Cake is Good!

Last night I made a cake. I'm telling you this because baking is kitchen science and you use measurement which is math. I like to cook even though I don't eat most of the things I make. My favorite part is cracking eggs. I ate some today after I finished all my work and while I played Stratego. Stratego is a game my pen pals George and Sohpia like to play. We met this winter on vacation and they live in New York. Stratego is a fun game and I learn how to strategize and solve problems so that I can beat my opponent.
When I visited the garden this morning the peppers are growing bigger and the bean vines are starting to crawl higher. I also found the first tomatoes.

Microscope Discovery (looking at flower pedals and zucchini leaves)
The left slide is part of the zucchini plant's stem.
The top right is a piece of zucchini plant leaf.
The bottom right are two petals.
Cells in the zucchini plant leaf.
This is a hair from my cat Mr. Woofer. He was nearby while I was working.
He didn't mind.
Can you see the thorns from the top side of the zucchini plant leaf?
More zucchini plant leaf cells.
I am taking the stem apart so I can look at it under my microscope.  
This is a slide of the stem of a zucchini plant.
Even the stem has tiny thorns on it.
