Mentos and Diet Coke

This was a great video demonstrating the effect of Mentos combined with Diet Coke. The "scientists" set off Diet Coke geysers like the choreographed fountains you'd see if you visited the Bellagio fountains in Las Vegas.

It was fun to read what caused the geysers. I'm thinking my boys may enjoy this activity, if we're careful.

Sorry Julie, I'm an idiot. I didn't really mean to forget your birthday. Happy birthday!

June b-day II

And Julie's birthday is in June, too! Happy Birthday Julie! (So, just to recap, we have Kiyomi, Kevin, Julie and also Grandpa Wessman of Naney-and-Grandpa fame.)

June b-day

I almost forgot Kiyomi's birthday is in June. Happy Birthday Kiyomi!
