I have a pattern for a crocheted DNA molecule (stuffed). And while I was looking at it, I noticed that the sample in the photo twists the wrong way. (I had to look it up to confirm, but it’s definitely wrong.)
I consumed incredibled quantities of coffee while working on a robotics project, and then assembled a wallet from the canvas sack that the coffee beans came in.

I continue to pull that environmental educator stint. On “Space Day,” we all made tinfoil hats.
I made a Mars Rover out of pipe cleaners! (It’s Spirit, obviously, because the wheels are all wonky) http://www.flickr.com/photos/40228880@N00/5447393482/in/pool-spaceup-sandiego
