  1. OH oobleck! I love that. I made it once and now you make me want to make it again. I too need cornstarch.

    And we have been going through so much playdough lately, but 1.64 for only a pack of 4, has made me able to not make it lately. But now you got me wanting to. hehe

  2. Is that stuff kind of like Gak? About your question from the post below- a good friend of mine had her last son at 38. I think many women are having babies at that age now. It is common. Me- never! I could not imagine having a little one right now!

  6. I made the Play-Dough yesterday with my son. He loved "helping" me stir the dough. We made his favorite color blue. He was so happy. I was happy too.
    Thanks for the recipe.
