No time to go to the grocery store and don't want to order out. Aha, a can of salmon! Two eggs in the carton. Are they still good? Yup... they don't float. Hard boil them. Celery, yup, got it. Need to use up this green onion bunch. Perfect! Out of mayo! Here's these little tartar sauce packets from the food delivery last month. Glad I saved them! Taste. Needs something. Ah, these little take-out containers of oregano herb blend with crushed red pepper. A sprinkle of that should do it. Taste... O.M.G. this is really good! Surprise! No bread or crackers, but here are corn tortillas, toasted!
