Three Chips for Sister Marsha

I am, admittedly, a big fan of Alton Brown's Good Eats. Nearly ever episode is an outstanding balance between science education and useful cooking knowledge.

In the episode above (illegally posted but available for $1.99 on YouTube (if you want to be honest and good), Brown goes through three varieties of chocolate chip cookies with just one change each.

Check out images of the many ways that cookies can be varied with just one little switch each at this link (without the science explanation)...

Splitting Up

I appreciate that there's a brief moment of happiness before total annihilation.

I love the animation of the Ted talks.

I also love the weird chemistry of the past, things we didn't know back in the day would kill us but that we totally know about now.

Weirdly, I'd read about the wallpaper-Napoleon connection before.

And I love Fiestaware, though I only have the modern, non-uranium version.
