Happy hump day everyone!

Karla, that is a great programme you have over there. I wish that we had classes like that...

Bonus Question:

What is your "superpower " !! ? My commanding tone. Few can argue this superpower (only DS has a habit of not listening anyway )


Extra Credit Question:
Yesterday a few folks answered I have a few pairs of jeans I hope to fit back into, So it made me curious

Do you have clothes in your closet that you keep hoping to either lose a few pounds or that they will come back "in style" so you can wear them again ? Yes, since my belly is growing most of my clothes don't fit anymore and I expect them to fit again next summer! But usually I get rid of clothes that don't fit me pretty easy to get new space for new clothes

Just for Fun:

Have you ever had Yorkshire Pudding?
No.

Not sure if you have seen it,but there is a TV show on the Science Channel called "How it's Made". It shows how everyday objects that people use are made. So, what everyday items(s) are you curious about and want to know "How it's made" ?

How is Nutella made... that's what enquiring minds want to know!

I'm Super Normie! I have amazing powers to sleep through anything!

A few, mostly kept for sentimental reasons rather than any hope I'll be wearing them again.


Curious Minds Question:
In honor of "gas Mask Day"

When was the last time you wish you had one ?

Hiking through a marshy swamp. Phew, mud that's been wet for a few days can smell bad.

[quote=KwaK;16242053]Good morning everyone

Happy Wednesday

Today is school day !! I really missed the kids last week

A few of you have asked about what I teach.
Our volunteer program teaches hands on science in classes at schools where the majority of the students come from low socio-economic backgrounds. A wonderful part of the program is teaching nutrition by teaching the kids how to grow vegetables and fruits and enjoy them.
We also bring different fruits & veggies into classroom for the kids to try
lol Yeah that means this "selective eater" gets stuck trying them too I tried the "I will wait to make sure everyone can have seconds" line

So know that you know what I do on "School Wednesdays" and why I am always in rush to get to the school, I better hurry up and ask

Today's Question(s):
Not sure if you have seen it,but there is a TV show on the Science Channel called "How it's Made". It shows how everyday objects that people use are made.

Bonus Question:

What is your "superpower " !! ? Sometimes, I can spot trends before they hit.


Extra Credit Question:
Yesterday a few folks answered I have a few pairs of jeans I hope to fit back into, So it made me curious

Do you have clothes in your closet that you keep hoping to either lose a few pounds or that they will come back "in style" so you can wear them again ? Guilty.


Curious Minds Question:
In honor of "gas Mask Day"

When was the last time you wish you had one ? Never thought I needed one.

No, but I have two Yorkshire Terriers.
