Sandwich #166–“Lazy Morning” Banana Bread Sandwich
I will be fasting for the next three days. Between the fried chicken, a few glasses of wine last night and today’s banana bread sandwiches, My thighs are crying. E’s might be, too.
Sandwich #164–“Labor Day Labor” Pesto Egg-in-a-Hole
Working on Labor Day? No way! This weekend, we made plans to get in some beach time for the last weekend of the summer.
Sandwich #156–“Time Management” Egg White Scramble with Tomatoes and Green Onions
TO DO LIST FOR THE WEEKEND
Sandwich #155–“Three P’s” Prosciutto, Parmesan and Pesto Croissant sandwich
Rating: Our herbs had grown to an obscene height–they’re almost larger than the bamboo tree we have back there near the door. The only way to tame the forest growing on our balcony is to prune—and make pesto.
Sandwich #153–“Flick of the Wrist” Crepe Fruit Roll Ups
Yawn. Brush teeth. Make coffee. Check e-mail. Think about breakfast. Check fridge. Crepes. Crepes could work.
Sandwich #148–“Recess Friday” Bagel with Ricotta, Banana and Apple Butter
Fridays are a day of recess. They’re for planning the weekend, lingering over breakfast and arriving at work with a smile knowing you don’t have to come back the next day.
Sandwich #147–“Towel Stealer” Sriracha Egg Salad Sandwich
E has a criminal past. He’s a towel stealer.
Sandwiches #132, 133 and 134: “Still Sexy” Fruit and Peanut Butter Wraps
The Sexy Project is working! Yesterday, E and I went to an event in Central Park, for which I wore a form fitting black dress with very low cut cleavage and sky high suede Miu Miu pumps. I was working a sexy 1920’s flapper look with my hair in an updo, and the dress’ below […]
Sandwich #129–“Growing Children” Tomato, Mozzarella and Scrambled Egg Breakfast Sandwich
E is raising the children in our herb garden to be bright, healthy young sprouts. The basil has grown into full, leafy stalks. Our dill is tall enough to come up to our knees. The mint is as big as a rose bush and our cilantro has flowered. I’m so proud of my little father. […]
Sandwich #92–“Staying Skinny” Egg and Asparagus Sandwich
Rating: E and I–well, rather, E–are still trying to shed the winter weight before we go to Miami in a week. E is being more diligent about eating right than I am. Every time I suggested a sandwich to E, he screams like a girl on a diet in the high school cafeteria as to […]
Sandwich #90–“Beach Body” Scrambled Egg White Sandwich with Peppers
E and I are planning a trip to Miami in a few weeks, partly for work, partly for play. This will involve time on the beach in very little clothing, which will expose parts of our body that may not be in the tightest form.
Sandwich #44–“The Monte Christie” Monte Cristo
One good thing that came out of kitesurfing was that E wanted to get in better shape. Running is what I do to stay sane and stay skinny. I love getting outside, listening to music and keeping pace to thumping beat of dance music while letting my thoughts wander. Each morning, I throw my running […]
Sandwich #22– “Watch the Hole” One-Eyed Breakfast Sandwich
The thing I admire most about E is that he’s always happy in the morning. No matter if he’s hung over or hasn’t gotten 8 hours of shuteye, or it’s raining out or he has a tough day of work ahead of him, he’s always in a good mood when he wakes up. “Good morning, […]
Sandwich #18: “Early Rise” Egg and Avocado Sandwich
E woke up at 7 am on Sunday morning. I needed a few more minutes of shuteye, and didn’t stumble to the kitchen until an hour later. “Coffee,” I muttered. “Breakfast!” he chirped, but hadn’t started cooking. I looked in our refrigerator and noticed we had more than a dozen eggs, plus we had fresh […]
Sandwich #16 and #17–Bacon, Lettuce and “I Hate Tomato” Sandwiches
Me: I’m going to make BLTs this morning. E: Ooh! That sounds great. Except I hate tomato. Me: What?! But you eat them in salads? E: I hate them on sandwiches. They’re slimy. Especially if they have the seeds in them. Bleach! It’s just weird. Me: But you just ate fried green tomatoes on a […]
Sandwiches #12, 13, and 14–Ricotta and Fruit “Wake Up to Sunshine” Breakfast Sandwich
Friday morning means a slow rise from bed, coffee on the balcony until right before 9 am, and plans made for the weekend. E and I planned to spend all weekend at the beach, and that got me inspired to make a breakfast sandwich that tasted like pure summer. Ricotta cheese and fruit is the […]
Sandwich #6–“Birthday Breakfast” Peanut Butter, Nutella and Banana Sandwich
July 4 is my birthday. I usually have cake for breakfast on my birthday, as it has been my usual bday treat to myself since I was about 3. But since I wasn’t spending my birthday with my mom, who usually cooks said cake (red white and blue Jello cake with Cool Whip frosting, to […]
