Thanks for your answers to this week’s puzzle that asked you to compress the activities of a weekday morning into a desperate 30 minutes of multitasking! It was a bit long, so instead of repeating it here as I would usually do, click the link if you want a recap.

The gist was this: Thank god it’s the weekend.

Rather than my standard kid care, you can see what I’m up to this weekend by clicking TED’s new youth program here:
