The Tale of Monte Cristo....sandwich
So I found myself with with an unexpected kid free day (hooray!), and so I thought I would do something very adult. I called a girlfriend and invited her over for lunch. She mentioned something about no more peanut butter and jellies and suggested we do something exotic. I immediately popped out with "English Tea! You know, tiny sandwiches, tea, sugar cubes (do they still make those) and we can watch some long, incomprehensible British movie on Netflix.". Then shuddered a little that I considered English Tea exotic. She gave me a "Hell Ya!" and I felt much better. She made her way over, and I got to prepping crust less cucumber, watercress sandwiches and tea, set the table all fancy like and put on my best non sweatpants outfit. It took us about 30 seconds to realize that cucumber watercress sandwiches are pretty dang gross, hot tea in September in Florida is just plain nuts, and that neither of us really wanted to watch some forbidden love blossom
