Detroit-area woman speaks out after judge catches her making sandwich during virtual court hearing
In any court hearing, you want to balance the evidence, spread the facts evenly, and hope nobody gets jammed up in cross-examination. What if you apply those methods to making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich while you're in front of the judge? Probably not the best idea. Asia Outerbridge found herself in a bit of a jam when she was called out for making her daughter a sandwich during a virtual court hearing. The Metro Detroit mother appeared in Detroit's 36th District Court at 9 a.m. on a misdemeanor charge before Judge Sean Perkins. The first step in a recipe for disaster was showing up late. Outerbridge says she logged in at 9:22 a.m., but says there was a good explanation. "I got multiple court dates, so I called to get the Zoom number, and they had told me like, 'Oh, you're supposed to be there right now.' What I had said 1 p.m.," Outerbridge told CBS News Detroit. "I hung up with them, and hopped on at 9:22 AM exactly, and waited there from 9:22 to 11:30. That's when the robe thing happened, and then he put me back in holding. So with being on hold for 2 hours, I'm not going to lie, I kind of forgot he was on the phone." Outerbridge says once she finally realized the session started, she frantically ran to the phone while making a sandwich, and didn't even remember that during the two hours of waiting at home, she put on a robe. Outerbridge says she holds herself accountable for her actions, but she wants to use this situation for good. "I definitely was wrong. I could have came dressed better and more prepared, and I don't want to judge to think that I'm laughing at the situation at him because I'm not. I take that very seriously, I do genuinely, with a serious face, apologize to the judge," she said. "I'm a personal stylist, so I know how to present myself, but that day, you know, it's hard for moms out here. I'm not gonna lie. I took that transition of what you wear to court, and I will show different outfits you could wear to court, how you can present yourself, and how you can not be caught lacking in a robe, making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. You don't want to do that." CBS News Detroit contacted Perkins for comment, but has not heard back.

Teacher Covers Herself in Peanut Butter and Jelly to Teach Her Class an Important Lesson in Viral Video
Teacher Kayleigh Sloan, 28, has gone viral after filming herself giving students an important lesson about creative writing She asked the kids to write instructions on how to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, and followed them exactly Sloan ended up covering herself in peanut butter and jelly before telling the students how important it is to add description to their writingA teacher in Idaho is teaching her kids an important, albeit messy, lesson about creative writing. In a recent TikTok clip, Kayleigh Sloan, 28, who is a first and second grade looping teacher, filmed herself teaching her class the importance of accuracy when describing how to make a classic peanut butter and jelly sandwich., Sloan began the clip, which has now been watched 54.5 million times, by telling the kids, 'I'm going to read some of your responses on how to make a PB&J, and then I am going to copy exactly what your writing says." 'So, the first one says, 'You get bread, you get peanut butter and you get jelly,' ' Sloan said, holding all the items in her arms, asking, 'Did I make it?' as the kids insisted, "No!" 'That's what it said to do,' Sloan replied. 'I got my bread, I got my peanut butter and I got my jelly — so it's done.' 'That's not how you make it!' one student yelled out, as Sloan moved on to another student's suggestion. 'Put the bread flat,' Sloan told the class, pressing firmly on the bread. 'Alright, it's pretty flat. I feel like that's good.' 'Spread jelly and jam on the bread,' she read aloud, spreading the jelly on one side and peanut butter on the other, while the bread was still in the plastic. 'Like this?' Sloan questioned, adding, 'Is it ready to eat?' much to the students' disgust. One kid insisted, 'That's not how you make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich!' 'That's what it said to do!' Sloan responded before moving on to another student's list. 'You need to get out the — Ooooh! Get out the bread. First, I get out the bread,' Sloan said, grabbing a piece of bread. 'Get out some jelly. Perfect!' she continued, throwing the item on the table, before following it up with some peanut butter. 'Okay, it's ready,' Sloan told the kids, insisting, 'That's what it said to do.' Things then got even messier, as she told the students, 'Let's try another one: First, you must put on the jelly. Then, you must put on peanut butter," asking, 'Wait — I need to put it on? What?' Sloan proceeded to rub the peanut butter and jelly all over her arms, as the students screamed. 'You're doing it wrong!' one kid said, as Sloan questioned, 'Okay, it's on — am I done?' The class yelled "No!" as the teacher pointed out, 'But you told me to put it on. Like a T-shirt?' She then explained the importance of the lesson she was trying to teach, telling the kids, 'So, we just did a whole lesson on adding detail to our writing. Do we understand why you have to have detail? Did anybody ever mention a plate or a knife?' asking, 'Did we even use these?' while holding them up. 'All I did was exactly what you told me to do," Sloan continued to tell the class. "So, do we see how important it is to include all the correct steps? ... So, if we were to redo this, what could our first step be?' before they yelled out suggestions on how to be more descriptive to make sure the sandwich got made correctly.

Sloan told that the kids "were mind-blown" following the class, adding to the outlet that she'd seen the peanut butter and jelly sandwich experiment on TikTok five years ago. She told the publication she now teaches the "hilarious" lesson every year. "The point of the lesson is to add detail and be descriptive in writing,' Sloan said. 'Words are so important and can easily change the meaning of what we're saying. That's why I was so literal with the instructions.' Sloan didn't immediately respond when contacted by PEOPLE for comment on the viral clip. Read the original article on People
