After that, I went to Green Frog, where I bought some healthy food, mostly fruit. I also bought a Green Frog canvas shopping bag so I can avoid bringing home any more plastic bags than I have to. And I picked up some things to make a pasta salad for the placement essay reading on Friday. One thing I like to put in pasta salad is cherry tomatoes. I bought the regular ones, but at Green Frog they had a small package (a third the size of a cherry tomato basket) for $4.99. It was an assortment of all kinds of cherry tomatoes and little yellow pear tomatoes. Ouch. I passed on it. I'm going to grow some nice tomatoes this year, I hope. I keep trying but haven't been to successful in this yard. I think something is wrong with my dirt. I KNOW something is wrong with the dirt in the side yard off my bedroom deck. Nothing will grow; everything that tries to just withers. Even weeds. Except Bermuda grass. Bermuda grass is the cockroach of the flowerbed world. I have a daffodil that opened this morning--so early! Before the crocuses even.

After work today I went to Country Club Liquors and bought a roll of stamps from their little post office booth. FINALLY all the Christmas letters are going to be out of my life. And I can also return the Franchise Tax Board's invitation for amnesty on my 1996 taxes. Won't that be good to have out of my hair?

Fruit! Pasta Salad! Sounds so yummy and healthy. We are trying to eat healthier (at least I am). I still eat lots of snacks, but I am trying to eat more fruits and veggies.

Snacks can be healthy. What kinds of snacks do you like to eat (besides goldfish crackers)?

I love daffodils. They remind me of England. Daffodils grow like ground cover over there. *So does happiness* sniff sniff
