It was a bloody Valentine...

#2 son had this Valentine's Day plan in the works for a LONG time. We heard about it a week before. He had been shopping for fake blood on Amazon. I didn't ask why... he ended up waiting until the last minute, then asked me to run him to Walmart. I can tell you, the manager at Walmart will laugh at you if you go in looking for fake blood the night before Valentine's Day. "It's not Halloween!" he said with a cackle. Our friend Connie was there to save his plans. She knew that party city stocks fake blood all year long...
He put a little blood in Ziploc bags, and gave those out at school. He also got a prize in the school Valentine's dance. He would've received a prize for the costume contest as well. They informed him that he was disqualified due to already winning in the dance contest. Too much winning is not allowed?



Kat asked that I take her for a walk in a park for Valentine's day. We went to Rollingwood Park as it's near and easy. The weather was really nice. Kat enjoyed the swing set, going higher, and higher..
Craft Beer Rooftop Deck blind IPA tasting:

Four different IPA in glasses numbered 1-4. We each made notes on preference, and tried to identify what was in each glass.
Guess who successfully identified each one?
That's right... KAT scored 100%.
Austin Chinese American Network festival. Kat got to spend time with her people.
I enjoyed the matcha (green tea) layered crepe cake.
Things are heating up in my metal art class. I made two sections of square tube (each tube was made from four flats). Then I joined those together. I was happy with the welds. The thing below was made from eight individual coupons (small flat pieces we use for practice welds).
Goji went home. #2 son was a bit sad to say goodbye to his friend.
