Here is a cute book you can read to your toddler or preschooler, and once again it has some really fun illustrations. I hope you enjoy it. Tomorrow I will be posting another “Science Saturday.” I had hoped I could show you the t-shirts we made using red cabbage, beets and spinach for dye. The project took nearly a week, and when I removed the shirts from the their sunbath jars they looked pretty good. But upon drying them their vibrant colors took a rather dreaded turn. If you have any experience in this area, and you want to share some tips please feel free to do so. I want to try it again.
Why pay to have someone detail your car when you can do it yourself for a fraction of the cost? To make it even easier you can purchase automotive detailing supplies from an online retailer. Don’t forget to visit on Science Saturday. I’ll be posting our next science experiment as soon as I get down “detailing” the car

Thank you very much! I can’t wait to see the illustrations! And I’m eager to see your t-shirts…I think I’m going to have some friends over to dye t-shirts soon.
What is Bear Grylls style???
Bear Grylls is this crazy british SAS guy who has a survialist show. My son and husband love to watch him.
I’m still working on the shirt situation. We bought regular dye at the store but I really wanted to be able to do it with vegetables. I remember when I was a kid every year we would go to a place called Malabar Farms. They would have different festivals. I was very small at the time, but I think we went to a pioneer festival. There were women with huge cast iron pots dying fabric with bearded irises. I know I probably sound like a dork, but I was in awe of the process. I had no idea you could dye cloth with flowers.
