6:15 am

Must share...last night my hairdresser decided to cut off the rest of my very short hair, so now look like a 48 year old Emma Watson. Getting odd looks and remarks for the kids as they wake and see "bald Mom"...

7:01 am

7:01 am

I love Amazon. If I can't find it there, I don't buy it.
7:01 am

our amazon is not so diverse...:(
7:02 am
MollyL

I am going to smack my fingers if they try and type drape one more time.
7:02 am
EvaNadine

i was bummed that one of the gifts i got for hubs ended up not being in stock. they had to email me about it...so that set me back a step with him, but i already had other shopping to do for him anyway...
7:04 am

so...
hints for the lower-left corner E or the N beneath the W?

just in case you ever need to know this, "yay, the puppy didn't wake me up at four am!" is, sadly, not the same as "the puppy needed to wake me up at 4 am"
7:06 am

ahh, TY :)
7:07 am
carleekat

oh oh....indy...
7:07 am
MollyL

Trif, I thought you were naming that puppy Bowie.
7:08 am
Trifioso

we were molly, but when we met him it just didn't suit him at all. so we went with Indy, after a whole day of arduous name searching
7:09 am
MollyL

Well, every living thing needs a name that suits them.
7:09 am
Trifioso

Indy is much better.

Boo, the grid is slow going?
7:42 am
Boobear

yes it is
7:43 am
Mom

yesterday's was a nice grid
7:43 am
Boobear

I haven't finished the last 2 grids. Not easy ones
7:44 am
Mom

I rarely finish them
7:44 am
Riverdance

I didnt finish yesterdays either - just didnt have the time for a big grid
7:44 am
beachboggle

clue for the upper righthand e?
7:44 am
Boobear

me neither..just too much to do with Christmas
7:44 am
Mom

I told my sweetie yesterday would be a large grid because I would be away from home all day
7:44 am
Trifioso

giving up my obsession with finishing was one of the best things I even did. Halfway is fine with me. I do like to get to nbt each day, though, I must say
7:45 am

I rarely finish them either; but I love trying!

trif -- i made the same decision quite a while ago.
at first, it was SO tough, but now, im SO glad i made that call.
now, i just aim for NBT and NBS, and halfway if i can get there.
7:45 am
Mom

thanks River
7:46 am
Boobear

ey 4/6 ey plus a consonant
7:46 am
Riverdance

I am not as crazy with finishing as when I first started playing this game
7:47 am
Trifioso

i gave babble up for lent a couple of years ago, and it was a good decision for me. just me. not forcing that idea down anyone's throat
7:47 am
EvaNadine

if its a tiny grid, i will work hard to finish it, but i pretty much only babble at work, so if its a busy day, then sadly, the grid isnt my priority...

besides, i prefer to come here for the people. :)

7:56 am

I approach these grids like a fine wine. I sip at them during the day, and if I finish, fine. If not, it's fun finding the words I find.
7:57 am

pho?
7:57 am
Krysten

Hmmmm...beef pho! I love that!
7:57 am

sounds yummy
7:58 am
MollyL

Eva sends me to Google search often. First it was about her 180's...now pho.
7:58 am
EvaNadine

molly, you werent familiar with 180s?
they fabulous -- you need them. :)
7:59 am
Mom

what are 180s?
7:59 am
EvaNadine

kinda like earmuffs. but better. :)
7:59 am
Mom

ah
7:59 am
EvaNadine

they wrap around the back of your head. much more comfortable.
7:59 am
Mom

could have used those earlier this week
7:59 am
MollyL

Mom, they are those ear muffs that wrap around the head instead of going over it.
8:00 am
EvaNadine

hence the name 180s. 180 degrees around your head. :)
8:00 am
MollyL

I had seen them, just didn't know they were called 180's. I think my kid has a pair, but he and I are hood people.
8:00 am
Mom

lol, those probably wouldn't have fallen off of me when I fell face first on the driveway while shoveling it. The ear muffs went flying :-)
8:00 am
EvaNadine

180s are the originals. but there are other companies now, making the same thing.
8:01 am
MollyL

Ouch Mom. Did you slip? I got some YakTrax this year. I am phobic about slipping on the ice and snow.
8:01 am
Riverdance

YakTrax are the best
8:01 am
Mom

I had my boots on and it was just a small icy patch I didn
8:01 am
Mom

't see
8:01 am
Riverdance

my whole family has those - we need them on our steep driveway when its icy - only way up and down
8:02 am
Mom

never heard of Yak Trax
8:02 am
Mom

will have to look into those
8:02 am
Riverdance

sort of like ice cramp ons but easier and better
8:02 am
Mom

maybe for our older son for when he has to take the puppy out
8:03 am
Riverdance

they sell them at EMS or cabellas
8:03 am
Mom

you must need all wheel drive then River
8:03 am
EvaNadine

see now, i might hafta google YakTrax...heh
8:03 am
Riverdance

yes I drive with all wheel and my DH has 4 wheel but sometimes we still cant make it up the driveway. always have the yaktrax in the car
8:04 am
Riverdance

they slip on over your boots - no straps to tie - easy on and off and great traction
8:04 am
Mom

they are shoes or things that go on the bottom of your shoes?
8:04 am
MollyL

I got mine at Eddie Bauer.
8:05 am
Riverdance

I think we got ours at EMS
8:05 am
Riverdance

any sporting good store or outdoors type store would have them
8:05 am
Mom

Dick's Sporting Goods has them
8:06 am
Mom

as does a shoe store near us (according to their web site)
8:06 am
Riverdance

I think the cheapest ones run about $25 and up from there depending on your outdoor activity
8:07 am
Riverdance

well worth the money if you ice up in the winter
8:08 am
Riverdance

time to go have my breakfast - be back later - happy babbling everyone
8:08 am
Mom

that would be a good gift for sweetie, since he walks around downtown from job to job and the sidewalks are always cleared
8:08 am
Mom

bye bye (((River))) take care

what is on the menu, Eva?
8:13 am
Mom

Hi jmc
8:15 am
EvaNadine

crock pot meatballs, a bread bowl filled with spinach dip, a cold, crescent roll veggie pizza thing, cheese + tomato toothpicks, veggies + dip, chips + dip, cookies...
considering getting a platter of wings, but i think we will have plenty without it.
8:16 am
Mom

sounds good. I vote for the wings (boneless)
8:16 am
Mom

what kind of dip for the chips, Eva
8:16 am
EvaNadine

i would love some wings.
i just dont want too much food...
8:16 am
Mom

too much? never can have too much :)
8:17 am
EvaNadine

you can when you have a small fridge. :)
8:17 am
Mom

true
8:17 am
Mom

although it is cold enough out, you can set it all outside in a cooler
8:18 am
EvaNadine

around here, anything left outside runs the risks of being swiped by neighbors or their pets...
8:18 am
Mom

or dear
8:18 am
Mom

now will fret about where Eva lives
8:19 am
Mom

phew, last row grayed
8:19 am
EvaNadine

no, its a safe community. but like all communities, its best not to leave anything you actually want to keep outside.
besides, we dont have much outside, living in a townhouse.
8:22 am
Mom

**puts away fret mode** glad to hear that
8:22 am
Mom

guess I had better get busy, be back at lunch time. ((Hugs)) to all of you
8:23 am

8:23 am

I just didn't want to say - but it seems news (and some incorrect news) got leaked anyway. To clear things up, I don't have malaria, but I am ill and in hospital. But I'm well enough to pick up a computer now, so that's alright. Hence my silence. Sorry if anyone was worried..

1 teaspoon ground oregano
1 teaspoon chilli powder
1 teaspoon ground sage
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried marjoram
1 teaspoon pepper

1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons Accent (MSG)

9:59 am

Well, apparently the malaria story was unfounded. That's all he said.
10:00 am

you can omit the last if you wish
10:01 am

Morning, all. Thanks for the update on NB, Molly.

I think DC was yanking our chain when he told us malaria. *eyes rolling*
10:07 am
MollyL

Well Judi, if that's true, I think it was a very unkind thing to do.
10:08 am
crosshair

if you omit the msg,add a tsp of sugar and a tsp of dried onion flakes..yummers!
10:08 am
Judi

I quite agree, Molly. Although, I have to give DC the benefit of the doubt. I think he was just repeating what he had heard from "the inner sanctum".
10:08 am
MollyL

My copycat KFC recipe says you are to soak the chicken in buttermilk for at least an hour before coating.
10:09 am
crosshair

some do indeed molly
10:10 am
crosshair

i oven bake mine cause i cannot stand immersing it in all that grease
10:10 am
MollyL

Judi, it reminds me of the time my son's wood shop teacher cut his finger during class. By the middle of the day, rumor had it that he had cut OFF his finger. By the end of the day, rumor had it that he had cut off his arm. So much for gossip.
10:11 am
crosshair

sometimes the "inner sanctum" is not a good club lol
10:11 am
Judi

Yes. The grapevine can grow to ridiculous proportions in a very short time.
10:12 am

DC is not pr*** to yanking chains.
10:12 am

lol judi love your no christmas cake icon;) i hate the stuff
10:13 am
Judi

Thanks, Crossy. It is indeed a vile substance that should be banned from civilized society.
10:13 am
crosshair

indeed
10:13 am
MollyL

Well then, Red, he was likely just repeating what he had been told. There were two occasions a few weeks ago where urgent requests were made at the flip for "certain people" to get into MSN messenger regarding NB.

I simply brushed it on, and baked. I think in future, If mixed with some soy souace and marinated for a bit and then baked in that it might be better...
5:32 pm
redturtlehead

Grocery store Stidgmere. they occasionally have it.
5:33 pm
dcseain

soy sauce paste -- you'll find it in an asian market is great for mixing with hoisin
5:33 pm
stidgmere

Oh. People fish for it here and it takes a sportsperson to catch one.
5:33 pm
redturtlehead

that would have been perfect. but as it was, I really like the hoisin sweet but not too sweet...
5:33 pm
stidgmere

Have you had sturgeon (sp) ever? It is a very good fish sauted.
5:33 pm

6:25 pm

I think the problem about talking about global warming is that most people like / don't mind the heat as much and don't notice the warmer temperatures.
6:26 pm
dcseain

we noticed the warmer here this year!
6:26 pm
Uneaixoise

no kidding -- all those 100 degree days in a row -- awful

Stid, Gran Mere was here earlier, but flitted away before I could chat her up with a comment ca va.
8:08 pm
Dorens

good idea stid, much better than me sharing what the eighth grade girls did today
8:08 pm
stidmama

good, Molly -- she enjoys playing, but often doesn't chat much!
8:08 pm
MollyL

Soooo...what did you do to the 6th graders today Stid?
8:09 pm
stidmama

okay. So you-all know that I didn't follow my own advice, but VOLUNTEERED to spend a couple hours each monday for the next couple months (before my next turn student teaching) with my friend who teaches 6th grade?
8:09 pm
Dorens

glutton for punishment!
8:09 pm
stidmama

And then I volunteered to spend each afternoon this week doing a pre-view of the writing elements they will need starting January?
8:10 pm
stidmama

So today was day three. They were NOT listening to directions and there were several projectiles (pencils, etc) flying around when they thought we weren't looking.
8:10 pm
stidmama

SO --- when the lesson was over, I let my friend know that I had a whole-class scold ... *grin* and then I let them have it!
8:10 pm
balletslippers

haha good for you, stid
8:11 pm
stidmama

Told them that I was completely aware they all understood how to listen to and follow directions; AND that tossing/throwing things was not just inappropriate but dangerous. They were SO SILENT! And they were very very well behaved until the bell rang. We'll see tomorrow how well it sticks...
8:12 pm
stidmama

I think I might have scared them a little...
8:12 pm
stidmama

so Doren... did I do it right do you think?
8:14 pm
Bugsaw

No one will know until tomorrow Stid. If you scared them into respecting you, you did well.
8:14 pm
stidmama

hey Bugs! (((hugs))) happy Wednesday!
8:15 pm

hi stid. I hope I didn't scare you just then by popping up out of know where

8:15 pm

i always secretly loved when a teacher did that. I didn't like my ill-behaved classmates all that much but I played along. Glad you scared some sense into them. Maybe they'll be better tomorrow.

8:17 pm
Bugsaw

Thanks ballet. I agree with you. I just watched one class brutalize a student teacher for 4 weeks before he got up enough gumption to call them on their behaviour. His last 2 weeks were much better
8:17 pm
stidmama

yes, Bugs, they are -- this is a more challenging class than normal. So I reassured my friend that yes, the kids were squirrely -- (but she is still losing it) *wicked mama look*
8:18 pm

I walk a fine line between maintaining order and appearing to be the enemy of Dorothy and friends... *cackle, cackle*
