Robot Hall of Fame at Carnegie Science Center

A couple of weeks ago Jack was here on Spring Break snd I took a photo of him with favorite robots C-3PO and R2D2.

When the family visited last week, Laura, Charlie and I went to the Carnegie Science Center. Charlie was eager to get to Roboworld to see R2-D2 and C-3PO

What Charlie saw when he went to look for R2D2 and C-3PO oh no!

Carnegie Science Center has moved the robots to the Rangos Theatre lobby here’s an article about the change.

Laura read a sign telling us where to find our favorite robots.

I knit Charlie a robot a couple years ago. Clinky. He likes robots.

A Favorite Appliance

Do you have a favorite appliance? My friend just repaired the pin that holds the head onto the body. It had worked its way out so the head wobbled when being used. I was so pleased it could be fixed as this Kitchen Aid mixer was a gift from my dad in 1986. It’s been a reliable workhorse in several kitchens where we’ve lived. A lot of birthday cakes and batches of cookies have been produced with it. And when I realized how happy I was it was fixed, I decided it’s my favorite appliance (with my toaster I received for my 50th birthday a close second).

Steady workhouse since 1986
