Team Wild Oats

[Trio]

I was out all day again today, hopefully I can add my book tomorrow.

[Claudia]

I have 4 books with around 290 pg. should I add these or do you want to wait for books with more pages?

[Claudia]

wow, just looked through the descriptions and there is one for every meal and they are really good as well
love "The elvis sandwich"

[Janeylou]

Claudia , we have spaces for 3 books left and we need 14 items to finish all the mrals written down ..( have highlited them green )

Your 3 books will only give 12 items
...Has anyone got 1 x 300 book so we can cover all 14 items ???

[Trio]

I do Janeylou - I was going to ask you if I should post it
Other Birds is 304 pages. I read it on 26 Oct.

it has: marshmallow, sweet potato, crab, cornmeal, turkey, mustard cream, endive, and corn (so far).

I also read In the Weeds on 28 Oct, it has 410 pages. I will have to scan it for foods, but there were definitely some there.

[Janeylou]

Trio, if you put one of your 300+ books in for 8 items then Cladia can use 2 of hers to cover the 6 items left .
Its sandwiches, pasta, quiche we need for and they are highlited near bottom if list .
Then we'll be finished and i can just check over tomorrow

Thanks girls x

[Kirsten]

Wow--what great work! And I'm glad you like my descriptions. They're fun, and I can finish them out when we get all our books in.

[Trio]

okay Janeylou - I put it Other Birds and added 4 things to sandwiches, 2 things to quiche. So I left 2 spaces for Claudia.

There are lots more food words, so if the 6 I picked don't work, or if I did it wrong just let me know.

[Janeylou]

Trio, you still have another 2 items you can use with that book, so pop them in

[Janeylou]

Trio & Claudia , there are 8 items still waiting to be added with your last books
Claudia you have 2 books = 8 items
Trio you still have 2 items to use , so whoever gets there first

Its last day tomorrow so needs to be done by then

[Amanda]

Sorry I'm so good at the beginning of the month and then peter out. I'll do my best next month to remain consistent!! You all are awesome

Thanks Trio..can you add pge counts for.all words from Other Birds please

[Kirsten]

I just added another meal, a special, from a book I read today. We have room for 1 more book, and I can maybe read a 300 page one before end of day tomorrow. I have a few in my queue for another challenge.

yes, sorry!

[Janeylou]

👍👍👍

Shall we do a mix of spell.outs and hunt items again for next month as i know thers a mix for peoples favourites , but will try to use less 'i & u'

[Trio]

that sounds good Janeylou!

[Kirsten]

Yes -- as we finished the "assigned" stuff, I found that it was sometimes easier to spell than scavenge--Psycho had no food in it, but lots of vowels!

[Janeylou]

Has anyone got a 301-500 pg book to add for the remaining 6 items ..if not ill add a book for 4.items and have to remove a meal

[Kirsten]

I do not--I can put in 4 items, however. I just can't read another book today!

Also, I just joined this challenge: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

It's a spelling hunt! at least 1 160pp book/week.

[Amanda]

I probably do! Let me look at what we need (unless you already did it)

There's a spot for comments so if you do sign up add us. I don't know if we can edit out sign up (I'd just say since Kirsten and I both have kinda common names maybe put our GR ID in as well?)

[Kirsten]

Paris Daillencourt Is About to Crumble
Lightning Born

I felt the same way! Lots ok UK writings I think. I felt like there was a lot of "I don't give a fig about x" and I don't hear that in the US as often. (Although, I looked up the origin and looks like it originated in Spain!)

Well, that's why I posted here!!!

[Claudia]

sorry, that it took me so long.
Janelou, I took your last book out and added a >300 book , to finish the one open meal and I added another one
I also added 3 games

hope that is ok

[Janeylou]

Claudia , the extra meal is great but we can only have a maximun if 20 games so want be able to use them sorry..if you want to add some more items to your. quiche instead ?

[Janeylou]

Actuall youve used 1 item too many so just add 2 items to quiche

[Kirsten]

Imma work on handing off the meals after dinner and trick or treaters, fyi.

[Trio]

I ate so much candy, I feel ill 😝 - I almost never eat those regular American candies, and I ate Butterfinger, Baby Ruth, Junior Mints, and Reeces.

[Amanda]

I was beyond surprised that apparently the candy choice of kids is KitKat. Lucky for me that means there are a lot of reece's left lol.

[Trio]

I bought those tiny boxes of Junior Mints and my daugher kept insisting that noboy would want them... they were the first to go hahaha!

[Trio]

Just FYI, looking over that list of books with FIGS in them... I have a sneaking feeling Bey Deckard's book is actually referring to figging though, and not figs 🤣😂😂. It is a great pirate story however, and I do recommend it.
