flosey -- started the day with a hospital visit to get a dressing changed. Idiot doc (I'll soon be rid) had put on a clumsy one with gauze which stuck and peeling it off hurt like hell -- said to change it every day.. Nice nurse at the hospital put a great and comfy one on which will be fine for a week -- said nurses know much more about dressings than docs do -- certainly right in this case!
12:25 am

jilli, that isn't the cat you looked after while your neighbour was away?
12:42 am
jillibus

No, flosey -- it's the beautiful burmese down the street at the corner who spends most of his time outside hunting birds and visiting my place.
12:43 am
flosey

ah, not as friendly!
12:43 am
jillibus

The next-door cat is dear little Russian Blue who is indoors most of the time.
12:43 am
rururocks

burmese..is it a muslim cat?
12:45 am
jillibus

The trouble is, the beautiful burmese is VERY friendly and has always been very affectionate with me -- wanting cuddles and if he gets into my house, follows me everywhere. Very strange that he bit me so hard for no reason I can figure out.
12:46 am
flosey

yes, that is strange
12:46 am
jillibus

rur, Burmese are the Golden Retrievers of cats in temperament.
12:46 am

I have never heard of a cat doing that. Do the owners know? Maybe heis is painof somesort
12:46 am

At least, this one always was.
12:47 am

The onwer knows full well -- I phoned her to get me to the hospital becuase I was bleeding all over the place

We are all baffled.

very weird indeed
12:47 am

12:48 am

has he gotten his rabies shots
12:49 am

The owner claims he is all fine.
12:49 am
jillibus

The owner is a bit in accuarate sometimes.
12:50 am
rururocks

distemper?
12:50 am
rururocks

Cats can be weird jilli and bite for little reason
12:50 am
Bugsaw

is there a test they can do to make sure you are well in spite of what the owner says?
12:51 am
jillibus

I meant inaccurate. My typing was too!
12:51 am
jillibus

Bugs, nobody seemed to think that was necessary.
12:52 am
jillibus

I am on strong antibiotics because cat bited=s can be very infectious.
12:52 am
Bugsaw

then I trust the cat was just in a bad mood, but it is still pretty strange to me
12:53 am
rururocks

maybe he was a canuck fan?
12:53 am
rururocks

and didn't like the outcome
12:54 am
jillibus

Cat was in a lovely mood until then. All cuddly and following me all round the house. I was trying to get him to follow me OUT of the house, having heard (from other neighbours) he had tapeworm. Maybe he was mad when he figured out what I was trying to do...???
12:55 am
jillibus

That Canuck riot was horrible.
12:56 am

and I don't believe it was the fans that caused the riot
12:56 am

they were just trying to toast the donuts in the police car flosey
12:56 am

No way was it the fans -- it was an organised group of hoodlums and some other drunken jerks.
12:57 am

ah ru, but yes, exactly, what jilli said
12:57 am

The news today showed a police car covered in sticky notes from people thanking the cops for trying to stop it and for being as calm as they were

argh... I try to make the end of a marriage work here and only now I realise it ne4s a different vowel. How silly of me.
4:27 am

ok I found the ar8. It is a past tense. It is an old (and obsolete) word for begone.
4:30 am
cool.girl

can i have an easier clue sprite
4:30 am
sprite

yes, but I will have to really dummy it down, because I cannot think of a good clue. Hold on.
4:34 am
sprite

first 4 letters:
mix up "of kingly birth" as in the ****L prince.
+ When you argue: you did so! I did ***. Drop the vowel.
that gives you the 6/24. Past tense for the 8.

yes, Frank worries about traveling out of the country for that very reason (gluten makes him extremely ill as he has celiac disease)
6:18 am
rubyfoo

my son thinks it's because US wheat is too processed. He thought in Italy, it was OK.
6:19 am
rubyfoo

happy, my real name is in the grid -- also, our dear departed babble friend, na*** boy
6:19 am
hurshy

wheat being processed doesn't hurt you, it just is less nutritious, so i don't see why you would avoid it if you don't have a medical reason.
6:19 am
uusue2

maybe he has an allergy? celiac is an autoimmune disease - Frank doesn't have the ability to digest gluten and his body attacks any cells that contain it if he eats any
6:20 am
rubyfoo

my son is a chub and perhaps he thinks avoiding gluten will help him lose weight? I have no idea....
6:21 am
uusue2

actually, the gluten-free substitutes tend to be more caloric than wheat although eating fruit or veg instead of bread might be a good idea for him
6:21 am
hurshy

if he doesn't substitute it with other calories, then yes, eliminating something that isn't nutritionally valuable is probably going to help with weight loss
6:22 am
uusue2

Frank eats tons of butter and sugar but is thin and has very low blood pressure and cholesterol
6:22 am
hurshy

hmm, i wish i had celiac disease then, lol
6:23 am
rubyfoo

you wouldn't think we were even related except he has my (big) hands
6:23 am
uusue2

no you don't = if he gets even a speck of gluten he has cramps and diarrhea for 3 days

what banana problem?
6:45 am
hurshy

there's some kind of blight that has wiped out bananas in some places and if it spreads as they figure is eventually inevitable, we will no longer have our trusty cavendish banana.
6:45 am

so i hope they find a cure before it hits the remaining banana growing areas.

Trif - in what way different? I AM surprised.
7:25 am

for starters, one of the British ones is about 100 pages shorter - forget which one. And very strange tweaks all around. I remember a "satsuma" in the B version becoming a "walnut" in the A version, which seemed weird. Tangerine, maybe....walnut?
7:26 am

Crossy, what is black pudding?
9:03 am
Kazzer99

local variations can includes hogs pudding or seaweed in wales
9:03 am
crosshair

theough...black pudding...ewww,thats almost as bad as the blood and tongue saussage my da used to eat
9:04 am
crosshair

blood saussage molly
9:04 am
hego

you don't want to know, mom
9:04 am
Kazzer99

it a pudding made with fat and pigs blood that is boiled and hen you fry it
9:05 am
crosshair

my da used to eat all that..i could never get past all the blood
9:05 am
Kazzer99

and i used to hate it but it can be quite tasty - specially with a fried egg
9:05 am
crosshair

and do not forget the toast fried in bacon fat
9:06 am
crosshair

and kippers...ugh
9:06 am
Kazzer99

hogs pudding is anoher type of sausage - much thicker and juicier than normal ones - you usually slice it and fry it
9:07 am
Kazzer99

ther is nothing wrong with a good kipper
9:07 am

crossy rarely does eggs "english style" like mum used to do for us..i find it too greasy now

9:09 am
crosshair

ruru, a staple in our kitchen for 20 years,was a can on the stove to catch bacon drippings for all sorts of cooking
9:09 am
Kazzer99

crossy - non sticj frying pan and a little water - ait till the water begins to boil and then cook you eggs like that - there is enough intrinsic fat in an egg to cook it without adding any extra
9:09 am
hego

bacon fat is not as bad for you as butter.
9:10 am
crosshair

we never saw margerine growing up,and butter was a treat
9:10 am
Kazzer99

no different with regard the calories and the saturated ness of it -
9:10 am

though i love to cook my over easys in a dab of butter still kazz;))
9:11 am

we never resorted to bread and lard in our house - my grandpa was a country man and we only ever had butter

I'm a quitter, and very crafty :)
2:03 pm

I do some crafts. Do you have a question?
2:03 pm
redturtlehead

I do! yay thanks Mridang and Wild.
2:03 pm
redturtlehead

I am making the quilt in my profile for an infant, who is due in december, and I should remind I live in Florida so it never gets that cold....I was thinking about
2:04 pm
redturtlehead

doing the front with 100% cotton, but maybe doing the backing of the quilt in a flannel, so it would be soft.
2:04 pm
wildcat17

that is beautiful. good for you!
2:04 pm
redturtlehead

Is that strange? will it work? I am not an experienced quilter.
2:04 pm
wildcat17

I've never seen flannel on a quilt. I would go with cotton all around. It will soften up when washed.
2:05 pm
wildcat17

clue for the ca8 please
2:05 pm
redturtlehead

My Mom made me several flannel ones, and htey were great in winter, she says they are hard to stitch...Mrldang?
2:05 pm
Bugsaw

my SIL makes all baby quilts with flanel on the back so it is soft for the baby. Just make sure it has been preshrunk before you use it Red
2:06 pm
redturtlehead

Hi Bugs, does she use flannel only on the front too, or regular cotton?
2:06 pm
redturtlehead

wild if i had the ca 8 I'd give to you.
2:06 pm
Bugsaw

regular cotton on the front but as long as everything is prewashed, it works out.
2:06 pm
redturtlehead

OK, I feel better, though mrldang is not weighing in...
2:07 pm
wildcat17

monkeyed it NM
2:07 pm

I wonder why my icon changed back to the one before the celtic cross I put up last night?
2:08 pm

2:09 pm

4:14 pm

oatmeal on a cold morning
4:15 pm
redturtlehead

I find that hard to believe ruby, but I guess it is true. Wow. In france, you would think bread and cheese...would be always fabulous.
4:15 pm
MollyL

Oh eggs is on my list of comfort foods. And yes, runny yolk and salty butter. Then there is macaroni and cheese, grilled cheese, a baked potato, oatmeal loaded with cinnamon, raisins and brown sugar...the list goes on and on. Even toast can be a comfort food for me.
4:16 pm
rubyfoo

I used to eat oatmeal with brown sugar, butter and sweet cream but suddenly, at age 64 I developed a severe allergy to it
4:16 pm
redturtlehead

mac and cheese. Yum.
4:16 pm

I am warming up crabcakes for dinner.

4:19 pm
rubyfoo

when I lived in Princeton, one time the janitor brought me a huge paper bag full of blue crab. I called over my best friend and a close Jesuit friend and the 3 of us covered the table with newspaper, opened a good bottle of French white and it was one of my most memorable meals
4:19 pm
rubyfoo

latkes, yes
4:20 pm
rubyfoo

(my first husband was at some conference or other at the time)

4:21 pm
suefrad625

me too ruby
4:22 pm
suefrad625

I never learned Jewish, but I can make mean Italian ziti's
4:22 pm
suefrad625

being raised in NY, NY, you learn so many different foods
4:22 pm
rubyfoo

did you see the funny article published by a Sephardic Jewish rabbi in Israel that Kate Middleton's whole maternal side is Jewish? Hilariously funny to me
4:23 pm
suefrad625

here in NC, most people just look at me funny when I name a food that isnt fried
4:23 pm
rubyfoo

my mother made the best lasagna (ingredients unavailable here) and veal Parmagiano
4:23 pm
suefrad625

no
4:24 pm
rubyfoo

this husband just likes spicy food, so I cook separate meals most of the time or just skip meals altogether
4:25 pm
rubyfoo

meals are no longer fun around here and the restaurants are awful
4:25 pm
suefrad625

4:27 pm
uusue2

Thx, molly, how did I miss that?
4:28 pm
MollyL

Ruby, I can't cook crabs or lobster. I feel to inhuman. I know what you mean about the sound. It's awful.
4:28 pm
rubyfoo

I once tried to cook live soft shell crabs and kept having to re-cover the pot as they were pushing the lid off
4:29 pm
suefrad625

not getting the ad8
4:29 pm
MollyL

I love to eat lobster though, so I just put the thought of the way they are cooked right out of my lobster loving self.
4:29 pm
rubyfoo

as I grow older, I understand vegetarianism more and more but then get the occasional wild craving for meat
4:29 pm
suefrad625

I love lobster, but I think crab legs have more flavor
4:30 pm
rubyfoo

it rhymes with the American system sort of
4:30 pm
rubyfoo

especially liver
4:31 pm
MollyL

ad 8...lemon and lime drinks end with *** + a duck ****ks + sometimes vowel
4:31 pm
MollyL

Oh gross, I can't abide liver.
4:32 pm
suefrad625

and the 4th letter is a big score letter?
4:32 pm
rubyfoo

I wouldn't eat it until I grew up except chopped. I make an aunt's old recipe with friend onions and hardboiled eggs and chicken fat
4:32 pm
suefrad625

4:34 pm
rubyfoo

whoops, didn't mean to shout
4:34 pm
suefrad625

miami is the place to love liver
4:34 pm
rubyfoo

why?
4:34 pm
suefrad625

but liver mush is like a patti, and then they tell you to cook it until you can put it on the bottom of a shoe and walk on it
4:34 pm
rubyfoo

I loved Miami, but mainly miss the food and the ocean
4:35 pm
suefrad625

because it is broiled and moist
4:35 pm
rubyfoo

sounds like mom's home cooking
4:36 pm

the water's so friggin' dirty and filled with floating debris, you'd be nuts to take a chance
9:45 pm

9:45 pm
lbdawger

stay away from moving water...heck they don't even do that when the roads are awash
9:46 pm
lbdawger

maybe you can find a twin on ebay?
9:46 pm
welki

what gets me is that people are 'outraged' that they're being policed .. but every time the rivers run high here, there are always rescues and, unfortunately, recoveries
9:46 pm
welki

i tried, dawg .. none to be had
9:47 pm
welki

i'll get used to the new one. i received a new spinning reel for my birthday, so the two make a nice pair ... going to take some getting used to, though.
9:47 pm
welki

and maybe, just maybe, the rivers will be better in a couple of weeks for my vacation ... and then a-flyfishin' i will go :)
9:48 pm
lbdawger

where you planning to vacation?
9:49 pm
welki

low budget this year .. at first, was thinking about heading down your way, but that involves $$$ gas and an out of town fishing license x2
9:50 pm
welki

went back east in may to see the kids ... so probably will just stay close to home, up at the lake and maybe a day or two south, near crowsnest pass
9:50 pm
lbdawger

either of those places will be nice to spend time casting and retrieving. :)

9:52 pm
wildcat17

it was an all-day thing. first went to my daughter's which is 70 miles away to fix her car. then once home was moving the rest of my son's stuff to his new apt when he called to tell me he'd broken his wrist playing basketball. got to take him to urgent care and everything. got home around midnight
9:52 pm
welki

dawg, we have good times where ever we end up. although different scenery is nice, it's about what you bring to the place, not the location (will make that my mantra in july *lol*)
