Fully Half Empty weblog

Today is proving to be much better than yesterday.  I really haven’t felt too hungy today at all.  I’ve been very conscientious about drinking plenty of water.  I stayed busy at work today.  To be honest, getting through the work day was a breeze.

And then I came home…

You see, my wife makes the most incredible tasting and aromatic pico de gallo salsa that there ever was.  The minute I opened the door, my nostrils filled with the smell of ripe tomatoes, freshly sliced onions, garlic, jalepeno and, best of all, cilantro.  Immediately visions of crisp tortilla chips with huge mounds of pico de gallo danced through my head.  I complimented Delia on the wonderful smell she had created.  She was so apologetic.  She genuinely felt bad, I think.  The last thing I want is for her to think that she cannot cook all of her wonderful food any more.  She still has to feed herself and the kid!

It really wasn’t nearly as bad as I make it sound…but it did smell pretty amazing.  Delia was on her way out the door to some kind of recipe sharing party.  She took our daughter Soledad.  Now it’s just me and the dogs.  At least she took the pico de gallo with her.

I should go do something positive.  I guess it’s time for my walk…
