Team Wild Oats

[Kirsten]

I'm starting a 500+ book Unsticky because it fits other challenges. I plan to hunt and finish out the liquor, look for books and balloons, find other drinks as well specials and vinegar!

Let me know if I should use another strategy.

[Janeylou]

Thats fine Kirsten , ive got a 500+ one for next week, so hopefully whatever you dont get i can find

I may check tomorrow and see what it contains

[Caipi]

Hi girls, I'm back from our short trip to Sweden. 🇸🇪
I added a book (Psycho) to the SS, 1 x P and 3 x A. 👍🏻
.....and just as a small note, I find the spell outs much easier than the scavenger hunts. 😊

[Amanda]

Oh I just finished a 500+ book and forgot that that's important lol

[Kirsten]

Okay! I’m clearly in the minority with hunting. I can keep spelling for sure.

[Janeylou]

Ive added some more meals at bottom girls , bothe spell and scavenger

[Janeylou]

Im currently going through SS to see what we need/ have etc .
But we struggling with some of the vowels , so to save us have half words done here and there, it may be worth reverting to just scavenger hunt items for last 10 days as we know we have a place for them .

We still short on a I, P, S E,I, I A for spell outs , so ill pick a few shorts and do these if you want to get out of the way

For the childrens speacial nuggets/ fries , we only need these ingredients
🔹️Chicken nuggets and waffle fries (chicken, bread or bread crumbs, salt, egg, flour, potato, oil
Must contain chicken, potato and oil.🔹️
If we can just do lots of 3 x item meals ( using chix, pots, oil ) that would be great

so ive highlighted the bacon/olives that needs moving...edited..ive moved them

[Janeylou]

We need some non alcholic drinks from 500 pg books if poss

[Kirsten]

I have a 177 page book with two MCs named Ivan and Isidore. I can slot that in soon.

[Janeylou]

Great kirsten , you get 4 names for that one is there a P S E or A as well

[Janeylou]

Theres a few spell out that are on SS with no book next to then , i have highlighted in green ..but you may find that it means you are over on your spellouts , so let me know

[Kirsten]

Janeylou wrote: "Great kirsten , you get 4 names for that one is there a P S E or A as well"

There are 3 Is and an E. I’ll get to it soon. I thought it was only 2 letters!

[Janeylou]

It is a strange one as its 50 pages - 160 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

[Trio]

I'm still completely clueless - every time I look at that SS I'm afraid to start!
I've got the letters for the spellout to add... do I just put them in the "books read" sheet, and one of you will fill in the "meals created"?

[Janeylou]

Trio, how many books are we talking about , as we done loads of spell outs and was going to try and do scavenger food items for rest of the month

[Trio]

I have a book with an I, C, L, G, S, and A
I'm going to add it to the SS on Books Read
(I've got to start somewhere!)
just let me know what to do next? I know once I've got started I'll be able to help out this month.

Now, do I carry it over to the Meals Created SS, where do I put in the letters for the spellout?

[Janeylou]

Trio , the only letters we now need are P S A ..kirsten got others covered

So put your book on book page with detail, copy and paste title and add title against the letter you using it for on kitchen page ( youll see how we have added ours) just like the food from last month ..then add the name of person / title it relates to
It will be around line 280 ish

After this book its food meals only ..so keep check

[Trio]

okay Janeylou - I'll change it for a book with a P and an A

[Janeylou]

Trio wrote: "okay Janeylou - I'll change it for a book with a P and an A"

And an S if you can find one

[Trio]

so Janeylou, I get 4 rows for my book... and the letters I have left are: V, K, C, B, D, and G.
If we don't need any of them, what do I do with the extra two rows?

sorry - I know I'm making extra work for you, I always find this kind of challenge so confusing.

[Trio]

I've got an anthology I can use - let me see if it has a "P" too.

[Janeylou]

There isnt anything you can do with them as cant mix spell and scaveng in same book .

It woul be best to use a shrter book if you have one 161- 300 pgs ..( gives 4 items)
If you just want to use your books for scavenger food Trio then i can pick up the spare letters

[Trio]

okay - I've got a 177 page book with a P, S, and an A
I'll add it to the SS

even though it gives me 4 rows, I just fill in 3 rows, correct?

and I'm on row 399 btw, if you need me to move something, or delete you know my feelings won't be hurt Janeylou

[Janeylou]

Trio..the spaces are already set up , you need to add in lines 320, 332 & 392

[Claudia]

I have in my two current books a lot of S, A, Es, even an U
Will add them sunday at the latest

[Trio]

My current book, unstable connection is good for hunting and spelling ... one of quaids smoothies alone brings a whole garden of different vegetables 😋

Found even different games

[Janeylou]

Thats great Claudia 👍

[Trio]

I only posted the one book for the spellout so far.
I see there are still three I's and an E still open. Do you want me to post books for those Janeylou?

[Janeylou]

Kirsten has them covered Trio..she posting on sunday

[Trio]

okay great
the book I'm reading now is about a chef, so I've been highlighting my words 🙂

[Kirsten]

I promise I’m on it! I’m finishing a 400+ book for hogwarts and then will read the short I and E book!

Lots of food in the one I’m reading now.

[Trio]

Def no pressure!!! I'm just looking to help out where I can Kirsten lol, I totally dropped the ball on this challenge this month!

[Kirsten]

Hey, friends --

I've just added my I and E book, and latest book as well (I have some <300 if we get desperate).

We are missing a few spell it outs:
105 T in fresh tea
235 H in chicken
237 C in chicken

and a few errors:
145 L instead of I
154 L instead of I
163 L instead of I
364 L instead of I

I've marked them in pink for ease of finding. Not right now, but soonish, I can cover 2 more of the Is and see what else is out there in that book (Sicken of the Calm).

[Amanda]

I have an I book coming up in the next couple days

It's so hard to see! I was just going through and looking for empty spaces.

[Janeylou]

Well rather than using a long book for potetionally 1 i ..ive got severeal 50-60 pg books with i' s that i can knock out in no time , and 1 has a T as well

[Janeylou]

Where we enter books can someone mark my # 50 as scavanger and the rest as.Spell please

[Janeylou]

Ive got a 500+ to finish that will cover all desserts/ alcoholic/ none alcoholic drinks

Ive covered 1 x T & 1 x i

[Janeylou]

We need to start doing desriptions for the meals as well

[Amanda]

I have quite a few books I can add, will look later today probably

[Kirsten]

I've got to keep grading, but I'll take a look and do some adding and describing soon.

[Trio]

Other Birds had some crazy food in it, I'll take a look at the SS.

[Kirsten]

Hello friends!

I should be grading.

Instead, I finalized several meals; added 2 spell-it outs because we needed the Is and I had letters left over; added and described ~150 meals. We're missing a few things (like a cocktail and several non-alc drinks).

I have a 300+ book left to finish, and we have room for 6 books after that. In theory, we should be able to add ~10 more meals. I also have 2 vinegars and 2 oils if we want to add more fish and chips and specials--I'd need to move things around.

So, we're in good shape, I think, going into the weekend.

[Janeylou]

Great going Kirsten ..ive got a 500+ book to cover desserts, cocktails etc .

Im off work tomorrow so will update my books as well and see where we are

I thought I remembered that. I will read at least 2 more books by Monday.
