I walk into my favorite cafe, Aroma Cafe in San Rafael. I hear the clanging of dishes and sounds of food prep. The espresso machine is steaming, I smell coffee and toasted bagels. It’s 10:16AM, I’m off work today. I get to the cashier and ask for my favorite treat, an oat milk latte or sometimes a Chai, and a Tofu Wrap, or sometimes a Falafel. These are my favorite treats or snacks, but they are more like a meal.

I bite into the tofu wrap, hummus, tofu, red bell peppers, fill my mouth with ultimate pleasure. I take a sip of my spicy chai and the flavors meld perfectly. The next bite I dip my wrap down onto the plate and scoop up some side salad with lettuce, tomato, raw onion and the tang of balsamic dressing.

Another sip of Chai. My body feels warm and healthy.

Yum I want to go NOW! I want this NOW!!!! Oh no what to do! I don’t want to leave my warm home, my last sick day from work on the couch with my sweet kitties, but now I want this snack!!!!
