Oh my gosh Erin – I kept thinking of that the whole time I was working on the post!!!!! That was an awesome episode and shows just how classic Ruth’s invention is.

Yeah we’re always saying “well it’s for school!” 😉 Chocolate is always good when it’s for science LOL!! Thank you so much for stopping by.

I can’t see the name Nestle Tollhouse without thinking of the Friends episode where Phoebe is trying to find her grandmother’s recipe.

That’s a great question Mary. As we continue our inventor studies, I’ll have to add that one in. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you Carol. We completely agree. I wish I knew what made inventors okay with making mistakes. So many of us get defeated by our mistakes and never end up reaching our potential.
