The Sunday Food Thread shambles indifferently into the kitchen, stares blankly at the pastel cabinets and raises a hand to the refrigerator door handle. The first tug is barely enough to budge the door, with a little more force a … Continue reading Sunday Food Thread Lethargy 6/24

The “Is it a sandwich” debate is fun and has its place, but that place isn’t here today, if it’s a sandwich to you it’s fair game to talk about it here.  Sandwiches come in all shapes and sizes and … Continue reading Have a Sandwich! Food Thread 6/17
