It is the 400th anniversary of Shakesphere's death just thought I would throw one of his qoutes out there :-)

It is a lovely day here but it has started to get cooler again.
4:10 am
rubyfoo

I didn't recognize it, too limited an education....to much artand science, not enough literaturerr
4:11 am

It's not very cold here and, happily, I'll inly have to go outside once, for the mail
4:12 am

It was from 'As You Like It' (Act II, Scene IV).
4:13 am

Sounds like a good day to do babble then, Ruby :-)
4:13 am

Thank you, I only know a couple of the plays but not that one
4:15 am

Yes, I didn't even light the fire, just wrapped in a blanket and smiling, waiting for my lunch to arrive (I nevr know what time; yesyerday it xas at 1:30)
4:16 am
zoozzoom

That was a bit late. Hope it will be earlier for you today and edible too!
4:16 am
rubyfoo

and after waiting that long, it was inedible lol
4:17 am
rubyfoo

Usually, it's good on Fridays, but the "mystery fish" was too tasteless even for the dog!
4:17 am

I would say oh thank you and what delights do I have today? And see what answer they come up with.
4:18 am
rubyfoo

I shouldn't complain, there is always something in it I can eat, even if it's not the main course
4:19 am
zoozzoom

True but you need to keep your strength up and try to gain some weight.
4:21 am
rubyfoo

I can't seem to get beyond the current plateau which is 40kg. Since it was as low as 38, this is better
4:22 am
zoozzoom

When my father lost a lot of weight they gave him the ensure drinks and he hated them but now he seems to tolerate them lol
4:22 am
zoozzoom

But at least we know he is getting enough nourishment as he wil not eat much of the food we buy or make him.
4:23 am
rubyfoo

I tried those, too, but couldn't stand them; I could alway taste the vitamins. "Princess Ruby!" LOL
4:23 am
zoozzoom

lol

This is one of those grids where I am not finding a word on a tile for a while then suddenly see a few more lol

4:26 am
rubyfoo

but you are much better at this!
4:27 am
zoozzoom

Ha! Yeah right.
4:27 am
MollyL

It annoys me to no end that Ensure tastes so disgusting (like snot, I am told). Why can't they make something nutritious AND good tasting for those who are having trouble with solid food?
4:27 am
rubyfoo

Hello, Molly.
4:27 am
rubyfoo

Hello, Molly.
4:28 am
zoozzoom

Oh I could not agree more, Molly. It baffles me too!
4:28 am
rubyfoo

Whoops.
4:29 am
rubyfoo


I try to make myself treat like asparagus, white or green, with hollandaise and an egg
4:29 am
rubyfoo

Fattening and tasty
4:29 am
MollyL

I think people are better off getting a Nutri-Bullet and making their own liquid nourishment.
4:30 am
rubyfoo

What is a Nutri-Bullet? And how do yousay it in French?
4:30 am
zoozzoom

I had to google nutri bullet lol
4:31 am
zoozzoom

It is a blender, Ruby. I just looked :-)
4:31 am
rubyfoo

I don't have a problem with solid food, it's just that most meats don't appeal to me and I'm not cooking much
4:31 am
rubyfoo

I have a blender, but Nutri-Bullet sounds much cuter
4:32 am
zoozzoom

lol
4:33 am
MollyL

A Nutri-Bullet is better than a blender. It has a high power motor and pulverizes food. Add some liquid (water or fruit juice) and you have a pretty good and nutritious drink.
4:33 am
zoozzoom

My father can not eat much solid food as his throat starts to close up if he tries to eat much solid food.
4:33 am
MollyL

It also makes great soups and sauces.
4:34 am
zoozzoom

I will ask my father if I buy hi one would he let us make him meals with it before I buy it otherwise would be a waste of £70 lol
4:34 am
rubyfoo

Fortunately, I don't have that problem, but I could certainly make good soups with my blender
4:34 am
zoozzoom

I love soups!
4:35 am
rubyfoo

Hollandaise (my favorite) comes in nifty little boxes, so I can slather it on eggs and asparagus
4:35 am
MollyL

I like chunky soups, but you can make some really good pureed vegetable soups with a Nutri-Bullet that would be ideal for someone having trouble with solids.
4:35 am
zoozzoom

Hollandaise & asparagus is devine!
4:36 am
zoozzoom

I am definetly going to suggest it to him, Molly.
4:37 am
rubyfoo

and they''re in season now, plentiful, French and inexpensive. I refuse to buy them off-season, when they comes fromSouth America
4:37 am
zoozzoom

definitely*
4:37 am
zoozzoom

Spelling is not good today.
4:37 am
rubyfoo

(sorry for the typos)
4:39 am
MollyL

Mine has paid for itself, just for the ability to manage fresh fruit. Anything that looks like it might be on the verge of spoiling gets blended into a smoothie and does not go to waste. I hate throwing food away. It's too expensive.
4:39 am
zoozzoom

Talking of chunky soups, Molly. I love gazpacho soup!
4:40 am
rubyfoo

Do you put yoghurt in your smoothies? Or even rum? (not for me, at the moment lol)
4:40 am
MollyL

While I find the flavor of gazpacho good, I have never gone for cold soup. I opt for salsa instead when I want that flavor combination.
4:41 am
MollyL

No yogurt (can't stand it...again, tastes like snot) and no rum. Just fresh fruit and fruit juice.
4:41 am
rubyfoo

My "house specialty" is gazpacho, made in the Madrid style. I only make it for company (made :( )
4:42 am
rubyfoo

I add the yoghurt for the erxtra calories
4:42 am
rubyfoo

I guess you don't like whey, either, Molly
4:42 am
MollyL

I have made some good daiquiris with it though. Especially when strawberries are in season.
4:43 am
MollyL

Ha! I have never been a person who needs "extra calories". : D
4:43 am
rubyfoo

When I used to make Spanish dinners, I would macerate the fruit (strawberries, oranges, lemons or whatever) overnight with sugar and brandy
4:44 am
rubyfoo

for the sangria
4:44 am
zoozzoom

This is making me hungry lol
4:44 am
rubyfoo

Like that, you can add the wine without it being too weak
4:44 am
MollyL

Good idea, but I would rather just drink the brandy than have fruit soaked in it. : D
4:45 am
rubyfoo

I leave the fruit, but the fruit-infused brandy is delish, the cook's treat
4:45 am
rubyfoo

I miss entertaining but lack the energy now
4:46 am
MollyL

I lack the funds to entertain properly. Again, food has gotten pricey. I try to make do with what my budget will allow.
4:48 am
rubyfoo

In my "salad days", after my divorce, I still entertained with great soups, no meat, fruit tarts, and my friends would bring the wine. I even made my own breat

5:07 am

It would make a great drinking game. Do a shot every time someone uses one of those words in chat. We would all be shit faced in no time.
: D
5:09 am

Especially for me! I can only handle about two pints lol
5:10 am
zoozzoom

I would have to have pints as I do not like shots.Although i do like southern comfort!

A low tolerance for alcohol is not a bad thing. Just a terrible, terrible shame.

7:31 am

Wow! What kind?
7:32 am

A Perception Swifty I think. Wanted to make sure it was no longer than 9.5 feet so it will fit in our vehicle.
7:32 am

My sister and cousin are coming down here with my great-nephews (my sisters grandsons) ages 3.5 and 15 mo so we will have a fun day of play. We will hike and play in the woods, go to the pond, etc.

mine's a Perception too, trying to remember the other name but it's 9.5 too. How do you haul your kayak?

Scrabbler

In 2011 I bought a 15 lb Kevlar Hornbeck hybrid canoe--sit on the bottom and use a double-paddle. So it is a canoe but functions like a kayak. MY friend bought one, so did my sister and cousin. They are made in the Adirondacks and are very popular.

I don't have a problem with dogs barking, it's what they do. But when it's incessant, it gets annoying. And most of the time the dog is barking to be let in and is being ignored. The owners are horrible.

scrab is their any connection between adhd and sleep walking in children?
8:14 am
Scrabbler

Well, I don't know what ADHD really is anymore as it is a default diagnosis for any child with school and/or behavior problems in the last 10-20 years. It is way overdiagnosed and overtreated.
8:15 am
MLFAN17

i know someone who has a child who sleepwalks is that common nowadays?
8:15 am
Scrabbler

But, sleep deprivation causes all of us to be inattentive, cranky, have poor focus, etc. Which is why adults drink the stimulant caffeine all day.
8:17 am
Scrabbler

It is not uncommon, MLFAN. They need to place an motion sensor at the child's doorway. Some people that sleepwalk leave the home. One friend's husband drove around the neighborhood, parked the car in a different place out front.

I no longer have a land line simply as a budgetary measure. The most inexpensive land line I can get here is $35.00/month plus taxes. that is for the most basic of basic. I revived a 7 year old Nokia cell phone. it does the basics but nothing fancy. It costs me 15 dollars a month to operate.

9:43 am

Well, at ten pages, I would do it up in the 5 paragraph structured essay format. You can repeat this as many times as you need but i think 3 main points with examples and 3 tight references supporting each point will eat up ten pages easily

and like any good avoider, I am here babbling instead. winning!

that is an excellent plan, crossy! will do.

Just tying the summary back to the thesis statement will eat up a page with that topic!!

But watch out for the horror of accidentally getting 11 pages - that is always rejected!
9:47 am

it is quite discouraging, as the prof is a huge jerk. I feel fairly certain that if I handed in a paper with two pages written at the front, and one at the back, the middle pages could be absolute jibberish and he wouldn't even notice

People who play this game have really been spoiled by Lickety. It will be a shame if he ever quits.
3:37 pm
JenMO16

that's for sure
3:37 pm

I think that would drive bichon right over the edge :D
3:39 pm

someone should be apprenticed to Lickety to learn the craft
3:40 pm
foamflower

Hi, All -- but especially Jen. I'm usually a lurker, but I have an answer to your question. Paste the list into a Word document; then use highlighter to mark the words you've found.
3:41 pm
foamflower

I've never figured out to use Lickety's bulk add and grab, so I use the same method even with Lickety.
3:41 pm
rururocks

I just memorize lickety and go from there
3:42 pm
foamflower

But Lickety helps a LOT because, say, there are three fa 4/7 words, and you have two of them. Lickety lets you know which you have.
3:43 pm
rururocks

I use lickety more than I like to.. but some grids are impossible without his list
3:46 pm
MollyL

Bulk Add/Grab is easy. Just copy your word list and then go to Lickety (top of the page) Click on Bulk/Add Grab and when it takes you to the bottom of the page, paste your words in the Add Bulk box. Then click on Add Bulk and all your words are in the Lickety list.
3:47 pm
rururocks

whew.. for a second I read that as Bulk As* grab
3:48 pm
MollyL

One ass to grab is enough for me Ru
: P
3:49 pm
rururocks

I'm a two hander myself :D
3:50 pm
MollyL

It's really pretty easy to copy and paste into Lickety's list. I have never gotten why people can't figure it out.
3:50 pm
rururocks

lots of us are computer impaired
3:54 pm
MollyL

Seems that is the case. I just thought that copy and paste was one of the rudimentary internet lessons. Apparently not.
4:02 pm
JenMO16

so can I copy molly's list onto word?
4:04 pm
MollyL

You can copy it anywhere you want to. It works better to copy it into an Excel spreadsheet. Then you can add your words as you get them. But I have a feeling that suggestion is beyond this discussion.
4:04 pm
JenMO16

ok
4:09 pm
JenMO16

E's are zapped, 88 to go!
4:16 pm
foamflower

Sorry -- somebody just stopped by. But I see Molly's advice about grab and drop -- and I'll try it when Lickety returns! Thank you.
4:17 pm
JenMO16

duh, I just printed the list and can now cross off the ones as I go!
4:18 pm
foamflower

And as to Word vs. Excel -- I assume either would do. But I am far more familiar with Word. I have a doc named "Babble" set up in five columns. When I want a new list, I just paste it over the old one, and the five columns are retained.
4:23 pm
JenMO16

so, what you are saying foam, is go to word, make 5 columns and then paste the list in?
4:25 pm
foamflower

Yep.
4:26 pm
foamflower

With Lickety, he already separates, say, the sh's from the sl's. Dee doesn't. So when I use her list, I put in a line break after each group.
4:27 pm
JenMO16

okay
4:30 pm
MollyL

I copy Dee's list into my profile and separate the word groups. I thought people knew that by now.
4:31 pm
foamflower

Aha! Good to know, Molly -- I'll use yours instead of hers!
4:32 pm
JenMO16

So what is the best list checklist to use in Microsoft Excel?
4:33 pm
JenMO16

in order to set it up?
4:33 pm
JenMO16

template
4:33 pm
MollyL

If you know how to make a spreadsheet in Excel, you just create your own. There is no template.
4:38 pm
JenMO16

ok
4:43 pm
foamflower

Just finished -- thx for the info, all!
4:43 pm
JenMO16

yeah, foamflower!
4:44 pm
JenMO16

ok, Molly, once you have your list on a spreadsheet, do you delete them once you find them, check them off?
4:46 pm
MollyL

No, you just know you have that word.
4:47 pm
JenMO16

okay, thanks

6:18 pm

what a pretty area C'nan!
6:19 pm
crosshair

We are lucky here in that regard. We are right on the southern part of Georgian bay and any fast floods just drain away into safe areas on the way to the bay. Plus, our "mountain" is really a molehills compared to your peaks.
6:20 pm
JenMO16

I'll sit over here and finish my last 32

Lickety is a nice help addition to this game. I hope people will remember that he does that free of charge and just because he is a good guy.

if they don't, I'm sure someone will remind them.
7:31 pm

As it was said, it is Australia's version of Memorial Day this weekend, so it's possible Lickety is away. People do take vacations from their computer from time to time.
