Home from a long, excellent day at Liberty Science Center with Joe and Sarah. We managed to catch 3 separate presentations -- the surgery one (creating a sterile space and doing surgery on a banana), Subzero: states of matter (fun with liquid nitrogen), and It's Electrifying (fun with Vandegraaff generators) -- as well as play with the language karaoke exhibit, catch some films on the Hudson estuary, and get a nice amount of time with the latest traveling exhibit: A T. Rex Named Sue. The takeout from the TickTock diner sucked mightily, though, so now I've got that itch for "fun" food. Wish I had some avocadoes (been craving them since A mentioned them the other day, and one of the failed dishes from the Tick Tock was sucktastic guacamole)...
Hmm... Garlic bread and refried beans might do the trick. And then it's dinner-and-a-movie. I think we're going to try introducing Sarah to Chamber of Secrets, see how that goes.
About Me
- Elizabeth
- I'm a homeschooling mom, an activist, a lifelong learner, an expatriate New Yorker, an amateur musician. I'm passionate about music, food (making it, eating it, and making sure it's safe, healthy, and plentiful for everyone), civil liberties, social justice, education reform, and books. My past lives have included stints in the fields of social work, tech support, and alternative education. My super secret goal is to be part of a band that's just good enough to play at local pubs and get paid in bottles of Original Sin hard cider. Well, that and to take over the world.
