After the <a href="http://Ttownmoms.com/">Ttownmoms.com</a>&nbsp;segment on <a href="http://kjrh.com/">Channel 2</a> yesterday and after I headed back out into the snow that was falling yesterday morning, I was on the prowl for lunch.<br /><br /><a name='more'></a>Sometimes I forget myself and point my car to a drive-thru. That's what happened yesterday - twice, actually. When I'm hungry (and other times, too), I'm not the brightest crayon in the box.<br /><br />I needed a quick lunch. I didn't have time to stop, eat and chat with a person who I'd inevitably know dining there (those of you who make a habit of patronizing local restaurants know what I mean). But, I wanted to put my dollars - I only had two in cash, by the way, so that was another constraint on my midday meal - in the pocket of someone as local as possible. <br /><br />Then, I had an idea. <br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tashadoestulsa/4343657786/" title="Oh, Taquito by Tasha Does Tulsa, on Flickr"><img alt="Oh, Taquito" height="375" src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4013/4343657786_3e666d767b.jpg" width="500" /></a></div><br />Oh, taquito. The one pictured is the beef and cheese taquito. It was so yum. Since I saved 40 cents by buying two - they're 2 for $2, or $1.19 each - I snagged the chicken taquito, too. The crispy, succulent, slightly spicy chicken taquito. Plus, QuikTrip is based in Broken Arrow, a very short drive from T-Town. That's local enough for me. Last but not least, I was in and out of QT faster than I could have made it through any drive-thru on Brookside at 11:45 on a Monday morning.<br /><br />It's no secret that I love taquitos, but I also can't wait until Tulsa-area farmers markets open for the 2010 season so I can stop in for a super-fresh, early lunch on just about any day of the week.<br /><br />What's your favorite quick, local food solution? <br /><br />P.S. - Here's lookin' at you,&nbsp;<a href="http://irritatedtulsan.wordpress.com/">Irritated Tulsan</a>, my favorite QT food chronicler.
