Ann: We've got double books in line 24 and 33 but the page numbers are different and the words are different. I'm so not sure what is going on but I think 33 is supposed to be a different title??

I've got coffee and snacks. I ended up falling asleep on the couch last night. I'm about to power through and make meals with all the rest of the things still left and use as many spell-outs as I can. I'll just need some help with names in a little bit.

I made a few more meals. I'm really not good at naming things so if anyone wants to help me out that would be awesome. Also, with my Lady Luck book, some of the desserts came written with multiple ingredients, am I able to put those down as whole desserts since that's how they were in the book? I'll be back in a couple hours to work some more.

I posted my comment somewhere but I have no idea what thread. Anybody have any good short books that they have read this week with lots of characters with vowels to take that last open spot. I have not but I can power through something tonight if need to. Here's a breakdown of the letters that we have left to use and how many in each section:

5 left: C, U, S, Q, M, M, H, B, V, M, G, P, J, G, F, R

2 left: R, Z, Q, L, J, M, J, S, F, R, S, L

1 left: W, D, S, Y

4 left: A, C, B, D, T, H, N, S, T

6 left: C, H, N, B, K, F, O, D, O, I, T, K, J, M, T, O

7 left: M, E, M, T, B, J, C, E, R, D

6 left: T, R, J, H, F, Q


Some possible choices that I've found so far with just using limited vowels in a word to make more meals and using UBE once but haven't had enough time to dive in are...

UBE, FISH, OYSTER, GYRO, SHRIMP, CRAB, EGG, CORN, CURRY, GRITS, JAM, JELLY,

Some of the numbers got jumbled this morning which is why we had to play musical numbers but I think it should work for you now. Any suggestions on some good spell-outs? I need to go write down all the letters we have left and see what we can make.

Let me go check this out really quick. I've been fixing numbers and they may be messed up again.

I think I got the page numbers fixed. I thought it was going to be a busy day in clinic but I was on vacation the last three days and the numbers are not what they were on Monday. I can make meals probably this afternoon also.

I can also finish up using the remainder ingredients tomorrow night if y’all need me too. That way Saturday morning if we just need to tweak things we can. I have to be at work at 7 in the morning or I would do more. Where we were staying was in central time zone and I live in eastern so it has me all messed up!

Okay, I got a few more meals done. Finished the spell-out with the U but looks like we need some E's. I switched my November 9 book to a spell-out because it has I and O which could be good vowels to use in a spell-out but I'll have to figure that out tomorrow night. I haven't touched the 12 use books much because I wanted to evaluate those for drinks and desserts. I'll need help with names because I kinda suck at that.

Let me see what I can make in the next 30 minutes or so. Then tomorrow night I can spend a long time making meals with what we have left.

Lol, it wasn't me because I'm not that creative. I had to fix some numbers. We had some duplicates and it was messing things up. I think I got it fixed. Watermelon, ube, and legumes.

I'm home. I'm going to work on creating meals. I finished my spell-out book that I'll fill in some of those letters with. I'll see what else I can come up with. I'm not very good with names though.

Oops I missed this too because I was thinking it was today also.

Back in the car for four hours but we have a couple stops in Indy to make. We need a legit big kid Costco run bc Indiana is about to implement some new covid rules based on the color of your county and we need to eat. I’m waiting for Kentucky to do the same thing. We live on the Indiana side of Louisville but we follow both governors bc we work in Kentucky. That’s countdown to have meals finished. I will have my books finished tonight and I’ll work on meals and tomorrow night I can power house like last time and help make last minute things and name some stuff.

I tried to post this a few times already. If it shows up double, my bad! This internet in the woods is sketchy but I'll be home tomorrow and I can totally work on this. Is the deadline still Saturday like last time? Friday nights are so much easier for me to power through knocking stuff out than any other night. Also, I think some teams are getting lines added for meals if we get to that point.

Checking in. I can’t see the spreadsheet but I’m pretty sure they are from the piano teacher and the chapters were dates not numbers. I’ll have to figure out how to go back for page numbers bc I read it in Libby.

Ohhhh that’s a good point. I can change mine around later this week to not make meals in accordance with 500 plus ingredients. I never once thought about that.

I updated my read dates. This internet is major sketch but I was able to get logged in. I like the idea of specials and if watermelon were included that would be even better. Maybe a breakfast special, lunch special, and dinner special. I googled watermelon sandwich and a lot of grilled cheese with watermelon ideas came up. I know we have a few watermelon salads that can be for a quick lunch. We could always toss in a couple pieces of watermelon in with a fish and chips order. Also maybe a watermelon adult drink special. I have watermelon waiting to used three times in one of my books and I can always move some of my recipes around that I put watermelon in to use it more efficiently. We will be hiking and such today but I'll check in when I get back to this sketch hotel. I'm seeing what I can make really quick before we get ready to go.

That’s a great idea. I won’t be able to make meals until Thursday so if anyone wants to help me out that would be great. I finished two books but I’m in a cabin in the woods and internet is so sketch here. Plus I mean John and I don’t hang out often so I guess I should hang out with him. I can’t update spreadsheets at the moment but I did mark the two books that I finished as read and I’m almost through with two more that I’ll have done tomorrow.

Yep, because it was a good food word book. I really, really liked that book. Lukov is one of my favorite characters!
