Sometimes living with a science teacher can be an adventure. Our kitchen regularly doubles as a laboratory - I have had beakers and household chemicals and crystal growing medium on my kitchen counter for two weeks now.
This experiment here is called liquid layers. Everyone has played around with oil and water and watched the amazing way they separate. Well, Mike took it a few steps farther. Nine to be exact. The layers are honey, corn syrup, maple syrup, milk, dish soap, water, vegetable oil, alcohol, and kerosene. It is hard to believe, but the entire column is liquid.
I love that our kids are being raised with passion for science, music, and art. Josh and Drew think it is the neatest thing in the world when Dad brings work home with him. I have to admit, other than losing a little counter space, I think it is pretty cool too.
