After a false start, Nathan correctly guessed that the Giants fan in last week's picture puzzle was making a purchase from Swiss Delices on Santa Maria.

That fan is Castro Valley resident Scott Pfefer, who runs a jewlery store in Pleasanton.

Patch caught up with him on his day off when he indulges in two of his favorite treats: a sandwich from Bob's Hoagy Steaks in Hayward followed by some truffles from Swiss Delices.

"Nine months ago I was told I had six months to live," Pfefer said, thus on his free day he thinks: if this was my last day to live, what would I eat, and the hoagy and truffles are it.

Last week we showed the back of his head, with the Giants insignia cut into his hair. This week, we uploaded a picture of Scott Pfefer facing the lens. Click on the other photograph with this story.
