Have you ever gone a day without learning something new? I don’t think I have. My daily dose of “I didn’t know that!” might not be earth shattering, but it keeps my brain entertained. Take today for instance. I learned:
-that tahini is an antidepressant. Apparently there’s some element in tahini that is also found in Prozak and similar medications.
-that asperagus will grow in the Yukon IF it’s planted in a well-protected spot. Who knew?
-that by law, everyone in Vermont must take at least one bath a week.
-that Coca Cola was originally green.
-and that the first product to have a bar code was Wrigley’s gum.
What did you learn today?
Did you find out if sesame seeds do the same thing as tahini?

I tried to think of something new I learned yesterday and came up blank. I did, however, have lots of learning reinforced:
– helping friends feels good
– spending time in the bush with my son feels even better
– overloading my pickup with firewood makes it handle funny
– Superstore grocery shelves are pretty empty on Friday night

Yesterday I learned what to do when your daughter with epilepsy accidentally misses her noontime medicines. Fortunately, it doesn’t appear to have brought on the end of the world. 😉
