Someone made a flippant comment the other day that 2016, as a number and a year, was just weird. This stuck with me a little bit, and, after some consideration, I have to agree. It’s hard to find a certain finesse or appeal to the numbers themselves as a whole, and it got me thinking…

This is a post I’ve been meaning to make for the past week or so, but therein lies the unfortunate result of working in a grocery store before one of the biggest food holidays of the year.
