I just had the best B.L.T.
That's right, bacon, lettuce, and tomato on two slices of Stroehmann flax and grains bread. I had fresh tomatoes and lettuce in the crisper, a plastic jug of mayonnaise, and a package of bacon. But since I do not eat pork (I love pigs and they should be pets) I instead used turkey bacon (turkeys should not be pets). Bread in toaster, four slices of turkey bacon in frying pan, two slices of tomato, and a thick layer of lettuce. Good eatin'. I even did the dishes immediately afterward because I am somewhat O.C.D.
So, in summation, on this too-humid June evening, it was a delicious B.L.T. for one who is slightly O.C.D.
Why am I sitting here writing this? Despite the wretched weather, I must get ready to go out. Last night it was an excellent time with the cabal at 'Bar on A' (between 10th & 11th on Avenue A - duh). Tonight? Not sure yet, but with the summer heat, it will truly a hot time in the old city - let's hope that aphorism works as a metaphor, as well...

Hi, and thank you for the kind words. I'm glad you stumbled across "This Side of the City." Part of my original intention of this blog (besides having an anonymous public forum for my ideas, thoughts, and events in my life) was to let people find it on their own. If the blog piques a random stranger's interest, then I hope for return visits. Your future pop-ins and any additional comments are always welcome.
