Man, you guys eat good! 🍽️🍔🥘🥗
Grandkids are here today, so I'm making a sandwich and hoping I have enough time to eat it. If I can post too it'll be a minor miracle.

Marble Rye (always makes me think of the Seinfeld episode), turkey, Swiss cheese, and sliced up cherry tomatoes (from the garden), chips and a dill pickle spear. The coup de gras is the Saratoga Garlic Sambal Aioli. The first time I saw this stuff was at a farmers market in Saratoga Springs. It was recommended by a cousin who lives there. I rarely have a sandwich without it! I don't get to Saratoga often enough, so I order it online now. Can't find it locally.

Boker Gent's knife helped me slice the tomatoes.

Nice looking sandwich, getting hungry over here.:p
I drive past the field where that garlic is grown almost every day on the way to my mountain biking trails.
Thought I added some pictures of the garlic field with my BF Swayback earlier....?

Looks like a tasty lunch, Gary! 😋 Marble Rye makes me think of Seinfeld, too. I like to use it for corned beef sandwiches. (Old pic, but I don’t think I’ve posted it in this thread before.)

Love that mug. I was grocery shopping yesterday and saw a distinguished gentleman wearing a ball cap with “GRUMPY” embroidered on the front. I think I may be approaching the age where I should have one made for myself.

Thanks, I've had mine a while! 🤣 I got the notepad at the same time :D ;) :thumbsup:

That sandwich looks great, Barrett! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool:
I haven't had a corned beef sandwich in ages, which is somewhat strange considering that at one point in my life, unmarried and living alone while in grad school, I made and ate a Reuben sandwich (rather light on corned beef and heavy on sauerkraut) almost every night for supper.
(I stumbled across this charming and sometimes hilarious story while googling to check that I remembered what the ingredients of a Reuben sandwich are:

Barely 2 weeks past Bastille Day and you're suggesting that we all eat cake, Jack?? 🤓
(Again, I did a Google "fact check" to check my memory that Marie Antoinette said, "Let them eat cake.", and discovered that another of my "truths" is actually incorrect, at least according to Wikipedia. o_O

Definitely! :D :thumbsup:

Still a very commonly misattributed quotation my friend :) Politicians here still, regularly, give similar advice though :rolleyes: While others want 'to have their cake and eat it' :D

A week ago, I planned to make a sandwich for lunch. Imagine my disappointment when I discovered that my wife had used the last of the dill pickle slices the previous day! :( But I did the best I could. Here are the ingredients I ended up using for my sandwich:

The summer sausage slices, spicy brown mustard, and slices of extra sharp cheddar cheese were part of my original plan, but the hot pepper rings, sauerkraut, and cornichons (some kind of little spiced-up gherkins) were all substitutes for my dear departed dill slices.

Turned out to be a pretty good sandwich after all, and adding some Amish potato salad, tortilla chips, and beer resulted in a very satisfying lunch!
