Chili Dog Menu Dash
Spinning that brass latch got my appetite revved up, so I dropped down straight onto the wooden host podium counter! Right in front of me sat an upright metal wire rack packed with laminated lunch menus. Peeking over the front edge was a colorful photo of a giant loaded chili dog smothered in cheese sauce. No hesitation! I grabbed the clear laminated corner with both gloves, braced my sneakers against the counter lip, and yanked it straight out of the slot with a crisp flick. I slid it flat across the counter, vaulted right over the glossy card, and tagged the photo with a solid high-five. That is today's ultimate goal locked in!
