hip deep in pie

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

I have several in my fridge, going bad, while I don't make pie of them.

Sue, cobbler might be quicker. Don't waste yummy peaches.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Breakfast included a can of tropical salad (mostly pineapple and mango). And there were a couple slices of plantain at lunch.

It's pouring rain outside (Irene has arrived) and I may resort to my emergency stash of no-sugar-added applesauce.

Nah, it's still the midwest passing along their storms. We won't be seeing Irene until the weekend....

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

Yeah, DC is probably getting the storm that hit PA a few hours ago.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

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

No trig!

Transcendental count? Oh, Hil when did you become a new age mathemagician?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I had to walk between meetings in the rain to get to a meeting, and then the meeting was cancelled! But afterwards, I stopped at the farmer's market and got some peaches.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I had applesauce and blueberries in my oatmeal, and I have a banana awaiting my belly for my afternoon snack. And we have peaches at home, if I can get one before Tim ganks them out from under me. He is a peach monster. I was unaware of this fruit-stealing side of him. Evil.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Do peanut M&Ms count as fruit?
