Deli Cioso

I spent most of the afternoon purging unneeded items - specifically, my giant and mostly unread stacks of magazines.  I have found that most of my clutter comes from good intentions.  Someday, I will read that magazine, implement its wonderful suggestions, and have a happier life.  I can't get rid of the magazine, because I have not yet read it or used its great tips, and so it must sit, waiting, until I get around to using it.  I haven't brought myself to let go of some magazines, mostly food related, that are unread, but I am letting go of anything fashion or fitness related, since it will be quite awhile before I will be paying a ton of attention to either of those items.  I haven't counted up the magazines that I am donating to the library (many sadly never opened), but the stack is easily 3 feet high.  

After all that work, and hoisting around of big packs of paper, and the 90+ degree day, I was not in the mood to cook.  I really wanted a good burrito, so we went out to Deli Cioso on South Main Street (by Big O Tires).  I had been to another location previously, and while my husband swears that I wasn't impressed with them, I remember liking them.  More importantly, their kids' meal #1 includes both a crispy taco and a burrito, and Spencer absolutely loves getting both options.  I hadn't been to the South Main location, and I was very pleasantly surprised.  I liked the location; it had a laid back Southwestern feel to it, with maybe a touch of diner.  It was nice and cool but not overly air conditioned.  They brought Spencer's food quickly, and his burrito and taco and immense cup of milk were all $3.  One thing about Deli Cioso's burritos is that everything is a la carte.  You order basically the style of tortilla (regular, fried, etc.) and the meat, and then decide what toppings you want.  Each topping varies in price (generally about 60 cents or so).  The menu didn't specify this, but my burrito came with beans and rice and green chile over the top.  Everything was delicious.  John had the carne asada steak tacos with potatoes and posole, and it was all really yummy.  We'll definitely go back.
