Scrabbler

BRB, the rabbits are causing a ruckus.

5:33 am

Scrabbler

Rascals.

5:34 am

ItalianGreyhound

Fox ?

5:36 am

Scrabbler

I have house rabbits and they are being noisy. Perhaps they heard a critter in the woods.

5:46 am

ChampFit

It's fitting that at the moment I realized there were 47 C's, I found what I was thinking...cr4!

5:49 am

Scrabbler

Haha.

5:51 am

ChampFit

They are not my forte

5:53 am

Scrabbler

I have 28 so far but I have hit a wall with the grid.

5:54 am

ItalianGreyhound

I thought that too, but most of the Cs flew by

5:54 am

Scrabbler

Alright, I will really focus now.

5:55 am

ItalianGreyhound

several use the double cons

5:55 am

ChampFit

I have 38 but will pick a bit more.

5:55 am

Scrabbler

Yes, I went wild when I figured that out.

5:56 am

ChampFit

Just realized I missed a couple...thank you! 41

6:06 am

Scrabbler

I found 2 trigonometry terms, one is a plural.

6:06 am

ChampFit

BBL...this is definitely going better than expected. Good luck all!

6:06 am

Scrabbler

Bye

6:06 am

ItalianGreyhound

7:59 am

BzznBea

Good morning, welki.

7:59 am

marksdolly

hi welki

7:59 am

hokie carla

hey welki

8:01 am

marksdolly

hi Hokie!

8:01 am

hokie carla

hello dolly!

8:02 am

hokie carla

name that candy in the grid that I never liked because it was too "spicy"!

8:02 am

marksdolly

red hots

8:02 am

hokie carla

✅✅✅

8:03 am

marksdolly

:)

8:03 am

hurshy

agreed

8:03 am

marksdolly

nous

8:03 am

welki

love 'em

8:04 am

hokie carla

30 left and HOET after 1st pass

8:04 am

marksdolly

I didn't like those red hots either, ew!!

8:04 am

welki

but then, i loaded up on the wasabi last night

8:04 am

marksdolly

oooh wasabi make me snort like a dragon

8:05 am

hurshy

wasabi is awful

8:05 am

Shirlockc

first time i had wasabi, i ate a spoonful

8:05 am

welki

(and don't know if they have them in their southern, but costco has gigantic, delicious artichokes! artichokes here are usually puny

8:05 am

Shirlockc

i blame the ex who didn't warn me

8:05 am

marksdolly

oooh Shir did it make you roll?

8:06 am

welki

oh shirl!

8:06 am

Shirlockc

i choked and eye-watered, still like sushi tho :)

8:07 am

hurshy

well i like SUSHI, just no wasabi involved

8:07 am

Shirlockc

first time for everything!

8:07 am

hurshy

phantom: potato

8:07 am

welki

no spicy things for you, hursh?

8:08 am

hokie carla

did not see that, but I've finished the P!

8:08 am

hokie carla

I even think black pepper is too hot sometimes

8:08 am

hokie carla

I'm a bit of a wimp

8:08 am

hokie carla

I couldn't stand toothpaste when I was a kid

8:08 am

hurshy

no way. i'm an HSP, my senses are more sensitive than normal. so something a little spicy to you is overwhelming to me. and like, that's all i can taste then. i can't taste the food itself at all.

8:09 am

welki

i love hot and spicy food - had a friend from jamaica who taught me how to make proper jerk chicken

8:09 am

welki

the mint in toothpaste can burn - i'm with you on that, hokie

8:09 am

hurshy

anything with a very strong flavor, not just spicy. like pickled things are NG, fermented things...

8:09 am

hokie carla

my really good friend is not right in the head when it comes to spicy food, and I learned long ago not to trust her to say if something is spicy

8:10 am

hurshy

try Twice brand toothpaste. the burning sensation is unnecessary and Twice does not use the chemicals that make it happen.

8:11 am

welki

where in the states can you buy it, hursh? my husband is super-sensitive to the mint in toothpaste

8:11 am

hokie carla

but does it use the chemicals to help me not get cavities, because that's what i need

8:11 am

hurshy

i think you can only order it online

8:11 am

hurshy

yes, it still has fluoride

8:12 am

welki

i can have it shipped to a relative and pick it up when we visit :)

8:13 am

Arwena

Sheer is not a word?

8:13 am

hurshy

you might be able to have it shipped to canada too

8:13 am

hokie carla

it is, try it again

8:13 am

welki

try it again, arwena

8:13 am

BzznBea

It is a word. You may have mistyped.

8:14 am

hurshy

woot, i just made up a p6/7 combo that worked!

8:14 am

Arwena

Ok.. gotta be careful with iPad..lol

8:14 am

hokie carla

those were my last 2, hurshy. was surprised as well.

8:16 am

welki

heh - $7.99 for the toothpaste, $8.58 for shipping (plus conversion rate, so over $21.00 - probably worth it, though

8:16 am

welki

(on amazon)

8:17 am

hurshy

amazon carries it so if you have Prime

8:17 am

hurshy

ah

8:17 am

welki

it's not available on the canadian amazon site - i use smile.amazon.com to ship to my us relatives

8:18 am

hurshy

makes sense

8:18 am

BzznBea

Hurshy, are you satisfied with the amount of esses today?

8:18 am

hurshy

tis frustrating when canada and the US share a massively long border, you'd think things would be shippable between them more easily

8:18 am

hokie carla

super

8:18 am

hurshy

there was a canadian brand of cat litter i wanted to try but had no way to get it

8:19 am

hurshy

yes thank you Bea :D

8:19 am

welki

(i use smile because it donates to wayward creatures - the rescue one of our babblers runs

8:19 am

hurshy

yes, i do the same welki!

8:20 am

BzznBea

Which babbler is that?

8:20 am

hokie carla

well, 5-6-7-3-1 - 22 left for later. better make some breakfast. TTFN>

8:21 am

BzznBea

My smile goes to MoKan Boxer Rescue. Mr. B's goes to Carolina Boxer REscue.

8:21 am

hokie carla

mine goes to wounded warrior but I forget a lot of times to go there instead of the regular

8:22 am

welki

jesdraggon, bea

8:22 am

hurshy

put it in your bookmarks bar as the Smile version and click it to go to amz

8:23 am

BzznBea

One of my wish lists is for a couple of ladies that work with the homeless. Just sent hats and men's gloves last week.

8:29 am

BzznBea

8:38 am

hurshy

oh duh i forgot you can do verb things with that word

8:38 am

hurshy

nvm

8:39 am

hurshy

for 8s i have cr, re, sh, st... can anyone tell me what i am missing?

8:39 am

hokie carla

well, I'm glad I looked in again before my walk. the re7/8 were my last R on the bottom and my last 8.

8:40 am

hokie carla

oddly, I had tried the color plus a thing you wear on your head

8:40 am

hokie carla

co8, unexpected pt

8:40 am

hurshy

well that works too

8:41 am

hurshy
