Evening escapade


I'm still stricken with flu, so was stuck at home all day yesterday. By nightfall, I needed a boost.
Solution: Bundle up and jump into the car with Fred. We zipped over to Bulk Barn, to pick up a few treats.

Familiar is always comforting. It's nice to know exactly which aisles to head down to get to your favorites.
Forget dallying. We just scooped 'em up, threw down our cash, scooted back to the car and beelined for home.
Popped in a DVD — The Wire, Season 4 — hunkered down on the couch and curled.
Here's what we ate:
  • dried apricots
  • roasted pumpkin seeds
  • plantain chips
  • more plantain chips (spicy)
  • dark-chocolate-covered almonds.
Mmm. Gotta say that this snack fit the occasion — perfectly. Mattered not one lick that we were pawing stuff straight from the bags.
As yummy as this snack was, and as comfy as our couch was, most therapeutic of all was just being with Fred.
No doubt, snacks are yummier — and more invigorating — when shared.
