best life pedal planet
Life's too short. You may be on this planet for 80 years at best or who knows, but you can't just pedal around and do the same thing forever.

quarter running time
A quarter century of running a restaurant - that's a long time to do one thing.

I've always liked root vegetables because most of them have a natural sweetness. They have a high fructose content, especially when you cook them and caramelize them in a saute pan. Or you can take a turnip and cook it slowly in the oven until it's browned, and it takes on a kind of sweetness. These vegetables are pretty easy to like.
loud
I would always be embarrassed to read out loud in class because I would transpose words and letters and things.
