Mindthinkr December 24, 2022 Share December 24, 2022 From the other night. This was a Bansky I thought was neat. Tonight I came up with Earl Warren, salivary, and pollinization. I didn’t get FJ. Happy Holidays to everyone. Stay safe and keep warm 🥰 7 Link to comment

j5cochran December 27, 2022 Share December 27, 2022 (edited) Week fifteen: two of five - no asterisk. I tried an experiment, to make a treat for my bro-in-law who can't have caffeine or chocolate. I made browned butter blondies. Fabulous! I'll make another batch to share. Edited December 27, 2022 by j5cochran 4 1 1 Link to comment
Grundoon59 December 27, 2022 Share December 27, 2022 (edited) 3/5 (in the holiday hubbub, I lost track of what was an *) but I got Santa, Charlotte's Web and Evangeline [with a poetry and history loving Nova Scotia born, New England raised Father Grundoon I didn't have much choice on getting that one]. Laughed out loud at having missed Milk Duds - what a great origin story. I kept muttering "you know, that artist whose art disappeared" but came no where close to getting Banksy [and I realize that is a small part of his artistic history but it was what popped in my brain] Happy, healthy and safe holidays wishes to all! Grundoon holiday tradition includes strawberry jello salad which has 3 ingredients and which I will happily share. Edited December 27, 2022 by Grundoon59 spelling error 3 1 Link to comment

Clanstarling December 27, 2022 Share December 27, 2022 Speaking of Banksy, we watched a show called "The Outlaws" on Prime (I think), which was about a group of disparate people who had to do public service. It is a comedy/drama. Pretty good. Anyway what they were tasked to do was rehab a community center, and one of the scenes had them painting over a Banksy. As it turned out, it was a real Banksy that he did for the show. Blew my mind that it was a real Banksy. 3 2 Link to comment

Ailianna December 28, 2022 Share December 28, 2022 3/5 1*. We discussed the Here Comes Santa Claus at the office Christmas party and my boss thinks I'm super smart for loving J! He says he only gets two or three right each show. But he keeps watching, which maybe says something about why I think he's a good boss. 9 1 Link to comment
secnarf December 28, 2022 Share December 28, 2022 I don’t think I posted last week’s score in the midst of the holiday happenings, but it was a big fat zero. I shall blame all the wine. 4 2 Link to comment
