What's Your Favorite Chaffle?

Have you ever made chaffles? Chaffles are a new form of waffles that are made of something ketogenic, usually mozzarella or another type of cheese, combined with eggs and either savory or sweet keto-friendly flavors like herbs, cocoa, peanut butter, etc. with sweeteners. Some even buy pre-flavored sweeteners to make them taste like caramel, coconut, s'mores, peach, etc.

Braintopia

Braintopia is one of those games that gives you a bunch of fun brain challenges that have to be done somewhat quickly, and you get to test out everything from your memory to your coordination and speed. 

You go through a deck of challenges, rapidly solving puzzles to collect tokens while you use your powers of observation, multitasking and other abilities. There are even some sensory games, which makes this one even more unique. It's for 2-6 players, ages 8 and up.

Keto Food Truck in Seattle

Eating ketogenic or a low-sugar diet shouldn't be as hard as it seems, and many people who eat this way already know that you can make most things low-sugar and low-carb with the right ingredients. Many chains like Blaze pizza are catching on, serving keto options for their patrons, but for the most part much of the country still needs to embrace at least cutting the sugar down.

Animal-Shaped Goodies

My kiddo and I like to make treats in the shapes of things. We made a lion-shaped cake once that was pretty awesome, but we usually just like to "paint" our cupcakes as characters or animals with icing tubes. So when I shared these little corgi bread buns with them, I knew they'd be a hit! All of the kids seem to be super into corgis right now anyway, which means these buns would be great for a kid party, right?

Boeing HorizonX Has Been Investing In Miniature Ion Propulsion Engines

    Boeing has been in the news a lot lately. Unfortunately, a lot of the media coverage has been about problems at the company with respect to space projects. Boeing unexpectedly pulled out of a DARPA spaceplane project without any explanation. Very recently, the failure of the test for a manned launch vehicle was attributed to software.

NASA Creates New Chain Mail By 4-D Printing

     The cost of launching things into orbit is about ten thousand dollars per pound. It takes complex heavy equipment and fuel to get anything to orbit. This means that making payloads as light as possible is important. NASA has used a variety of techniques to reduce the weight that has to be thrown into orbit in order to be useful.

Jet Set Radio Family Guy Crossover

There's a bunch of Family Guy and Jet Set Radio fanart going around right now, creating a crossover that nobody ever knew they needed. Some fans are really going gaga over the idea of an actual game crossover, which is too fun to be true.

At first glance, the two really don't seem to have much to do with one another, but once you check out the various pieces of art and imagine Meg on a grafitti run, it all suddenly becomes a really fun idea!

One-third of Southern Corroboree Frogs Saved

The world watched on in terror as the fires that ravaged Australia took with them so many animal lives, including the country's frogs. A species of Southern Corroboree Frog unfortunately lost two-thirds of its population at Kosciuszko National Park in New South Wales, but an emergency team of scientists was able to come in and care for the remaining third of the frogs.
