When I grow up, I want to be the Berkeley Bowl - the produce section. I want to give people the beauty and deliciousness of fruit and vegetables and fungi. When I see the rich reds of the pluots and the island of mangoes, I feel like I'm in heaven. So I want to be this heaven, of ten - ten! - different kinds of pluots, a whole row of varied heirloom tomatoes, four kinds of limes, endless apples, banana blossoms, hawaiian plantains, jujubees, chickpeas in the pod, black velvet apricots, mango nectarines, purple carrots, and kumquats!... I will be so bountiful and bring joy to so many. I haven't had a real dream for the future in a long while, but today I realized that when I grow up, I want to be the Berkeley Bowl.
