Hubby and I live in a revitalized urban neighborhood which has lots of retail and restaurants within walking distance. When Hubby is at work I am just a short stroll to pick up items at the market. Usually I try and run errands in the morning when it's cool, since this is Texas, and when I can safely jay-walk without fear of some speed demon running me down. Did I mention that there are quite a number of crazy drivers in Dallas?
Anyway, it seems like whenever I am at our neighborhood market there is always a fire engine parked outside. At first I naively thought that they must have a problem with people pulling the fire alarm -- some people have strange kicks. Then I noticed a couple of firemen with shopping carts buying food. So, what's the story with firemen and food? Is it because they have spare time between fires that they indulge in gourmet cooking? Perhaps it is to renew their energy in preparation for the next alarm. Wouldn't that make a great show on the Food Network? Have someone visit different firestations and have the guys prepare their best dishes? Or, maybe focus on one or two firestations? Of course, that could be problematic if an alarm sounds and the chef has to run to fight a fire. Very dramatic, though.
