not your everyday sandwich

growing up, my mom never packed me peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for lunch. instead, i had grilled cheese sandwiches via the nonstick sandwich maker! there i would be at the young age of 5, breaking out my foil wrapped sandwich, unveiling perfectly toasted, triangle shaped grilled cheese sandwiches, cooked 4 hours earlier, thus leaving me with soggy bread and cool cheese. this lasted for years. so in your face you standard run of the mill children eating your PBJ sandwiches with the crust cut off!

when i was old enough to make my own sandwiches, i started making the standard sandwich with deli meat, bread, cheese and condiments. i kept this up all throughout high school. after years of eating the same sandwich day in and day out, i became adverse to sandwich meat. not even can boar's head tempt me to go back to eating standard sandwiches. so i got creative.

allow me to introduce to you my grown-up sandwich.
