Need help!

I know I haven't written anything in a while, but I have a really good reason! I've been working on a little project that's ready to be unveiled, and I need as much help with it as I can get!

The how-to website instructables.com is having a contest called the Hungry Scientist.

Being both a scientist and often experiencing hunger, I decided to enter. The top prizes are quite desirable - I could win a KitchenAid stand mixer!

I have three entries:

How to Isolate Splenda, for all of you that want a little more bang for your sweetening packet,
How-To: Gelatin/Agar Filtration, a method to produce crystal-clear liquid from even the cloudiest of materials,
and Rum Bubble Surprise, a dessert I just invented.

So if you want to help this poor grad student furnish his dream kitchen, please vote for my entries! Up near the top you'll see the "vote" button. You can vote only once per entry (per IP address), but you can vote for as many different entries as you want.


Thanks in advance!

Done.

P.S. Most impressive use of acetone. Thanks for telling us you didn't consume that bit!

I voted for RUM! However, the jello was rather intriguing. Hope you win! You deserve it.
