I am gladdened to see how fruitful you all are.

Are you all multiplying as well?

Has anybody indulged in any arithmetic function this morning?

I found a tiny wriggling worm at the bottom of the container.

Plus protein. A gift with purchase. I think worms are low in polyunsaturated fats.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

There were tomatoes in my sandwich. And blueberries in my jam at breakfast....

I had a banana and a peach!

I've done an accounts receivable spreadsheet and bar graph on booked jobs through year-end, also currently working on personal budget numbers so I can tell the current employers what I actually need to have this be a job I can stay in. Lots of multiplying and dividing and adding.

I am so bummed with myself. I have overspent my budget by $300 this month, basically just because I could not resist doing home improvements. Granted I am doing these things myself versus hiring them out and thus saving money in one way, but I really did not need to by the paint for my garage this month.

I have a fruit tip for everybody: Peaches are in season!

Super delicious right now.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Only arithmetic, or do trigonometric and transcendental count, too?

No fruit yet today, although I will probably get some for lunch, depending on if they only have melon left on the fruit part of the salad bar (yuck, melon!). I did have lots of fruit (for me) yesterday, though--a banana in the afternoon, some grapes with my hardboiled eggs at lunch, and raisins in the trail mix I snacked on later in the afternoon.

Not here. I grew up thinking I hated peaches. Then I went to a summer program in San Luis Obispo and tried some peaches from the farmers market, and loved them. I have not yet found any east coast peaches that even approach that level of goodness. The farmers markets here do have peaches, but they're just OK. And the supermarket ones still taste horrible to me.
