sass and sensibility

"I don't see much sense in that," said Rabbit. "No," said Pooh humbly, "there isn't. But there was going to be when I began it. It's just that something happened to it along the way."

Gerber babies...and baby prevention

Today's school events are begging for a blog post. So here I am. Special thanks to Cody and his picture phone for capturing the following shot. The biology classes have been studying genetics, so this could be a new member of the plant kingdom. We're thinking we could make quite a bit of money selling these things...

Yes kids, that is probably the only condom plant you will ever see. Unless we propagate them, in which case maybe one day you too could own one!

note of clarification: this was discovered by a teacher during all school cleanup...we did not intentionally plant a condom just to take a picture...

Anyways, to recap, this year I have been told that I resemble Audrey Hepburn and Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Let's add another to the list.
Basketball Star: You know what you look like? An over-sized Gerber baby.
Energetic School Spirit Girl: That's a compliment! Gerber babies are always pretty.

For comparison, here is the original Gerber baby...

Ways I resemble the Gerber baby:
1. I'm white.
2. ...that's all I've got...


I sort of feel like any other stories I have are anticlimactic. So enjoy those two. I'll share more later :)

I'd say condom plants are better than a bunch of new little Gerber Babies running around all over the place. But Alexis, you do have that certain wide-eyed curiosity about you. Oh, look! Feldspar! Can I eat it?

I'd say if a condom plant was able to reproduce, it must not be very effective...
