Success!

After reading about the BLT from at Merritt's Store and Grill on Kathiey's blog back in June, I have been on a mission. Fawn and I tried, but alas, we arrived too late. Epic fail.

Today however, was mission accomplished. I took Kathiey's advice and got a double.
It was delicious!



In my mind there are three sandwiches that are meant to be on white bread. Meant to be like a commandment handed down by God.

They are:
  1. BLT
  2. Ham
  3. Meatloaf
Do you know some people have never had a meatloaf sandwich?!  That is just wrong in all sorts of ways.

I love meatloaf, perhaps because my mother's was excellent. Part of the joy of having meatloaf was leftovers for sandwiches. White bread, mayo, slab of onion, thick slice of meatloaf, and a wee sprinkling of salt. My mouth is watering. I have an excellent turkey meatloaf recipe from Picnix Bistro, a restaurant in San Francisco that's probably long gone now. Send me an email if you'd like to try it.


In other news, I had my haircut today. I know. Quick, call the BBC.




Got there a bit early so I took a stroll down Trinity and hung a right on Watts. It was so charming. Sounds of children playing in the park, cute craftsman bungalows with big deep porches and gardens spilling out onto the crumbling jagged sidewalk.




Then, a nice surprise, CP called and suggested dinner. I met her at the Wooden Nickel and had the best fish and chips I've had in a long time. Afterward, up the street for Margarita pie at Gulf Rim, where a cute tow-headed girl at the next table spit water on my feet and then shared her Play-Doh.

It was a good day.

  1. You finally made it!!! I am so glad you liked the BLT. Now I am hungry:-)
    Alas I am one of the few who have never had a meatloaf sandwich. I love meatloaf so I know I would love the sandwich.
    Here is another sandwich that should only be served on white bread...the
    Flutternutter Sandwich. Full of calories and yummy. I have not had one in years.

  3. Ooohhh. Kim. Another reason to be jealous. Why did we have to miss it when I was there? Now I'm going to have to fly all the way to N.C. again just to have that sandwich. Geez!
