jabberwacky: beautiful
August 30, 2008
Since we haven’t Jabberwackyed in a while, here’s a refresher on how this works.
- Post the first word or phrase that comes to mind when you read the word above yours in the comments.
- You can challenge the preceding commenter to explain if you don’t understand the connection they made when they wrote their word. (If you know your word choice won’t make sense to others, take time to explain it.)
Starter word: beautiful (compliments of Melissita over at Nature Girl)

ab: oh.my.gosh.
puke? Umm……
GROSS
milktart — faiths code name for lizzard
AB – yes, dear.
@ngie – does not liking rice & beans pose a challenge living in a hispanic country??!!
[and apparently i've got the recipe for some AWESOME milktart!!!]
what????
oh i just got that. Nope I got me some “lizard” already today! i’m good in that department!
nice
@ngie doesn’t like rice and beans?!?! oh dear. oh. dear.
for some reason when I read milktart I think milkfart. I don’t know why. And it’s gross.
working from GROSS…
net
dang a wet one
Alece will you send it to me sometime? For the real milktart food, not AB’s version of what I think it is! hehe
[faith - i'll try to get you one... i hate milktart and have never even made one!]
@atangie says:
g&g – beans are not a big thing in this country and actually potatoes are a bigger deal than rice. When we were in Costa Rica for a month they served us beans and rice everyday for breakfast and p.b.&j. for lunch. I couldn’t figure out why I was puking every day until the last few days of the trip I found out I was pregnant with our for child. (totally off topic – but Charlene might remember that). So now beans and rice are just yucky to even think about.
did faith get mid day lizzard?! (why are we spelling it with two z’s tonight? Now I’m confused.)
Alece, we need to exchange recipes. Or not. You could just give me yours. Or whatever. I’m sure there’s no bitter in your milktart. HAHAHA!!
HAHAHAHA!! FILKFART!!! is cracking me up!!!
@atangie says:
(edit: first not for)
(dang a wet one– hahahahahahahaha!!!*snort*)
faith
http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/South-African-Melktert-Milk-Tart/Detail.aspx
try that
yup I sure did! yesterday too. (oh Dan will kill me for telling, he’s so modest!)
Okay Faith just took milkfart to filkfart and I can’t stop laughing. *blush*
dude no lizard around the food .. gross
[angie -- wow. craziness. and i really don't like beans, so... blech for me too!]
@Faith: my oh my what a wonderful day. Or days. haha!
go dan go
AB awesome! I will have to make it this week! I am going to crave it till i eat it! Thanks!
milktert is worse than milktart. just sayin’. I live with boys. My mind goes there. *sigh*
And it looks gross. Like custard. Which I can’t eat. *blech*
what the tart or the lizard
HAHAHA!! Well it’s not like this every day! oh and AB MY kid happens to be a blast of fun! I will let you know if it changes though
brandy — never judge a tart by the looks
judge away, brandy. i’m not a fan of the tart.
where ARE we????!!!
lizard tart
@atangie says:
all over the place :-)
I know a tart when I see one. She is usually dressed like one.
I will try your milktart and let Jake test it. He loves a good tart.
Of the food variety.
is any of your husbands watching nascar right now?
where are we? At the g&g where it’s always hoppin’.
Did I just come out of the 50′s?!
NO. A big NEGATORY on that one AB. ;-)
He’s watching HGTV “My first place” HAHA!!
mmm like red high heels?
@atangie says:
My husband is watching season 2 of Prison Break on line… from some asian website
its like a custard with a soft crust, right? I haven’t had one in forever!
dude i watched the first two seasons of frasier like that when we got here to aleces moms house .. i love those asians
red heels?! hahah!
No, tarts who wear red heels have class. HIGH class. And tarts who give red heels as gifts are tarts for life. HA! HA! HA! HA!!!!
Prison Break starts this week! New season! Woohoo! yummm.
I did NOT say yum.
mine is watching sports page on chicago sports
asians?!
yes a little bit of mushy and a little bit of soft makes for a great tart
@atangie says:
We’ve done ‘Hero’, ‘Lost’, and a few movies that way. i love the asians too.
I have the mushy and soft down. LOL! haha!
thats funny all the hubbies are watching tv!!!
I love Lost. Lost is amazing. I’m super excited about this new season!
i love mushy in red heals .. what a gift
asians bootleg the crap out of everything and so you can go watch stuff on this site that you cant read or understand a thing.. awesome
oh wait, he was NOT watching “My first place.” He was watching “Property Virgins.” Great show.
Faith, I’m in front of the tv as well. On the couch.
i watched 4 seasons of lost in like 3 weeks on abc.com! they have it streaming!
@atangie says:
There are dozens of sites like that.
I love watching tv online. anytime. anywhere. no commercials!
@atangie says:
abc.com is blocked down here…
it’s like i bloged about the other day! i guess we all spend our nights like this!
abc.com blocked? shame. (alece you have rubbed off on me. first time using shame. haha)
brandy he is watching that with the boys… what kind of education are you guys doing over there.. with the lizards and tarts and virgins
we’re old milkfarts I guess.
no no ab, now the boys are playing playdoh. It’s like party central for them tonight. Late naps will do that. ;-)
i love saying shame! thats and “fraut” I don’t think thats how you spell it, but for when things like milk go bad, they go fraut.
and icecream
I have NEVER heard of fraut! haha!
oh man your boys are still up!!?? My husband wants to know what kind of a husband watches hgtv!! sorry
ab, now he’s watching something assnasty with a guys arm…skin peeled back all the way to reveal all his muscle under his arm….oh my gosh it’s SICK. SICK!
wow….. the comments are getting interesting on here….. and somewhat confusing to follow….
now that sounds more like a mans show! haha
ASSNASTY ????
PLEASE KEEP IT FAMILY FRIENDLY ….
Jake and I LOVE HGTV…. like “House Hunters” “Propert Virgins” “My First Place” love it. He’s good like that. ;-) haha!!
My boys are ONLY still up b/c I put them down for a LATE LATE nap and then they got to watch a movie with daddy, then have ice cream, and now I’mletting them do play doh and then it’s bed. ;-)
OR IS THAT THE WORD WE NEED TO PLAY???
i thought that was funny, for a girl who hates the f bomb!
I meant one S I swear! :(
@atangie says:
yep – swearing – that is the issue :-)
that is what she said
shame dude you are not ever going to live that down just so you know
one S and a * haha! My mind got carried away. Does no one else say that? hmmm. Yes Faith, I hate the F*bomb, but I must confess, I…. (shh, come close)… slip and swear on occasion. *SHOCK*
theres that “shame” again
ok i also like the house thing .. i think it is because i like it when people take crapp and turn it into something nice
faith what do you guys watch ? and what does dan do for a living?
i have a potty mouth! Brandy. When you were talking about the f bomb the other night, Dan was swearing at the ball game he was watching. it was a little funny!
i love jesus but cuss a little
and then do the lizzard dance
Brandy – if it makes you feel better, I have at least heard that word before… of course, where I work, I think [on a bad day] I’ve heard about every word in the book…
Didn’t Alece post something a while back about a lady that said, “I love Jesus, but I drink a little?”
@atangie says:
AHHHH – you put a lizzard!!! :-)
lizard dance??
Dan watches sports a lot and the office is one of his fav shows
he fixes industrial compactors and cardboard balers. like at walmarts and big company’s!
its his dads business but he mostly runs it
Ha ha…. awesome pic, anti-blogger
ok true story :::
i preached once at a big event or church .. can’t remember but i preached about us livng like the son who left home and so now he has nothing and so on…i then went on to get everybody like fired up like u preachers do and then shouted …. “it is time to get out of the pig sty!”
but i said “pigsh!t”
no joke i felt like pig sty stuff…
never preached that again
I love Jesus.
I like to drink.
My favorite swear word is the S word. It’s a family trait that I swear is genetic.
And I don’t always act like a good Christian. Especially when I’m mad and bitter. LOL!
off to put bad boys to bed now. ;-)
@cassgirl says:
I swear…. sometimes
Today, actually I did it right in front of my pastor’s wife, she looked at me and I laughed.
((blushed))
oh Brandy, me too, me too.
oh except for drink, im not at all into that right now.
@atangie says:
Wow AB…
Wow Brandy…
Wow Heidi…
Why do I feel the sudden need to confess something to Priest G&G?
@cassgirl says:
Let me do the blessing..
Okay go for it !!
we just heard in church today that confessing that you have a weakness is good, that way God can use that weakness for His glory to help others.
[can i just say that moments like this make my heart swell? i LOVE my blog family!]
where is Alece gone too?
@atangie says:
Um… ok… tonight at church we did a round table style discussion about judging others and I was totally judging some of our church members as we were talking.
@atangie says:
Um… ok… tonight at church we did a round table style discussion about judging others and I was totally judging in my mind some of our church members as we were talking.
oh there you are! we love you too! now Dan is watching Dane Cook. hes funny
“Why do I feel the sudden need to confess something to Priest G&G?”
That made me laugh. Thank you, @ngie.
and they keep BLEEPING him
heidi i am watching nascar running in souther california and you guys had an amazing sunset..

@cassgirl says:
I just sat down to an amazing plate of tacos too!!!
Come on @ngie.. spill it sister
@atangie says:
Happy to oblige Jen. :-)
angie — alece watches judging amy a lot and then she plays her in our house….
judging my actions and sentencing me to lizard time and so on
@atangie says:
Look up at the comment at 10:54 Heidi…
a nachos now we are talking
@atangie says:
I have never seen that show, I will have to check it out so that I can mimic her too.
Alece sound like a tough sentencer! ;-)
i almost got nachos at a fair tonight but then remembered IM ON A DIET!!
but i did manage to get elephant ears in there, go weight watchers!
@atangie says:
So do I have your blessing Heidi? :-)
@cassgirl says:
@ngie, we have all done that. Do you think they were judging you??
@cassgirl says:
tacos with mango salsa, totally outrule nachos!!!
is lizard sentencing a good thing?
@atangie says:
That is what I was judging them for – such irony! But, hey, you asked. Such a vicious cycle…
@cassgirl says:
Unfortunately it gets worst when you move up in the ladder too.
now dan is watching “worlds heaviest man” im getting grossed out, I am judging him! ooops sorry! Im a sinner!
@atangie says:
There has been some not-so-nice talk floating around – - – so, yes, I know that they were judging…. but that doesn’t give me the right to stoop to their level.
1225 lbs!! thats 1100 more than me!!! give or take a few!!
Niel said pigsh!t.
Don’t we all judge to some degree? My WORST worst worst is that I judge b/c I *think* “they” are judging me. “They” being anyone I feel nervous around or intimidated by. It sucks. And I rarely have such low self confidence, unless it’s someone I really want to be friends with. y/k? I hate being human. Sometimes.
@cassgirl says:
Very true… But I think it’s human nature…. I’m not giving permission, but I think like cussing it’s human nature. It’s how we control it.
do you think??
Faith you only weigh 125lbs?
I hate you.
In an “I like you” sort of way. heehee
Brandy are your boys down now?
this is pretty interesting, but unfortunately the melatonin has kicked in (or maybe it’s a good thing depending on your point of view).
Either way… Good night.
Yes Haydee. I agree.
I always worry about what others’ perception of me is. I hate that. It annoys me.
@atangie says:
Good night Jen.
Faith dear, yes they are down. And they went with a fight. I hate bedtime. That’s why Jake normally does it. I did it though since the “staying up late” was my idea. :/
no 129!! so dont hate me! i’m on a diet so it’s not like im a skinny bitch (ooops) who is just skinny by nature, I hate them! (no not really!)
@cassgirl says:
one of my legs weighs 125
@atangie says:
My deal is…
why do I put so much weight in the words of critics?
and yet when I receive compliments I try to play them down?
AAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! I LITERALLY just gasped and then burst out laughing. OH MY GOSH!! HAHAHAHA!!!!
Heidi i think you are so right!
@ngie, that is something I think about alll the time.
For instance, Jake is always always telling me I look (insert compliment here) and I always always roll my eyes and even sometimes get mad. Why? Why do I do that?
And the words of critics…. are sometimes my own words coming from someone else. It’s like they’ve said what I already think about myself. ugh.
Angie I think you are such a great woman for recognizing your fault. and your point is a good one. when you get a compliment keep it in your thoughts for a while!
@cassgirl says:
WHoa….
I dunno… I have a real problem with compliments, I become sarcastic to shy away from them.
But with criticism I hide in a corner
Faith, after three kids I will never weigh 129! ha!!
@atangie says:
Thank you Faith…
criticism makes me lash out. it’s not nice.
me too. But later when im alone I feel good about the compliment and savor it. i think it might have to do with how we are raised. did your parents give compliments to you?
@atangie says:
I lash out in my mind as a delayed reaction.
@atangie says:
parents lavished me with compliments…
@cassgirl says:
I don’t lash until I’ve had enough
wel i though i would never weigh this little again! it was work but now that i have lost it, it seems easy to keep off with the guide lines from weight watchers. I am so happy i did it too! (and so is dan, hehe)
all the time.
but when Jake does it, I haven’t showered all day, I have no makeup on, I’m wearing cut off sweats and a t-shirt that has food or paint or spit on it, and I’m gross. So I never believe him and I think he’s lying. But when *I* feel good about how I look, I love his compliments. *shrug*
I lash when I feel attacked. I only feel attacked when it’s something near and dear to me…. like criticism of how I parent, what kind of wife I am, what kind of homemaker I am…..basically all things I am not confident about already.
@atangie says:
Good point Brandy about being in agreement about the compliments when you are feeling good about yourself
ME TOO Brandy!! Dan does the same thin and I finally yelled at him to quit calling me sexy when im not! HAHA what horrible husband’s we have!
I feel like he’s lying when I KNOW I look bad and he compliments me. Lying or asking for something. HA!!
It annoys me.
@atangie says:
Hey – Brandy – did you get your prize yet?
ya i get the asking thing, hehe and thats when your not in the mood, when your all dirty from the day. Right?
Yes @angie I did! I posted about it, but I think ALece is going to post about it too. ;-)
Faith, absofreakinlutely right!
@atangie says:
yeah!
dude and then miss heidi over here loathe certain things on her new blog and i tell you judging is the name of her game… you guys should check it out..
giving grace and permission and then judging those who forgot to restock the paper at the toilet is a bit ….what can i say … rough…
anyway i think judging stuff isnt that bad .. judging people is healthy sometimes…
it is when we stop loving them because of the judgement …therefore just to be clear … even though i judge you guys for blogging … i love you all like my man jesus….
angie, you hit it on the head with your comment:
“why do I put so much weight in the words of critics? and yet when I receive compliments I try to play them down?”
that’s me, too.
ok dan needs the computer now and I am starving. Love to you all! It’s been great chatting again! night
where did AB and Alece go?
Lizardlyhuggaboochin I’m sure. ;-)
oh. there they are. HAHA!!
Night Faith!! Great night!
@atangie says:
AB
like the the eight pound six ounce baby Jesus? :-)
And that was the main point of the discussion: when is it ok / necessary to judge and when is it unacceptable.
@atangie says:
Night Faith. :-)
eesh.
I’d like to hear someone’s answer to that. My own answer wouldn’t make sense outside of my head!
@atangie says:
“Lizardlyhuggaboochin” HA! :-)
I was lookin for a third word to throw in there but I couldn’t think of one. ;-)
@cassgirl says:
@ngie, when you NEED A HEALTHY role model to look up too or when you judge your son’s choice of a girlfriend .
@atangie says:
answer to what?
just so you ladies know i think it is ok for men to say nice things to their ladies when they dont look like they just came from their anniversery dinner and so on.. sometimes we even like you in those day s you dont feel we should and then we still want to compliment you … tell you you are beautifull and so on…never understood the whole thing anyway ….woman says you should talk and tell them how nice they look and so on and that puts them in the mood and then like now they say why do thye say stuff just to get us in the mood?????how else do we get you in the moo for lizardboochin
i love you, AB!
Lizardlyhuggaboochinassnasty
3rd word for you
AB: here’s the thing…. I’m gross. I haven’t showered all day. I’m still in my jams. I’ve been SICK sick allll weekend. I don’t even look like myself. And yet he STILL says “honey you’re hot!” when clearly I’m not. CLEARLY. It feels patronizing.
What would get me in “the mood” on days like that would be if he said “go take a hot bath, I’ve got dinner cleanup and bedtime” or “why don’t you lock yourself in your room for a while and do whatever you want” or “is there anything you want me to do?”
Yes. THOSE things would get me in the mood for lizardboochin.
@atangie says:
Yes, Heidi, so true
assnastilylizardlyhuggaboochin. haha!!
huggalizardboochassnastilin.
oh dear.
oh dear is right.
cant wait to play scrabble with some pastors
HAHAHA!!!
Hey AB, we can all see your lizard.
(alece, got your comment. OH. MY.)
@cassgirl says:
It’s not all about words AB, it’s about action, I would love to hear that I was beautiful after a long hot day from work in my car. But it doesn’t always happen from my husban…
But you know what EVERYDAY my son comes running up too me and hugs my legs and thats all worth it.
ALthough I am a firm believer of Words, my son’s actions speak louder
@atangie says:
It has been a good night on the G&G here. :-)
Alece – you have been a lovely hostess; as usual.
I am going to sleep. Good night dears. :-)
‘night, angie!
ok im back
and i do think we are to hard on our men. they never know what to do with us!
Haydee….Once Aidan told me I looked like a butterfly when I tried a dress on at the store. I bought the dress. I don’t know where I’ll wear it. But I know he thinks I look like a butterfly in it. :D
ok makes sense on the can i help thing and please go lock your self in a room or please go take a shower ….
but still we are a little slow in saying or asking the right thing and so we are also people of habbit .. meaning if it worked last time why not this time … so when it worked last time to give flowers and then get the lizardboochinass then guess what we as men think it will always work … i am personally always a bit in the darkness on what is really the signs of good times…. i understand that it takes more than the same thing but why cant we just ask .. hey what do you need me to do or say so you can be in the mood ???
not judging .. just saying and asking
night @ngie!
@cassgirl says:
I love their innocent love
heidi .. i dont think me running up to alece and grabing her leg is going to work for me….
ab that is funny! i think if you put it that blunt , you might never get layed!
Oh AB I would love to answer this:
hey what do you need me to do or say so you can be in the mood ???
Why do you (men in general) ONLY want to say/do these things in order to get us (wives) in the mood? Why can’t it be just to make us feel good about ourselves? or to give us a break? or to show us that you care about our mental well being?
I think what IRKS me the most is it (it being anything nice or complimentary) only gets said/done in order to receive something.
follow?
Faith you make me BLURT with laughter all the time. oh my gosh! hahahahaha!!!!!!
layed?
has AB never heard the term “get layed?”
*SHOCK*
oh i bet he is nice because he loves you too, but they just always want sex too
YES YES YES! that’s what i was going to say, brandy. i want my AB to tell me beautiful, wonderful, encouraging, TRUE things just because i deserve them. if and when i do.
that should be totally separate than trying to get me in the mood.
and i don’t think there’s anything wrong with having a conversation with your spouse about what helps them get in the mood.
while you ponder my question AB, I’m putting the Big O to bed.
be back!
thats blunt talk for huggabuching
No there’s nothing wrong with the conversation, but when we’ve had said conversation a MILLION times and it still doesn’t happen, reverting to the old lazy ways isn’t gettin ya anywhere either.
okay, off to put Mr O in bed. I swear.
LULABOOBIE!!!
men are just a little slow, brandy!
or at least that the lie i tell myself sometimes to keep from going crazy! “he can’t help it, hes slow!” or something like that
@cassgirl says:
AB — you might get lmore if you do. just sayin
I think words are can be deeper when theres no tangible want from it.
there’s six people on here and im chatting with myself!
STOP JUDGING ME.. in the voice of raymond barone
ok yes i agree we … the dence generation of men should maybe think of it more often to be in the compliment department without making it work for us department but i am just wondering how it will look if the roles are reverged ..
i am wondering what the ladies are doing the whole time to make us sing hallelujah
