Things I Learned Today

1. It takes about 15 minutes to squeeze a pound and a half of key limes.

2. About 35 key limes make up a pound and a half.

3. This amount of limes will make about 1 1/4 cups of juice.

4. When you drop the Pyrex measuring cup containing the 1 1/4 cups of juice it on the floor and bend to clean it, the juice will sting your knees.

5. Shortly thereafter, any juice that splashed up onto the lower part of the cabinets will begin to strip the varnish, which will drip back onto the floor in sad browny puddles.

The Pyrex measuring cup remains intact.
