Lolich's Family Farm

On the way home from school I stopped at Lolich's to pick up some hand picked cherries to treat myself for my successful week at school. They are DELICIOUS too.

The total for the cherries came to $2.34 so I gave the girl a $5 bill and 4 pennies. So she gives me back the change for the $5 AND the 4 pennies. Her response....."I didn't know what to do with the 4 pennies." Really...?? Are you serious? Our math system is failing on us. We rely way too much on technology. We need to start using our own heads a little bit more. That's a challenge people!

Haha, was it that same lady peeking out from behind the post? I think she is the best part of this photo!

Love the photo!

Our math system has been failing us for years now! I read this post and am still so confused about what that girl was thinking but would need my calculator and/or a good five minutes to give you your proper change back...
