I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Soak em and cook em and find out, lisah. For science.

Have extracted myself from beneath the cat. Onward to breakfast.

Thank you, Aurelia. Yes - so sad.

I am going to be winding yarn this afternoon.

I have lost the hat I made in the Fall and have not yet found the other two hats I have made and alas - cold weather is not over.

Also: there was a Womenspirit conference at my church (UU) and a concert featuring Emma's Revolution last night and they came and played at services this morning and then the Buddhist group met for meditation and lively discussion so I feel as though I've had a really full day already.

I just reuse the same beans for blind baking. I've been using the same ones for years. (There's always parchment between the crust and the beans.)

"gommel"

Gomach is Gaelic for idiot/fool...at least in Cape Breton. So maybe it's some kind of variant of a similar word. Not that Gaelic ever makes any sense to me.

Maybe it's Scottish not Irish.

ETA: A horse named Irish War Cry beat the early Derby favorite in the Holy Bull yesterday.

Interesting. My great-grandmother was from Cork and the peolple I asked about the word were on the Aran Islands so it may be a micro-regional term.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Dictionary.com says that there is a Scottish word "gomeral" which means fool.

I've seen "gomeral" in Golden Age British mystery books.

Thrive to spite them

Is Riverdale being talked about in a specific thread? I've seen it mentioned but don't remember where and I've watched the first episodes

Newfoundland Dictionary has gommel as a stupid person, according to this: [link]
