Tab's new desktop

So this weekend we set Tab up with a new desktop. Previously she was running an ancient Mac laptop that pretty much could only do word processing. The new machine had an intact tower and was already installed with basic software. Roger just set her to work assembling the keyboard, mouse, speakers, monitor, tower and internet cable.

It was interesting to watch her puzzle it out. She has always been one to want to figure stuff out for herself, so we stepped back and let her figure out how the pieces went together. She knew we would help if she asked, but she didn't want to. So congratulations to her for figuring it out. (Next step we take one apart and let her see what each of the pieces do, but that can wait a bit.)

Her priorities once she set it up made me laugh.

1. Find Solitaire (yes she is running Windows for now)
2. Figure out how to change background
3. Open iTunes

Batch of Chili

Has anyone here actually been able to make a small batch of chili? I am about ready to declare it impossible.
