Non-Newtonian fun

My son has a book for boys and in it there was a recipe for Ooblek that he wanted to do. When I looked at it I saw that it was just corn starch and water. We’ve had a good time talking about physics and fluids. When he was 2 I would never have thought he’d be doing this.
National Lentil Festival 08
by ian on Aug.25, 2008, under General
This weekend was the National Lentil Festival here in Pullman. Despite what you might think it is quite the shindig. It seems to get bigger every year. There were 2 live music venues and it seems they keep expanding farther down the streets. It is a pretty good time. There was live music and free lentil chili on Friday night. We went and wandered around for an hour or so to check it all out. The kids got to sit in a fire truck and play on the big inflatible bouncy things.
Saturday was the parade. The weather was nice. It was a little warm. Andy over heated a little bit and I got a little sunburned. It was really fun anyway. If you ever get a chance I recommened you come and check it out some time.
