Bonus Delicious -- sandwiches beat pizza

The last day my mom was in town we were organizing my studio and were both hit with hunger. We were running low on groceries since they were leaving early the next morning. Even though we still had dinner planned, we didn't have lunch.

"Where could we get food?" she asked.

"I don't know, there is this pizza place that has gluten free dough that I've been wanting to try, it's just up the street."

"Oooh, that sounds good, can you order online?"

I was looking at the place's website and suddenly it all got too complicated. How to pay, I'd have to read her cc over the phone to them? It would still take over half an hour to get here, and by then our hunger might turn into hanger. We were hungry now. Would we go pick it up? It seemed silly to have them deliver. And then I said "Are you sure there's nothing here we could eat?"

Then one of us said "Let's go check." So we went to the kitchen. The hunger had scrambled our thinking wires, but there was still rice bread that David had bought, salty crunchy tortilla chips for the side. A little more searching yielded the rest of the makings for delicious avocado, tomato sandwiches. We had just enough brain power left to get all the fixin's onto the bread.

We decided the path of least resistance was to use what we had.

Don't these look great! A delightful alternative to ordering out.

And afterward I got a big hug from my mom who said "You just saved me twenty-two bucks!"
