9:16 am

mael

oh I found another 8

9:20 am

mael

must be my same two Cs, Ru

9:21 am

hokie carla

I just need one C and I'm very smug about it.

9:21 am

mael

I found the at7 once I found the T word

9:21 am

hokie carla

hmm

9:22 am

hokie carla

now I'm not smug

9:22 am

hokie carla

anyhoo, you all might need cr7/8

9:22 am

mael

found the Cs, I was missing a pair. My last 7 and 8

9:22 am

mael

those would be the ones, lol

9:22 am

hokie carla

lol

9:23 am

hokie carla

which means I am missing something else

9:23 am

mael

the alternate spelling to milk solids?

9:24 am

mael

or the one that sounds like a french pancake?

9:24 am

hokie carla

have both spellings of that

9:24 am

hokie carla

aha, thanks

9:25 am

hokie carla

the ever-present myrtle tree

9:26 am

mael

I think that's spelled like the french pancake and the paper

9:27 am

hokie carla

I have seen it both ways but just googled it spelled this way and it came up as that

9:28 am

hokie carla

where is bea??

9:28 am

mael

huh, the more I learn!

9:29 am

hokie carla

google tells me both are correct. the paper/pancake is traditional in the south and the other in the rest of the country. which begs the question, why do I think it's the other way when I've lived in the south the whole time?

9:30 am

hokie carla

and I have only seen the tree in the south so why do we care how the rest of the country spells it?

9:30 am

welki

'morning, myrtle-fans

9:30 am

hokie carla

(like the pronunciation of appalachian)

9:30 am

mael

and why do I think it's the southern spelling if I live in MA? lol

9:30 am

hokie carla

so mysterious

9:31 am

welki

(i thought it was the paper/pancake spelling, too)

9:31 am

hokie carla

missed welki sneak in. welki!

9:31 am

hokie carla

okay, time to leave now. will check back in while I'm processing.

9:31 am
