The room was silent as kids waited for me to burn my fingers or set fire to the house.  Or both.  Birthday parties bring out the child arsonist in me.  A long time ago, I created all kinds of colorful fires with my chemistry kit (while my family slept).  I enjoyed tossing every chemical I had into my little bunsen burner.  What colorful flames!  No wonder I love this blogging challenge.

Oh, magenta.  Right.  The balloon.
