6:32 am

rubyfoo

I'm afraid my interest ended with Henry Miller and Annonymous

6:32 am

crosshair

all the ladies want it for the hot bits is all:)))

6:33 am

Trifioso

the author knew what she was doing though - make the main character so characterless and readers project themselves in4 the story, and thus get totally sucked in.....

6:33 am

crosshair

like reading a porn movies,no story but lots of action

6:34 am

rubyfoo

so to speak....lol

6:34 am

sprite

hi Triffles! Is that so? A friend of mine is reading it and says it is really very good.

just like twilight the girl lead is a empty vessel any tween girl can dump herself into whist edward is described down to the last mole

6:35 am

Trifioso

mind you, this was before I met my love, so who knows how I would feel about it now?

6:35 am

6:35 am

sprite

my friend knows a lot about the whole sm world and she said it was very good, very believable chars.

6:36 am

Trifioso

that is exactly it, crossy. and 50 shades was born in a twilight fan forum, as a fanfic

6:36 am

sprite

so... I will go read it for myself, grin, and if I don't like it, nothing lost.

6:40 am

rubyfoo

my sister used to send me about 12 books a month using m-bags. But now the US postal service discontinued them, but I still have a surfeit of books and will happily share!

6:42 am

Trifioso

Good morning all. I just heard on the radio this a.m. that the US govt. is investigating Jeeps (Cherokees, Grand Cherokees, etc.) for gas tank problems dating back to 1993!

7:49 am

More recalls are in the offing.

Very similar, ruby. I really wish American car makers would get their sh*t together and quit making such defective cars.

when he was 17, my son was given an old pinto by his (my ex) father

7:51 am

rubyfoo

I couldn't believe it!

7:53 am

LOL! My dad gave my step brother and me a '77 Pinto when we were 16! It was a V6, army green. Fortunately, not the year that was prone to gas tank boom-booms.

7:53 am

rubyfoo

let's give them all father-of-the-year awards!

7:54 am

Yeah. My dad was more of an opportunist than a car afficianado. Plus he worked at a car dealership. So, whatever was cheap enough, ended up going home with him.

Everyone is forbidden from saying "donut" because I am on a diet.

8:43 am

ahhh! I was thinking backwards for some reason. i.e. that the grid would run it off the second N unless it couldn't, but it's the other way around, duh.

However, "coffee" is allowed... in mass quantities.

hi all, can anyone give me some salad dressing ideas please.i hate salad but am trying to eat more.i normally do a white wine vinegar olive oil and wholegrain dijjon mustard but could do with some more ideas

11:10 am

lilliann

i've used honey aswell

11:10 am

MollyL

Oil based or creamy?

11:11 am

lilliann

i don't like anything too spicy though.

11:11 am

lilliann

low fatter the better but i do like low fat creme fraiche

11:11 am

dianedecoder

Dressing:

2/3 cup oil 2 tsp. finely chopped onion
½ cup sugar or Splenda 1 tsp. Dijon mustard
1/3 cup lemon juice ½ tsp. salt
1 Tbsp. poppy seeds

11:12 am

lilliann

thanks diane, haven't got any poppy seeds at the moment but will definitely try that one

11:12 am

dianedecoder

One of my favourites and stores well in a jar in the fridge...I use it on several types of salads, but is meant to go with my winter fruit salad.

11:13 am

dianedecoder

The nice thing about poppy seeds is : you can enjoy them for hours as they loosen from your gums and teeth !!!

11:14 am

lilliann

really, dijon mustard with fruit...never tried it, will have to now :)

11:14 am

lilliann

saying that, or onion

11:15 am

lilliann

lol diane

11:15 am

aebmusica

lilliann... how about the german dressing? vinegar, splenda or sugar, water(almost equal amounts)small dose of oil , salt & pepper to taste and then (other a.dditives can be diced onions and/or poppyseed

11:17 am

lilliann

never tried it aeb but will add it to my list ty

11:19 am

aebmusica

u can also do a fruit dressing by adding mayo to the dressing, eliminating the oil and salt & pepper of the original german dressing.

11:20 am

dianedecoder

lil... the salad is only called that because there are dried cranberries, cubed apple and pear... but there is still romaine lettuce , cashews and mozarella chees too. It

11:20 am

dianedecoder

It's one of our family favourites

11:21 am

aebmusica

or instead of a lot of vinegar , add fruit jucie and mayo together and poppyseed for a fruit dressing ,,,,or yougert and fruit juice dressing

11:22 am

lilliann

i can't eat fruit with savoury....don't know why but i like them seperate

11:23 am

lilliann

thank you both for your ideas, will definitely try them :)

11:28 am

lilliann

i've just looked in my cupboard and found some sunflower and pumpkin seeds so i could add some of them too. i like just to snack on them

11:32 am

It must be specific to certain areas. We are at about a 50/50 split in my office. That can be a LOT of thank you notes. I have always heard notes go to people who make donations, send flowers or a mass card or who bring food to the house.

1:13 pm

Bur I've received them just for showing up.

1:13 pm

To me, attending a funeral is a sign of respect, that requires no thank you.

leighprefect

Thanks, Hydra. It's a strange puzzle today. I don't know what half the words mean.

5:23 pm

hydra

Me neither. I think that's why I'm finding it difficult. I just have to look up every new word, so it takes me ages to get through a game.

6:40 pm

jdd44

Bombay Gin

6:40 pm

periwinkle

thanks,need to buy some martini glasses

6:44 pm

MollyL

Bombay and Tanqueray are what I buy.

6:44 pm

periwinkle

ok

6:44 pm

MollyL

Having a party?

6:45 pm

MollyL

And good for you on your two miles

6:45 pm

periwinkle

just thinking, no one else here likes martinis. may just be a party of one :)

6:45 pm

HarryHood

missing the ar6 - is it terribly obvious?

6:45 pm

periwinkle

thanks Molls. will start back with the harder exercise class next week

6:46 pm

MollyL

No Harry, it's a weirdo

6:46 pm

periwinkle

but I really don'

6:46 pm

periwinkle

don't care to drink alone

6:46 pm

HarryHood

oh. can you clue it?

6:46 pm

MollyL

And Peri, nothing wrong with a party of one.

6:46 pm

MollyL

ar + Neosporin is ****ment

6:46 pm

periwinkle

well if you say so, Molls

6:46 pm

periwinkle

may have to make some guacamole to go with it

6:46 pm

HarryHood

ty moll. done

6:47 pm

HarryHood

gotta go put the kiddos to sleep

6:47 pm

MollyL

Yay for Harry!

6:48 pm

MollyL

Peri, as long as you don't make it an all day, every day thing, having your own little party can be fun. Nothing wrong with celebrating just cause. : )

6:48 pm

periwinkle

I can't stand people who have no common sense, especially when it comes to children

6:48 pm

periwinkle

Never, Molls. Just once in a great while

6:49 pm

MollyL

I agree about common sense and kids Peri. I see lack of it all the time.

6:49 pm

periwinkle

I just realized I have not been putting enough alcohol in my drinks :(

6:49 pm

MollyL

Hmm, I've never had that problem. : )

6:50 pm

MollyL

Unless you can free pour three ounces, it's best to use a shot glass.

6:51 pm

periwinkle

I have a shot glass but have only been putting in one ounce per drink

6:51 pm

periwinkle

3 oz in one drink, Molls?

6:53 pm

MollyL

It depends on what you're making Peri. Definitely three ounces for a martini.

6:54 pm

periwinkle

really? that sounds like a lot. so 3 oz of gin, a bit of vermouth and some olives? that sounds like a strong martini to me, but what do I know?

6:55 pm

MollyL

2 ounces at the least, if you like your drinks light. I make them strong.

6:55 pm

periwinkle

ok then

6:55 pm

periwinkle

will start with 2

6:56 pm

MollyL

The flavored martinis only call for one ounce because you are adding a bunch of other things to them.

6:57 pm

periwinkle

ok

6:57 pm

periwinkle

well,need to buy some gin and some martini glasses

6:58 pm

periwinkle

fireworks

6:59 pm

MollyL

Well done Peri!

6:59 pm

periwinkle

Molls, will let you know when I am having a martini and they we can have one together, ok?

6:59 pm

MollyL

It's a date Peri : )

6:59 pm

7:25 pm

uusue2

7:27 pm

uusue2

7:27 pm

uusue2

7:27 pm

wht

nm. Found it. Fireworks

7:27 pm

7:29 pm

wht

or4,4 is like the old airport in Paris.

7:29 pm

wht

It ends in a French article anyway.

7:30 pm

wht

The other or4 ends with the Egyptian sun god.

7:33 pm

jdd44

there is a second or 4/4 not the airport

7:34 pm

uusue2

that 's the sun god one (it has a double consonant)

7:35 pm

Hello. Annie. Today's grid was smooth sailing.

7:47 pm

Anniebrook

you are correct, jdd

7:48 pm

Anniebrook

BR, It wasnt that smooth for me but I did reach the shore

7:48 pm

BabbleRabble

jdd44

ty all - got it. Way past my bedtime but finally fireworks

7:48 pm

Anniebrook

7:49 pm

Anniebrook

(groan)

7:49 pm

uusue2

yay jdd!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

7:50 pm

wht

It would have been a lot harder finding them if they started with another letter.

7:50 pm

BabbleRabble

that is what I figured ... so I am thankful

7:50 pm

72 Temple Owl

hello min

7:52 pm

BabbleRabble

and after I found all the o words ... I could stop looking for them if I wanted to.

7:53 pm

uusue2

although there have been times that I have found all the words, and still catch myself looking for more...

7:54 pm

jdd44

Most of the o words in this grid I never saw before, made for a time consuming grid and multiple requests for clues. Thanks everybody. Sleep beckons.

7:54 pm

uusue2

night, jdd!

7:54 pm

Anniebrook

I stopped in to say hello to all you funny and clever people and now I must be going.

7:54 pm

72 Temple Owl

good night, jdd

7:54 pm

uusue2

and night, annie!

7:54 pm

BabbleRabble

Most times it is easier for me to find words if I face the monitor

7:54 pm

72 Temple Owl

i stopped in because i saw you, annie, unusual. hagn

7:55 pm

Minveryork

Goodbye jdd44!I will see you tomorrow in the chat log

Anniebrook

bye Owl..yes, I am a morning person but I was happy to see you.

7:55 pm

72 Temple Owl

aw, br, don't be so modest - you could probably find them with your hands tied behind your back ;)

7:55 pm

Anniebrook

bye dear babblers

72 Temple Owl

7:56 pm

Minveryork

Goodbye Anniebrook!I'll see you tomorrow in the chog

7:57 pm

72 Temple Owl

what did whoever watched dallas think of it?

7:57 pm

wht

I find that the ability to find words, and the ablility to type them in are completely different and unrelated skill sets.

7:59 pm

72 Temple Owl

ditto

7:59 pm

BabbleRabble

I type better, generally, when I use the keyboard

8:00 pm

uusue2

my keyboard is missing the j key, which limits my ability to type on it

8:01 pm

wht

How did you do with yesterday's grid, Sue?

8:01 pm

BabbleRabble

A grieving keyboard is problematical

8:02 pm

uusue2

didn't finish it, wht. I use the on-screen keyboard, or cut and paste.

8:02 pm

uusue2

so it is doable but annoying.

8:03 pm

wht

The j's yesterday were annoying, even with a full keyboard.

8:03 pm

72 Temple Owl

jadish

8:04 pm

uusue2

yes, I got that one, TO - should look up its meaning (unless it is a really bored radish)

My therapist says playing annoying games is a means to punish myself for past misadventures but wearing a hair shirt next to a bonfire is inadequate to extirpate the shame embedded in my soul.

8:12 pm

wht

I wonder if the Yiddish version of Enable has all the English words that are missing from this version?
