Hi friends, I thought Id share another fun little recipe with you today. Lately, Ive been making it a goal to try one new, delicious treat for my family each week.

They think I'm being rhetorical. Certainly, there must be some sort of pre-determined course of study. After all, that's how school worked for most of us. It's what school is. Of course, maybe I ought not call what I do "school" at all.

Videos show students putting metal such as aper clips, folded foil gum wrappers and springs into the charging ports of the devices.
