8:04 am

BzznBea

I'm glad it is new furnace day, lindy. You will be warm a cozy soon.

8:04 am

BzznBea

I learned about growinf saffron last week. Very interesting.

8:08 am

aslindy

what kind of flower does it come from bea?

8:09 am

BzznBea

It is the saffron crocus.

8:09 am

aslindy

right. someone in one of the facebook gardening groups I'm in posted info about it a couple weeks ago.

8:10 am

BzznBea

Each flower only produces 3 of the tendrils.

8:13 am

aslindy

I didn't watch their video, but I might have to look into it

8:14 am

BzznBea

I was in a webinar with a women living in the mountains of North Carolina who grows all sorts of plants for the spices.

8:14 am

welki

hi, everyone

8:15 am

aslindy

hi welki

8:15 am

BzznBea

Morning, welki.

8:16 am

8:17 am

Sugrraleona

8:17 am

BzznBea

I'm thinking about growing ginger in the demonstration garden this year.

8:17 am

dan2bit

MollyL

Ooo, I would love to have fresh ginger from a plant. I am currently trying to sprout an indoor batch of chives.

8:28 am

BzznBea

This woman grew her ginger in deep box in her house

8:28 am

hokie carla

I guess omittal is not found in the dictionary because it's actually omission. need more coffee.

8:29 am

BzznBea

Hey, it sounds lik a word to me, Carla

8:29 am

hokie carla

8:30 am

hokie carla

phantom zarf

8:30 am

welki

i don't have room for a garden, but would like to give microgreens a try - i do love sprouts

8:30 am

BzznBea

Microgreens are super easy to grow.

8:31 am

BzznBea

Especially sunflower

8:32 am

welki

i'd think that the one thing that's super important is to buy good quality seeds, not cheap out when you're going for flavor

8:33 am

BzznBea

Yes, and they have mats you grow them on instead of soil.

8:33 am

welki

i like that, once you snip the greens, you can reuse the growing medium, leave the roots behind for "compost"

8:34 am

welki

i'll look for those mats - but maybe just a good organic potting soil would work (and be cheaper)

8:35 am

hokie carla

ooh, just finished the big F on first pass

8:36 am

MLFAN17

MollyL

Well, at least I used punctuation and a capital letter

8:47 am

8:48 am

MLFAN17

BzznBea

All C's are normal, Carla.

8:52 am

hokie carla

ok, well the 10/11 is to make a group ready for war, but spell it like you're british

8:52 am

hokie carla

I actually did type an anagram of the word earlier

8:53 am

MollyL

I would like to register a complaint about fe5 and fe7

8:53 am

dan2bit

I dunno. the co6/7 that rhymes with livestock food isn't all that normal

8:53 am

hokie carla

ah, it was the 7. I guessed at the 6 and didn't try more.

8:54 am

hokie carla

what about fe6, molly?

8:54 am

BzznBea

Ah..The fisherman.

8:54 am

hokie carla

oh, top row gray!

8:54 am

BzznBea

Yes, those were weird too.

8:55 am

MLFAN17

8:55 am

hokie carla

phantom saffron

8:55 am

BzznBea

Carla just clued it, mlf.

8:55 am

dan2bit

chappy chanukah to all those celebrating tonight

8:56 am

hokie carla

oh, yes indeed

8:57 am

hokie carla

with all the men words, railmen isn't in the dicitonary??!

8:58 am

Uneaixoise

Tx for 10 and 11!!

8:59 am

MollyL

Railmen is in the dictionary. It's not on the ancient, obsolete Enable word list though.

9:00 am

hokie carla

yeah, I noticed my computer spellcheck left it alone when I typed it here. but more arbitrariness from enable.

9:00 am

hokie carla

because you know it was a word when enable was made

9:01 am

MollyL

Contrary, arbitrary, black socks and sandal wearing word nerds.

9:05 am

dan2bit

can I have stats for the 8 that's not 2nd amendment related?

9:06 am

phaeton

se8/45

9:09 am

rururocks

(wears tennis shoes and white socks)

9:09 am

hokie carla

(but still a word nerd)

9:09 am

BzznBea

Thanks, phae

9:09 am

hokie carla

hey ru, I finally made it to pink on serpentine

9:09 am

phaeton

yw Bea

9:09 am

rururocks

nice hokie

9:10 am

MollyL

Good luck with the se8, it's a doozy

9:10 am

BzznBea

I was wondering why Mr. Bea always wore white socks.

9:10 am

BzznBea

He said, "Because that's what you buy."

9:10 am

MollyL

Sandals and socks of any color is ten shades of wrong

9:10 am

hokie carla

8/45 means all one point tiles, right?

9:10 am

rururocks

colored socks with dress shoes are appropriate, white socks no

9:11 am

LuvWordGames

no, that would be 8/40

9:11 am

BzznBea

Except the last letter. carla. It's 2 pts.

9:11 am

rururocks

Mr. Bea doesn't buy his own clothes?

9:12 am

hokie carla

ah, yes. thanks for setting me straight Luv. (I know I could've done the math but am lazy)

9:12 am

MollyL

Oh wow, see if you can guess what the last letter is

9:12 am

hokie carla

well, it could be C or M

9:12 am

BzznBea

No, he doesn't dress himself, ru.

9:13 am

MollyL

Highly unlikely that it is c or d considering their placement and the fact that the word is 8 letters

9:13 am

hokie carla

you could make c work with 8 letters.

9:14 am

MollyL

For what word that starts with se?

9:14 am

hokie carla

if there was a word

9:14 am

hokie carla

seralioc is 8 letters ending with c

9:14 am

MollyL

Oh, Mr. Bea is high maintenance.

9:15 am

MollyL

Sorry, for what word IN THE GRID that is 8 letters?

9:15 am

BzznBea

That's what he says about me. Molly.

9:15 am

hokie carla

that is in the grid! I'm saying if you don't know the word you could make some work to fit.

9:15 am

MollyL

That is a real word. Seralioc? Really?

9:16 am

hokie carla

no, it's called monkeying here

9:16 am

rururocks

wow. bea.. that's a little weird to me I gotta say

9:16 am

MollyL

Sorry Bea, but any man who needs a woman to buy his clothes wins the high maintenance award.

9:17 am

hokie carla

one of my friends packs her husband's suitcase for trips. I always found that really weird.

9:17 am

dan2bit

so in enable land you can remove the sodium chloride but you can't add it again

9:17 am

hokie carla

already tried that too, dan

9:18 am

BzznBea

I just buy his socks and underwear because that's what he gets every year for Christmas.

9:18 am

BzznBea

I always re sodium chloride.

9:18 am

hokie carla

still trying to get that se8. is it related to the se6 at all?

9:19 am

MollyL

Whoo hoo! Socks and underwear for Christmas! That will keep one awake nights with anticipation. So why is he getting an air fryer this year?

9:19 am

rururocks

yes

9:19 am

mattygroves

I have zero idea what *I* want for Christmas. On the other hand, thanks to the internet I've done pretty much all of my Christmas shopping

9:19 am

BzznBea

Remove the last letter of the 6 and replace it with Tiny boy in a Christmas story.

9:19 am

rururocks

the yes was for hokie

9:19 am

hokie carla

I gave the boys a bunch of socks one year and the oldest was super happy. they do their own laundry and aren't the best at pairing socks, plus they had a lot of old ones.

9:19 am

dan2bit

thanks Bzzn that was my last!

9:20 am

hokie carla

good job, matty! I have Xmas list shopping on my to do list for today.

9:20 am

hokie carla

I swear I tried that for se8

9:25 am

BzznBea

Top three rows grey.

9:25 am

rururocks

top five rows grey

9:26 am

BzznBea

Congrats, ru.

9:26 am

hokie carla

haha ru

9:26 am

hokie carla

well done

9:26 am

hokie carla

finally finished first pass here. 25 to go.

9:27 am

BzznBea

I still haven't got to the last two rows.

9:29 am

hokie carla

finally remembered my missing z's

9:30 am

mattygroves

I only have 1 Z. Not seeing any others....

9:30 am

BzznBea

The coins?

9:30 am

hokie carla

yes, former country, but coins, matty

9:31 am

hokie carla

btw, I just read Michael Crichton's Congo and enjoyed it a lot. it was way better than the movie (as books always are).

9:31 am

BzznBea

I do like Crichton.

9:32 am

hokie carla

mr. BF has read most of his but that might've been my first. actually, no we listened to audiobook of Jurassic Park a few years ago.

9:33 am

hokie carla

I mean mr. homie

9:33 am

hokie carla

mr. BF is from my other place ;)

9:33 am

mattygroves

Ah hah - thank you kindly!

9:35 am

hokie carla

ah, my last D is the classic de5 that I always miss

9:36 am

rururocks

that's a mousey statement

9:37 am

mattygroves

Squeak

9:38 am

MollyL

The book Congo was way better than the movie.

9:40 am

10:04 am

HarryHood

10:04 am

MollyL

I was an Archie comic book junkie

10:05 am

HarryHood

did you order brine shrimp from the back cover?

10:05 am

MollyL

Damn, between Bea and Carla, who needs to look for words?

10:06 am

MollyL

No Harry, I never had any interest in the brine shrimp.

10:06 am

MollyL

AKA Sea monkeys. I was intrigued with the x-ray specs though.

10:10 am

HarryHood

40!

10:11 am

hokie carla

LOL, I did do the sea monkeys.

10:12 am

hokie carla

I wanted to go to the grocery store with my mom every time she went so I could get a new Archie comic book. I still have quite a few!

10:12 am

hokie carla

10:16 am

MollyL

What do you do with the Archie comic books of your youth? Or do you just hoard stuff?

10:16 am

BzznBea

Yes, I did too for fireworks. I'm heading to the grocery stores. Should be fun with a cane...

10:25 am

mattygroves

Were I go to the list, anyone want to bet on how many no-brainers/fish I've missed (I have 39 words left)? I'm always annoyed with myself when I see I've missed dead obvious words (or plurals or past tenses)

10:28 am

MollyL

I don't know why you get annoyed with yourself. We all miss obvious words.

10:31 am

marksdolly

good morning to you all!

10:33 am

hokie carla

matty, I think there would be a lot of no-brainers in 39 left

10:34 am

mattygroves

Thanks for the vote of confidence Carla ;) But I suspect you're right

10:34 am

hokie carla

molly, I do have a problem throwing things away from my youth

10:34 am

hokie carla

dolly!

10:34 am

hokie carla

LOL, matty, only because I am down to 9 and only got help on a few

10:35 am

mattygroves

Clever clogs! ;)

10:35 am

marksdolly

good to see you Hokie!!

10:35 am

mattygroves

I'm still missing 10 Ls and 7As, fer cryin' out loud

10:36 am

mattygroves

Aaand just found a no brainer - glad I haven't listed yet ;)

10:36 am

hokie carla

the Ls did take a bit of work. not a lot of words I'd use in conversation, but definitely words we've seen before

10:36 am

mkg

Hi all. Can’t believe there is a 10 and 11. I am not seeing anything like that. Don’t even have any 7 s yet.

10:37 am

mkg

I am working on an iPad and it is auto correcting and not good. Anyone else use an iPad for this?

So guess this game doesn’t work on iPad. Darn.

11:06 am

hokie carla

do you have the predictive text on the ipad? where it gives you options for the word? if so, click the far left one before you hit enter. or just turn off autocorrect.

11:06 am

hokie carla

it does work, I already said that earlier.

I've been on calls the whole time :)

4:25 pm

hokie carla

likely story

4:25 pm

moolingwa

okay, okay

4:25 pm

hokie carla

are the 3 Fs from the top row?

4:25 pm

moolingwa

I've been working with the israeli's, jordanians and palestinian to try and broker a go forward plan for Biden's incoming administration....strictly as a 3rd party, not as a representative of the US

4:26 pm

moolingwa

no, just one f off the top, 1 off the middle

4:26 pm

moolingwa

I had two off the middle before, but found one...a 6 letter

4:26 pm

hokie carla

interesting. on both your posts.

4:26 pm

moolingwa

A,F,F,S,S,S

4:28 pm

hokie carla

what if I told you I finished the middle F on first pass (something that never happens)

4:28 pm

moolingwa

nice

4:30 pm

hokie carla

do you have 1 7 left?

4:30 pm

hokie carla

and 1 4?

4:30 pm

moolingwa

yes

4:30 pm

hokie carla

maybe an 8?

4:30 pm

moolingwa

yes

4:31 pm

moolingwa

and 1 9

4:31 pm

moolingwa

8 that is

4:31 pm

hokie carla

ok, pretty sure I know those

4:31 pm

moolingwa

and 1 6, 2 5s

4:31 pm

moolingwa

nm, found the f in the middle

4:32 pm

moolingwa

one each of 4,5,6,7,8 to go

4:33 pm

moolingwa

found the 5

4:33 pm

hokie carla

ok, I guessed the 4 and needed help on the 7 and 8, but you may know them

4:34 pm

hokie carla

was it the indian instrument? I could not see that one at all.

4:34 pm

moolingwa

No, I was missing a ragout of partially cooked game....apparently

4:34 pm

moolingwa

not sure why I missed that one

4:35 pm

moolingwa

oh, stewed in wine and butter...important distinction

4:35 pm

hokie carla

yeah, I think that one was one of my last 4. we just had it the other day too.

4:35 pm

moolingwa

probably missed in then earlier

4:36 pm

moolingwa

the other one I found was an adjective relating to threads

4:36 pm

hokie carla

is it wrong that I think of it as a plural fish grizzlies love?

4:37 pm

moolingwa

no, I think that definition would be more commonly used

4:37 pm

hokie carla

oh, is your thread one a sportswear company (like shoes?)

4:37 pm

moolingwa

maybe it's what teetotalling vegans say instead of beer me

4:38 pm

moolingwa

well that's the 4 letter, the 5 letter was the one I was missing

4:38 pm

hokie carla

oh yeah, that's right

4:39 pm

hokie carla

my last word was a device used to cut hair at the skin. not sure why that was so hard to see.

4:39 pm

moolingwa

yeah, that was one of my last from that letter...if not the last

4:40 pm

moolingwa

I think because of the direction it goes

4:40 pm

hokie carla

yep, up and to the left. it goes against every reading rule i've ever known!

4:41 pm

moolingwa

too bad you can't be turned into a celtic cross, that would do me an 8

4:42 pm

moolingwa

Okay, well a scottish cross, not a celtic one

4:44 pm

hokie carla

yeah, that 8 was new to me and required some dumbing down

4:44 pm

moolingwa

:)

4:44 pm

hokie carla

so good luck!

4:44 pm

moolingwa

thx

4:44 pm

moolingwa

trying to locate the 4 first

4:44 pm

moolingwa

that will help narrow it down a bit

4:45 pm

hokie carla

let me know if you want to know first letter

4:45 pm

hokie carla

there is no definition for it

4:45 pm

lynxxx

Morning you two

4:45 pm

hokie carla

lyn!

4:45 pm

hokie carla

morning to you

4:45 pm

moolingwa

hey lyn...happy Freya's day to you

4:47 pm

lynxxx

Freya? thats a new one for me - Celtic goddess? - that this day is named after?

4:47 pm

moolingwa

found the 4...got all the other anagrams, but missed that one

4:47 pm

hokie carla

merriam webster does have a def for the 4. never heard of it

4:47 pm

moolingwa

Norse goddess...and yes

4:47 pm

moolingwa

Tyr, Woden/Odin, Thor and Freya

4:47 pm

hokie carla

wait, maybe I have the wrong 4. I don't recall any anagrams of it.

4:47 pm

moolingwa

this one has loads of anagrams

4:48 pm

hokie carla

I thought your A was the 4

4:48 pm

moolingwa

7 including itself

4:48 pm

moolingwa

yes, it was the a

4:48 pm

hokie carla

I'm obviously no Bea when it comes to guessing missing words

4:49 pm

moolingwa

but different a it seems...did you think it might have been the egyptian dancer?

4:49 pm

hokie carla

I thought it was the aerial bomb

4:49 pm

moolingwa

or maybe the last one

4:49 pm

moolingwa

though being a scrabble player, the last one is an easy one

4:50 pm

moolingwa

yeah, had that one...common scrabble word

4:50 pm

hokie carla

I don't even know what the egyptian dancer is

4:50 pm

moolingwa

the 4th 4

4:50 pm

hokie carla

ah, of course - that makes sense. gotta know the words for that letter! only reason I know what an adz/adze is.

4:51 pm

moolingwa

the three letter works too

4:51 pm

moolingwa

azan also

4:51 pm

moolingwa

and then you can extend azan to hazan

4:52 pm

hokie carla

I'm sure I will remember all those for WWF

4:52 pm

moolingwa

I stopped playing that because the scoring is so unbalanced

4:53 pm

moolingwa

you can blow a player out in the first few turns and it's all over

4:53 pm

hokie carla

I agree totally. I hate the board setup. I quit playing for a while until I realized no one else was playing scrabble so if I wanted to play I had to play that.

4:54 pm

hokie carla

it was fine until scrabble made them change the board :D

4:54 pm

moolingwa

I used to play scrabble a lot, when EA had it...but this new company turned it into a real gimiick

4:55 pm

hokie carla

yeah, I had the EA version that I played a lot

4:55 pm

moolingwa

I used to have about 20-30 games going at once, other wise I'd be waiting all the time

4:57 pm

hokie carla

my dad was a big scrabble fan. we played a lot when I was a kid and then for years we played a game every time I went home until his mind wasn't the same and he didn't want to anymore.

4:58 pm

moolingwa

yeah, that would be hard

4:58 pm

moolingwa

I won't play anyone I know...I don't like beating up on people

4:59 pm

hokie carla

yeah, have played a few friends in boggle and they think I'm making up words. I will play my kids in boggle and scrabble. it's about the only thing I can beat them at.

5:03 pm

moolingwa

My wife plays word games (it's actually how we met), but I'll give her a handicap if we play scrabble

5:06 pm

moolingwa

she plays a lot of that wordcross mobile game...I think that's what it's called

5:06 pm

moolingwa

More recent times I've gotten into playing Kryss...it's a little different, and there's a few things that are a bit annoying, but I enjoy it for the most part

5:10 pm

hokie carla

I've never heard of either of those

5:11 pm

moolingwa

Kryss is like a crossword grid, only you take turns with 5 tiles

5:11 pm

moolingwa

and there are clues as to what the words are...either a picture or a word clue

5:12 pm

moolingwa

there's some repetitiveness, and there's also three bonus squares that will allow you to double your points for that turn

5:12 pm

hokie carla

is that on computer or a mobile app?

5:13 pm

hokie carla

playing some serp. right now. finally made it to pink. not sure how long it will last. I don't know why I'm so bad at that game. I think a lot has to do with panicking.

5:15 pm

moolingwa

mobie

5:15 pm

moolingwa

5:15 pm

moolingwa

I might switch to serpentine...not really doing much here

5:19 pm
