"Keeley, you need to take the casserole out," Aaron reminded her, shaking her out of her research-related thoughts.
She scrambled for the oven mitts and pulled it out right before the cheese would have started to burn. Getting lost in Genetics Land wasn't a good idea when she was supposed to be focusing on something else.
"Sorry," Keeley said sheepishly. "I was thinking about a possible new research topic."
Aaron smiled. He knew how much she had been struggling to come up with something new. "Oh? Do tell."
"After dinner. Will you go get Violet for me?"
He nodded and marched upstairs to let her know the food was ready. Keeley sang one of her favorite songs as she set the table and served up slices of casserole for her family. She was in an excellent mood now that she might have a straw to grasp at in her research.
