OT topic today:

Last couple of weeks we've had amazing weather. So we've gone hiking. Today down around Berea, KY. We had a wicked good time, but the hike was a little more rigorous than last week.

I'm not looking forward to tomorrow's workout on the elliptical.

As this is the open thread, here's an item overheard at the grocery store this afternoon: "No, honey, those are GIRL flavors, you won't like them". Can someone clue me in as to what qualifies as girl or boy flavors? I'm stumped and scared I've been eating the wrong kind my whole life.
