For our flight from Arizona to California on Christmas Eve day, we arrived at the airport right at lunchtime with just over an hour before the plane left. Mom dropped off the rental car while the rest of us stood in the security line, yet because of Mom’s TSA PreCheck status, she skipped to the front of the line and still passed through to the other side before the rest of us.
As soon as everyone else had laced up their shoes, my family split in three different directions. Dad and I headed for the restrooms right next to our flight’s gate, but Mom and my brother rushed over to the food stalls in search of lunch. Nearly everyone was starving!
Mom returned shortly after with water bottles, a ham and Brie sandwich for Dad, and a box with fruit, cheese, and crackers for herself. My brother arrived a few minutes later, right before we lined up to board the plane, but because of his many food allergies, he only found snacks instead of a full meal.
However… His snacks still looked delicious! Roasted peanuts, crunchy crackers, and a large double chocolate cookie.
