This was a harried day with an early but large lunch. By the time I got away
from the office the last thing I wanted was to cook or sit down to a "dinner". I just wanted to sit at the PC, and relax against a background of the PBS Friday night jazz broadcast. Thoughts of instant snack foods filled my head, and a stop at the supermarket on the way home seemed to be the answer. As I entered through the produce section the pile of avocados caught my eye and the fact that there were some that were actually ripe enough to use. I bought several, enough for a nice bowl of chunky guacamole, not instant, but quick work. This store makes their own fresh tortilla chips throughout the day, so a big paper bag of those was definitely in order. They were still warm. I don't put tomato in my quac, but I had a taste for something with tomatoes. I popped down the Mexican food aisle and found a jar of black bean, corn, and tomato salsa. The in-store bakery beckoned on the way to the cashier. Did I have to see that fresh coconut cream pie? Not Southwestern, but their pies are definitely delicious. Death by snacking seems to be the course of the evening! :-) -- Wayne Boatwright *¿* ____________________________________________ My doctor told me to stop having intimate dinners for four, unless there are three other people. --- avast!
