I saw a web release today about silver. It was talking about silver bars and how you can buy gold, silver, and other precious metals from them. The web release told how gold and silver bullion is cast into either coins or ingot. Now, none of this is new info to me. My husband has collected coins for years, and everytime we visit his family, he sits around the kitchen table bouncing coins of particular dates off the floor. Something about that tells them whether they are made of silver or not.

My daughter is quite a character. I never quite know what's going on in her mind, even when she tells me.

In the car the other day, she was talking about what my son wanted to be for Halloween. See, I'm a bad mommy and I KNOWINGLY got them the wrong costumes this year. My son wanted to be Dracula, but he's going as Batman because Batman cost $20 and a cape cost $30, with the suit extra. She wanted to be a unicorn, but she can't squeeze into those really furry costumes that people make babies wear, so she had to be a princess. And it was a REALLY nice costume!! What kind of girl fusses about being a princess? Apparently mine does, despite pretending to be a princess 90% of the time.
