1. From Andrew



We found this among the folder of school work that Andrew's teacher periodically sends home.




It develops that Mr. Oats was a meal worm Andrew raised from an egg. He fed its larva flakes of dried oatmeal, hence the name. He then observed it pupate and metamorphize into a small beetle. The adult form evidently is not long-lived.

2. When we took the Christmas decorations out of storage, we found the following object adhering to the bottom of one. No detailed explanation for how it got there:

I should have said that. They were in the attic.

That's what baffles me--how did it get into the attic?

I know I don't have to worry about mice, of course, but still... I need a mongoose.
