Today I’m focusing more on abundance than any kind of accomplishment! My win for today is acknowledging the benefit I’ve received from recent sales at the grocery store because, really, who doesn’t benefit from a sale on things they want and perhaps want to try? But it’s not just sales, but points, as well! Typically I am able to earn points from buying things that I would normally buy anyway without needing to purchase an excessive amount. I received points for buying bananas which I buy all the time. Every 2-3 weeks I am able to earn points from buying them if spend at least $1 on them. I’ll also be earning points this week from buying the bread I usually like to get. With harvest season, I have been able to buy squash, sweet potato, and apples on sale, as well! Along with that, the Silk milk and frozen veggies I like have also been on sale this week! Wow! Talk about abundance! And it’s all on things I actually want! What is your win? Or where have you noticed abundance in your life this week? #Daily Win #Gratitude #Abundance #SoulfulWealthSystem #PetwellCreativeEnterprises

The Great Potato Paradox: A Spud-tacular Conundrum! 🥔 Have you ever heard of the Potato Paradox? It’s not about a potato that suddenly decides to become a tomato, nor is it about a spud with an identity crisis. It’s a brain-boggling puzzle that has stumped many and left others mashed in confusion. Here’s the deal: You have a pile of potatoes that are 99% water and 1% solid potato goodness. Now, let’s say some of the water evaporates, and the potatoes are now 98% water. You’d think, “Big whoop, it’s just 1% less water, right?” Wrong! That tiny change causes the pile to weigh half as much as it did before! Yes, you read that right – half! But How? It’s like this: If you start with 100 kg of these water-logged taters, you’ve got 1 kg of solid potato and 99 kg of water. When the water content drops to 98%, that solid 1 kg now makes up 2% of the total weight. So, to keep the math in check, the total weight must drop to 50 kg. What Does It Mean? This paradox is a sneaky lesson in percentages and ratios. It’s like nature’s way of saying, “Think you understand math? Hold my beer… or rather, hold my potato.” It shows us that our intuition can be as unreliable as a weather forecast in spring. The Takeaway So, next time you’re cooking up a storm in the kitchen and you find your potatoes have lost some water, don’t panic. Remember the Potato Paradox and impress your dinner guests with your newfound mathematical magic trick. Just don’t expect them to help with the dishes after you’ve blown their minds with your spud-tacular wisdom! There you have it, folks! The Potato Paradox – it’s not just food for thought; it’s a full-course meal for your brain. Bon appétit! #PotatoParadox #SundayWisdom #FoodForThought

Thanksgiving can leave your households divided into white meat lovers and dark meat turkey lovers. According to an AP/NORC poll of 1,101 Americans, 43% prefer white meat compared to 28% who prefer dark meat...But we want to hear from you! Like this post for dark meat and love for white meat.

Major #beer styles search popularity since 2010. Why am I sharing this? It's not consumption data or sales data, it's Google search data which I find often correlates to what we see being consumed in the US market. Prediction- #Lager (light blue) overtakes #Stout (orange) in early 2025. #Seltzer (dark blue) vs. #IPA (green) seems much foggier who wins the neck-and-neck battle for search popularity throughout the year. Thoughts and predictions?
