The next vacation is Labor Day. The one after that is Fall Break. Then Thanksgiving. Then Christmas. Yeah, I AM counting.
Serious, Lynn, are fruit calories good?
Steve,
Yes. And no.
They are simple carbohydrates, as opposed to complex (like veggies), so you body uses them faster. They are better than other sugars, because they come with fiber. But we definitely shouldn't eat too much.
I think a "serving" is half an apple, etc. But some melons (honeydew?) you can eat half a melon.
They are "good" in the sense that they are delicious. And I love them!!
I'm going to go eat some watermelon...
Why is it so hard to convince students and administrators that critical thinking is a real skill? Hmmm....
