Got my organic fruit/veggie box today. In it was green beans, white mushrooms, kale, baby bok choy, yellow onions, cilantro, cucumber, red pears, oranges, tangeloes, blue berries, bananas and a bag of Fugi apples, my favorite. Seems like I may have forgotten something. Oh, grape tomotoes. Yum.

We drove through Kansas a couple of years ago - it was flat, but I’m from Saskatchewan - I’ve seen flatter.

My burps changed a little while ago so that I hiccup in first before I burp out.

ETA: I just did that!

I ate too much spaghetti. But it was gluten-free so I’m not bloated. So it’s a full stomach ache but not a bloated stomach ache. So that’s nice.
