FAQ
Why ice cream?

We have enjoyed many ice cream cones and have suffered the devastating loss of ice cream that drops to the ground. Maria is an actual writer by trade, motivated by reaching daily word counts. Tricia spends all day thinking about indicators and indices in the context of global health, which includes food-related metrics. Maria and Tricia have a knack for identifying new strange ways to leverage their skillsets.

You're lying. Most food and drink logs on the market track a lot of unquantifiable information, which makes it difficult to analyze results. Additionally, such logs often use imposed criteria. But you're a (scoop of cotton candy + scoop of mint chocolate chip ice cream-loving) snowflake! Stick it to the man and try out ICE CREAM METRICS, where you can make up your own rules!
OMG. Does this journal entail math?
If Maria can do it, you can do it.
What type of math is involved/will my child be able to use this book?
