mab

i mean shoah was what, eight hours?
12:53 am
cosdem

it was not 100% factually accurate.
12:54 am

actually it started because hatfield deserted his troop in the civil war. mccoy never forgave him and it eseclated.
12:54 am
jillibus

I don't have a dvr

Well, as I was saying...my uncle was married to a McCoy ( she was the only one in the family that had good sense). I remember her mother (gosh she would be way over 100 years old now). It seems that a Mr. Patton went to the hills and got himslef a bride....they had a passle (sp) of kids. I don't remeber hearing if they ever went back up into the hills. Actually, it wasn't quite safe then.

5:56 am
rubyfoo

I collect blue and whie dishes and pottery and, if you can believe it, I've saved everything I've broken over the years with hopes of making a Gaudi-esque bench before I die!
5:56 am
rubyfoo

so it's never a total loss
5:57 am
rubyfoo

have been shlepping shards around through many moves!
6:04 am

how very creative!! :-)
6:05 am

6:06 am

6:06 am

I have just the spot for it in the garden but soon I'll be too old to do it.... :(
6:07 am

6:07 am

6:07 am

6:08 am
rubyfoo

it is wonderful here now, nice and hot -- much needed after the rainy April and May
6:08 am
rubyfoo

and flowers!!!!
6:09 am
Uneaixoise

lots of roses about now, I'll bet, eh?
6:10 am
rubyfoo

many many. and everything is in flower at the same time because of the strange weather so there are roses, peonies, iris, campanula, geraniums (an annual cheat), allium, chives (in flower), pellargonium and many whose names I don't remember
6:11 am
rubyfoo

also, a wonderful shrub that was evidently always here which smells like jasmine but doesn't look like what I could find in google
6:11 am
Uneaixoise

sounds GORGEOUS!!
6:12 am
Uneaixoise

just searched google art for "mosaic bench" -- lots of beautiful examples!
6:12 am

and everything in shades of pink, rose, red, violet, salmon, blue and a little white
6:12 am

6:22 am

I was craving the heat, so I'm very happy
6:22 am

May was terribly cold
6:22 am

6:23 am
rubyfoo

this*
6:23 am
MollyL

Really? Wow. I've had my tomatoes in for over a month. Just got the first red cherry one yesterday.
6:24 am
rubyfoo

all the people who put them in at the usual time wound up with rotten leaves and collapsed plants
6:24 am
rubyfoo

my tomato plants are dinky
6:24 am
rubyfoo

last year, there were more than I could use AND give away!
6:25 am
rubyfoo

but, for the first time, we have a lot of strawberries
6:25 am
MollyL

And you will this year too, just later, that's all. Ooo, lots of strawberries is a blessing.
6:26 am
rubyfoo

they aren't big, but they're really tasty -- not like the awful ones around Miami which were big, beautiful and without flavor
6:26 am
rubyfoo

these are almost as intense as fraise de bois
6:27 am
rubyfoo

this is all such a treat for me as it's my first garden
6:27 am
MollyL

Yours sound delicious. I know the strawberries of which you speak. Big, red and taste like straw.
6:27 am
rubyfoo

hence the name, lol
6:28 am
rubyfoo

and then, of course, French sweet cream and sugar -- how bad is that?
6:28 am
rubyfoo

and the currants are almost ready
6:29 am
MollyL

I love growing things. One of my dreams is to have a greenhouse, so I can do that all year long.
6:30 am
rubyfoo

did you ever see the movie "Saving Grace", talk about greenhouses! starring Brenda Blethyn
6:30 am
rubyfoo

you would love it!
6:30 am
MollyL

No, I haven't seen that one.
6:30 am
rubyfoo

she has an amazing greenhouse.....which she puts to excellent use
6:31 am

sounds wonderful, rbud
7:00 am
rbud

well, the potential for ramps, I mean.
7:02 am
rbud

I'm getting excited, whee! I've always wanted the bedroom to be the living room, it's huge, in the front of the house, and has a big bay window, so it makes sense.

7:24 am

Annie: no, I have decided not to. The train trip is long for him. And the decider was that ruby's young Chow is still very wild. Terra is not comfortable with big young eager dogs. They have hurt him in the past.
7:24 am
sprite

wooooot lbd! Gratz and great!
7:24 am

Ruby said she's been spending lots of time in her garden this week. it will be all primed for your visit.
7:26 am

yes, looking forward so much for the chows. But even more to meeting ruby and husband and chatting IRL with them.
7:26 am
Mom

can't wait to see the pictures. 8 hours .... that is not long at all
7:27 am
sprite

I really hope ruby won't work harder now, just because of me! I will take things as they are and I already know I will LOVE the garden.
7:27 am

7:34 am

Sprite, I was just saying to sweetie, how it amazes me that you can get to France in 8 hours. 8 hours on a train here wouldn't get you halfway across the country
7:34 am
Flask1

Hi ((Mom))
7:34 am
Mom

need to find the blooming tree
7:35 am
sprite

no, the distances are so incredibly different, between Europe and the US. I am in Paris in 3 hours, then I must metro to the other side of Paris, and then in a little over 4 hours I am in Annecy. Really amazing.
7:35 am
Mom

it is amazing. Our oldest and his wife are going to Portugal in August and are debating if they want to take the train to Spain.
7:36 am
sprite

you know, whenever people here say: "I won't drive that far" about some distance in the Netherlands (max 400 km), I always say: "In America you would drive that to bring your kid to sport clubs, lol."
7:36 am
crosshair

we often forget the short distances over there,i talk to family in the U.K and they idly mention they are going to spain for the weekend and my mind goes "spain?,for the weekend??" the the distances kick in
7:36 am
Mom

that is the truth.
7:36 am
crosshair

indeed sprite,i once had a job that was a 3 hour drive each way
7:37 am

What amazes me is the fact that the U.S is so big...it has different time zones!!

7:38 am

yes, you too, crossy. Truly baffling for us. Actually, now with the Euro, I can go to rubyfoo as I would go to Groningen, for instance. Just hop in the train, hop out again, just need a weekend bag.
7:38 am

I get very confused even on here with it, sometimes!
7:38 am

Sweetie was saying that russia has 6 time zomes
7:39 am

7:39 am

whenever I can garner 10 minutes' more energy, I go out and pull weeds
8:38 am
rubyfoo

silly ruby
8:39 am
rubyfoo

did sprite tell you why I'm sprucing up the garden?
8:39 am
sprite

that IS silly, ruby. I will love the garden just as it is, don't go make things perfect on my behalf, please. Ok?
8:39 am
jmcnrick

so the other n is no9?
8:39 am
jmcnrick

no why are you sprucing up your garden
8:39 am
rubyfoo

not a worry, it's good for me to yank some weeds and deadhead the roses!
8:40 am

8:40 am

8:40 am

8:40 am
rubyfoo

sprucing for sprite
8:40 am
jmcnrick

yay!!!
8:40 am
sprite

yeah :) But I don't want ruby to overdo things. Trust me, friend, I will love things just as they are.
8:41 am
rubyfoo

it is lovely and warm here, much-needed sun after rainy and cold April and May
8:41 am
rubyfoo

I need to be out in the sun and might as well pull weeds while there!
8:41 am
rubyfoo

the currants are just starting to get pink
8:41 am
jmcnrick

haha i pull weeds when i wait for my sister to pick me up
8:42 am
jmcnrick

ooo do you make jam?
8:42 am
sprite

ok :) Just take it easy, ok?
8:42 am
rubyfoo

exactly, you can't make a "day plan" around weed-pulling
8:43 am
rubyfoo

I make currant jelly, blackberry jelly, ignore the cassis and apples, plum jam when there are some (not most years) but eat the raspberries, strawberries and figs as they ripen
8:43 am
rubyfoo

it makes me happy
8:43 am
jmcnrick

oo i would make apple butter....i loves apple butter
8:44 am
sprite

*drools*
Can you teach me to make jam, ruby?
8:44 am
jmcnrick

i have tried to grow figs a couple of times. . .i grew up with giant figs trees
8:44 am
rubyfoo

I love it, too, but didn't know it could be homemade. Will look it up. Generally, I give all the apples to the fellow who helps with the garden
8:44 am
rubyfoo

it is possible that the currants will be ready when you get here if the sunshine keeps up
8:44 am
sprite

<--- loves apples
8:45 am
sprite

ruby, you didn't yet tell me what I can bring for your husband and dogs.
8:45 am
rubyfoo

I thought the fig tree was killed by the last frosts (following the warm February) but it has made a lovely comeback
8:45 am
rubyfoo

I don't know if there'll be figs this year, but I was said when I thought it was dead
8:45 am
sprite

good for the fig tree! At least we will have something to wear af5 the orgies ;)
8:46 am
rubyfoo

did you think the herring idea was funny?
8:46 am
rubyfoo

sad*
8:46 am
sprite

I will see what I can do, ruby, about the herring :)
8:46 am
rubyfoo

when it was planted, 15 or so years ago, it was exactly my size and now it is very big and pretty
8:47 am
rubyfoo

it's a great idea, but probably a stinky one LOL
8:47 am
rubyfoo

I had dit placed in the warmest, sunniest part of the garden, against a wall with a total South exposure
8:47 am
sprite

I will only do it when they can pack it in vacuum thingies. I know our cheese vendor does that.
8:48 am
sprite

so... what to bring to make your husband happy? And your dogs?
8:48 am
rubyfoo

Burt will love that, too
8:48 am
sprite

ah good :)
8:48 am
rubyfoo

YOU will make them all happy; Burt is truly the man who has everything!
8:48 am
rubyfoo

and the dogs love company
8:48 am
sprite

ok, then just tell me if he is a sweettooth or a harty man.
8:49 am
sprite

harty? Can't be right. Someone who loves his snacks salty.
8:49 am
rubyfoo

put a dog biscuit in each pocket! they'll be in puppy heaven
8:49 am
sprite

ok :) Do they like to gnaw on hide or not?
8:49 am
rubyfoo

he doesn't snack :( and doesn't eat sweets. Do you eat sweets, though, I will make a strawberry tart!
8:50 am
sprite

I eat sweets, but nothing with cream. Most cakes are not for me. I will love strawberries though!
8:50 am
rubyfoo

Burt bought a giant-size pkg of chewy bones and the dogs turn up their baclk noses -- I will send them home with you for Terra
8:51 am

absolutely true, they are like huge cats in fur coats
8:52 am
rubyfoo

pls don't worry about Burt, Sprite, he is just happy that you are coming to visit!
8:52 am
sprite

maybe I will bring Burt a little book about dutch mills or something like that... would he find that interesting?
8:52 am
sprite

I am happy to finally meet him too!
8:53 am
rubyfoo

he loves the Netherlands, had a factory there many years ago, I think in Kampen [sp?], but he'll tell you his wonderful story about it
8:53 am
car.eeyore

Yeah! Babble Road Trip!
8:53 am
sprite

oh! Looking forward to that! Kampen is correct. Oh and the booze is spelled 'Jenever'. :)
8:54 am
rubyfoo

he says that it is said that the smartest men in the world come from Kampen
8:54 am
jmcnrick

I looked at several online recipes for apple butter and i hate all of them. . .
8:54 am
sprite

yes car :) June 19, all is booked.
8:54 am
car.eeyore

Hi jmc!
8:54 am
sprite

I have never even heard of apple butter, jmc.
8:54 am
rubyfoo

<-- had no idea of the spelling but used to drink it in Brussels all the time and in Amsterdam the little bit I was there
8:55 am
rubyfoo

I will look in my NYT cookbook for a recipe for you
8:56 am
rubyfoo

I will certainly show sprite how to make jam; it is really easy (except for quince, which is a fruit I only admire and sniff)
8:57 am
sprite

quince... isn't that that particular pe4?
8:57 am
sprite

so looking forward to be in the kitchen with you, ruby!
8:57 am
jmcnrick

basically you cook the apples within an inch of their lives and then add cinnamon mace ginger and sugar depending on the sweetness of the apple
8:57 am
sprite

being*
8:58 am
rubyfoo

looks like a pe4 on steroids, but has beautiful flowers (finished now) and gritty but wonderfully fragrant fruit. It makes a great jelly, but too much trouble for lazy me
8:58 am
sprite

hm... is that the same as apple sauce then, jmc?
8:58 am
TheLegend

or
8:58 am
sprite

thought so, ruby! Very particular fruit indeed.
8:58 am
jmcnrick

i have a quince bush but my quinces are sooooooo hard that i can't do a thing with them
8:58 am
sprite

hi Legend :) Happy or to you too.
8:58 am
jmcnrick

similar but not the same. . . brown and spicy and lovely
8:58 am
rubyfoo

does it have salmon-colored flowers, jmc?
8:59 am
jmcnrick

hi legend
8:59 am
jmcnrick

yes it does ruby
8:59 am
rubyfoo

if yes, then it's a Japanese quince and the fruit isn't worth eating
8:59 am
sprite

ok! Must try that once. I thought it was made with butter and I don't eat butter at all.
8:59 am
jmcnrick

i was told it was a flowering quince
8:59 am
rubyfoo

we have it as a decorative plant and I've just learned, to my delight, that it is invasive and just had several babies around the garden
9:00 am
jmcnrick

brb
9:00 am
sprite

awww baby quinces. Would they grow in the netherlands?
9:00 am
rubyfoo

the regular quince has very large pink flowers that look a lot like roses and large pe4-shape fruit which is light green shading to bronze
9:01 am
rubyfoo

also, it is a tree and the Japanese quince is more bush-like
9:01 am
rubyfoo

the holly also had two babies this year but they're thorny
9:01 am
rubyfoo

renet
9:02 am
bichon

my quince produces flowers, but the fruit mostly disappear. Probably eaten my something
9:02 am

mornin' everyone
9:03 am
rubyfoo

Rufie just strolled into the studio and stood on Ruby's tail; she is now whining and snarling at him
9:03 am
rubyfoo

but she never hurts him
9:03 am
sprite

aw poor ruby.
9:04 am
rubyfoo

I think she loves him, though, and they often sleep very close to each other
9:04 am
rubyfoo

the snarling is for my benefit, I think
9:04 am
car.eeyore

Ahhh..pack play!
9:04 am
sprite

yeah, sounds good. And by snarling she warns rufie that he must behave. It's only for the good.
9:05 am
bichon

my two go at each other too. But, it's just play fighting
9:05 am
rubyfoo

I would love to see her reaction to Marco and Polo. It would be a riot; Rufie would hinke they were fluffy toys and Ruby would probably just slink away
9:05 am
rubyfoo

9:05 am
rubyfoo

I guess I'm the alpha dog around here
9:06 am

People think that adding something to liquor makes them "cocktails" and not straight booze, which therefore makes them "not an alcoholic" since the common misconception is that only alcoholics drink straight booze.

It's okay Nef. Your secret is safe with us. Next time you post something like "oh no, I'm too nice to do something like that"...Hego and I will just chuckle quietly to ourselves.
12:39 pm

Hi Hokie
12:42 pm
Nef

hego, as a nurse, you probably have plenty of stories; but you just won't talk about them because they were about your patients. :-)
12:42 pm
Nef

hi hokie. I started out slow, went quickly for a while but am now almost stopped at 85 words done.
12:43 pm

12:43 pm

1:20 pm
hokie carla

I'm hitting the list.
1:22 pm

darnit, I always miss a certain ae4! I would consider it a prefix along with nano, but I guess it isn't.
1:22 pm

Yeah, I'm going to too soon. I swear there aren't any more than 104 words in this grid
1:23 pm
hego

I believe Nef
1:28 pm
Nef

well, now that I've lsted, hego; there are a few more words; so don't believe me
1:29 pm
hego

: )
1:30 pm
hokie carla

yes, I found a few right off the bat that I knew to be real words and should have gotten.
1:30 pm
hokie carla

such as, the 9 letter.
1:31 pm
hego

the 9 is a fish
1:32 pm
hego

meaning we expected it to be a lot harder
1:32 pm
hokie carla

lol, thx for clarifying. I was like, a fish?
1:33 pm
Nef

yep. sometimes those compound words can fool you
1:33 pm

There is a lot of "Babble jargon" here. The monkeys thing is my least favorite.
1:38 pm

hokie, not everyone uses that term, so don't think that you were gone too long.
1:39 pm
Nef

I love my monkeys, Molly! Why don't you like that term?
1:39 pm
MollyL

Because it is SO over done here.
1:40 pm
hego

started with trying to monkey the words.
1:40 pm
hokie carla

what is that one exactly? monkey typing?
1:40 pm
hego

as in monkeying around, I guess.
1:41 pm
hego

when you can't get a word so you try different combinations.
1:41 pm
hokie carla

I just thought it meant a monkey could just type around and find words.
