QUICK HITS
just a reminder that the supreme court sucks, and republicans are trying to scare americans into thinking that undocumented aliens are voting (spoilers, they’re not).

caleb had a great time with his nephew, mom, and the scientist in frederick and DC. there was a candy mishap, but that also created something magical. caleb tried old bay goldfish crackers and played a TON of different card games, like spades and hearts! rafe tried balsamic vinegar & salt chips. what a great food experience! and rafe is obsessed with pokemon go again, FOR NOW. pokemon go has added quite a few fun things since last time she played.

also don’t forget to enjoy CALEB RACING – final fantasy randomizer food race! july 21st.
