sandwiches previous

Are you eagerly awaiting the weekend sandwich party? Of course you are!

The sandwich party arose as a joke, but Jagosaurus and I quickly realized that here was a dining challenge to which almost everyone could rise: eat a sandwich and tell us about it.

You decide how elaborate an event this needs to be. If the fancy strikes you, bake a fine loaf of bread, whip up homemade mayonnaise, and top it all with paperthin slices of home-roasted duck. Throw a tea party and serve pressed cucumber sandwiches. Browse The Sandwich Project for ideas. Describe your brown-bag standard. Give us your killer hummus recipe and tell us what vegetables go best with it on grocery-store pita. Tell us about your stupefyingly easy and delicious pulled pork sandwiches. Swipe one of your kid's Uncrustables* and tell us how it was. We're eager to hear how each of you plays with the basic (and I do mean "basic") idea.

For those running short on time or inspiration, keep this calming thought in mind: there's no rule against ice cream sandwiches or sandwich cookies. You have time to eat a Nutter Butter, don't you?
