anatomy of a perfect sandwich

this particular first edition: The Classic Roast Beef & Swiss



(actual sammie)

to start:
toast 2 pieces (level 8) pepperidge farm family size white bread


side one:
mayo
on top of which apply a heavy layer of horseradish and freshly cracked back pepper (i kind of mixed mine around making a very simple sauce of sorts)
follow with 3 thinly sliced pieces of rare seasoned roast beef
add one large slice of a ripe tomato split in half, that has been salted and peppered to taste
next add red onion slices, cut into small enough pieces to break with the bite

side two:
a generous portion of nathans famous deli mustard
(good to know i can buy that in an 8 pack from amazon)
a thin to medium thickness slice of swiss

put together and slice on a diagonal





this is in fact what i do with my time
perfect

mistakes

i lather rinse repeated today because i accidentally put shampoo in my hand when i meant to put conditioner.  while i recognize that it was probably bad for my hair i figured it was probably worse for the economy if i dumped it down the drain.  now my brittle hair is a constant reminder of how jewish i can be.

in other news i wasnt paying attention at work this evening and i brewed too much coffee to the point where it overflowed.  in order to stop the coffee from spilling out all over the stainless steel i had just polished i opted to try to stop it from brewing with my hands.  this resulted in molten coffee grinds covering my left thumb down my wrist, which then basically burst into flames.  its been about 2 hours and it burns so horribly bad still that i may or may not die.  i think i might actually be able to see it real time turn into a blister.  this was only one of about 12 awful mishaps i had tonight.  work is hard.
