Fruit Cocktail

2 of us picked 24 pounds of peaches in 5 minutes yesterday.

5 of us picked 10 pounds of blueberries in an hour today.

None of us picked green beans this weekend, even though we should have.

Guess which produce people are gobbling up like candy?

• The weight of my 6 year old before we went strawberry picking yesterday.
• The number of pounds of strawberries that made it onto the scales after we'd picked for two hours.
• The amount of strawberries we might have consumed that didn't quite make it into our buckets.
• How much sugar it will take to process all these berries into jam.
• How much weight I'll gain if I eat all that jam.
