Yesterday’s dinner: Turkey on really good wheat bread, with mayonnaise, Tillamook habanero jack, lettuce, tomato, and alfalfa sprouts.

Yesterday’s lunch: Bologna and lettuce with mayo on cheap wheat bread.

Yesterday’s breakfast: A bacon cheeseburger from the gas station. (A burger is technically a sandwich. If you don’t accept that, then I had a bologna and lettuce with mayo on cheap wheat bread for Thursday’s lunch.)

Excellent! We like Reubens, but Mrs. L.A. complains I make them too big. I understand the words individually, but not when she puts them in that order. 😕

You do realize that “reuben” is a 70s-ish term for, uh, being premature? 😃

To itemize my last 3 sandwiches, I’d have to go back 2 months. So don’t recall at all. Something with meat, avocado, no tomatoes.

It’s been quite a little bit, but the last three were probably all BLTs.

Haha, I just bought a package of bologna and a loaf of white bread because I had a sudden craving for the bologna sandwiches of my youth. Just bread, mayo and bologna. So far I’ve had one for my last two lunches and yesterday I also had one for breakfast.

I plan to eat one whenever I feel like it until the bologna is gone.

My more upscale sandwich before the bologna binge was pastrami, smoked gouda and hot mustard on Asiago cheese bread.
