Cooking

In large states public education will always be mediocre, for the same reason that in large kitchens the cooking is usually bad.

So, a while ago I came home and went to throw something in the trash.  In the trash I saw a can of chicken noodle soup with all the noodles in it.  At first I thought Elizabeth had done something — an experiment most likely.  But she said it was Maddie.

I asked Maddie why she threw out a can of chicken noodle soup.  She said, "I saw a recipe on food network that I wanted to try, but it called for chicken broth and we didn't have any, so I drained the juice off the soup and used it.  It worked pretty well."

Clearly, I can't be angry at ingenuity.
