As a result of one of nature's oversights, however, many of the pollen grains reached another moist and sticky target first: a human eye or the mucous membranes of a nose or bronchial tube, where they set off a chain of events with...
There, in St. George, S.C., my lunch consisted of the perfect combination of starch, meat, and vegetables--perfectly spiced with hot salsa. The meat was tender, the vegetables fresh, and the dough moist. And It was all in the shadow of the golden arches...
