Suzanne’s comments from the Nothing But Reading Challenges group.

I entered my first two books. Since they were long, I focused on drinks and desserts - it seems as if getting lots of meals might help since we have been having more customers than meals. However, if you both would like me to switch to some other things, I'd be happy to!

I didn't put in any romance bonus items yet, but seems (hopefully) like we can get those. I did have two chocolate things. I am not sure how gold will work as a food, but I suppose it doesn't really matter since there's no rulel saying we need all three words.

I think the holidays and all the associated things make it easy to lose some reading steam :)

And yeah it'll be fun - at least mostly. My oldest kids need me to babysit the grandson the 25th through December 5th. Other than missing husband, dog, and computer, it'll be fun :). And the husband reminded me I'll have lots of time to read, so that's good.

I just learned that I need to be in Seattle from Nov. 25th on, so I will also not be much help in transferring things to the primary spreadsheet. I can enter into spreadsheets though. Maybe before the last week of November we can put things into the main spreadsheet then just enter into the primary one instead of moving across? I can MAYBE copy/paste using my tablet or phone, but gulp.

And...I finally finished a book. Sigh. My reading is really taking a hit for some reason. Well, and it was a long book, but still... I'll get things input soon.

Thanks for setting that up!

We almost doubled our points from the first month - that's pretty awesome.

For this month we have the romance bonus words (like the kids toy words) - I believe we can have up to 20?

and based on our rank:
Meals with the word "chocolate", "gold", or "scallop" in the text or title, or used as a spell-it-out will attract more adults for round 3

I copied the Round 3 sheets into our planning sheets and moved them up to be closest to books read. I haven't hidden the round 2 books read yet. Hopefully formulas will work, but it's a start!

Thanks for the heads up - I can try to do some of that copying over you did - I won't be as good as you but maybe you can give me whatever tips you have beforehand. And hopefully we can get some done early too.

Thanks for looking at it! I suspect you are right about not being able to feed everyone - but I'm proud of how well we've done!

Yes I'm proud of what we've accomplished! Thanks everyone!

Thanks you two! I hope you have a fun Halloween!

I think we may get lots of trick-or-treaters this year since the weather is pretty good. I have lots of young'uns in the neighborhood that I love, so hoping to see them come to the door :)

I am trying to finish descriptions as meals are finished. Hopefully we'll get as many as possible official :)

Thanks both of you for working so hard! I'll try to put in some descriptions in the orange highlighted spaces.

Tea always works. And is actually worth more points than most things :) Nice work - that has been a huge job!!

Bummer! I was hoping to see soups too but I guess a lot of the stuff we're making could be a pasta or a soup, etc. - just depends on the amount of liquid :)

I agree - I consider a hamburger a sandwich too. Thanks for keeping us on the right path Rebecca!!

Oh dear - the names I keep thinking of - that I hadn't put names in yet.....like:

Finding Nemo: He's here! In these delicious fish and chips.

I was also toying with Salmon-ella but .... I'm going to skip the fish and chips for now :)

I hope so too! Thanks for checking up on her.

Thanks Rebecca! I'm going to eat then try to do things on this. Thought I'd eat first because working on our menus will make me hungry! :)

Yes just highlight if you need ingredients or letters! I have 3 books to put in and I'm sure I can cover things (and I'd guess they have potatoes if you need them).

I hadn't thought about that either! Marshmallow is a brilliant word to spell!
