Hungry, but what to do?

It's 6:30 pm and the apple did not hit the spot.

There are light rye Wasa crackers in my drawer and those certainly don't seem appealing. Anyway, I had some for lunch.

I always keep a can of tuna on hand for emergencies. I'm not there yet. And frankly it doesn't look any more appealing on the screen than it does in my desk drawer.

These I'm saving for a moment when I'm desperate, or when the team of Living-Arts copy editors I feed on Thursday nights needs a pick-me-up.

Tonight they got Kathleen's Bake Shop "Delicious Chocolate Chip Cookies," made in Midlothian, Va. The box says, "Tastes like fresh homemade cookies!" They do not.

Sometimes that doesn't matter at all.
