Brain Food



Cancer is always in the back and front of your mind once you've gone through the scare, treatments, quick change of habits and thinking. But you start gettin' comfortable after a time no matter what. And you cheat. It's back to sweets, i.e. cookies, cake, ice cream, fries. But not all the time. Still not eating meat. Proud of myself. Don't miss the hamburgers or chicken. Fish is filling the void. So I look for good fish places. Discovered one last week on the way to one of those designer circus'. Got free tickets. Not about to pay high price for food there. Knew circus food would not cut it for taste. Spotted a fish place. Decided to stop and try it. Man, it was good! They had fried shrimp, catfish, tilapia, red snapper, and buffalo. Got the tilapia (fresh, cooked to order, moist, not too salty); had great fries and a timble of cole slaw (slammin' good). But it was fried. Not so good. This place is on the other side of town, and with gas as high as it is, I won't be visiting too often. But those evenings when I'm yearnin' for something special, I might make the trip. Can't remember the name of the place, but I know how to get there. Sue
