The DN
 A QUICK ONE

1   So I'm thinking that a dinner consisting of whole saltless cashews and sharp cheddar might not be the healthiest.

2   As Caitlin used to say as a little kid, "It makes me have a headache!"

3   Out of the mouths of babes.

4   K.T. you always did have a way with words.

5   Saltless cashews.

6   Okay I'm down.

7   I grew up on unsalted ballpark peanuts. They switched to salted ones, with the salt looking like some thin silt. They never called regular peanuts "saltless." They called them roasted peanuts. Vendors would holler, "Hey, fresh roasted peanuts!" They weren't always, but it sure sounded better than "Hey, saltless peanuts!" Wussy, right?

8   When I first tasted salted peanuts I hated 'em.

9   I still ATE 'em, but only because you HAVE to have peanuts at baseball games. 

10  I'm pretty sure I can get hooked on most anything.

11  Over the years I would buy fresh roasted peanuts any time I could find them. 

12  The best roasted peanuts nowadays can be found at the San Jose Flea Market. 

13  They make a great companion to ice-cold beverages.

14  Ah, summertime...

15  Moving On, Part One: Summertime and cashews and cheddar for dinner. And an ice-cold...

16  <empty> <looking around>

17  Where's my Crystal Light?

18   Somebody SNAGGED it.

19   I can't live like this. 

20   My Crystal Light Cranberry-Pom. Must...have...now. Looks...like...this:


21  When it's being drunk, it looks like this:



22  Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk.

23  Good hooch, nyuk, nyuk.










 



24  Nothin' like a sweet cuppa of love.
















The End.
