Overwhelmed and Looking for Hot Sauce

This week has been batshitcrazy, not just in my own little world but in the big, big world. The Olympics started off with an unprecedented ceremony in China while Georgia, Russia and John Edwards decided to drop some bombs during our distraction. The POTUS campaigns seem to be in a weird place, building up the tension for their Veep selections. And then came the news that Mr. Isaac Hays and Mr. Bernie Mac have left the big, big world for presumably something much better.

Which brings me to a needed mental break courtesy of Mr. Bernie Mac and Mr. Issac Hays. Can you dig it?

Sfilatino

For the record, I’m done eating sandwiches on tough, hard, crunchy bread. The taste isn’t very satisfying, it wears my jaw out and gives me a headache. It’s sort of like eating a crunchy cookie vs. soft-baked but as if the crunchy cookie were made from bagged concrete. This is the experience I had eating a sandwich (or as much of it as I could) on sfilatino bread from Alidoro.

Still, much love to this wonderful SoHo Italian sandwich shop. I’ll come back in a few weeks for another sandwich assuming I’m not full the first one. And I’ll stick with the focaccia bread.
