Gourmet dining backfires

There is only one downside to going home for Thanksgiving:  Becoming accustomed to eating well.  All week I’ve been able to indulge in delicious turkey, ham, and casserole alongside fine wines and pies galore.

Now I am back in Austin, and my cupboards are lined with a limited stock of beans, ramen, and unseasoned cous cous…

And my stomach is begging for plentiful portions of so much more.

The lifestyle and diet of the poor college student is a peculiarly humorous one indeed.
