I had a rather decadent sandwich for lunch -- brie with herbs, brown sugar deli ham, and sliced pears, melted on rye bread. Except I melted it open-faced so the pears were added last and still cold. I'm all about the McDLT effect in sandwiches. Actually in most food. While cutting my sandwich, because it was too unwieldy to eat whole, I was thinking about sandwiches being cut for me as a child, and I can remember graduating up from 1/4 cuts to 1/2 cuts, and how my mom always cut her own sandwiches into triangular wedges, but I wanted mine cut as rectangle. Now as adult, I slice is made in-between the two, into generic trapezoids.

I love that if you add a combination of cinnamon/clove/nutmeg to anything, it becomes "holiday-flavored". Or, alternatively, mint.

I am making oatmeal chocolate chip cookies, my father's quasi-secret recipe and I think...and I know this is kinda sacrilegious but, I think.....they are better with margarine. Not butter.
