Volcano

July 8, 2012 by Amy Hudson

Volcanoes and lava have been of particular interest lately in our home.  My daughter can’t stop investigating how volcanoes work by watching Youtube videos featuring lava flows, volcanic explosions, and all thing volcano.
This volcano was made in honor of my daughter’s recent fascination with lava.   The volcano is a grilled cheese sandwich, the lava is ketchup (used for dipping) and the ground below is some rice leftover from last night’s dinner.
Simply cut your grilled cheese sandwich into a triangle, squeeze your ketchup to look like lava, and add something for the ground beneath the volcano.
Teach your children how volcanoes work by showing them this video:
 Bill Nye the Science Guy Volcanoes

Variations:

Use celery for the ground beneath the volcano for a healthier option.

Hope you enjoy!

    Wonderful blog! Do you have any tips and hints for aspiring writers?
    I’m planning to start my own website soon but I’m a little lost on everything.
    Would you recommend starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for
    a paid option? There are so many choices out there that I’m completely overwhelmed ..
    Any tips? Kudos!

      ScotsmanSome of these ideas are worth looking at, but as alyaws, they are skewed to favor certain tax brackets so that the masses can stomach it. I am afraid that they won’t touch the mortgage interest deduction b/c real estate is in such a precarious position, and the banking industry I am sure will let them know what would happen if they caused house values to fall further by removing another ownership incentive.The only one that has a chance of making it through, and I will be surprised if Obama doesn’t push for it, is raising capital gains taxes. This is the only one that won’t affect the real estate prices. It may affect stock prices though as it becomes more costly to take a profit. Rate this comment: 0 0

      By :By :But here’s the kicker .To get smoeone’s name off the home mortgage, you have to refinance. And with no equity, there’s no refi. So even if one person wants to stay in the house and wait for the market to rebound, they can’t unless the other party is stupid to keep their name on the mortgage. I really feel for anyone in that situation.Really? you can’t get off with a quit claim deed?No, that just gets rid of the ownership.When you sign a note and deed of trust you are obligating yourself to pay. Do you really think you can after the fact just sign something else saying I decided I don’t want to pay back the $350,000 I borrowed! 😉 Rate this comment: 0 0

    I drop a comment each time I like a post on a website or I have
    something to valuable to contribute to the discussion. Usually it’s a result
    of the sincerness communicated in the post I looked at.
    And after this post Volcano. I was moved enough to post a comment
    😛 I actually do have some questions for you if it’s allright.
    Could it be simply me or does it seem like a few of these comments come
    across like coming from brain dead individuals? 😛 And, if you are posting on additional online social sites, I would like to keep up with everything fresh you have to post.
    Would you make a list the complete urls of your communal pages
    like your linkedin profile, Facebook page or twitter feed?

    I think everything posted was actually very logical. But, think on this, suppose you
    added a little information? I mean, I don’t wish to tell you how to run your blog, however suppose you added
    something that grabbed folk’s attention? I mean Volcano is a little boring.

    You might look at Yahoo’s front page and see how they create
    post titles to get people interested. You might add a video or
    a pic or two to grab people interested about everything’ve
    written. In my opinion, it could make your posts a
    little livelier.

    I do not know if it’s just me or if perhaps everyone else encountering problems with your blog.
    It appears as though some of the text within your posts are running off the screen. Can somebody else please provide feedback and let
    me know if this is happening to them as well? This
    might be a issue with my browser because I’ve had this happen before.
