I don?t do math. Seriously. My brain refuses to absorb any information it deems unnecessary, and math definitely falls into that category. So when my Gastronomy teacher came into class with agricultural statistics of different countries the other day and expected me to use my ?math skills? to draw my own conclusions on a certain country?s food supply and what that meant about the country itself, I died a little inside. I am sure this is useful information. I am sure it will come in handy at some point in the future. But at no time in my life did I ever think, gee, I love food, I love writing, so I better brush up on my math skills! That?s why I married someone who does like math. So he can do it for me. And then the teacher was confused and frustrated when no one in the class could handle the assignment. Hey, I?m not the one that asked a bunch of WRITERS to do MATH. She walked right into that one. Now back to the freaking food. ~LTG
