Why I never would have made it as a forensic scientist...

Disclaimer: This is gross.

For a brief period of time I had this dream of becoming a forensic scientist. I'm sure it had something to do with one of the many shows glamorizing the career. Well today I received confirmation it's a good thing it was just a dream. While I was drying out some acorns (because a Google search told me to) for a craft I plan to do with the kids, I spotted a maggot crawling around my baking tray and I just about tossed my cookies. I can handle diapers and boogers and vomit and all of that. Maggots? Not so much. All I gotta say is thank goodness for Google and its warnings to dry the nuts to get rid of the insects or I wouldn't have even bothered to bake them at all....and the kids would be making necklaces out of maggots instead of acorns.
