What's your favorite type of sandwich?

I used to think that I liked peanut butter and jelly the best, which, I'll admit, is still one of my faves, but I also am drawn to peanut butter and banana, too.  The peanut butter must be Skippy though, none of this Jif nonsense (and don't even say "Well, choosy moms choose Jif," because it should be "Cheap, stingy, or careless moms choose Jif" - JIF IS TERRIBLE!).  But then you can never go wrong with a turkey and muenster cheese sandwich, or a classic BLT.  Lately, I've really gotten into turkey rueben sandwiches, with coleslaw instead of sauerkraut, and obviously turkey instead of roast beef, as I don't seem to like sauerkraut or roast beef.  Call me weird, or simple, whatever, but I like what I like. =)

The reason I'm telling you this is because I have a new follower here on my blog (of which I am so ecstatic!) and Sam's blog is called "Sandwich 365," and it's all about gourmet sandwiches (Sam's Sammies).  If you have time, you should really check it out, but I'd advise you to do so on a full tank/stomach because the photos she (I think Sam is a she, but I still can't tell!) posts of sandwiches look and sound so simply delectable that you'll want to go make yourself one... or you might even become so desperate that you tear your computer screen apart trying to get that sammie.  Not only does she post pictures and descriptions of the "sandwich of the day," she also gives the exact recipe for it!  And there's tips for healthier sandwich ingredients, like other recipes for breads that don't use white flour!  So great!  Thanks for the follow, Sam! =)

Yesterday I bought my tickets for the midnight showing of "Alice in Wonderland," in IMAX 3-D, obviously.  Who else is as ridiculously excited as I?  Tim Burton + Johnny Depp + Helena Bonham Carter = brilliance, always, aside from "Sweeney Todd," but that's probably the only exception.  Make sure to check back sometime on Friday or Saturday to see my full, and hopefully very favorable, review of this supposed masterpiece of a film. I am quite excited!

Here's another playlist, but this one was compiled by a friend of mine.  He's been really great at introducing me to new music (well, music new to me, that is) lately, and I've listened to this playlist literally 17 times in the past couple of days, that's how amazing it is.  He titled it "Songs For You From Me," because he said that it "seemed the most obvious."

Pic of the Day for March 2nd:

Story: These photos were taken at Casperson Beach in Venice, Florida, during May of 2007.  My grandma died suddenly of a heart attack on Mother's Day about a week before I took these, and although it was great to have had a reason for my family to get together, it wasn't under the best circumstances.  My grandma was the most amazing woman I've ever known, aside from my own mother, and anyone who has been blessed enough to have been able to meet her knows why.  The day I spent with my cousin at the beach was special because it was the first day in awhile that I wasn't sad; I felt my gramma with me, and she would have been proud of the fact that I wasn't there mourning her death, but rather celebrating her life.  Even though this will be the fourth year without her, and it doesn't get any easier, I will always remember her amazing sense of humor, the massive amount of love she had for every member of her family, especially my grandpa, and, most importantly, for her selflessness.  She was truly one of a kind, and I am so proud and honored to have known her.  Love you, Gramma. <3
