    i love picnics

    two days ago i felt totally motivated to have a picnic at a small park near my house. so i asked a few people to go with me but they thought it was weird and refused. I sat there and thought i had to go out and do something i can't just sit at home for my summer vacation! Then i started packing my sandwich...grapes...animal cookies...carrots and broccoli with ranch...sierra mist...water...and some books. Then it struck me that going out on a picnic alone isn't very fun even though i'll have time to think about random stuff and day dream while i'm at it. So i convinced my sister to go with me. it was fantacular.

    those darn freckled cheeks

     i found out that i get embarrassed easily over the stupidest things. like it could be anything and i turn  bright red. man i think my cheeks are the worst part of my face. (those traitors) they certainly are not shy in expressing themselves.

    oh and i found some pretty snazzy things from this book i'm reading :)

    okay okay ready?

    "why don't you ever see cashews sold in the shell?

      BECAUSE:  Most nuts, peanuts, walnuts, hazelnuts, almonds, pecans, Brazil nuts, etc., can be bought in the shell.  You will never see cashews sold this way, and for a good reason.  The oil that surrounds the shell is very irritating to the skin and can cause blisters.  (Cashews are in the same plant family as poison ivy.)  This makes the harvesting of cashews nasty work.  Trying to shell these obnoxious little nuts at home would also be a difficult task.  Even roasting the shells causes a noxious smoke to be given off.  No one would bother.  Hence the packagers does it for you.  Another interesting thing about cashews is that they can help prevent tooth decay.  The oil in the nut is so powerful that it inhibits the growth of plaque-producing bacteria.  Instead of mint-flavored Crest, we could be brushing with cashew-flavored Crest. Yum!"

    nnnyeah that's what "the book of useless information" says.

    interesting eh?
