What is it?

We have a cast iron pot on the wood stove to add humidity to the air when we burn. Last night it gave a loud pop and actually jumped on the stove. I opened it up to find this.



We couldn't figure it out until Malachi gave a little sound and turned red. It seems he wanted to hide something from his sister yesterday and put it in the pot. He forgot about it and later filled the pot with water and set it on the stove. Have you guessed what it was? It's a golf ball.

Wow! I would have never guessed it's a golf ball. Interesting and yet, a little scary too. Wonder what else you might find that's been hidden and forgotten?

That's quite a surprise! I love that you thought to get a photo to show us all!

Was he mad or embarrassed?
