  • A benefit of growing older - "maturing" has a nice ring to it - is
    discovering a willingness to (occasionally) eat stuff I used to refuse
    to touch.

    Rye bread, for instance.  I'm quite partial to it now.

    Yellow squash and zucchini for another.  (Still not touching stewed squash, though....it was revolting when I was a kid and it's revolting now.  Ugh.)

    I'm waiting anxiously to see if a softening of my revulsion towards the Denizens of the Deep sets in.

    That'd be cool.
