The Cult of Lincoln

Wednesday, December 06, 2006



Finished Cursor's Fury, third book in Jim Butcher's Codex Alera series. Great googly moogly, that was fabulous! It may be popcorn, Jim, but it's really, really, really, really good popcorn.

Um, everyone should read The Dresden Files! Of which this book is not a part, but still.

Tonight was also our last Feminist Fairy Tales class, and the Rice Krispie Treats I made for the occasion went over quite well! I learned to my shock and horror that Ko had never seen a Rice Krispie Treat made by actual humans, only those packaged and sold premade. Is this a cultural thing? A "Ko was homeschooled" thing? A "Ko is just a freak, what loser has never made Rice Krispie Treats" thing? Or god forbid, a "Priscilla is just a freak, what nerd still makes Rice Krispie Treats in this day and age" thing? Ticky-box?

I feel the need to stick up for home-schooled people now, I was homeschooled and we made rice-krispies treats quite frequently :)

...we also made our own playdough and crayons because I think being homeschooled ends up equaling being rather bored most of the time :D

You also used to make mud pies as a child. I'm glad that you didn't try to serve them to Ko and your classmates.
Much love,
Dad
 
At camp this summer we had Rice Krispie treats at one meal, and one girl said "I don't like these Rice Krispie treats, I think they're homemade." And I was like "Well, yes, they make them in the kitchen... I think they're really good!" And she said "I only like the packaged kind."

And I said, aslkdaslk;asd.
