Did you know that you can make scrambled eggs out of flaxseeds?

Just kidding, you really can't, but apparently some people think it may be possible...

I've been playing around with vegan recipes lately and found a great egg replacement for baked goods (it works very well, by the way, but giving you an egg replacement recipe really isn't the point of this post).

Anyway, in response to this recipe, a user responded with this comment... (I hope to God she wasn't serious, but I have a feeling she was)

Funk E Fresh

I went to the Teen Filmmakers Festival on Sunday and this video won Best Music Video.

A gift for the garbage man?

I was on my way to the grocery store tonight and couldn't help but notice the large 1/4" thick poster out with my neighbor's recycling bin and trash can. I guess after you've had your second kid it's probably time to get rid of stuff like this...?

I kind of have an urge to go back and put a red bow on it.


*Poster Update: On my way to the bank this morning I decided to check if the poster was still there. The garbage truck had not been by yet, but it was gone!

Physical Activity and Avoiding Late Fees

Adam and I went for a run today and decided to multi-task and return a movie at the same time. Neither of us wanted to carry it for almost 2 miles, so this was his solution.




After we returned the movie, I wanted to bring a grapefruit home from the store, but he refused to tape the grapefruit on him during the run back.

I hope my readers like cats as much as I do.

This is Winston.

My sister asked if he was part Bobcat today... haha what?? Seriously. Bobcat??

How to make a fart box.

OK, so you're probably wondering, what exactly is a fart box? It is an innovative device that I designed when I was 5 years old. It basically turns terrible smelling gas into something a bit... prettier. How does it work, you ask? Well, the fart travels through the device and out through a scented dryer sheet. Here's how you can make one:

1. Find a tissue box. Choose one with a fun design to make it even more fashionable!


2. Cut the bottom of the box off, and leave about a 1" border.



3. Make 2 holes on either side of the box, toward the bottom and tie strings or ribbons (long enough to go around your waist) through both of the holes.


4. Staple or tape a scented dryer sheet over the hole on the top of the box. Arm & Hammer Mountain Rain smells pretty darn good. Each dryer sheet should be good for up to 100 farts.


5. Strap that baby on and fart away! Just simply tie around your waist.


6. Personalize your fart box. Add some bling, jewels, or stickers. Write your name, or the name of your fart box, in puffy paint. Fart box charms would be really cool too. Here is what I did. His name is Marvin. I gave him a mustache, suspenders, and a set of headphones. He's listening to "She Drives Me Crazy" by The Fine Young Cannibals.

Jacob Maurice

My cat. He likes to sit like a person. I have a really great video of him sitting like that with his tail in between his hind legs and wagging it back and forth, but I can't find it!





And these photos are from when he was skinny!
