Quick Pic, What's In The Lab

Quick Pic: Love (and Alchemy) is in the Air

February 14, 2020 Beth Doyle
From “The Lure and Romance of Alchemy” by C.J.S. Thompson (George G. Harrap & Co. LTD., London: 1932)

Roses are red
Violets are blue
Knocking off protons
Lead me to you

May all your days together be golden.
Happy Valentine’s Day!
