Maggie's Farm

We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.

A good sandwich


An excellent sandwich I had today: Crusty white bread, mayo, blue cheese, thin slices of apple, arugula with a little vinaigrette, and turkey slices. 


Have you had a better one lately?

No offense intended NJ, but that sounds like a girl samwich.

Arugula?

Sliced apple?

Real men don't eat that.

How about a medium rare, thinly sliced roast beef sandwich with home grown romaine lettuce, home grown sliced tomatoes, a few drops of Worcestershire sauce and some sparingly used mayo (not Miracle Whip) on rye?

That's what I had for lunch.

Yeah, it's probably is tasty, but the description sounds like something Obama would eat: guess it's the thin apple slices, arugula, and vinaigrette.

12" loaf of French bread, buttered, grilled and pressed, with fried oysters, shredded iceburg lettuce, sliced tomato, topped with cocktail sauce.

Southern barbecue, pulled outside meat, on a large, white, untoasted hamburg bun, medium thick slice of raw onion, beer of choice. Available only at dinner time (12 noon ± 90 min) from a ramshackle joint downtown in a deep south town of no more than 10,000 population. If you work with your hands, double the order.
