Thomasina in Tom Stoppard's mind bending time warping play, ARCADIA, observes that when you stir raspberry jam into vanilla pudding it will first swirl in streaks but ultimately will turn the entire pudding pink. If you stir the pudding in the opposite direction, the jam will not separate back out again. --LIFE MOVES ONLY FORWARD--NEVER BACK!--

Chicago With the Grandson
Taking the train into Chicago is not quite as exciting as riding the Chepe up to the Copper Canyon, but when you are eleven and have only had one other train ride in your life, it is still quite an event. It was a rainy morning but our destination was the Field Museum so there was no need to worry about the puddles. We spent several hours in the exhibits dealing with native Americans from South America to Alaska. We saw an Inuit man carving a new totem pole to replace one that the Field will send back to Alaska, visited the Egyptian tomb exhibits, and of course saw the big dinosaur skeleton called Sue. Grandma, Grandpa, and TJ had a great time.
