    It's great to see the posts of my fellow teammates.  I've shared many of those same experiences, such as Mary's avoiding refined sugar, Ashley's enjoying quick walks, and learning things from the lunch-presentation on organic ag like Lesa.  And eating vegetarian seems to require more effort in the kitchen - veggies require so much peeling and chopping (but taste really good).  Good work team, and thanks for sharing.
