Good Sandwich

I thought this up on the drive home today, and it turned out wonderfully. I would include a picture of the sandwich, but I ate it.

Ingredients:
baguette
avocado
tomato
manchego cheese
dressing*

Slice a piece of baguette, cut it in half, and toast it lightly. Let bread cool. Slice avocado, tomato and manchego. Spread dressing on each side of the baguette and add other ingredients. Eat.

*Dressing
1 T Dijon mustard
3 T white balsamic vinegar
9 T olive oil

Whisk mustard and balsamic vinegar. Slowly whisk in olive oil. Dressing will be pretty thick.

Reader Question

My good friend, Lynn, posed an interesting question about jorts.

"I hope I don't have to pose this question in a haiku to have it answered... What I want to know is do they still sell these, or are guys wearing the same ones they've had for 15 years?"

Lynn, the sad answer is that jorts are still available. Here is a lovely Girbaud pair to remind you of your favorite jeans in the 80's. If the black doesn't work for you here is a great denim pair. Traditionalists will love this pair.

Jorts appear to be widely available and, from what I have seen at Astros games, are still wildly popular in some circles.

A good summer idea
Jorts are so tacky

Keep in mind that white flip flops, especially those with sparkles, really cheapen your look.

Huey and the Slumbering Patient

The Patient is Home

Will's surgery was today. It was supposed to be on Monday, but there was a scheduling change. We are at home and he is resting. The surgery went well, but the recuperative period is going to be pretty long. I am glad that school is almost over!

Huey is a great nurse.
