    If they're potent enough to cause that, maybe YOU need the doctor...just saying...

    Protein farts was a suggestion to Quik for her card.

    Son seems to have burst an ear drum and is in a lot of pain. Still waiting on Doctor.

    Oh man!! That's no good!! Hope he's ok!!

    Jump right in! What you got?!?

    Well for starters, is it pronounced sher-bet, sher-bit, sher-bert or sher-bay?

    Maybe his cousin found out?

    Sher-bet

    Sher-bert

    If I'm talking about it and the printed word is not nearby then it's "sore-bay", but if it's somewhere spelled "sherbet" then I pronounce it that way. We tend to see "sorbet" here more frequently than "sherbet" here though.

    Sorbet is different to sherbet though. Sorbet is a frozen thingy sometimes given as dessert usually used as a palate cleanser between meals. Sherbet is a fizzy powder. Or have I totally lost the plot?

    As evidenced by the video I posted, sher-Bert is a sugary alternative to ice cream.

    I confess - I didn't watch the video. I didn't want everyone if my office to wonder what I was doing... ;)

    But when you do watch it, your happiness will increase by at least 230%.

    I'm holding you to that!

    Um, that's three minutes of my life I'll never get back. I did, however, go to Amazon to see if it was a real thing and found this review... :D

    Yes, exactly, we don't have the fizzy powder on this side of the Atlantic, so as far as I knew they were both just names for non-dairy frozen desserts (although the Google explanation claims that there is indeed some milk in the "sherbet" iteration, which I wasn't aware of and could probably not distinguish a difference between. I assumed it was an Americanised spelling thing vs our clinging onto the French.

    You need to have the fizzy powder version of sherbet. Will rot your teeth and maybe make you hyperactive but it's awesome !

    I may need to try this when I am in England...

    Yes! And you need to try candy corn... I haven't forgotten! And off to Dollywood we go! Full agenda!

    I am still not too keen on clotted cream...

    My scale is tared to 5 pounds above zero.

    It makes me feel better that I get to subtract 5 off the reading.

    Similarly, I add 1 to 1.5 lbs to my "recorded" weight compared to what my scale says, and I only log when my weight reaches a new low. It feels good to look at my report and see only consistent losses, and when there aren't losses, I can remind myself that I've been adding a pound each time anyways.

    Clotted cream is amazing and a British institution. I will insist upon you trying it!

    I definitely need to go to dollywood! I'm so looking forward to the food side of things.

    I never thought of that--when I weigh on the Dr.'s scale there is so much difference between my scales and her's I think that will tone down some of the scale shock! I ate a pint of Ben and Jerry's chocolate cooky dough icecreat two days ago--didn't log it either because it was 225 calories per 1/2 c--BAD ME!

    I've had Pop Rocks and Pixy Stix and I think my eating-straight-sugar days are probably behind me...stuff like that is what you remember fondly from your childhood but when you actually taste it again it is NOT what you remember, lol.

    Firecracker bars! I don't remember the brand. But dark chocolate, sea salt, chili and pop rocks! YUM!

    Trader Joes did a firecracker bar. Yum

    How do you pronounce this? My brain keeps telling me its pronounced Slow, but I am sure I am wrong. (I usually am about pronouncing things)

    not sure how to write the pronounciation, it is sl-ow as in 'ow i hurt my finger'

    Or as we call it, sluff ;)

    Hm. I would not have guessed that pronunciation.

    Of course, I once had an interview in Worcester (or as they call it locally, Wister).

    Now ya'll get your tongue around Leicester

    Ummm, no idea.

    How about Weippe, Kamiah, or Kuna? (Idaho towns)

    I have a friend from Kamiah!

    Snoqualmie, Enumclaw, Skamokawa are Washington ones - the Northwest has the fun tribal names that try to trip people up.

    Q-na (Which is where I went to school. Kuna Kavemen. True story.)

    Language is weird.

    I believe there is a town somewhere int he states called Cairo but pronounced kay-ro, unlike its Eygptian counterpart.

    True story. Also, Kentucky has a Versailles - but pronounced Ver-sails rather than the French pronunciation.

    Now THAT I would eat. I need to Google this. Chili dark chocolate is my all time favourite.

    I haven't heard of chili and chocolate either. I am apparently quite sheltered.

    It's icky. I couldn't get anybody in my house to eat it when I bought it to try.

    See? Zinc 2x in this ONE post! :)

    Was zinc officially added to our Bingo cards?! If so, O76.

    I believe it was officially added.

    Yes, I out a bingo ball for it in the caller basket a few.days ago. Vote: Should I add rewearing sweaty / smelly workout clothes?
    (you do realize that I have volunteered to be caller because the caller can't lose, right?)

    Edit: Out should be put. And I should put in a ball for every time I say I can't type on my phone.

    Yes, I definitely think that should be added. But you can't play either, Mel.

    I know we're missing ones, but I can't remember them right now.

    I'll post my proposed list tomorrow and take additions until Saturday 7pm EST.

    On Sunday, our first game will start. I don't mind not playing, Mo. I just want to have fun with the struggles we all share and thought we were alone in.

    Is it one of those Cadbury ones? I think I've seen them but I'm not much for milk chocolate so I've been scared to try them.

    They are, the chocolate is pretty light. Now the firecracker ones mentioned I need to find those

    I confess I didn't get it, originally...

    Me either. I thought she was commenting on herself! Figured she ate some of those gummy bears....

    Oh that one would be good? What are those Haribo gummy bears? They come up periodically...but the do involve the dreaded pooping I so hate. (BTW, I WILL NEVER TRY THOSE because of this thread).

    It's the sugar-free ones you have to watch for. Those and Pure Protein bars.

    Oohh...should I add Quest bars?

    I'm hoping to get a decent time in California in May and then hopefully BQ in December for 2018.

    True....

    And if we go together we can spend the weekend in Boston and be tourists! :)

    There it is! It all works out so well! :wink:
    For the record - I am running to finish to marathon. That is my goal. Maybe TK will BQ again, if his calves will finally behave again. He ran same year as you POF.

    If I'm going to run a BQ in December, I'm really going to have to start training sometime this year...
    And, I still have 15 lbs I want to lose.

    I need to be training too. Blister still may need another day to harden up, it is pretty tender and my heels may be bruised. I may eliptical it for a few days. I have 8 of my 10 pounds left to loose. :neutral:

    Did you do that on purpose?! :hushed:
    Nope. I'm horrible at phone typing though so we can pretend it was autocorrect. :wink:

    Mel, Is loose/lose on the Bingo card? Because if it is, I'm claiming this one! I-19.

    Nope. See. Here's the card...

    kxridb29fa6w.jpg

    That's the littlest 'bingo' card ever. I think you need more squares. Minimum 25.

    Eh. It was an on-line template...

    To do 5X5, with a free space in the middle, I need 14 more things. And I already added zinc. :#

    how about washing your sports bra by showering in it. that came up a few times.

    I rinse my swimsuit by showering in it. I'm just not that comfortable with my body as some people at the pool are.

    Do I get a bingo spot?

    Sure...why not, but I am not really tracking the game until Sunday.

    Tucson. Net downhill. BQ
    Recovery hike the next day (there are beautiful areas that are much easier than my most recent hike. We could take the tram to the top of Sabino canyon and walk down a four mile paved path) plus Sonoran Mexican food!!!!!!!!! And TKs pool plus @rungirl1973!!! And perfect weather.

    Dec would be 2018 not 2017.

    Well, you'll need 2018, too... LOL
    I'm hoping to get a decent time in California in May and then hopefully BQ in December for 2018.

    True....

    And if we go together we can spend the weekend in Boston and be tourists! :)

    There it is! It all works out so well! :wink:
    For the record - I am running to finish to marathon. That is my goal. Maybe TK will BQ again, if his calves will finally behave again. He ran same year as you POF.

    If I'm going to run a BQ in December, I'm really going to have to start training sometime this year...
    And, I still have 15 lbs I want to lose.

    I need to be training too. Blister still may need another day to harden up, it is pretty tender and my heels may be bruised. I may eliptical it for a few days. I have 8 of my 10 pounds left to loose. :neutral:

    Did you do that on purpose?! :hushed:
    Nope. I'm horrible at phone typing though so we can pretend it was autocorrect. :wink:

    Mel, Is loose/lose on the Bingo card? Because if it is, I'm claiming this one! I-19.

    Nope. See. Here's the card...

    kxridb29fa6w.jpg

    That's the littlest 'bingo' card ever. I think you need more squares. Minimum 25.

    Eh. It was an on-line template...

    To do 5X5, with a free space in the middle, I need 14 more things. And I already added zinc. :#

    how about washing your sports bra by showering in it. that came up a few times.

    I rinse my swimsuit by showering in it. I'm just not that comfortable with my body as some people at the pool are.

    Do I get a bingo spot?

    Are they public showers? If so I would do this too.

    I don't think so... as you aren't really washing it...you are covering up. But Quik and Mo always say I am too strict so I'll leave it up to them.

    You get a thank you from me for not performing the naked shower yoga favoured by lots of ladies at my gym, haha. Like, I don't care if you're naked, that's fine, it's a locker room, that's what it's for, but I don't understand why it's necessary to be contorting like that when there's a bunch of mirrors RIGHT THERE displaying your, um, moves to the entire locker room.

    I don't know what they're actually doing, but it's weird and it makes me unhappy, haha. Ditto the ones blowdrying their nether regions.

    Ok, luckily I have never ever seen this. And Yes, 4 showers in one big open space. and EVERYONE but me gets completely stark nekid and I find it so disturbing. Worse was the lady who didn't even wrap a towel around herself to get back to her locker and STOPPED TO CHAT with some other lady and I was not going to go around her, so I just waited. ugh.. just too comfortable in their own skin

    That's not a bingo square, that's modesty. And the lady who is chatting stark naked is inconsiderate. I am so glad my gym has private showers.

    Yes, exactly, we don't have the fizzy powder on this side of the Atlantic, so as far as I knew they were both just names for non-dairy frozen desserts (although the Google explanation claims that there is indeed some milk in the "sherbet" iteration, which I wasn't aware of and could probably not distinguish a difference between. I assumed it was an Americanised spelling thing vs our clinging onto the French.

    You need to have the fizzy powder version of sherbet. Will rot your teeth and maybe make you hyperactive but it's awesome !

    I may need to try this when I am in England...

    I will make a list and stock up on all the things you need to try

    Yes! And you need to try candy corn... I haven't forgotten! And off to Dollywood we go! Full agenda!

    I am still not too keen on clotted cream...

    Clotted cream is amazing and a British institution. I will insist upon you trying it!

    I definitely need to go to dollywood! I'm so looking forward to the food side of things.[/quote]

    I wanna go to Dollywood!!!

    I am severely addicted to peanut butter. Especially white chocolate wonderful peanut butter. I have ate 1/3 of the jar in one sitting before when craving something sweet.
