Food & Traditional Knives

We went to the apple orchard the other day, and it's time to make pies!
The apple corer/peeler/slicer my wife found on the river site works much better than a knife, I'm afraid!
We also came home with some of the booze that they make and bottle.
Apple pie and Bourbon Cream Whiskey. Sounds good to me!

Oh, OK! I got it. I've seen a few that had that extension. Interesting way to keep a big blade in a smaller handle. It probably cuts down on the weight, also. I like the scrimshaw on the handle.

A typical breakfast for me. I did have some yogurt too, that my wife insists I eat every morning!

That's some good variety :thumbsup: (apart from that weird looking juice in the metal beaker...;)) Fact is, the knife looks good enough to eat too, rich in minerals :D) Yoghurt I eat only at night time and not so often.
 
I was looking for a certain photo, but instead ran across a couple of food photos from our August vacation. I don't think I've posted this pair before, so I'll do it now.
Sandwich ingredients (except for a Romaine lettuce leaf) ready to assemble:

After assembly and adding some chips, let's call it lunch! (I don't remember why I changed my knife between these two photos.)

Now that I'm not teaching even one class, I'm usually home at lunch time 4 or 5 days a week. I usually just make a sandwich and eat a cookie, and drink tap water from an Aquafina bottle I keep in the fridge. (Twice a week, I go to the gym at lunch time, and usually take a sandwich with me to eat afterwards.) I experiment with different sandwich ingredients. Here's a BLC instead of a BLT, since I like cheese way more than I like tomatoes.
Here are the ingredients almost ready to assemble; still have to toast the multigrain bread. Note that in addition to the Bacon, Lettuce, and Cheese after which the sandwich is named, I also include some chopped onion, dill pickle slices, and Sriracha mayo.

Here's a photo of the finished product, followed by a close-up to show off the ingredients inside:

Tempting Gary, even the mayo, but I cannot go over to the dark side.
