10:47 am

My last name is Brockett. That creates a lot of material for limericks.

turkey
12:12 pm
BzznBea

Fot the past few years, we have gone out for Thanksgiving because it was just four or five of us. This year, I decided I would cook a turkey breast and some sides. Scaled down dinner...
12:14 pm
BzznBea

It was cheaper to buy a whole turkey than just the breast. The few sides have turned into, "But, we can't have a Thanksgiving dinner without ____!" Oy, vey!
12:16 pm
aebmusica

why not have the guest bring some sides or dessert.....we do this and it is fun
12:17 pm
BzznBea

LOL! What guests?
12:17 pm
BzznBea

Yes, that is the way we did when it was a extended family.
12:18 pm
aebmusica

sorry.....I thought one or two might have been a guest
12:19 pm
BzznBea

Don't be sorry.
12:19 pm
BzznBea

Just family with 75 years between them.
12:20 pm
aebmusica

I'd come and bring something but you live tooooo far away
12:21 pm
BzznBea

LOL! I'd love to have you. We have a table big enough for twelve when fully extended.
12:22 pm
aebmusica

ty.....but Im older than you guys and I'd be too worn-out from the long drive.
12:23 pm
BzznBea

I'm always taking baked goods to an elderly couple across the street. She told me her friend is making a chocolate pie and a pecan pie for us to have for dinner. I do not need to worry about dessert.
12:23 pm

12:24 pm

12:24 pm

1:53 pm

Where have you been?
1:54 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Well, doing life stuff, and also a little words with friends. But mostly have taken on a number of interesting though not lucrative commitments.
1:56 pm
aebmusica

good for you.......FIREWORKS!
1:56 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Working locally with a mayor's group to establish a safe injection facility in the US. Doing a lot of Group Therapy Board member stuff. Doing a dance class.
1:56 pm
hokie carla

well done, aeb. welcome back, kaplan.
1:57 pm
Kaplan the Magne

And I have a 24 year old at home trying to launch herself in a non 9-5 pursuit.
2:01 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Oh and I am getting cataract surgery because that is apparently why I can't read the fine print
2:02 pm
Kaplan the Magne

I have also been teaching myself to read Spanish- have read all of JD Salinger in translation and am using Babbel.com. I just lack a conversation group which is the hardest part. But enough about me. What about you?
2:04 pm
hokie carla

I have tried to teach myself Spanish 3 different times and can read it fairly well, but immersion is the best way. My dad used to be a Spanish teacher and offered to converse with me and we never really did. Now his mind isn't great. Also tried with a parent on the soccer team and my mind just blanked. :D
2:05 pm
hokie carla

Babbel was working pretty well but I just wasn't putting in the time.
2:07 pm
hokie carla

There's a podcast I listened to for a while called Coffee Break Spanish, and it's a Scottish guy, so you get that accent doing Spanish. He does Spain Spanish with the lisp and the other differences but will usually tell how it is in Latin America Spanish as well.
2:09 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Asi es. Puedo comprender los sutitulos pero mantener una conversación es un otro cosa, completamente. Quiero irme a Costa Rica o otro lugar. Babbel es OK pero necessito vocabulario mas personal
2:10 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Una otra cosa, disculpe.
2:10 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Buscare el podcast.
2:12 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Puedo leer Nora Ephron en Espanol. Busco libros que los se de memoria en ingles, y entonces los leo en español. Fray and Zooey fue muy fácil.
2:13 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Disculpe. Back to English. I got in touch with my high school Spanish teacher who said QUE SOPRESA!
2:15 pm
hokie carla

yeah, maybe I should read some books like you did. I am the worst at sentence construction. I keep saying I'm going to start watching a telenovela. They just talk so fast! One thing I remember is, mas despacio, por favor.
2:16 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Watch the Good Place with Spanish subtitles. I sit watching TV and making lists of expressions.
2:17 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Tele novas are too fast, but subtitles work really well. I sit with a notebook. A little obsessive.
2:17 pm
hokie carla

I need to watch The Good Place. I caught back up this summer and then haven't seen any of the new season.
2:17 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Knigge Knigge ruin everything you don't you can't ruin my couch
2:18 pm
Kaplan the Magne

I can't believe that my last post was me talking to my cat! I didn't know I was being recorded!
2:19 pm
Kaplan the Magne

I said Nico you can't ruin my couch and it popped up in the chat box. Is Rudy Giuliani on here?
2:20 pm
hokie carla

that is really strange
2:21 pm
hokie carla

well, I managed to get to 40 left without the list. gonna have to use it.
2:22 pm
Kaplan the Magne

How did this thing record my spoken words?
2:22 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Oh, I said w4. Is there still a PB?
2:25 pm
hokie carla

I see people mention it from time to time. was just going to ask and then it hit me, penalty box?
2:27 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Yeah, Penalty Box for saying words that are in the grid. It was sort of a joke but some people took it seriously.
2:28 pm
hokie carla

I don't think there should be any penalty to you for that one. This is a word game after all, hard to not mention words.I did have an infraction earlier today where I used a word before I realized it was here.
2:29 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Oh good. But it used to have treats in it.
2:58 pm
hokie carla

Well, 7 left and 9% on my laptop. TTFN!

Coming right up, Lynxxx. And good morning to you.
3:53 pm

Hello, lynxxx. How is Saturday so far?
3:53 pm
lynxxx

marionberry ios new for me...what do they taste like?
3:54 pm
lynxxx

Hi Scrabs - just up but it looks bright (not so much me)
3:54 pm
hurshy

it is a species of blackberry but has sort of some other berry flavors like maybe blueberry flavor mixed in
3:55 pm
Scrabbler

I see: Marion blackberry.
3:55 pm
hurshy

yes :)
3:55 pm
zoozzoom

Just looked it up and was going to say they look like blackberries.
3:56 pm
hurshy

the first night i was in oregon i asked my waitress what they taste like before ordering a dessert with them and that's what she said, kinda tastes like blackberry/blueberry combo
3:57 pm
Scrabbler

In August I pick raspberries and blackberries at the nearby park.
3:58 pm
Soodle

Err.... Might I ask the waiter for a (large) G & T, please? And hi everybody :-). Lynn - sorry to hear your day isn’t bright. Hope all is OK with you.
3:58 pm
lynxxx

Blackberries always take me back to when I was young, risky life and limb (or at least many many scratches) picking wild blackberries on a hillside while my Mum played tennis. Ann then for dinner, blackberry tart!
3:59 pm
zoozzoom

Here is your G & T madam.
4:00 pm
Soodle

Zooz, you legend!!! Chin-chin!!
4:00 pm
zoozzoom

I used to love blackberry crumble & custard.
4:00 pm
hurshy

just made the etymological connection between do5/24 for a bride and en5 for a college. i love etymological connections!
4:02 pm
Soodle

Wow Hursh. I could have looked at those words for a year & never made the connection.
4:02 pm
hurshy

i always used to notice them when i was taking french in high school :D
4:06 pm
Soodle

If there are any Netflixers here at the moment - can I recommend The Crown? It is simply enthralling. Season 3 with Olivia Coleman as the queen is superb. (And I wouldn’t be classed as a Royalist by any stretch of the imagination).
4:06 pm
zoozzoom

Phantom : Anorexia
4:06 pm
hurshy

i've been enjoying it soodle
4:07 pm
lynxxx

Looking forward to it...Coleman is fantastic...loved The Favourite especially
4:07 pm
hurshy

though when prince philip was "flying" the youngest son while they watched the moon landing and the queen said, "mind his head!" i thought, "your ceilings are like 20 ft tall, i don't think he needs to mind his head!"
4:08 pm
zoozzoom

And that is PB for me. sorry about that.
4:09 pm

4:10 pm

thanks Zooz !
4:10 pm
hurshy

yeah i hadn't heard about aberfan before
4:10 pm
zoozzoom

Such a sad event.
4:10 pm
hurshy

i researched about it after and was so disgusted. though the inquiry found that the NCB was to blame, nobody was fired or demoted, they weren't fined, nothing.
4:12 pm
hurshy

and the trustees appointed to manage the fund of all the donations people sent were fine with payments for destroyed property, but when it came to giving out 500 pounds to parents who lost children, one trustee commented that they had to first investigate whether the parents had been close to their children so they would know if they actually suffered from the loss.
4:12 pm
hurshy

that just made me want to vomit
4:12 pm
Soodle

Me too Hurshy. I came across a BBC documentary about the events. Absolutely mind-blowing stuff. How little support was given to the bereaved. Terrible.
4:13 pm
zoozzoom

Unbelievable!
4:14 pm
zoozzoom

I watched that documentary quite a few years a go. I am not ashamed to admit that I was in tears after.
4:14 pm
hurshy

part of the money from that fund also went to removing the other tips from the mountain that threatened the village, but eventually the government paid that back in, like 30 years after
4:15 pm
zoozzoom

That sounds about right.
4:15 pm
Soodle

Me too, Zooz. But on a lighter note, may I compliment you on your G & T making capabilities. De-Lish!!
4:16 pm
zoozzoom

Only the best for my friends!
4:16 pm
hurshy

i remember when i first joined babble, comments like that confused me so much, soodle! i was like, "wait are they actually giving them some virtual thing somehow or what?"
4:17 pm
zoozzoom

LOL That made me smile, Hurshy!

Marionberry jam is so good. Lived in Oregon since I was three and can't say I have ever had an actual marionberry
4:18 pm

And then it dawned on you that most of us are living in LaLaLand, Hursh, right?
4:19 pm
hurshy

4:20 pm
