periwinkle

hi all

8:34 am

BzznBea

If you rehydrated them, you could eat them.

8:35 am

MollyL

I just read up on uses for dehydrated oranges. You can put them in tea, sangria or mulled wine. Some people make sauces for things like pancakes with them.

8:36 am

MollyL

Orange, cinnamon and cloves is a great smell at Christmas time.

8:39 am

BzznBea

Mmm! Sangria...

8:42 am

BzznBea

Sorry they aren't gluten free.

8:46 am

hokie carla

I'm used to it

8:46 am

BzznBea

I thought the same thing about ac8, Molly.

8:46 am

hokie carla

luckily cinnamon rolls aren't my favorite. I mean, I could eat them but I can also easily pass.

8:47 am

MLFAN17

clue for the ac8 if I can find it without looking at the grid

8:47 am

BzznBea

My daughter has been making GF donuts in the airfryer.

8:47 am

MLFAN17

I would never pass on a cinnamon roll

8:48 am

BzznBea

ac8 is one who is sort of an ac5/12

8:49 am

BzznBea

Yes, I believe she uses almond flour.

8:56 am

BzznBea

8:56 am

hokie carla

hokie carla

I had a feeling about c's and obscure. how many are scottish?

9:01 am

MollyL

9:02 am

MollyL

I don't know about Scottish. One is French.

9:08 am

penquis

the dictiornary is more modern than Enable....not surprisingly....

9:08 am

penquis

of course, i can't spell today....may be part of my problem....

9:09 am

hokie carla

yeah, molly & I found a thing about enable one day. it was a word list made in the early 2000s by some smug people who thought it was the best thing ever.

9:11 am

aebmusica

well......it does help every once in awhile.

9:13 am

BzznBea

12:45 pm

hurshy

i feel like that happens a lot with culinary words

12:46 pm

1:13 pm

hokie carla

this is a tough one today.

1:14 pm

Trifioso

its the endless trap of babble - little grids make you think you can burn right through them, big grids make you think "oh boy, this will be fun!" and the day disappears....

1:14 pm

hokie carla

yep

1:17 pm

cybernan

ch 7/40 please?

1:17 pm

hurshy

which is nothing compared to the endless trap of cats who sit on you so you don't want to get up and disturb them

1:17 pm

Trifioso

i say I dont like cats, because I am totally, utterly allergic to them - but secretly i love them

1:19 pm

1:24 pm

cybernan

1:24 pm

hokie carla

I'm not using it

1:24 pm

hokie carla

1:25 pm

hurshy

eps--

1:25 pm

hokie carla

1:26 pm

hurshy

lol

1:26 pm

hokie carla

and FTR, I use those in baths all the time, was just having a mental blank on the last letter.

1:26 pm

1:27 pm

cybernan

1:28 pm

hurshy

1:28 pm

hokie carla

well, I'll be. thanks

1:29 pm

hokie carla

ooh, found ts6/18

1:29 pm

cybernan

*!*~*!* thanks for the help :)

1:29 pm

Trifioso

1:30 pm

Trifioso

1:30 pm

hokie carla

ok, let me see, trif

1:30 pm

cybernan

^5

1:31 pm

hokie carla

there is a so4/4 that if you add the t and then make it plural, you will have ts 6/18

1:31 pm

cybernan

there are two ts 6's middle vowel different

1:32 pm

hokie carla

yes, that accounts for the point differential

1:32 pm

hokie carla

the ts 6/21 is if you add a t to tom cruise/katie holmes daughter's name and make it plural

1:32 pm

cybernan

do you know any french trif?

1:33 pm

hokie carla

both of them are close to the voice on iPhone but with a different vowel

1:33 pm

Trifioso

got them! thank you!

1:33 pm

cybernan

t + french mouse and drop one of the first 2 vowels

1:33 pm

Trifioso

im going to take a break when i hit 180....have major sewing to do, totally avoiding it

1:33 pm

cybernan

1:34 pm

Trifioso

1:34 pm

cybernan

costume party?

1:34 pm

hokie carla

I am in the middle of making some dinner scarves (or adult bibs) for my dad, who has parkinsons. I hope he is not offended. I don't think he will be.

1:35 pm

Trifioso

I struggle MIGHTILY with making patterns from scratch, so this is a real challenge. It's SUCH a gorgeous dress, omg....I hope to do it even some justice!

1:35 pm

Trifioso

that is so kind, hokie!

1:35 pm

Trifioso

no, cybernan - the school where i am the costumer is doing a production of Dracula

1:35 pm

cybernan

hokie carla

I am giving them to him for his birthday in a couple of weeks. he really doesn't need anything since he just sits around all day and reads. hard to think of something. I had seen these things and then my mom suggested I make some, so I am.

when I watch my in laws putting anything valuable in a shipping container to keep it safe, it's not worth it, you can't enjoy it... and the flooding would bring me to my knees in tears

4:09 pm

BzznBea

Yes, I know. We lived on the "high" side of our KS community. Lots of flooding two-three times a year. Finally they rerouted the large Walnut and every one is happy.

4:12 pm

marksdolly

that would be so disheartening

4:16 pm

BzznBea

Part of m home town was wipe out by a tornado in 1958. I think I would rather have everything disappear in a tornado than to dela with what is left from a flood.
