In early May, Conner and Amanda spent a day at Disney World's Hollywood Studios and another at Universal Studios Orlando.

Conner and Amanda are in the car this week for a Miracle Berry Taste Test. We purchased mberry and a bunch of items from the grocery store including lemons, limes, vinegar chips, grapes, oranges, kiwi, and pickles. From the mberry website, we learned "Basically, a protein in miracle berries (called miraculin) binds to the sweet receptors on your tongue. When it experiences acids (the things that make foods sour), they change shape of the receptors causing them to send sweet signals to your brain instead of sour. It’s a miracle!"  mberry website: https://mberry.us/
