  1. Great job, girls. You did a... well, great job. However, that was a rate: 2 squirts/letter. Sorry, but you know me: I'm a jerk with a brain. Well, I don't have much else to say, except GREAT JOB... again.

  5. Great job girls, I really liked the cookie part. I also liked that you used a real life example for it. I don't know if the video is suppose to be like that at the end so if it isn't try to fix it.

  7. Great job guys! I love how you used cookies as your props, you explained everything very well, however two squirts per letter is a rate not a ratio, but thats okay, and I think you got cut off at the end, well that's what it looks like to me. I loved the colours you used for your post Suzie! Overall, great job!
