Migmatites

So I realized that I don't know what migmatites are but I use the name in my url. So I did a little research:


According to Wikipedia, migmatites are rocks "at the frontier between igneous and metamorphic rocks." Whatever that means. It says they form under extreme temperature when pre-existing rocks melt and then crystallize. Then it says that migmatites occur in extremely deformed rocks. But they sure look cool. So by using the name migmatite for my family blog, I am essentially saying that we are pretty messed up but turn out okay! Sounds good.
