I know what I want for my birthday now.
After the success of last year’s “bake your thesis” morning tea, this year’s theme was “bake a language” - once again raising funds for the Cancer Council.
It was a reminder of just how creative so many of my colleagues are (and also that they’re pretty good cooks!). My contribution was the apple P.I.E. - which like many of the other offerings was a baking pun. Proto-Indo-European is the best reconstruction of the ancestor language of many modern European languages all the way over to languages like Nepali and Hindi.
The worst kind of griffin would be a fox/seagull.
Screams all day and all night and is definitely in your garbage.

Okay so everyone knows the ghostly wail. But what if Danny got so much control of it, that he could tone it down enough where it wouldn’t hurt anything, and he could sense the sound waves that come back from it? Imagine, Danny using echo location using a toned down version of the ghostly wail! Using it to find small ectoentities that his ghost sense wouldn’t tell him where they are. Him being able to tell Tucker and Sam’s bodies response apart, being able to find them easily if they ever got kidnapped Just. Danny using ecolocation
This whole thing is gold but I lost it at the Southeast food slide.
I made this powerpoint for this week’s lesson - Regional/Iconic American Foods. I went back through and replaced all the text with my student’s reactions.
