meara, it was hilarious, and we are keeping it strictly for comic value at this point. That and it's how she looks.

Grace came home with an 80% on her math test from last week.

Me: "Did you cheat Grace?"
Grace: "Yes."
Me: "WHAT?! How? Did you copy someone's answer?"
Grace: "Yes."

But then when I asked her if she looked at Eric's paper and she said yes I asked her how, since they have privacy barriers and she said, she didn't.

Grace confuses me.

OK, here's another cooking tip: My grandmother always had a box of latex gloves in her kitchen, and I took them home. My mother thought I was wacky, but guess what? I just wore them to peel and cut beets, and no mess! Awesome. It will be even better when I chop hot peppers.

Oh Grace.

It was much easier when she only got 1 out of 25. IF she was cheating then, she was doing a horrible job at it.

Someone at the store asked how I'd hurt my foot. Since my right shoe was untied at the moment, I told them that I'd tripped on my shoelaces with a straight face and then hobbled on out, floppy shoelaces and all.

She's clearly practicing to be an Evil Overlord. Just hasn't figured out deception just right.

I love the ridonkulous school pictures.

When a blender can no longer blend tofu I would say its useful life is over.

Why do you need to blend tofu? What does one do with blended tofu??

I am watching NPR Tiny Desk Concerts. I just got to one with the Cranberries. WHOA. The voice sounds so different when they are just standing at a desk in the office singing.

Why do you need to blend tofu? What does one do with blended tofu??

Among other things, it makes a good egg substitute for some recipes. 1/4 cup blended tofu = 1 beaten egg.

Thirty is a very respectable age for a blender.

Oh, Grace. That's very confusing!

Chopping pepper with gloves on is amazing. I ran out of my box of disposable gloves and haven't re-upped, maybe I should make a shopping list and put those on it. So handy! Pun not intended, but now that I see it, I like it and am claiming it.
