It's almost 5 o'clock on a Sunday, daughter tells us she needs to do a science experiment for homework, due tomorrow, and needs alcohol.
We got alcohol, but not that kind of alcohol... 
Here's the result of Sunday's school science project on chlorophyll chromatography. Quite satisfying really.
In the end, the whisky wasn't enough

Not bad for a Sunday night rush job.

Really cool.
