This past week I spent a few several days visiting Poodle in Washington D.C. The best part was seeing her. Here are some of our adventures:
Baking: We made chiffon cupcakes (yummy and light)
and caramel apples.
Teaching physics: (actually Poodle taught, I watched.) They had a robot battle, which was quite exciting. (robots from her robotics class) and another class rode bikes down a hill and calculated their coefficient of friction for the ride.
Solving mysteries: The case of the vanishing chocolate-covered marshmallow clown face-on-a-stick.
Apple picking: (we ended up settling for a trip to the country store and me choosing a pumpkin from this pumpkin patch.)
Community service: We attended a "trunk or treat" at the local ward and gave out Halloween candy. Poodle and Rochelle dressed up as flowers.
Bargain hunting: With Poodle closeby, I managed to find two pair of jeans (regular price $99.00) for $7.97, and a cute scarf (regular price $38.00) for $5.00. It's amazing!
and finally Dining out: We ate at several great ethnic restaurants.
A perfect trip to D.C. Thanks, Poodle!
