Man, it's a hot one, Like seven inches from the midday sun - a portion of the lyrics from the Santana song Smooth.
Yesterday was so hot it felt like the heat and humidity pulled the starch completely out of my button up shirt. I had just finished cleaning up a bit at my office and I needed something to cool me off. A sugar laden ice cold fountain soda wouldn't do it. Neither would an ice cream cone. I wanted something refreshing and healthy. That's when it hit me. A fruit cup.
I pointed my dependable beater truck in the direction of Las Nievas just around 6pm and once there took my place in a fairly quick moving line of customers. I ordered a medium fruit cup, complete with freshly squeezed lime juice and topped with chili powder. Cost? $4!!!
The contrasts of tastes and textures from the various fruits in the cup really hit the spot. Fresh pineapple, mango, watermelon and more. I took a seat next to their Sasquatch statue and enjoyed every bit.
I like the idea that I avoided high calorie alternatives for something so healthy, fresh and delicious. It was a really good deal for the amount I spent.
Who did I see? Lots of fit people, couples on dates, families with kids in tow and me.
Support small business as often as you can.
