[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:04:28 PM EDT] <Eris> <TheDeryni> Hi, DF
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:04:30 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Hi KK!
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:04:31 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Hi DerynifanK! And yes, heating pad is awesome.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:04:32 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Hi KK!
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:04:38 PM EDT] <Matt> Hi KK
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:04:43 PM EDT] <bynw> Hi KK. Happy Easter
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:04:47 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Happy Easter, KK!
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:04:50 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Hi, KK, Happy Easter!
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:04:50 PM EDT] <Eris> <derynifank> Hi KK
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:05:00 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Christus resurrexit, alleluia!
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:05:01 PM EDT] <Eris> <TheDeryni> Happy Easter, Katherine
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:05:05 PM EDT] <Matt> Happy Easter KK
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:05:06 PM EDT] <DomMelchior> Greetings KK Happy Easter
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:05:12 PM EDT] <KK> Hello, all. And what's left of a happy Easter to you.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:05:21 PM EDT] <DesertRose> How was your week?
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:05:57 PM EDT] <KK> BTW, Jesus Christ uperstar is on NBC, just started, in case anyone wants it on in the background.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:06:22 PM EDT] <The_Bee> I'm recording it now.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:06:31 PM EDT] <KK> Week was ok. Same stress as everyone else, I suspect.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:06:39 PM EDT] <DesertRose> I have, as usual for chat or if I'm trying to write anything remotely connected to medieval Europe, my Early Music station playing.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:06:53 PM EDT] <The_Bee> How did you observe Easter?
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:07:00 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Yeah, I think everyone's stressed out and probably not sleeping too well, either.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:07:03 PM EDT] <KK> Looked at some of Revanne's posts on her church website. Wow, is she a preacher!
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:07:11 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Isn't she amazing?
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:07:16 PM EDT] <DomMelchior> ALW has been releasing all his musicals to play on youTube during the lockdown Very kind of him.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:07:26 PM EDT] <Eris> <derynifank> Her Easter serman was wonderful
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:07:30 PM EDT] <The_Bee> ALW?
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:07:44 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Demercia has been doing posts on her church's Facebook, too, and they're well worth watching.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:08:04 PM EDT] <KK> Did you see her sunrise service this morning? Started before dawn, and the bird chorus gradually came on duty. Very moving.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:08:12 PM EDT] <Eris> <derynifank> What is the name of her facebook page?
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:08:14 PM EDT] <DesertRose> No, I haven't watched it yet but I intend too.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:08:15 PM EDT] <DomMelchior> Andrew Lloyd Webber
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:08:16 PM EDT] <KK> What is Demercia's website?
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:08:19 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Remind me--link to their churches?
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:08:36 PM EDT] <bynw> I've been watching all of revanne's sermons since she started posting them online. She is an excellent preacher
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:09:05 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> That she is. I just started watching
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:09:13 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Demercias is Parish Church Ellesmere: https://www.facebook.com/Parish-Church-Ellesmere-113515246952829/ and Revanne's is St. Benedict's: https://www.facebook.com/groups/118641718760414/
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:09:17 PM EDT] <KK> She is. I also watched the Easter mass from st. Patrick's Cathedral. That was also very good.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:09:55 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Our service was live on Facebook.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:10:21 PM EDT] <DesertRose> A lot of churches (and probably synagogues and mosques and other houses of worship) are live-streaming their services.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:10:31 PM EDT] <The_Bee> then we had a virtual coffee hour on ZOOM.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:10:55 PM EDT] <Eris> <derynifank> I saw both St BEnedict's and my own churches service
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:10:57 PM EDT] <KK> It's made all kinds of content suddenly accessible to the greater population.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:11:00 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Yup
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:11:31 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Like how we can watch an Easter sunrise service in England from our desks in the US.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:11:52 PM EDT] <KK> I need to learn how to do Zoom, but I have a feeling that my camera's video part is kaput.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:11:53 PM EDT] <DesertRose> (That's where I'll likely be when I watch Revanne's service, at my desk.)
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:11:56 PM EDT] <DomMelchior> Our new all virtual world
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:12:02 PM EDT] <KK> Amen, DR!
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:12:05 PM EDT] <bynw> KK, have a smart phone?
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:12:09 PM EDT] <DesertRose> If you have a smartphone, KK, you can download the Zoom app from your app store; it's free.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:12:38 PM EDT] <KK> I do, but it isn't Apple; it's Android.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:12:44 PM EDT] <DesertRose> It's a really easy app to use, too; if you want help, feel free to ping me on Facebook Messenger or email me and I'll do what I can.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:12:53 PM EDT] <bynw> doesnt matter. zoom is zoom and works with all
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:13:01 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Mine is also an Android; the Zoom app is free in the Google Play Store.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:13:04 PM EDT] <Matt> I just requested membership into Revanne's Facebook group. Hope to watch some sermons
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:13:07 PM EDT] <The_Bee> What if I have a stupid phone? =L
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:13:10 PM EDT] <DesertRose> LOL
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:13:12 PM EDT] <KK> I'd rather do it on the computer at my desk. Bigger screen, for one thing.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:13:23 PM EDT] <bynw> very understandable
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:13:28 PM EDT] <Eris> <TheDeryni> Yay! KK has an android smartphone. Phew.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:13:34 PM EDT] <DesertRose> You can join a Zoom meeting and just disable video if your camera is done for.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:13:58 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Or if for any reason you don't feel like using video.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:14:12 PM EDT] <The_Bee> ZOOM is weird. I had no trouble with my family chat, but I had trouble with both sound and video today.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:14:51 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Yeah, sometimes it's a bit quirky. Sometimes with my laptop I need to use my headset for sound input and output and sometimes it's fine with the built-in audio.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:15:33 PM EDT] <KK> I recently installed new speakers on my desktop. Long overdue, and the sound is excellent.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:15:44 PM EDT] <DesertRose> But KK, you can probably still do it from the computer and just disable the video from your end; you'll be able to see everyone else, but they'll just see a black square and your name.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:15:48 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Any way, I finally got it right with some help from my fellows
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:16:37 PM EDT] <DesertRose> I still prefer my desktop for most tasks. I like a proper, full-sized keyboard; my big ol' clunky hands don't always do well on laptop keyboards, LOL.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:16:57 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Carys says hi.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:17:15 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Hi, Carys
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:17:17 PM EDT] <Eris> <derynifank> Hi Carys
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:17:31 PM EDT] <DesertRose> She purrs at all y'all, because she is a Southern kitty, LOL.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:17:39 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Hi, Caryss
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:17:52 PM EDT] <DesertRose> She's also distributing kitty kisses.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:18:03 PM EDT] <Eris> <derynifank> And kisses to her
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:18:04 PM EDT] <KK> I was on my first Zoom last weekend of the one before, and got the video from the other end, but couldn't get my video to come through. Of course, I might have blocked the video and not know. Must get someone (like Cameron) to talk me through and see if it's my dumbness or a damaged camera. Microphone part works fine.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:18:07 PM EDT] * The_Bee scritches Carys.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:18:10 PM EDT] <bynw> cat get more Southern than all y'all
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:18:11 PM EDT] <Eris> <derynifank> And scritches
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:18:20 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Sweet kitty
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:18:27 PM EDT] <DesertRose> She is a sweet baby.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:19:14 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Show us some pics?
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:19:16 PM EDT] <Eris> <derynifank> AFTK for a few minues. BRB
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:19:38 PM EDT] <DesertRose> She likes it when I crack ice for my tea or whatever, because she gets to lick the ice chips that fall.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:20:03 PM EDT] <KK> Who is Iisi50MHz?
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:20:13 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> T2 and Q2 love ice cubes
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:20:29 PM EDT] <DomMelchior> afk
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:20:35 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Here you go: https://i.postimg.cc/HncPk0CQ/Carys-and-me-snuggling-with-the-heating-pad-8-Apr-2020-crop-sm.jpg
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:20:53 PM EDT] <KK> DomMelchior! Welcome back!
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:21:16 PM EDT] <KK> Awwww, DR.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:21:23 PM EDT] <The_Bee> She's a sweetie, DR.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:21:41 PM EDT] <bynw> IIsi50MHz is a long time community member in other chats mostly
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:22:02 PM EDT] <The_Bee> It feels good to have a warm fuzzy in your lap.

[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:22:09 PM EDT] <KK> I've noticed it before, but don't have a mundane name to attach to it.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:22:11 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Mistress of all she surveys.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:22:28 PM EDT] <KK> Regal, indeed.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:22:46 PM EDT] <The_Bee> What's surveying there?
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:23:13 PM EDT] <The_Bee> insert "she."
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:23:22 PM EDT] <DesertRose> The retention ponds and the creek below the window, possibly also some birds in flight somewhere out of frame.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:24:16 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> That looks very comfy, DR

[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:24:20 PM EDT] <bynw> such a majestic kitty. rightfully so too
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:24:22 PM EDT] <Eris> <derynifank> Adorable kitty
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:24:26 PM EDT] <Matt> Yes it does lol
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:24:47 PM EDT] <DesertRose> That's the heating pad in that picture of both of us.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:25:33 PM EDT] <DesertRose> She thanks you all for the compliments by purring like a motorboat.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:25:45 PM EDT] <Matt> Do you think cats see us as other "bigger" cats lol
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:25:55 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Possibly.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:26:07 PM EDT] <Matt> We are the keepers of the food and treats
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:26:08 PM EDT] <DesertRose> They definitely view their people as part of their cat colony.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:26:13 PM EDT] <The_Bee> PURRR to you, Carys!
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:26:27 PM EDT] <DesertRose> And toys and heating pads.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:26:56 PM EDT] <Matt> Jen calls me the "cat whisperer" because they all flock to me
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:27:21 PM EDT] <Matt> I can mimic a pretty real meow too.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:27:29 PM EDT] <Eris> <derynifank> My DH is like the Pied Piper, they all go to him

[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:29:45 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Must have. It dumped me out
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:29:58 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Melantha has been very talkative lately. I'm not sure if she's talking to me or about me.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:30:19 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> With cats you never know
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:30:28 PM EDT] <KK> LOL Good question, Bee.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:31:02 PM EDT] <The_Bee> It's a puzzle. She used to be very quiet.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:31:13 PM EDT] <TheDeryni> Cats definitely laugh AT people.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:31:14 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Carys is chatty sometimes. It depends on her mood.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:31:37 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Bee, is Melantha doing anything else unusual?
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:32:07 PM EDT] <The_Bee> not that I can tell.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:32:49 PM EDT] <Matt> Bacca's been having lots of hairballs lately. I think his coat is changing
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:33:00 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Okay. I was going to say, if she's changed her eating, drinking, or box behaviors, the extra chattiness would be concerning. I wonder if she's losing her hearing. Roxanne got much talkier after her hearing went.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:33:10 PM EDT] <Matt> He's shedding a lot more

[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:33:43 PM EDT] <DesertRose> It's that time of year, to shed the winter coat.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:33:50 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Thanks for the advice, DR.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:33:50 PM EDT] <Matt> Yup
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:34:23 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Oh, did y'all know it's National Grilled Cheese Sandwich day?
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:34:41 PM EDT] <TheDeryni> What,?
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:34:47 PM EDT] <DesertRose> And me with no tomato soup.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:34:57 PM EDT] <KK> I saw something about that. Dagwood, I think.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:35:01 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Yep, best way to eat it.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:35:08 PM EDT] <TheDeryni> Grilled Cheese Day!?!
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:35:18 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> I think that's where I saw it, too.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:35:42 PM EDT] <bynw> yes always have to have a grilled cheese sandwich with tomato soup. i think its a law
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:35:48 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Appreciation day for grilled cheese sandwiches
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:36:03 PM EDT] <TheDeryni> I didn't know I was in heaven.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:36:10 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Should be, if not, bynw
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:36:11 PM EDT] <DesertRose> My mom does BLTs with tomato soup because she--heathen!--doesn't like grilled cheese sandwiches.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:36:33 PM EDT] <DesertRose> I have to say, though, a BLT goes well with tomato soup.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:36:55 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> OMG! Doesn't like them?? Well, I can';t talk; my brother Pat doesn't eat them, either
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:37:03 PM EDT] <KK> Grilled cheese with tomato soup is the best!
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:37:05 PM EDT] <The_Bee> I have teriyaki chicken in my crock pot.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:37:07 PM EDT] <Matt> I do love Grilled cheese 😁
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:37:22 PM EDT] <DesertRose> I think she had too many crappy grilled cheese sandwiches as a kid. Alas.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:37:28 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> I think we will have that for supper
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:37:31 PM EDT] <Eris> <derynifank> Grilled cheese and tomato soup. Major comfort food
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:37:39 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> I do love a good BLT, though.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:37:48 PM EDT] * TheDeryni agrees with Katherine
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:38:10 PM EDT] <DesertRose> I didn't eat them much when I was a kid because she didn't like them, so when I grew up, I started making them with cheddar and homemade bread.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:38:23 PM EDT] <Eris> <derynifank> Yum
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:38:26 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Yum!
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:38:34 PM EDT] <DesertRose> I became a grilled-cheese-sandwich snob, LOL.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:38:51 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Homemade soup, too. Tomato soup is an easy soup to make.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:39:06 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Especially if you have an immersion blender.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:39:06 PM EDT] <The_Bee> i called Melantha's name and got no response. I'm not sure if she didn't hear me, or if she's just ignoring me.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:39:10 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> I just get Campbell's
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:39:23 PM EDT] * bynw always uses cheddar but sometimes will add in some other kind of cheese too
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:39:31 PM EDT] <KK> Costco does a very nice tomato bisque.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:39:55 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Yeah, that's the thing with cats. I think my family probably missed the early stages of Roxie's hearing decline because cats do tend to take a message and get back to you.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:40:56 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> La Madelyn does a great tomato soup
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:41:00 PM EDT] <The_Bee> I learned something new during virtual coffee hour. If you soak eggs in vinegar, the shells become transparent.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:41:21 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Why would you want transparent egg shells?
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:41:27 PM EDT] <TheDeryni> Unfortunately, I must depart. Everyone have a great week! Be safe and well.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:41:38 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Although the only time I've soaked eggs in vinegar has been when dyeing them.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:41:41 PM EDT] <bynw> cya TD
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:41:41 PM EDT] <DesertRose> G'night, TheDeryni!
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:42:04 PM EDT] <The_Bee> It makes the colors glow when you dye them.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:42:08 PM EDT] <Matt> Night TheDeryni
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:42:12 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Ooh, now THAT sounds cool!
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:42:13 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Bye, TD
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:42:19 PM EDT] <TheDeryni> Nighters!
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:42:22 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> 'Night TD
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:42:30 PM EDT] <Eris> <derynifank> Bye TD
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:42:40 PM EDT] Quit TheDeryni (uid347357@Flirt.Storyteller.Wiseass) has left this server (Quit: Bye ya'll).
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:42:48 PM EDT] <DesertRose> So you do what? Boil and cool them, soak them in vinegar, dry them off and dye them?
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:42:55 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Or do you do the vinegar soak before boiling?
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:43:25 PM EDT] <The_Bee> At least I think that's it . I'll have to try it next time I have eggs.I THINK you boil them first.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:44:37 PM EDT] <The_Bee> or you can add the food coloring to the vinegar. As I said, I haven't tried it yet.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:45:37 PM EDT] <The_Bee> The samples we were shown were lovely.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:45:39 PM EDT] <KK> Boil first, then into vinegar. Makes the shell rubbery. I remember doing this in Jr. high.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:46:03 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Wonderful KK!
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:47:51 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Ah, thank you, KK
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:47:55 PM EDT] <The_Bee> I'm told you can also get a mottled affect my rubbing them in cooking oil.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:48:01 PM EDT] <KK> I think that vinegar also can go in with the standard egg dye, to intensify the dye and make it not come off as easily.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:48:14 PM EDT] <DesertRose> I always put a little vinegar in the dyeing solution anyway.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:48:23 PM EDT] <KK> Yep.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:48:41 PM EDT] <DesertRose> I want to say that the PAAS boxes specifically instructed that, at least when I was a kid, LOL.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:49:00 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> We used to have so much fun coloring eggs when I was a kid.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:49:27 PM EDT] <DesertRose> I went off to Google and fell down a rabbit hole of egg-dyeing articles, LOL.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:49:47 PM EDT] <The_Bee> It's been many years since I dyed eggs for Easter. You can also wrap them in crepe paper or onion skins.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:49:55 PM EDT] <KK> Ah, PAAS boxes of dye.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:50:13 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Here's a cool one about using different household acids: https://www.sciencefriday.com/educational-resources/eggs-to-dye-for/
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:50:13 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Is PAAS a brand name?
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:50:19 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Yes, and a dozen eggs!
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:50:30 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Yes, they make egg-dyeing kits.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:50:36 PM EDT] <Matt> I know we did a thing some years ago where we switched up the traditions per each holiday. We dyed eggs at Holloween and carved a pumpkin around Easter
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:50:44 PM EDT] <KK> I think sio. It's been around forever, but only just before Easter.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:51:18 PM EDT] <bynw> yeah that's a brand name
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:51:31 PM EDT] <The_Bee> We just used food coloring. vinegar? not sure.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:52:02 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha> Hi Everyone! Kitchen clean-up took longer than expected
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:52:20 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Hi Jerusha. Happy Easter

[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:54:11 PM EDT] <Laurna> Hello Every one, Happy Easter
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:54:14 PM EDT] <Matt> Well everyone, think I might log off for now, helping Jen make dinner.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:54:30 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Have a good week, Matt
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:54:30 PM EDT] <KK> How're puppies today?
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:54:33 PM EDT] <The_Bee> We've been discussing different ways to dye Easter eggs.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:54:34 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha> Hi Laurna
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:54:37 PM EDT] <Laurna> I just had a slice of ham and pattatos
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:54:40 PM EDT] <bynw> hi Laurna
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:54:47 PM EDT] <Matt> Hope everyone has a good rest of you day
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:54:59 PM EDT] <Laurna> Puppies are getting bigger and starting to play with each other
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:55:12 PM EDT] <Laurna> Good day to your Matt
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:55:13 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha> We had ham, cauliflower almandine and popovers
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:55:20 PM EDT] <bynw> you should post some videos of the puppies
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:55:29 PM EDT] <bynw> night Matt
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:55:29 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha> Eyes are open nowÉ
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:55:44 PM EDT] <Eris> <derynifank> Night Matt
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:55:44 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha> Nighters Matt
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:55:45 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> That sounds good, Jerusha
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:55:55 PM EDT] <DesertRose> G'night, Matt! Have a good week!
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:55:57 PM EDT] <Laurna> When I have some sunshine coming through the windows to lighten up the room. Too dark today
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:56:35 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha> I don't suppose the puppies got a stuffed Easter bunny toy today
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:56:37 PM EDT] <The_Bee> My church had to cancel our traditional Easter dinner. they suggested we donate to some charities instead.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:57:01 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Bye, Matt. Good week to you.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:57:02 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Hi, to the puppies! I love puppy breath.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:57:18 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Hi puppies!
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:57:26 PM EDT] * DesertRose pats the puppies very gently.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:57:41 PM EDT] <Eris> <derynifank> Love to puppies
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:57:55 PM EDT] <Laurna> At least mama is keeping them cleaned up. I only have to change all their bedding once a day. That is a lot of blankets to wash
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:57:56 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha> Puppy cuddles for all of them
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:58:09 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Gotta go. Need to feed Lou and the grouchy outdoor kitty, Minnemee. She hisses at me, but she eats.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:58:17 PM EDT] <Laurna> Good night Judy
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:58:21 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Okay, g'night, HoundMistress! Have a good week!
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:58:25 PM EDT] <HoundMistress> Everyone have a good week!

[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:58:28 PM EDT] <Eris> <derynifank> Night Judy
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:58:37 PM EDT] <DesertRose> It sounds like Mama Dog is good at the mom gig.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:58:43 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Good week to HoundMistress.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:58:58 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Is it Jessa who had the puppies, Laurna?
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:59:04 PM EDT] Quit HoundMistress () has left this server (Quit: Connection closed).
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:59:06 PM EDT] <Laurna> ah there she goes feeding them right now. I love the sound of their suckeling.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:59:38 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha> The sound of healthy puppies
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:59:56 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Yup.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [7:59:59 PM EDT] <Laurna> Yes Jessa and Arty puppies. Jessa's official name is Mama Mia so when every she has puppies i start calling her mama. the rest of the time she is Jessa Mia
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:00:04 PM EDT] <DesertRose> LOL
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:00:59 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha> How is the little guy doing?
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:01:21 PM EDT] <Laurna> He just got pushed to the side. Let me rescue him, AGAIN
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:01:54 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha> Got to watch out for that boy. Have you named him?
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:01:56 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Ambush's sister, Sarah, has two little girls, and they each got a personalized bunny for Easter.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:02:13 PM EDT] <bynw> very cute too
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:02:27 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Yes, they are adorable little ones.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:03:23 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Is the little guy the runt of the litter?
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:03:29 PM EDT] <DesertRose> The older one likes to get in the camera when Sarah and I video-chat while we sew or whatever, LOL.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:03:33 PM EDT] <Laurna> The milk bar is fully open
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:04:35 PM EDT] <Laurna> Yes, I was calling him tiny, but now I started calling him #1 which is morphing into Will Riker. LOL poor guy with a name like that.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:04:36 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Good. That littlest puppy needs to nurse, too! Bigger pups need to have a little pity! <3
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:05:04 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Star Trek TNG fan?
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:05:06 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Hey, I had a raging crush on Jonathan Frakes back in the day. (He's still fine.)
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:05:18 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha> Great in Picard
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:05:31 PM EDT] <Laurna> ME? LOL since I was 4 years old
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:05:38 PM EDT] <KK> Will Riker is a great name!
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:05:49 PM EDT] <Laurna> Thanks KK
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:06:01 PM EDT] <DesertRose> My high school Latin teacher and I used to talk TNG, since it was airing at the time, and she had a massive crush on Patrick Stewart. (Now that I'm older, I do too, LOL.)
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:06:37 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha> I don't think any high school teaches Latin anymore
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:06:42 PM EDT] <Eris> <Malat> I liked the few times they tried to work in calling Riker "Bill." It is so odd. 🙂
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:07:01 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Probably not public schools, no. Mine was the only public high school in the state that did, even then.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:07:04 PM EDT] <Laurna> I love the name Will.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:07:05 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha> Bill does not work
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:07:24 PM EDT] <DesertRose> The private schools, particularly the Catholic parochial ones, might, though.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:07:34 PM EDT] <Laurna> My dad is Bill. I agree that Riker is not a Bill
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:07:53 PM EDT] <The_Bee> His double called himself Tom. Riker's middle name.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:08:14 PM EDT] <Laurna> I always liked the double in the story
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:08:19 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Yeah, it's a perfectly fine name, but Riker isn't a Bill. Will, sure.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:08:37 PM EDT] <Eris> <Malat> I wish we had seen more of Tom besides just the one DS9 episode where he went rogue.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:08:40 PM EDT] <The_Bee> I once one an award for my prowess in Latin.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:08:59 PM EDT] <The_Bee> won
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:09:01 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha> Nice, Bee
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:09:04 PM EDT] <DesertRose> I still have my two trophies from the Junior Classical League competition; they're in my cedar chest.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:09:50 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Along with my dance costumes from when I was ten or eleven, LOL, and the quilts and afghan my paternal grandmother made for me and a few miscellaneous other odds and ends.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:10:06 PM EDT] <Eris> <Malat> Latin is the language I always wanted to learn. I looked at it in college, but knew I'd never be able to do 930 AM classes five days a week.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:10:23 PM EDT] <The_Bee> I hope it's a big chest.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:10:43 PM EDT] <DesertRose> It's a standard sized cedar chest, as wide as a double bed.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:10:54 PM EDT] <The_Bee> It was required when I was young.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:10:55 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha> If I had known at the time that it would be important to studying medieval history...
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:10:55 PM EDT] <Laurna> I always wanted to learn English. Some day I may get that language down. Forget trying any other LOL
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:11:05 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Malat, if you have a smartphone, Duolingo offers Latin.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:11:32 PM EDT] <KK> 0930 for 5 days a week is a bit much. I had a physics class at 0830, but it was only 2 days a week, with lab on an afternoon. It was not my favorite, but I had to have it for pre-med.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:12:15 PM EDT] <DesertRose> That was what I liked about being an English major; none of the 300-and-up level classes were earlier than 9:30 or 10 am and a lot were later than that.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:12:29 PM EDT] <Eris> <Malat> Gosh, I 'd have never rolled out of bed for an 830 class. DesertRose, I don't, no.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:12:44 PM EDT] <Laurna> I did four years of physics and 5years of biology and Zoology and Pathology. English NOPE
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:12:47 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha> I had an early class at 830, and then not another class until 4:30. Nap time!
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:12:53 PM EDT] <DesertRose> I joked to my Shakespeare professor (who was department head at the time) that English professors must not be morning people since avid readers are all "One more chapter before I go to sleep."
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:12:59 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Well, phooey, Malat.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:13:41 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Did you live on campus, or commute?
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:13:42 PM EDT] <DesertRose> You can do it via a browser, too, though. I usually do my Navajo that way since there are a few characters I can't type with my phone.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:14:23 PM EDT] <Eris> <Malat> I have hearing loss too, so. Is it straight up text or does it involve sound stuff? "Repeat after me"?
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:14:34 PM EDT] <The_Bee> How much Navajo do you know, DR?
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:14:52 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha> The 4:30 class was an astronomy class. In the planetarium, they turned out the lights, and you leaned back in your chair. Not a good thing
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:15:00 PM EDT] <DesertRose> It does involve sound stuff, but you can skip the sound exercises; they'll have a button for "can't [listen/talk] now."
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:15:17 PM EDT] <Laurna> Cool Jerusha, I would have loved Astronomy
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:15:21 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Not a lot, but I can probably manage not to get myself in trouble in Navajo, LOL. Duolingo needs to add more to the course.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:15:54 PM EDT] <DesertRose> I can talk about family, food, weather, and directions and exchange pleasantries (hello, goodbye, thank you, you're welcome, etc.)
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:16:13 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha> Best class was when one of the students did a journey through the universe to Moody Blues music
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:16:25 PM EDT] <Laurna> NICE
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:16:43 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha> It was AWESOME
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:16:47 PM EDT] <The_Bee> "Hozhoni" is one Navajo word I remenber.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:16:56 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Our local Museum of Science and History, while mostly geared towards kids, does an evening thing in their planetarium called Cosmic Concerts, where they do a light show with music from a specific performer.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:17:04 PM EDT] <DesertRose> That's one of the hardest ones to translate, Bee!
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:17:18 PM EDT] <Laurna> Puppies are feed. Now they are playing bitty face
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:17:41 PM EDT] <KK> I thionk I'm about ready to sign off for tonight, gang. I find that this doing not much as very tiring.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:17:44 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Ya'at'eeh is hello, hagoonee is goodbye, ahe'hee is thank you. There should be accents on a lot of those letters.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:17:45 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha> Hang in there, Will Riker!
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:17:56 PM EDT] <The_Bee> That's why the Navajo code talkers were so successful during WWII.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:18:03 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Okay, g'night, KK. Thanks for coming to see us! Will we see you next week?
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:18:12 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha> Have a good week, KKI
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:18:18 PM EDT] <Laurna> Good Night KK. Take care and have a good week
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:18:25 PM EDT] <Eris> <Malat> Goodbye!
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:18:29 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Yup, Navajo isn't related to any languages that don't originate in what is now the southwestern US/northwestern Mexico.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:18:30 PM EDT] <KK> Yes, hang in there, Will Riker. And Laurna, keep an eye out for the little guy!
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:18:35 PM EDT] <bynw> have a good night KK, thanks for coming!
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:18:36 PM EDT] <Laurna> Will do
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:18:37 PM EDT] <The_Bee> Good night, KK. Have a good week. thanks for coming.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:18:49 PM EDT] <DesertRose> And happy Easter, too, KK!
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:18:57 PM EDT] <Eris> <derynifank> Night KK. Have a great week
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:19:00 PM EDT] <Eris> <Jerusha> Nighters, KK
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:19:10 PM EDT] <KK> Everyone, please take care and stay healthy. See you next week, same bat time, etc.
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:19:19 PM EDT] <Laurna> So much for play time now they are all in pile sleepping
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:19:24 PM EDT] <DesertRose> Same to you! Wash your hands and stay home as much as possible! <3
[Sunday, April 12, 2020] [8:19:39 PM EDT] <bynw> see ya next sunday!
