Chips

Recently, I've been on a pre-dinner meal of chips kick. And Kettle Chips are my chip of choice. They're so crunchy that they drown out the accent of the BBC news reporter. They don't coat my fingers with a thick layer of grease. And, they've got some spectacular flavors: Chedder Beer, Yogurt and Green Onion, Spicy Thai, New York Chedder, Honey Dijon, Roasted Red Pepper.

I lounge around on the newly fashioned couch watching BBC News on PBS and eating chip after chip. And, soon enough, the bag becomes empty and my stomach full, and dinner becomes a notion of the past.
