This week a very historic house in Southport was set to me demolished when a neighbor swooped in to save the day.
John Koren who lives a few houses down the road heard that the home was going to be destroyed. Since he had been in the market to build a guest house anyway he decided to save himself the trouble of all the contruction and just move THIS HOUSE to HIS property.
Sounds crazy, but after building a giant steel track and moving it little by little for a few days they got it done. Impressive!
Maybe you are still snacking on a few leftover cupcakes from Valentine’s Day and this thought crossed your mind. What is the difference between frosting and icing? Not a whole lot actually, but there are subtle differences.
Frosting is generally thicker and fluffier than icing. Icing rends to be shiny and thin making it harder to spread across a big cake like frosting. Icing it better spooned or drizzled on baked goods. Icing also has a sugar base whereas frosting is usually buttercream and sweeter. Frosting is better for coloring too.

A: ASAP

I love creative student projects like this. Makes me want to go back to middle school.
A middle school class in New Hampshire launched a small 6-foot boat into the ocean back in 2020. Now, about 460 days later they have learned that the boat made it all the way to Norway! It sailed 8,300 miles and was covered in barnacles when it was found on shore. They had loaded the boat with photos, fall leaves, acorns, state quarters, and even attached a GPS tracker to it.
Winter Olympics still going on over in Beijing and I was wondering last night when Canada beat us in Ice Hockey… are those gold medals even pure gold? The answer is NO! Kind of…
According to the International Olympic Committee (IOC), all gold and silver medals are required to be at least 92.5 percent SILVER in them. The gold in gold medals is in the plating on the outside surface of the medal and must consist of at least 6 grams of pure gold, but the entire thing isn’t all gold.
So sure, still cool to win gold. But that’s like getting a hollow chocolate bunny at Easter.
