smom, you need Babble Expert
1:26 am
sammysmom

what is abbble expert?
1:27 am
jillibus

BabbleExpert is a wonderful thing Lickety made for PCs, where everything is on one page and there is a "Lickety Add" box where if you type one word it goes to both lists, and if you type more than one it goes to the chat. There are other goodies too, like a link to morewords above the grid in the Resources tab. It's free -- just email Lickety and ask for it.
1:29 am

1:38 am
jillibus

Time for the banana and milk
1:39 am
jillibus

We seem to be having an inundation of moths around here these days! I find dozens stuck to screens.
1:39 am
flosey

yes, me too
1:40 am
flosey

and banging against the windows
1:40 am
flosey

(unscreened ones)
1:43 am
jillibus

That cat who bit me is breaking my heart. He was at the living room window crying and miaowing to come in tonight. All the lights in his house are out so he can't go home. He spends most days on my deck. I can't let him in because I can't trust him any more but I feel for the poor guy and would love to be able to cuddle him.
1:44 am
flosey

that is awkward, poor thing, but I'm with you, sure don't want another battle there
1:45 am
jillibus

It wasn't even a battle. I was just walking toward my front door and he was following me and just suddenly bit my leg.
1:47 am
jillibus

That was on June 16 and it still hasn't completely healed.
1:47 am
flosey

wow, over a month
1:48 am
flosey

I just heard something interesting, for a mosquito bite, put a dab of toothpaste on to relieve the itch
1:49 am
flosey

just discovered an itchy bite - not mosquito, but tried it and it worked
1:49 am
jillibus

Nice! Must try that next time I get a bite, but mosquitos are rare here.
1:49 am
sammysmom

household ammonia also works well even witch hazel
1:50 am
flosey

thanks s'smom
1:50 am
jillibus

I have some of that AfterBite, which is mostly ammonia I think.
1:50 am
flosey

hi ruby
3:25 am

hello ursh
3:25 am
rubyfoo

are you entering spring yet?
3:26 am
sprite

morning all
3:26 am
rubyfoo

{{sprite}}
3:26 am
ursh

well we have had a very cold winter for Durban but I see the weaver birds are starting to strip the palm leaves for nests - so must be getting there
3:27 am
ursh

hello sprite
3:27 am
rubyfoo

I am surprised to hear that it was so cold in Durban. I thought that, somehow, the Indian Ocean kept the coast warm
3:27 am
rubyfoo

but no snow, right?
3:29 am
sprite

hi rubyfoo, hi ursh :)
What a nice image, ursh, those birds.
3:29 am
ursh

no snow in Durban - but 45 min inland had a big snow fall this past week which makes our wind cold and we had rain
3:30 am
rubyfoo

in spring, I put out combings from the dogs for the birds to use in their many nest on our property
3:30 am
ursh

we have also had pornographic monkey antics recently - sex on the roof - sex in the trees - lol mating season for vervets - sure sign spring is about to happen
3:30 am
sprite

lol
3:31 am
rubyfoo

we hop0e you'll post a video (only kidding)
3:32 am
ursh

oh ruby the vervet newborns are just the cutest - like little aliens
3:33 am
sprite

must be amazing to see all that right from your home
3:33 am
rubyfoo

barely any animals here (except maybe our neighbors!), just our dogs, huge goldfish and myriad (non-exotic) birds
3:33 am
rubyfoo

we don't even have squirrels or rabbits!
3:34 am
ursh

the monkeys are regarded as a nuisance here - they raid houses and swipe fruit and bread etc - but i enjoy them - they were here first after all and a house is just another food bearing tree to them
3:34 am
rubyfoo

exactly!
3:34 am
sprite

I like your point of view
3:34 am
rubyfoo

we have the most hospitable garden for our limited wildlife
3:35 am
rubyfoo

we planted things specifically for the birds, butterflies and other insects and are happy to share our fruit with all of them
3:35 am
rubyfoo

and having the fishpond gives them a water source
3:35 am
rubyfoo

there is a bat cave on the cliff above the house and the bats come down and drink from the pond as well
3:36 am
rubyfoo

they are beautiful and look like tiny black butterflies at dusk
3:36 am
sprite

we have loads of 'normal' birds and insects, lots of moles, some rabbits, the occasional hedgehog.
3:36 am
sprite

oh! Yes and bats. I love bats.
3:36 am
rubyfoo

it's so different from the UD+S where there are foxes and coyotes right in Manhattan
3:36 am
ursh

mind you it is quite scary to walk into the kitchen and find a large male monkey helping himself the the bread and they are quite cheeky and have huge fangs so you just back off and let him find his way out
3:37 am
rubyfoo

I am glad, sprite, I lvoe bats, too. I think it's why we have no mosquitoes
3:37 am
rubyfoo

I'm not sure if I'd like to have a monkey in the house, would probably ack off, too
3:37 am
sprite

that'd scare me too. I think I'd wait for him to finish eating, lol.
3:38 am
rubyfoo

we've had bats in the house but I am able to get them to fly out and once we had a large hawk make a mistake and wind up in the living room. I rescued her, too
3:38 am
rubyfoo

she was magnificent!
3:38 am
sprite

oh I am glad. Raptor birds are amazing creatures.
3:39 am
rubyfoo

but it's not like SA with its fabulous wildlife; the French have eaten almost everything
3:39 am
rubyfoo

I held her by the shoulders and when I released her she flew straight up. It was thrilling!
3:40 am
ursh

hmmm ruby the africans are also eating their way through the wildlife
3:40 am
beckyj

Good Morning All! :-)
3:40 am
sprite

rubyfoo, have you ever read the books by Mercedes Lackey about the bond birds?
3:40 am
sprite

hi beckij!
3:40 am
ursh

hi beckyj
3:40 am
rubyfoo

that is too bad although I did eat some mystery jerky when I was there, didn't ask what it was, but hungry is hungry
3:41 am
beckyj

Hi! How is everyone?
3:41 am
rubyfoo

hi becky
3:41 am
sprite

I am fine, and you?
3:41 am
rubyfoo

no, sprite, I'm writing down the name
3:41 am
beckyj

I am good thank you!
3:41 am
ursh

ruby we have a huge population of poor and as you say hungry is hungry and meat is meat
3:42 am
rubyfoo

that's how I feel. In my "salad days", I even ate horsemeat
3:42 am
sprite

so very true, ursh.
3:43 am
sprite

rubyfoo: that would be the Storm trilogy and the Owl trilogy, I think.
3:43 am
rubyfoo

I'll see if Amazon.fr has them
3:44 am
rubyfoo

47 words and best one, so far, is or6/24
3:46 am
sprite

I found one 8 by building on the bow missile.
3:46 am
rubyfoo

I didn't even see the bow missile and the 8? haha
3:47 am
sprite

he who bothers you
3:47 am
rubyfoo

but you gave me the ha8
3:47 am
rubyfoo

ty
3:48 am
sprite

yvw lol, you didn't need an extra clue, sorry
3:49 am
rubyfoo

ah, that was it, hahah
3:49 am
rubyfoo

I was looking for something after the missile.....
3:49 am
sprite

that was correct. Something after, something before.
3:53 am
rubyfoo

something old, something new.....
3:53 am
sprite

something borrowed something blue?
3:55 am
rubyfoo

the man is thumping around upstairs; I guess that means I've been summoned!
3:55 am
rubyfoo

big hugs to sprite and ursh, if she's still here
3:55 am
rubyfoo

see you later
3:55 am

What freaks me out a bit are the people I know who are also widows/widowers or have lost a significant loved one and are on dating sites three months later. I just don't know how they move on that fast. I guess some people just can't live without a man/woman in their life.

I picked up, what I thought was Gone with the Wind, at a book sale, had seen the movie but never read the book, turned out, I hadn't looked closely, it was actually "Scarlet" a sequel to GWTW, but by a different author, and just as long
10:25 am

10:39 am

and there are electronic "wands" that scan printed text and read it to yo you line per line as you move it across the page
10:45 am

and the ebooks are big items. people come in all the time for us to set them up for them. unfort. kindle hasnt reached us yet, though i hear they are working on it
10:46 am

the kidle is an ok device,but its limiting factor here is that it is amazon dedicated for material and it does not support e-pub files..which all the libraries here have adopted for thier e-book programmes

@ $1.30 per lit($5.20) a gallon we cannot afford a commute like that would be 25-30 dollars a day in gas:(

this is a country highway mostly going 90 km/hour but u can push to 98 km/h without ticket ( once ur 10 over u will get ticketted)...and is low traffic I could take the freewway that drives 100 km/hour but it comes out at opposite end of town from the school so the time u save getting to the city u lose and some getting scross town

ru, the squash I made last night was SOOO good. even if it wasn't the real recipe. I sauteed summer squash with the shallot, garlic, onion, added tarragon, mixed it with the carmelized leeks (which were divine, you were so right)
4:27 pm

sounds delish Doren
4:28 pm

<------has never cooked with shallots
4:28 pm

oh good. It's better with delicata.. but really glad you liked it
4:28 pm
Dorens

was a bastardized version of something ru had thunk up, but his was with delicata squash which isn't in season right now... and farro, which i must get soon
4:28 pm
periwinkle

what kind of squash did you use, Doren
4:28 pm
Dorens

they have a very nice flavor peri, should try them. nice in salad dressing too. (i used zucchini and yellow summer squash)

<--- Shuts up now

I will have to try that, ty Doren and ruru

Immense brain power... (giggles) we fooled you Molly

i had some couscous with it, ru, which is sort of nutty but i'm sure not quite the same. I will definitely try the real one when delicatas come around
4:30 pm

still glad you enjoyed it. It's low calorie too

quinoa is so messy to cook.. it's like beach sand it gets everywhere
4:31 pm

IMHO
4:31 pm

and farro is a pasta?
4:32 pm
rururocks

no ..it's more like a barley peri
4:32 pm

i like both, peri. and cajun brown rice from louisiana. have some of one or the other on hand in the fridge..
and yes ru, it is messy!! i try very very hard not to spill!

ok,will look for that too

Hi and bye Sue, Lil. And hi everybody else :-)
6:11 pm
herinfernallady

Hi Soodle.
6:11 pm
herinfernallady

I am sitting here trying to work out ways of actually having a proper laundry
6:12 pm
Soodlebum

Proper laundry?? Whats a proper laundry?
6:13 pm
MollyL

<-- Was wondering the same thing.
6:14 pm
Soodlebum

In my world, you bung the dirty clothes into the washer, if its fine out, you hang em on the line, if its rainy, you bung em in the drier, what am I doing wrong?
6:14 pm
herinfernallady

We have a laundry in a closet. The problem is it is dark and useless and irritates me. As we are renting I am thinking of ideas which are cheap. And as it is in the closet the wall's have to be easily removable incase of needing to replace pipes
6:15 pm
MollyL

Some kind of stackable washer/dryer?
6:16 pm
herinfernallady

We don't have a dryer
6:16 pm
herinfernallady

We don't have a dryer
6:16 pm
Soodlebum

That sounds like a plan, Moll.
6:18 pm
MollyL

So is lack of light your problem? Do they sell those stick-up light strips over there?
6:18 pm
herinfernallady

And opps and even if we did it wouldn't fit because of the shelf. It was badly put together and I am forever thinking of ways to make it better
6:20 pm
Soodlebum

I would so love to live my life without a drier. But this wretched country and the wretched rain..... even in July, I'm using the drier (and sending my electricty bill sky high :-( )
6:21 pm
Soodlebum

Guess I better trundle off to the PB now.... :-(
6:22 pm
herinfernallady

I find that using a good anti bacterial wash and using a clothes airer over heating vents in a sunny room works well
6:23 pm
MollyL

You can get retractable clotheslines to use indoors. I have one over my bathtub.
6:24 pm
herinfernallady

I used to have a curtain line on a hook from one side of the bathroom to the other at my old flat. I was not wanting to air my knickers outside
6:29 pm
Soodlebum

Non-airing of one's laundry is always a good idea. <----- speaks the voice of experience.
6:31 pm
MollyL

The only thing I miss about hanging things outside is sun dried sheets. Nothing like that smell.
6:32 pm
herinfernallady

Unless it is super warm there is no hanging out side as our line is on the dark side of the house
6:34 pm
Soodlebum

I'm lucky like that. If there is any bit of dry weather, I wash every shred of bed linen and hang them out to dry. Sadly this summer has seen precious few sunny days.
6:34 pm
herinfernallady

I have done the hang over doors of linen which is tideous
6:34 pm
herinfernallady

and my spelling sucks sory
6:36 pm
Soodlebum

I don't spend money on facials, manicures, or any personal treats. My one luxury is decent bed-linen. I really appreciate Egyptian cotton. (Such a low-maintenance gal, I am...)
6:37 pm
Soodlebum

<----- Batty old lady!!
6:38 pm
MollyL

Agreed Soodle. It took me years to justify buying decent sheets and I will never go back to the cruddy ones again. I am grateful for every cent I spent on my 400 thread count sheets.

Oh Carlee you have my sympathy. My dad spent his last months at my house (hospice) and the morphine sometmes wasn't enough. Glad he hasn't suffered. Unfortunately those sounds are with me even now 8 years later.

ty Molly. Is that even a word?
8:03 pm
rururocks

it is to Larry Flynt
8:05 pm

But po7 can't be the nastiest word since the superlative form would be even nastier. :^)
8:06 pm
rururocks

true.. but just for this grid..:)
8:08 pm
MollyL

It just furthers my belief that these grids are created by demented adolescent boys. As evidenced by how many times tits appears in grids. : P
8:09 pm
MollyL

And all the variations of the Oscar Meyer word.
8:09 pm

Actually, I see a lot of barnyard references in today's grid.
8:10 pm

tits... and arse
8:10 pm

I agree Molly - if not tits, teats. Every grid.
8:11 pm

I don't have to grow it, I have an amazing farm stand maybe a mile from our house.
8:18 pm

i give away the rest....or my kids eat ( but they grew up with home made sweets so sweets are so not a "thing") often times stuff gets thrown out..i imagine 1/2 that cake will still be in this house a week from now and i willhave to throw it out
8:19 pm

Farm stand is a bit of a misnomer. We got some papaya there tonight for dessert.

My old dog hung on way past the time he was in too much pain to live, just to love me after my husband left. When I finally got my head up enough out of the misery to look at him properly I knew what I had to do. But it broke my heart to do it and, almost a decade lader, I still haven't got over it, nor had another dog in my life.

Dogs and cats know when someone will be home in the next 20 minutes. Humans also have the possibility of knowing that. The only rason most of us fail is that there is far too much going on for us to use our instincts now. I still have my natural instinct, mostly.

Thanks for the warning.Hubby gets worried about all the bacteria.I never really though about the powder.
10:48 pm
herinfernallady

Just the stuff in those powders can be toxic. They smell bad when open. unless it is just hot water they are just curious little beasts

Min as we have the fur brats I have to be very careful with bleach. Pandora the white cat loves the smell of it.

Any way to change player name? Looks like r sparks is too formal. Couldn't think of anything else at sign up but now wish I had. Who is Lickety by the way?
11:27 pm
jesdraggon

below the tile stats, there is a link to lickety's babble clues. he gives the first 2 letters and number of letters in each word in the grid.
