crystals rock





So, MaryJo sent crystal-loving Jack a crystal growing kit for Christmas. Oh my gosh- this thing is amazing, we have grown all sorts of crystals, smooshy ones, hard ones, all different colors, some are instant, some take days. The crystals in these pics ended up filling the glasses. Thanks Mj!! The funniest part of the kit are the goggles that it comes with (on Jack in pic). Although most of the chemicals have all sorts of warnings about contact with eyes- the goggles have a label that reads "this is a toy and not a safety device".... hmmmm, note to self, have poison control on speed dial...
