Ham & Swiss revisited...

[osodecanela]

After torrid lovemaking, I was both wide awake & hungry; LJ was unconscious. After lying in bed & reading for 20 minutes, I grew tired of listening to my stomach growling & decided I'd get something small to eat. Ham & Swiss on rye with a nice smear of deli mustard sounded enticing.

Except nitrites and other preservatives trouble me, & rye isn't gluten free. That late night snack could be devastating.

Not. So. Fast.

Udi's makes a rye style GF bread that's one of their better products & I happen to have two loaves (1 each in the fridge & freezer). I also had a pound of organic, uncured deli ham, a brick of non-BGH, organic euro-Swiss, an organic red onion, and a GF deli mustard to die for rather than from.

Five minutes in the kitchen (mostly to get the ersatz rye toasted lightly) & I was back in the sitting room watching Burt Wolf touring Amsterdam.

You'd think from that meal I shop at Whole Paycheck™, but all of it came from Grocery Outlet at a fraction of the price.

I'm feeling not only smart & satiated, but rather smug, having done this on a shoestring. Now maybe I'll sleep.

I'm counting down the days until Friday, when the new Grocery Outlet opens up where the Fresh & Easy used to be, across from our home.
