"Not all that impressive", you are thinking. Well, when it was time to bring it out I put a sugar cube on top of each eyeball, soaked them with lemon extract and lit them. Flames shot out of the eyes. And, yes, it does have to be lemon extract. I tried it with vanilla and almond extract, hoping that I wouldn't have to buy the lemon. Apparently it isn't the alcohol in the extract; it must have something to do with the lemon.
Sorry, I know the picture is a little blurry, but this one shows the flames pretty well. He got a kick out of it.

Wow! The things I would never think of.....
That's really awesome Mom. I love it. I can't wait to come visit. Not that we will be having sugar cube fires but still....I can't wait.
Oh, man... I just laughed SO HARD.
Mike said, "Wow. Your mom's getting kind of fiesty, isn't she?"
I was laughing so hard Mike had to come over to see what I was looking at. I bet he loved it, I would have! :)
