Life is a Lazy Susan of Shit Sandwiches:

 Advice, Inspiration And Laughter From The, I've Had It Podcasts

This cute sandwich is anything other than a shit sandwich! Oh my, Panera Bread, you are my weakness... well actually... you were my weakness. Alas, I can no longer afford you, but with a little creativity, we don't have to necessarily give up on each other. It's not like I don't understand why everything has gotten unbelievably expensive, I know why... you know... why... but what's a girl to do? There is no fixing it. So, thank you Food.com., for providing me with this hack, it's greatly appreciated! I love Panini sandwiches and, as a matter of fact, I own my own panini press, and I don't use it enough! So this is on my list of Paninis to make the autumn, as we make our way throughout football season! Try sourdough pizza paninis sometime, they will rock your world! But this little sandwich sounded good that it will be my next delish kitchen science experiment! 

Yum!

Ellipsis Weekend Cooking... Pimento Cheese And Tomato Sandwich

 

"I can't for the life of me not eat something that I want to eat. You know how if your turned on a facet in your sink to wash your hands, the idea of leaving the bathroom without turning it off is insane? That's how I am about ignoring delicious food."

Why Not Me?

I love brand new make quick sandwiches, although I will never forget my first bite of an Olga, or a Croque Monsieur. I am looking forward to this one, for hot days, like today, when I just can' deal with stuff! You know, cat dramas, shootings under your bedroom window,  being charge double at Amazon, a cats which insists on standing on my computer keyboard, and connecting me to a random MAGA website. Ugh... you get it. So, what's a girl to do? She makes herself a drool worthy sandwich, grabs a fruit salad, and a coke, and settles down front of a movie with the best husband ever! 

I love the use of Heirloom tomatoes, but it's not quite the time of the year for them, so I am substituting red onion or perhaps some bacon, to give it a BLT variation.

Lunch In Paradise Park

"A picnic is more than eating a meal, it is a pleasurable state of mind."

~DeeDee Stoval, 125 Recipes With 29 Seasonable Menus

Alan and I took a long drive through Marin County yesterday, just visiting the little cities along the way, and seeing new beautiful places in the Bay Area. We took a picnic lunch with us, and finally stopped at the lovely Paradise Beach/Park in Tiburon. It is an amazing place, right on the water, and absolutely relaxing. In fact, it was a little too relaxing, as I could have very easily stayed forever. It's been way too long since Alan and I went on a picnic. I love dating that man! And I think I am in love with this park.
