Ok, I am tired of guessing....

I know that I am still kind of a "silent stalker" and don't post much on the boards but I am having the hardest time figuring out some of the lingo! :laugh: :grumble:
For example:
DH ?
DD ?
IL ?

These are just a few. I apply my own definitions but I sure would love to be in on the actuals! Please help! :blushing:

    IRL = In Real Life
    BTW = By The Way
    HG = Hungry Girl (if we are talking about a recipe, she's a recipe designer of sorts)
    CL = Clean Living (if we are talking about a recipe)
    TOM = female speak for 'time of month'

    ... trying to think of other acronyms I use here, but all that comes to mind is
    IDK my BFF Jill :wink:

    Silly me. I knew the others but the only thing I could think of for IL is that it's the abbreviation for Illinois. :bigsmile:
  • Thank you Thank you Thank you! Most of my guesses were right but there were still some that I needed clarity on!
    PS I love listening to all y'all's chats on here! I will try to stalk less silently more often! :ohwell: :laugh:
