Using some zinc powder, an instant cold compress and some salt, you can make a chemical that violently bursts into flame when it is exposed to even a few drops of water.
Zoe: Nobody's saying that, sir. Wash: Yeah, we're pretty much just giving each other significant glances and laughing incessantly.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Just saw ads for Bones and House! Whoo Hoo! The long summer doldrums are nearly over! And House is without a team!

I saw that ad -- it's funny. (Where he's using the custodian as his "team", right?)

House and Wilson, their love is so pure.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have a vision now of a clumsy stripper getting caught in the grapevine. Escape #2 would be very unlikely in that case.
Still no lemonade! I may be forced into manual labour.
I'll probably just eat the leftovers from my fruit salad making yesterday. Grapes and berries for miles because I can't visualise a pint or a quart.
Well, I can now that I remember how many cups are in either.
Strangely, one of the recipes specified 1 quart of strawberries and 9 ounces of grapes. The mixing v. confusing.
I have a lot of grapes left over.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That makes sense to me in a typical grocery store -- the strawberries are in pint/quart containers already, and you can weigh the grapes in a bunch.

The Bourne was good. Subway changes making me take a route without an elevator for one train was not. Grocery shopping alone with a child in wheelchair was challenging, but he was very good which is the only way I stayed sane.
We built a new model Lego castle, had mac & cheese for dinner, played beginner Uno, bathed, booked and he is asleep.
In an effort to reduce opportunities of stress, mac now has an agreed upon outfit for each school day for the rest of the summer. Only Saturday and Sunday will be left up for choice.
In the same vein, I have put together and hung up work outfits for the next week and a half.

I guess my grocery stores aren't typical. I bought (prepackaged) 2lbs of strawberries, 1lb of blueberries, and 6oz of raspberries. The portion of blueberries I normally buy is 6oz, as are the blackberries left over from my cobbler-making.
Yay, lego! Also great that he was behaving, msbelle. I can't imagine how stressful the procedure is for both of you.
