THE COOLER SOLUTION

How does one enjoy a spinach salad purchased at the store if one wants to add some favorite salad dressing while one is 'on the road?'   One solution would be to find pre-packaged dressings that don't need to be refrigerated.  What if the favorite dressing only comes in a bottle that does need to be refrigerated?  There is the cooler solution.  It's seems hard to believe that as a 'road warrior' who has spent 20+ years bouncing around from hotel to hotel that it never occurred to me to get a cooler.  Well, it did occur to me on Monday. Now I am the proud owner of a 28 Quart, IGLOO brand cooler on wheels.

I can now travel with salads, salad dressing and cold drinks.  I believe that my road experience will be vastly improved by this addition.   I also believe that I will be able to save some money by shopping much more at supermarkets when traveling.   I am looking forward to utilizing this cooler.  Hard to believe that I had never considered such an investment in the past.   I guess when one can stop at any Burger King, McDonald's, White Castle, at will - there is no reason to plan ahead with one's meals.   Everything is different now.  My lifestyle is much HEALTHIER and starting this week, my lifestyle is much COOLER!
