Day sixty-one.

I could have taken a photo of little Ethan pouring glue all over the church's carpet, or my Astronomy teacher demonstrating the laws of planetary physics by spinning himself around a stool. But I did not bring my camera to document these things, unfortunately. So today is a picture of food, yet again. Cereal is one of my favorite foods--I made some homemade granola filled with:
2 cups oats

1/4 cup flax seed
1/4 cup sunflower seeds
1/3 cup sesame seeds
1/4 cup raisins
1/4 cup dates

1/4 cup sliced almonds
1/2 cup natural crunchy peanut butter
1/2 cup honey
1 tsp vanilla
5 Tbs butter
and baked at 300 ºF for 30 minutes.

So good, especially with soymilk.

March 2nd is also Spread the Word to End the Word day! As Mary Garner once said in her book The Hidden Souls of Words, "All too often, we are unaware of the words that control our lives." I hear the r-word being used daily in several of my classes. I know people aren't out to offend others, but the word retard(ed) does do that.
