s in my first 103 words. and apparently i'm fat :-)

4:01 am

herinfernallady

DC if yuou look at my FB pics that table of food is what we had NYE

4:01 am

rubyfoo

when I lived in Miami, people would shoot guns straight up into the air at midnight!

4:01 am

rubyfoo

every year some bystanders were shot!

4:02 am

Brookie

omg, ruby!

4:02 am

dcseain

my goodness, ruby.

4:03 am

dcseain

herein, i'll check them out

4:03 am

herinfernallady

ok

4:04 am

Brookie

if any of you would like to "friend" me on fb, search for me on my email address... bsgrubb at aol dot com

4:04 am

dcseain

wow. found the rest of the 8s. :)

4:05 am

Brookie

i'm very impressed, dc

4:05 am

rubyfoo

will do, brookie, this is a very friendly game! I've been playing lexulous blitz which is VERY competitive!!!

4:06 am

herinfernallady

I am just trying to find info on my Grand pop.

4:06 am

herinfernallady

Brookie i will add you

4:06 am

Brookie

just send me a note on fb too, so i know it's you!

4:07 am

Brookie

trying to find your grandpop on fb, or somewhere else?

4:08 am

herinfernallady

Brookie my Grand Pop Has a very long and interesting history with the military. Sadly he passed when I was a baby.

4:08 am

herinfernallady

And I have FB added you

4:08 am

dcseain

i noted my babble identity in my request

4:08 am

Brookie

thanks everyone!

4:09 am

Brookie

herin, sorry you couldn't really meet your grandpop. how are you gathering information about him? from your other relatives? online?

4:10 am

Brookie

will be back in a minute... going to check facebook.

4:10 am

herinfernallady

I am curious

4:11 am

rubyfoo

i just tried to "friend" brookie and got a weird message. I'll try again before lunch

4:12 am

Brookie

it worked, ruby... just accepted your friend request (along with herin's and dc's). how cool, thanks again!

4:12 am

dcseain

babble is the reason i have a FB account. I've coincidentally reconnected with a bunch of people from long ago in the process.

4:13 am

rubyfoo

I thought it didn't but I'm pleased. I've only been on for 2 wks but find this very open and nice. Thank you all for being so accepting of my iuneptitude!!! lol

4:14 am

herinfernallady

It's really interesting but my nan is no longer here too

4:14 am

Brookie

ruby, i'm inept every single day, so occasional departures from perfection from everyone else are totally accepted in my book!

4:15 am

rubyfoo

lol

4:15 am

rubyfoo

not if I could just get the picture sorted out, I'd be happy, then everybody could see the "real" Ruby!

4:16 am

Brookie

i got a fb account to connect with former classmates before my hs reunion.

4:16 am

Brookie

you're right, dc, it's amazing who you can reconnect with... i recently found my best friend from elementary school!

4:16 am

dcseain

we organized our reunion through FB this time. Last time, we did it through our yahoo group.

4:17 am

Brookie

was fb in use 5 years ago? 10 years ago? (whenever your second-to-last reunion was?)

4:18 am

dcseain

FB did not exist 5 years ago when we did the last one

4:18 am

herinfernallady

Sadly all the ''story'' tellers are gone in my family

4:18 am

Brookie

sorry to hear that herin

4:18 am

rubyfoo

although I've found some old (old) friends on fb, I find that I have more in common with my new friends from games and that we quickly run out of things to talk about

4:19 am

dcseain

you'll cary on the stories in your time, too, herin

4:19 am

herinfernallady

well no one talks about stuff which should be recorded

4:19 am

herinfernallady

well no one talks about stuff which should be recorded

4:20 am

rubyfoo

before she died, I had my grandmother tell me about all the people in the old family photographs; it is a wonderful trove of info

4:20 am

herinfernallady

Just now I found out my Grandfather was in the Scots Royal Guard and that my Great Grandfather was one of the few that survived the landings at Gallipoli

4:21 am

Brookie

how did you uncover this information, herin?

4:21 am

dcseain

that's really wonderful, herin :)

4:21 am

rubyfoo

that's great stuff, herin

4:21 am

dcseain

20-20-20-24 hours to go-o-o-o, i want to be se7.36

4:22 am

Brookie

thanks for the clue, dc!

4:22 am

herinfernallady

And then the tough bugger marched from Wales to England in the Coal miners strike

4:23 am

dcseain

LOL, glad it was helpful

4:23 am

dcseain

one of my great-great-great-grandmothers left Wales to get away from the mines.

4:24 am

dcseain

oops great-great-grandmother rather

4:24 am

dcseain

got carried away ther

4:24 am

Haz1558

It was probably to get away from Tom Jones' great grandfather singing, but that's another story.

4:24 am

herinfernallady

DC my Nana did tell me some wonderful stories

4:24 am

rubyfoo

hello haz

4:25 am

dcseain

ROFL haz

4:25 am

Haz1558

Good morning/evening all.

4:25 am

dcseain

good morning, haz

4:25 am

Haz1558

I've been doing family history research and there's an amazing amount of info on the internet.

4:26 am

dcseain

there is indeed

4:26 am

Haz1558

Hello seain, ruby, herin.

4:26 am

herinfernallady

Haz there is but it doesn't help when Pop was in the Secret Services in England

4:27 am

Haz1558

During what period?

4:27 am

herinfernallady

WW2

4:27 am

herinfernallady

Royal Scots Guard also and he worked for the Home Office (hope that is right)

4:28 am

rubyfoo

lunch break, apero time, see you later

4:28 am

dcseain

njoy, ruby

4:28 am

herinfernallady

later Ruby

4:28 am

Haz1558

Bye ruby.

4:29 am

herinfernallady

Haz does that make sense? I think we have to wait until the files are opened

4:30 am

Haz1558

Secret stuff usually stays secret. The files may never be opened. If you're using nationalarchives.gov.uk and if you have his service numbers, you should be able to get as much as they're prepared to give you.

4:30 am

Haz1558

That generation took the 'Secret' part very seriously.

4:31 am

dcseain

very muchso, even here, haz.

4:31 am

Flask1

Good morning all.....

4:32 am

dcseain

good morning, flask

4:32 am

herinfernallady

I just have his name and thank you for that

4:32 am

Haz1558

We only discovered that a friend's great aunt had probably served in Bletchley Park during the war when she became demented and started to look back. No-one had any clue, we knew she had been in WRAF but that was as far as it went.

4:33 am

Haz1558

It'll be easier, herin, if you can get his service number - WW1 medals had service numbers on them, not sure about WW2.

4:33 am

Haz1558

Good morning, Flask.

4:34 am

herinfernallady

Thank you Haz. We don't have any of his meddles

4:34 am

herinfernallady

Was Bletchley Park the decoders?

4:34 am

Haz1558

The other way of making contact, might be to write to his regiment to see what they might have on him.

4:34 am

Haz1558

Yes, as featured in Enigma. She wouldn't have been decoding, but she would have been working in the background supporting the whole enterprise.

4:35 am

dcseain

and the support workers do more than they ever get credit for in many an effort, not least in time of war

4:36 am

Haz1558

Absolutely, it's a team effort.

4:36 am

herinfernallady

I just would love to see photos of him. My Aunt has a pic of the ship that my GGrandfather was on

4:37 am

Haz1558

Then the regiment might be the best bet, they may well have records and photographs.

4:37 am

mom2han8

I often think it must have been hard for these women after the war to just give it all up and get married and have families.

4:38 am

herinfernallady

That is what I am trying to find out Haz. THank you for the website. Hi Mom

4:38 am

Haz1558

All the best for the search, herin.

4:38 am

mom2han8

Hi all... sorry, just jumped into the chog.

4:40 am

Haz1558

Hello, mom. I imagine that feelings were mixed. The war would have been a hard slog, certainly after the war in Britain, it was no picnic either with rationing continuing etc.

4:40 am

dcseain

hello, mom. It was likely harder for some than others. some number were likely relieved to be able to get back to the pre-war routine, insofar as postbellum resumble antebellum

4:40 am

herinfernallady

I do also have a very rare book of the Bombing of London published in the time of WW2

4:41 am

mom2han8

Of course.. but I would imagine that having had opportunity and responsibility and then... *poof* "here's your hat"... it happened here with the factory jobs.

4:42 am

dcseain

excellent point, mom

4:42 am

Haz1558

But don't forget that a lot of war work was heavy, dirty and mundane, not necessarily exciting. Plus many women had to keep house as well, maybe it was nice to have one less struggle?

4:42 am

herinfernallady

Haz i think i will have to just admit that finding anything on him is a lost cause.

4:43 am

herinfernallady

My b.fs Grandma was a gun loader in London and she is tiny

4:43 am

mom2han8

True Haz... I'm sure there were some women who were happy to get back to their prewar lives, others maybe not so much.

4:43 am

Haz1558

herin, I think you'll be able to find at least the bare bones, and if nothing else, you'll be able to corroborate dates etc. Try all the resources before giving up but don't expect too much, if that makes sense.

4:44 am

Haz1558

I agree, mom, I think people will have had different reactions.

4:45 am

herinfernallady

Yes it makes sense

4:45 am

dcseain

herein of the Latter-Day Saints (Mormons) have a temple in your vicinity, most have a genealogy center attached that provide remarkable resources for free

4:46 am

Haz1558

And time for me to go - shopping to do. I don't want to go, but people will keep eating! Bye for now.

4:46 am

dcseain

oh, my. it's nearly 6! I should try to sleep, i suppose. Be well, haz

4:46 am

herinfernallady

Thank you DC

4:46 am

mom2han8

In some industries it did not matter... my grandmother was a nurse. She trained nurses going off to war and continued training nurses throughout her life, but nursing, back then, was a predominantly "female" field. So, for her, she got an opportunity to teach and was able to continue doing it. Not the same story for most female workers during the war.

4:46 am

herinfernallady

Bye and Thank you haz. BRB I have to go somewhere for a min

4:46 am

Haz1558

Bye! (www.familysearch.org for the Mormon records online) *gone*

4:47 am

mom2han8

OMG dc... you are going off to bed and I am going off to work, LOL.

4:52 am

dcseain

well, i went out about 17 and got home about 4

4:53 am

mom2han8

when then you need some sleep.

4:54 am

herinfernallady

brrr

4:57 am

dcseain

Have a great day, mom. Good evening, herin. Happy Babbling, yall!

8:02 am

lawyer-1

Oodle, just be thankful that you are not an American applying for OASDI in Canada

8:02 am

oodleberry

because we ALL live in north AMERICA

8:03 am

crosshair

8:03 am

oodleberry

hold on

8:05 am

oodleberry

well I was told that canada will pay ... they take it from the states but I guess the process is long eh?

8:05 am

crosshair

lol,if your doing alternate payment methods it can take long indeed

8:05 am

lawyer-1

long? that's an understatement. I started the process in Feb.

8:06 am

crosshair

last form i saw was year and a half...cash

8:06 am

flosey

what is OASDI?

8:06 am

lawyer-1

Getting Canada Pension is easy, but OASDI is a PITA

8:06 am

kje

asks the canadian - lol

8:07 am

flosey

yup

8:07 am

Anniebrook

Is that disability insurance?

8:07 am

lawyer-1

In Canada there are two government plans similar to US Social Security

8:07 am

crosshair

looks almost like aid to disabled person form

8:07 am

oodleberry

well if it takes long for one government to do something that doesn't surprise me that it will take twice as long when two governments are involved PLUS a thuird when dealing with Québec

8:07 am

lawyer-1

The one that pays the most is the easiest to get

8:07 am

Anniebrook

yes, I thought so too crossy

8:08 am

crosshair

quebec??? lol all bets are off,it could circulate for 2 years

8:08 am

lawyer-1

Social Security can also be for either old age or disability

8:08 am

crosshair

indeed lawyer,my wife collects disability

8:09 am

oodleberry

pfffft... and it took me a year longer to get my freaking perminant resident card but with all the waiting I became eligible for citizenship HA!

8:09 am

crosshair

lol,there are up sides to it

8:09 am

lawyer-1

10 mos. after I applied, they wroe giving me 60 days to supply them with a card that the government makes you hand in when you emigrate from Canada

8:10 am

oodleberry

OMG that is confuzzling

8:10 am

crosshair

took us 10 years to finally get her disability papers approved though..damn doctors play tennis with the forms

8:10 am

lawyer-1

so, now I must apply to the Consulate to get a copy of that card

8:10 am

oodleberry

8:10 am

oodleberry

8:20 am

Scrabbler

But you probably speak with an "English" accent so they know you are not a native, thus rejection

8:20 am

oodleberry

no

8:20 am

Scrabbler

Where else can you move to, Oodle? You need a fresh start.

8:21 am

oodleberry

8:21 am

Scrabbler

Geez, Oodle.

Scrabbler

crosshair

Ruby, you live in France? How did you end up there?

8:37 am

rubyfoo

hi annie

8:37 am

bojazz

hi Annie

8:37 am

kje

because I am a hospitalist, by JACHO rules, we cannot write trade names, it is all generic, so I am starting to not really think in trade names anymore

8:37 am

bojazz

kje - what does texas mean?

8:37 am

rubyfoo

retired here, always loved it and it was affordable

8:37 am

kje

which sucks, since generic names are much longer and harder to spell - LOL

8:37 am

rubyfoo

also really beautiful between the Alps and Lake Annecy, both visible

8:38 am

kje

bo - click on the little box with a question mark by the word and it gives you a definition

8:38 am

bojazz

duh! not awake yet...

8:38 am

Scrabbler

Over the last several years I have made myself switch to drug names in both notes and with parents, and I teach students, residents, nurses to do the same. Also with imms--old records have TriHibit, TriPedia, etc and no one knows what those are.

8:38 am

oodleberry

it is a cabin for officers on a boat

8:39 am

Scrabbler

Must be gorgeous, Ruby!

8:39 am

kje

have heard of tripedia, but have never heard the word trihibit

8:39 am

Scrabbler

But it is easier to use Pulmicort with parents than budesonide

8:40 am

bojazz

interesting

8:40 am

rubyfoo

wonderful here and very nice people in our little village

8:40 am

Scrabbler

With the combo vaccines it is better to write down the components than the trade name

8:41 am

Scrabbler

Ruby is making me long for retirement rather than using trade names of drugs

8:42 am

rubyfoo

how about retirement with drugs? lol

Good Morning, fellow Babblers. I just hate it when the dictionary says my *word* isn't a WORD, or that it doesn't exist in the puzzle! One of us is ornery today, I think.

9:59 am

phaeton

di7 is an affliction

9:59 am

welki

white on the inside? most of the potatoes here in north american are white on the inside (idaho, russets, etc) ... some are brown skinned, some red

9:59 am

oodleberry

oh probably from there then ata

9:59 am

Atalante

*looks them up* wanna see!

9:59 am

bichon

Flask1

thanx phae....and Happy new year to you..

10:00 am

oodleberry

plural to re semenate

10:00 am

Atalante

lol the first link I see: "Yellow-fleshed potatoes are common in Europe and South America. In fact, yellow flesh potatoes are actually considered the norm in most countries outside North America, so naturally, immigrants to North America were accustomed to and preferred potatoes with yellow flesh."

10:00 am

hego

sit down again bichon

10:00 am

phaeton

yw flask..happy new year to you too, and everyone herer

10:00 am

Nef

Ata, here in the US, we have Idaho potaoes (for baking) and red potatoes (for boiling) and the gold potatoes are kind of in between. The Yukon golds can be baked and they almost have a buttery taste, I don't use much butter on them at all. Then there are purple potatoes, finger potatoes, etc

10:01 am

bichon

ty hego for the re 8

10:01 am

Atalante

I think the Yukon Golds are almost like our Jersey Royals, a lot of our potatoes are yellow-y and yummy

10:01 am

oodleberry

but when I was in france I never saw a yellow potato ata

10:01 am

hego

Potatos are native to the Western hemisphere

10:01 am

welki

hey! i loved baked reds, nef! and fries, too!

10:02 am

hego

In Italy, they're white fleshed

10:02 am

Atalante

in Italy, they have all sorts

10:02 am

oodleberry

only good thing here in quebec city is the food... it is the only thing I do well... and that is eat...

10:03 am

hego

Great talent Oodle.

10:03 am

Atalante

definitely

10:03 am

Nef

so do I welki. However, when you eat out you only get russets or idaho potaoes when you order baked. There's a big difference in the starch content of the different varieties

10:03 am

oodleberry

but but but hego didn't you know that the italian potatoes are from which they get pasta you silly girl :D

10:03 am

flosey

I love baked Idahos

10:03 am

welki

ohhh, here, it's common to be served a rough mash of red potatoes with herbs

10:04 am

Atalante

I love baked Estimas

10:04 am

welki

i jumped the gun .. yep, whites for baked if eating out)

10:04 am

flosey

that's a new name to me Ata

10:04 am

Atalante

but I do live in the middle of a potato growing region, so I can get about 20 vareties in the local farm shops!

10:04 am

hego

I've been to cooking tours in Italy and I swear the potatos we used were white to make the gnocchi.

10:05 am

Atalante

Estimas are local Kent potatoes, the best best for baking cos they don't need even a smidgen of butter

10:05 am

phaeton

i find idaho potatoes very dry to the taste

10:05 am

Atalante

well yes, but they don't just have gnocchi :P if you have had the little fried potato balls etc, those can be made from anything

10:05 am

oodleberry

they are called pasta potatoes... that's where all pasta is from in Italy.... *giggles*

10:05 am

flosey

wow Ata, would love to try them! I smother my baked potatoes with butter and sour cream!

10:05 am

Nef

I usually buy Yukon Golds these days, I like the flavor better than the russets. If there aren't any Gold potaotes, then I get the red potatoes. I love baby red potatoes in a white sauce.

10:06 am

Atalante

now I really want gnocchi!

10:06 am

bichon

I didn't know that potatos could bring up so much chat

10:06 am

bichon

I am diabetic and don't eat them much [sadly]

10:06 am

welki

<-- is not a potato afficianado, will eat any potato, so watch yer spuds!

10:06 am

hego

Stop it Oodle, most pasta is made from wheat.

10:06 am

flosey

hubby grows the reds

10:06 am

Atalante

you'd love them, Flosey! It was an absolute eye-opener for me. I'd never managed baked potatoes without lashings of butter before, these just taste like they have butter already in them. Utterly wonderful

10:06 am

welki

(but will put yukon golds on the shopping list once i'm done with the reds i have)

10:07 am

Nef

bichon, you can have them, just watch your carbs when you do

10:07 am

oodleberry

nu uh

10:07 am

hego

I'll make you some, Ata

10:07 am

Atalante

just means you can pile more cheese on top and get your calories that way :D

10:07 am

hego

Uh huh

10:07 am

oodleberry

nu uh

10:07 am

hego

I make fresh pasta all the timeOodle you bad boy.

10:08 am

bichon

Nef, potatoes are really high in carbs. I eat for whole carbs than a potato has

10:08 am

oodleberry

hego??? check to see if your leg is still attached, dear

10:08 am

Atalante

fresh pasta is the *best*

10:08 am

bichon

*whole grains

10:08 am

Nef

you should try the fingerlings too. And the purple ones (but purple mashed potatoes can be strange -- and expensive!)

10:09 am

oodleberry

well I cannot because I am allergic to wheat SO THERE

10:09 am

hego

What? how did my leg get dettatched

10:09 am

oodleberry

but maybe i will try making my own pasta... I think it is easy enough eh?

10:09 am

welki

wiki says that, under italian law, dry pasta can only be made from durham wheat flour

10:09 am

oodleberry

CAUSE I AM PULLING ON IT YOU SILLY GIRL

10:09 am

Atalante

10:10 am

hego

Bye Flosey.

10:10 am

oodleberry

bbye flosey hagd

10:10 am

welki

dont see why you couldn't make pasta from potato flour, though .. 'specially if you can't tolerate gluten

10:11 am

lizmac

NM got it

10:11 am

hego

Rice flour is best for gluten free pasta.

10:11 am

oodleberry

rice barley oat buckwheat(not wheat) corn rye can all be used to make pasta

10:12 am

oodleberry

oh and quinoa too...

10:12 am

10:12 am

Bethjt

Oodle You might try glute-free.com. They have a wide variety of gluten free foods.

10:12 am

Atalante

mmm I know. I love making pasta

10:12 am

welki

some italian pastas require buckwheat flour .. so you're ahead of the game :)

10:12 am

oodleberry

yes hego rice and quinoa

10:12 am

hego

My deceased husband had celiac and I became quite good at gluten free cooking. It's hard.

10:12 am

oodleberry

but they use some wheat flour in it welki

10:12 am

Bethjt

But I don't know any recipes for fresh wheat free pasta

10:13 am

Bethjt

OOps. Gluten-Free.com

10:21 am

jmcnrick

lol

10:21 am

Nef

hi jmc

10:21 am

jmcnrick

it was better than i hoped

10:22 am

jmcnrick

it's a group of old lefty lawyers and they tend to talk about conspiracies and other things that bore me to extinction

10:22 am

jmcnrick

but they are old friends

10:22 am

welki

don't you love it when that happens? that's the v8 moment, when you bonk yourself on the head for trying to figure out a way to avoid going :)

10:23 am

jmcnrick

but the host had been clearing out her mother's estate and we got to look at tatting and crochet and old vases

10:23 am

Nef

did they tone it down last night or discuss other topics?

10:23 am

welki

all folks would find here is dust bunnies

10:23 am

jmcnrick

well one of them went off about how climate change was a right wing conspiracy

10:24 am

jmcnrick

i told him that sarah palin would be proud of him

10:24 am

welki

ohhh, you walked the tightrope! LOL

10:24 am

Nef

LOL!!!

10:25 am

bichon

We saw "Avatar" yesterday and loved it.

10:25 am

jmcnrick

well you know old old friends we all started practicing law at about the same time

10:25 am

jmcnrick

but the fabric was wonderful

10:25 am

welki

poke the tiger, poke the tiger :)

10:25 am

Nef

sounds like fun, jmc.

10:26 am

jmcnrick

we are all pretty toothless around each other

10:26 am

jmcnrick

most of us have either work in the same office or represented each other in matters or were co-counsel

10:26 am

jmcnrick

it was fun -- i got home much later than usual

10:26 am

welki

well, i'm glad you had a good time and some good laughs :)

10:28 am

Nef

10:28 am

welki

i'm stuck ... so will go finish my coffee, pretend to do something around here and be back later. bye for now

10:29 am

Minveryork

Hello Judi! How are you doing? Welcome to the puzzle

10:29 am

jmcnrick

coffee I knew i was missing something!

10:29 am

jmcnrick

bye welkie

10:29 am

Minveryork

I am well jmcnrick. I woke up to even more snow this morning.Procrastinating about shoveling all the snow

10:30 am

Judi

Very windy and cold here today. New Year blowing in like a lion.

10:30 am

jmcnrick

you can only put off shoveling snow for so long or it is likely to get worse before it gets better

10:30 am

jmcnrick

really windy here too -- they have a wind advisory going

10:31 am

jmcnrick

although i must admit being advised that there is lots of wind seems kinda silly

10:31 am

welki

sheesh ... throwing this into chat for a decision. i need to cook today, i need some real food and haven't been able to do much of anything for the last few days (sprained ankle). lamb chops or scallops?

10:32 am

Nef

so true, jmc. We had a bad storm over Christmas, and my dtr. hasn't shovelled out her convertible yet. Then it rained and snowed and froze even more. She'd going to have a hard time digging it out this next week. (she's been using my car while I recuperate)

10:32 am

welki

because heaven forbid someone makes a decision around here! LOL

10:32 am

jmcnrick

scallops cook faster but with pork chops you can sit down inbetween

10:32 am

Judi

Hmmm. Lamb chops might be less fussy, Welki.

10:32 am

jmcnrick

sorry lamp chops

10:32 am

Gail

Order pizza.

10:32 am

Nef

Lamb Chops would be easiest

10:32 am

jmcnrick

sorry your ankle was hurt so badly

10:32 am

welki

gail :)

10:32 am

jmcnrick

pizza!!!!

10:33 am

jmcnrick

hi gail sorry to have been so dense in FB

10:33 am

Judi

Brilliant, Gail!

10:33 am

welki

ok, lamb chops it is (can't get real pizza here in calgary ... real pizza = real food, not this stuff they pass off as pizza here)

10:33 am

welki

thanks, kids!

10:33 am

Gail

Take it from somebody who's been in a cast/boot since August. Order takeout. How about Chinese?

10:33 am

jmcnrick

yw welki

10:34 am

Nef

How'd you sprain your ankle, welki?

10:34 am

oodleberry

if I weren't allergic to wheat I would choose pizza

10:34 am

Minveryork

Hello Gail! How are you doing? Welcome to the puzzle

10:34 am

Gail

I am doing great. Getting a late start today.

10:34 am

jmcnrick

goodness gail! hope it comes off soon

10:34 am

jmcnrick

brb I need a new icon and to brew some coffee

10:34 am

oodleberry

what is the difference tween real and fake pizza?

10:34 am

Gail

A couple more months should do it.

10:35 am

Minveryork

I see in your profile that you are from Vermont. Had Christmas up in Vermont. I was there for four days.

10:35 am

oodleberry

as for fake pizza many parts are edible

10:35 am

Gail

Oh, good. We have a little snow to make it white.

10:35 am

phaeton

Min...who are you talking to?

10:36 am

Gail

Mi!

10:36 am

Minveryork

Gail

10:36 am

Gail

Or Me.

10:36 am

Minveryork

Hi phaeton! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid!

10:36 am

Judi

Hey, oodle. I found a realy good gluten free pizza crust. It's called "Against the Grain". In the frozen section.

10:37 am

phaeton

Happy New Year Minver and Gail!

10:37 am

oodleberry

and it doesn,t cook up like a cracker that you can't bite into?

10:37 am

hurshy

mmm, christmas in vermont! if only one could just have christmas wherever one liked...

10:37 am

Judi

No. It's delicious. Nice and chewy.

10:38 am

Minveryork

Thanks phaeton. Happy New Year to you too. I hope 2020 brings you a year of much happiness & success.

10:38 am

oodleberry

I have also found frozen gluten free pizza... unfortunately... not the same and I am in canada... but I will look for the brand nam... 'Against the grain' you say?

10:38 am

phaeton

me too Min, but we have to get thru 2010 first :)

10:38 am

hurshy

have a good year, phae, you just have to wait 10 bad ones first... sounds almost biblical

10:39 am

oodleberry

actually if it doesn't have any thing on it that is in french I doubt it would be in stores here

10:39 am

Minveryork

3 phantom words for me are dioxide,exit and studies

10:39 am

Nef

LOL!! I agree with hurshy!

10:39 am

sciencegeek

etude

10:39 am

Judi

Yes. The three cheese is the best. Ingredients are: Tapioca starch, milk, eggs, canola oil, cheddar cheese, mozzarella and parmesan. That's it!

10:40 am

hurshy

and why isn't doody a word?

10:40 am

Judi

Made in Brattleboro Vermont by Against the Grain Gourmet.

10:40 am

oodleberry

kewel

10:40 am

Gail

Against the Grain products are very good.

10:40 am

oodleberry

i looked it up and it just might be here cause it is from england

10:41 am

Judi

I suppose all the fattening cheese is what really makes it good.

10:41 am

Gail

There are Oods in the grid - all you Dr. Who fans...

10:41 am

hurshy

noticed that first thing!

10:41 am

bichon

fat always makes me feel more contented and full. I usually have hot cereal in the AM with "Smart Balance" in it

10:42 am

Gail

Of course you did.

10:42 am

hurshy

ok, the food talk needs to stop until i go to the grocery store. i'm in the back-from-travelling-yesterday empty-kitchen phase.

10:44 am

hurshy

the ordering tone of that post was in jest, btw...

10:45 am

Atalante

I saw the Oods too :)

10:45 am

Judi

Cranky. You should have something to eat, Hurshy. :-)

10:46 am

Atalante

I don't know if it's the same type, but we get a gluten-free pizza base here that's seriously nicer than most gluten-full ones

10:46 am

oodleberry

that's what sucks being in quebec ... you can't find half the products that the rest of canada can easily find

10:46 am

Judi

Pizza crust made with rice flour alone just doesn't cut it.

10:47 am

Atalante

next time I go shopping, I'll have a look for you Oodle

10:47 am

oodleberry

but inthe rest of canada they don't have cheese curds which is day old cheese

10:48 am

BabbleRabble

so Quebec is the whey to curds

10:48 am

hurshy

hahahaha

10:49 am

Judi

There's always mail order, Oodle. They still have pony express and dog sled delivery in Quebec, eh?

10:49 am

oodleberry

ty ata that is nice of you

10:49 am

oodleberry

nope I think it is by foot

10:50 am

oodleberry

brb going to call mom

10:56 am

hurshy

i wonder what made that notch in the tree?

10:56 am

hurshy

it's clearly an axcut.

10:56 am

Atalante

and what do you call a pretty ax?

10:57 am

hurshy

axotic?

10:57 am

Atalante

a cu4ax!

10:57 am

hurshy

ahhh

10:57 am

Atalante

but yours works too

10:58 am

hurshy

as long as they don't institute a cu4 tax

10:59 am

Atalante

I should hope not!

10:59 am

Atalante

the Ood would have to pay

10:59 am

hurshy

lol, no they wouldn't!

10:59 am

hurshy

i love them DESPITE their looks!

11:00 am

Atalante

they are great

11:00 am

Haz1558

But they're aliens.

11:00 am

Atalante

so youre going to see part 2 today?

11:00 am

hurshy

yep

11:00 am

Atalante

they are indeed!

11:00 am

Haz1558

It says so in Google.

11:01 am

Atalante

looooool

11:01 am

Atalante

they sing

11:01 am

hurshy

*detecting some xenophobia from haz's direction*

11:01 am

Atalante

have tissues nearby. it's really quite heartrending

11:02 am

Atalante

she's Irish, what do you expect?

11:02 am

Haz1558

No xenophobia at all. They're aliens in the most non-xenophobic sense of the word.

11:02 am

zoe_girl

cu 7 please, and how is everyone today?

11:02 am

Atalante

did you see a pic of the,?

11:02 am

Atalante

them!

11:02 am

hurshy

haz, your comment began with a "but". that sounded xenophobic to me .

11:03 am

Haz1558

cu7 - not a description to be attacned to the Ood - Shirley Temple, yes, Ood no.

11:03 am

Haz1558

But I start every sentence with but, so I do.

11:03 am

Atalante

but they are!! LOL

11:04 am

hurshy

i see 2 sentences at 11:02 that belie this claim.

11:04 am

Haz1558

I haven't the faintest idea what they look like but it said something about their brains being on display. That can't be a good look.

11:05 am

Gail

I think the Oods are cu4/6

11:05 am

zoe_girl

thanks haz

11:05 am

Haz1558

You're welcome, zoe.

11:05 am

Nef

cu7 is an extenion of the cu5 above it; a sort of endearing term

11:06 am

Haz1558

But, sure, begorrah I'll need to see a picture of these Ood to know what they look like.

11:06 am

hurshy

you're not gonna like it, haz

11:06 am

Haz1558

They're disgusting!

11:06 am

Gail

But you need to check out the BBC website.

11:07 am

Haz1558

I'd seen them on trailers but never known what they were called. Bring back Daleks.

11:07 am

Atalante

<- refresh. Can you tell the difference between an Ood and David Tennant, Haz?

11:08 am

Haz1558

That's easy. He looks normal, though surprised.

11:08 am

hurshy

mmm, i had the loveliest david tennant dream earlier this week...

11:08 am

Gail

Bring back the Cybermen. They really are scary! I love how funny they were in the really old episods. All tin foil and paper towel rolls.

11:08 am

Atalante

yes, the Ood looks very pretty with a pink hula thingy

11:08 am

hurshy

if my dream is any indication, he is a VERY good kisser.

11:09 am

Judi

I can't see the Ood's brain, but it looks like there's spaghetti hanging out his nose.

11:09 am

Gail

Lucky Hurshy. Oooh, I am jealous. All I seem to dream about is my ex. Ick.

11:09 am

Atalante

the old monsters were just hilarious. and very scary

11:09 am

rururocks

who is ood?

11:09 am

hurshy

here we go again

11:10 am

Haz1558

The Oods are odd.

11:10 am

Gail

The Daleks were always running into the walls. On one episode they had to set one back upright and then just went on with the show.

11:10 am

Atalante

I've been watching an anime series and one of the main charries in it is called Ruru

11:11 am

ata why the cone... did she have some surgery or something and don't want her licking ro scratching herself??

11:21 am

sometimes they end with et and sometimes they end with something else

Atalante

she had an infected tail

You're welcome, Judi. I win the prize for coherent clue.

Deeha

This dictionary allowes you some - what I consider - quite offensive words - like yi4/7 and yet it wouldnt allow me negro - which I find strange????

11:22 am

Haz1558

Negro is capitalised, Deeha.

11:22 am

Atalante

neo-predef?

11:22 am

rururocks

because black people kvetch more than jewish people

11:22 am

hurshy

it never excludes based on offensiveness. whatever reasons things are excluded are either grammatical or un-figure-out-able

11:22 am

rururocks

It is for hot spots and irritated skin.. it works like a charm.. you can buy it at dog shows or a vet

11:24 am

Atalante

she's got generally very good skin. we think she just got her "tail" caught on something and no-one noticed until infection had set i properly

11:24 am

Deeha

I thinjk perhaps rururocks is pretty close!! I suppose now I think about it Negro is capitalised -en masse tho' ????!!!¬

11:24 am

Atalante

*random* "hot spots" is something I've never heard a non-american say about dogs

11:24 am

rururocks

yeah.. ata... it could be almost anything.. haz's husband would know

11:24 am

Judi

Isn't "negro" spanish for black? There is a spanish farewell in today's grid.

11:25 am

Haz1558

Well, for instance, it would accept negroid if it occurred in the puzzle.

11:25 am

hurshy

and it accepts ni6.

11:25 am

hurshy

and it accepts some spanish and french words but obviously not all.

11:25 am

rururocks

I tried sextoid but that didn't work

11:25 am

Atalante

ours is not to reason why

11:26 am

Haz1558

Ours is but to grumble.

11:26 am

rururocks

it also accepts negroni

11:27 am

Deeha

How true - and how English Haz see I used a ca[ital!!

11:27 am

Judi

Black pasta??

11:27 am

rururocks

11:27 am

rururocks

11:27 am

Atalante

it's yummy

11:28 am

Haz1558

The Oods look as though they could bleed squid ink.

11:28 am

rururocks

Babbo serves it in NYC.. really delicious

11:28 am

Judi

I like squid, but not the ink. Yeech.

11:29 am

Atalante

11:29 am

hurshy

nice grid. one pass through and i only have 13 left.

11:29 am

rururocks

11:34 am

sciencegeek

11:34 am

hurshy

if you are going out for the evening, and you don't want to leave your plane, you might find someone to stay with it. after which he/she could say that he/she had ae7.

11:34 am

hurshy

Minveryork

The da 4/5 is January 3, 1010.Here's my second clue paragraph for the year. Spent Christmas in Vermont with my family. I never like the long ri 4/5 up there, but it is worth it in the end. Niece and nephew were so cu 4/6 with their exci4/5ment for Santa to come with his 8 reinde4/5. Now that the holidays are over I must go on a di 4/5. Pretty soon I won't be able to fit through the do4/5. As much as I ad 5/12 X-Mas, I am glad it is over. I did get a do 4/5 of reality today when hubby reminded me I have work in two days. It will be very hard for me to ri4/4 early in the morning and ea 4/4 back into the swing of things on Monday. I have an id 4/5 to call in sick on Monday.I would not give one io4/4 what my boss would think of that.But sometimes my id5/12 are not so good&I do the right thing instead. Well I have sa 4/5 all that I wanted to say at this time. I hope some of you got some cu 4/6.

4:12 pm

Atalante

I should go too.

4:12 pm

Pinikula

you know, it's one thing to have a number for the words you still need to find (i.e., 82 for me); however, it's another when you look at the list and see how many (i.e., a bazillion!)

4:12 pm

Atalante

it's late and I'm tired and I just love your bunnies, scrab!

4:12 pm

Nef

I thought the grid was fun for the first 130-150; then I had to list. the last 40 or so were like pulling teeth since I'd *thought* I'd already entered them!

4:12 pm

oodleberry

i was thinking potatoes take so long in the micro wave then I just remembered telling my mother in 1974 to buy a microwave they only take five minutes as opposed to an hour DUH

No thanks Nef. Check on us later?

4:44 pm

Scrabs, se 6/21, and the 2 7s following it are related to making someone sleep

4:45 pm

jmcnrick

4:45 pm

Scrabbler

TY, Nef!

4:45 pm

Scrabbler

N, I SUCK at QP but am enjoying myself anyway

4:47 pm

nrkii

Scrabs, you will get better, I know it

4:47 pm

Pinikula

what is QP?

4:47 pm

nrkii

www.quote-puzzler.com

4:47 pm

Scrabbler

I hate the last 2--Word Builder and HoneyComb

4:47 pm

Nef

sg, the yi and yo are identical except for the vowel

4:47 pm

nrkii

10 different word puzzles every day

4:48 pm

Nef

anyone else need clues?

4:48 pm

nrkii

yeah, those last 2 are not-timed for a reason!

4:48 pm

jmcnrick

what kind of puzzles? crosswords?

4:49 pm

Nef

okay, bye for now! <poof!>

4:49 pm

jmcnrick

bye nef

4:49 pm

bojazz

bye Nef

4:49 pm

Scrabbler

*I just heard myself do Curly (Stooge) sound when a word didn't work* LOL

4:49 pm

nrkii

Not crosswords, they're all a takeoff on some other game... there's one that's like hangman, but harder; there's one that's like scrabble, but you can make backwards words too, there are a few that are quotes and you have to rearrange letters to find them... etc.

4:49 pm

jmcnrick

lol scrabs

4:50 pm

jmcnrick

sounds interesting nrkii

4:50 pm

Scrabbler

I watched the Three Stooges marathon on New year's Eve--hilarious!

4:50 pm

nrkii

there are a handful of babblers who also do the www.quote-puzzler.com puzzles every day

4:50 pm

nrkii

it's a subscription site

4:51 pm

nrkii

Stidmama, Ciocia Judy, Featherbee, FranMag, Muse, me, and now Scrabbler... plus I'm sure others I'm forgetting

4:51 pm

jmcnrick

ah well too broke to make the jump this week -- maybe later

4:51 pm

Pinikula

and ... played ;)

4:51 pm

Scrabbler

Today, N, I figured out the In & Out answer when I was on the out side and I clicked on letters that were IN...Dopey Scrabbler!

4:51 pm

sciencegeek

anyone heard of Dr. Kaboom?

4:52 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Hello all

4:52 pm

nrkii

Scrabbler, I do that too.

4:52 pm

jmcnrick

hi kap

4:52 pm

4:52 pm

oodleberry

i have 13 000 d words left woooohooooooooo yahooeeeee

4:52 pm

Scrabbler

hi kaplan

4:52 pm

nrkii

Key thing on In & Out is to type in the answer in the box below as soon as you get it

4:52 pm

nrkii

Don't keep clicking on letters, because every click costs you points

4:52 pm

Scrabbler

And the concept of creating palindromes is one I must focus on

4:52 pm

nrkii

hi kaplan!

4:53 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I have to do 52 more words, but only have a half hour- so it will be one of those no-fireworks days

4:53 pm

bojazz

hi Kaplan

4:53 pm

sciencegeek

your turn je

4:53 pm

nrkii

kaiak, shtik, and knar are my favorite palindromes on Word Builder and Honeycomb

4:54 pm

Kaplan the Magne

What's new? Boston has a pretty snow, not too much car scraping

4:54 pm

nrkii

alif is another favorite

4:54 pm

Kaplan the Magne

how is knar a palindrome?

4:54 pm

nrkii

no snow in Jersey, just a lot of WIND

4:54 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I just got here, may be missing some crucial info

4:54 pm

oodleberry

click on letters where... here or at that other word pule site nrkii

4:55 pm

nrkii

sorry, not a palindrome in the true sense of the word

4:55 pm

Scrabbler

I must remember those, n

4:55 pm

Kaplan the Magne

What other sense of palindrome is there?

4:55 pm

nrkii

in the games Scrabbler and I are talking about, two allow you to make words that work both ways for double points

4:55 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Ohhhh.

4:55 pm

nrkii

someone at some point starting calling that the semordnilap mode, as a joke

4:56 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I have to go check lickety

4:56 pm

oodleberry

oh ok ty

4:56 pm

nrkii

oodle, on the other site, I meant

4:56 pm

oodleberry

yes I got that

4:56 pm

Scrabbler

The games are maddening yet addictive. My BP must be in the danger zone when I am playing.

4:57 pm

oodleberry

oh no

4:57 pm

nrkii

they are a lot of fun.. have to give credit to the puzzle-maker, who I think has been a babbler in the past too

4:57 pm

nrkii

he was one of our Dougs at one point

4:57 pm

nrkii

I think

4:58 pm

5:00 pm

oodleberry

oh scrab I have a question but more of nutrition than anything else... it is about blueberries which are a good antioxidant. CAn this fact be deminished if you cook them??

5:00 pm

stidgmere

Yes, I make crepes.

5:00 pm

oodleberry

i make buckwheat crepes

5:01 pm

Scrabbler

There are a re6/21 + re7/32 in between

5:01 pm

Scrabbler

Probably, Oodle--cooking denatures proteins

5:01 pm

oodleberry

because I am allergic to wheat

5:01 pm

nrkii

those would be the 2 re's I'm missing :)

5:01 pm

Pinikula

<-- would love a simple crepe recipe for 1 -- if anyone has one?

5:01 pm

oodleberry

and the antioxidant is in the proteins?

5:01 pm

Scrabbler

<---would love to have a personal chef

5:02 pm

oodleberry

5:02 pm

bojazz

5:02 pm

Scrabbler

I suspect so, Oodle. Check out Dr Andrew Weil's site for reliable info

5:02 pm

bojazz

5:03 pm

Scrabbler

I have those, bo, but don't see a re6 in between

5:03 pm

Scrabbler

5:03 pm

I'm actually quite happy, because this year I bought one of those "silly" Edenpure heaters, and it's saving me a ton of money on heat!!!

5:24 pm

redturtlehead

oodle is right about hats....very helpful...

5:24 pm

jmcnrick

5:25 pm

sprite

5:25 pm

Pinikula

5:25 pm

redturtlehead

5:25 pm

harpjane

5:25 pm

nrkii

It's an electric heater that supposedly only uses the power of a coffee maker, and it's completely safe -- won't set stuff on fire and burn your house down, your pets can sleep on top of it, etc

5:26 pm

BabbleRabble

whenever it is cold inside, I stand outside, and feel warmer when I go back in ...

5:26 pm

5:27 pm

5:27 pm

Pinikula

sounds like a nifty little device, nrkii ;)

5:27 pm

nrkii

well, I'm also being better this year about shutting doors and closing off rooms, so some of the saving is just better habits

5:28 pm

nrkii

but I used about 60% the gas this year that I did last year in December, and the temperature was basically the same

5:28 pm

nrkii

bye Kaplan!

5:28 pm

jmcnrick

5:29 pm

BabbleRabble

5:30 pm

Minveryork

Sorry,I made a mistake so I had to repost again nrkii

5:30 pm

redturtlehead

admitting that its supposed to get down to 30 tonight and I am not so thrilled about it.

5:31 pm

jmcnrick

it takes about a 1/2 hour for my radiators to warm my house

5:31 pm

nrkii

Anyway, the edenpure heater is good because I can heat my bedroom at night and let the rest of the house get cold. Only problem is how cold the hallway is when I step out in the morning.... probably gets down to 50.

5:31 pm

jmcnrick

it is 21 already tonight here

5:31 pm

nrkii

jmc, probably about the same here
