Then there's a freak accident, involving her dog and her mom's top secret science experiment.

I started working from home long before Covid. My wife was going back to school to get her PhD, and that required that we move. My boss at the time, and subsequent bosses, were gracious, but what I failed to account for was my own sense of alienation. I’d thrived in many different kinds of companies, from big organizations to much more tightly-knit groups.

Have you ever heated a marshmallow in the microwave? It’s super fun to watch the marshmallow expand and blow up more than double the size. This marshmallow science experiment is a great sensory activity for kids since they need to use different senses to examine what happens after a marshmallow has been heated for a certain time. And because of its sugary goodness, the microwave marshmallow experiment has become the favorite science experiment in my kids’ books!
