Day 124 (5/4/11) - Weird Science


Oh, yippee. A science experiment in our very own home. I am sure the reason behind this was that it is quite messy. Jared had to fill a jar with equal layers of honey, syrup, dishwashing liquid, vegetable oil, water (with food coloring), rubbing alcohol (with food coloring) and somehow manage to do it carefully so the layers stay in tact. Carefully? Apparently the science teacher never had a 13-year-old boy. I guess it all worked out fine. In the end he had to drop two objects in the mess. The screw obviously sunk to the bottom and the rubber band ended up somewhere between the dish soap and syrup. I'm still not sure what WE learned from this.
