[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
The experiments sound neat, like putting different kinds of fat in test tubes, heating it, and observing changes. Or putting milk in a test tube and then adding acid and observing the results and then adding acid and soda and then milk to a test tube, observing those results and drawing conclusions between the two tests and the practical application for cooking.
That does sound nifty. I wish my 7th grade home ec class had done that.
It's also interesting to read about the dietary guidelines for children.
According to this book there was a difference of opinion about the use of meat in a child's diet. Some experts advise beef broth and more easily digestible meats for small children. Others say milk and eggs only are better and not to give children meat until they are 8 years old. Also no raw fruits until at least age five. Only cooked fruits and fruit juice, esp stewed prunes and fresh oj because they are good laxatives.

One of the items on the wish list for an animal shelter I volunteer for is meat-only baby food. I'm kind of boggled to know there is such a thing.
Ibuprofen taken, dishes done. Now a shower, and then a book or DVD. Need to decide if I'm going cathartic (FNL) or opposite mood (not sure what that would be). StW is having a cranky night, too, and being an introvert he prefers to spend it alone, so I'll have to make do with Frankie snuggles.
Are you staying in or do you think you'll go to the courtyard? I wanted to make an appearance but my motivation is low.
Nora, staying in. Wanna come by and meet my roommate and peer at the new kitty?
eta or you could come by and we could wander over together.
Also no raw fruits until at least age five.
However did our ancestors survive?
I'm getting kind of nervous about the start of the semester. I keep getting stuck in an "I don't know how to teach and all my students will fail" loop.
Seska, insent.

If you weren't nervous that would be more surprising. I'm not a teacher or particularly mathy, but I have seen how dedicated and responsible you are about your career and am confident your students are in good hands.
