Ham Sandwiches

I've found the recipes on epicurious.com to be generally reliable. The comments from the reviewers also tend to be useful because more often than not they come from relatively seasoned cooks with a reasonable sense of what works, what doesn't, and what would probably taste good.

The comments can also be quite entertaining. For example, a comment on a turkey meatloaf recipe might read, "I made this with beef and pork instead of the turkey, and put a ketchup glaze on top instead of the curry. Oh, and instead of the carrots and zucchini, I put in more onions and a little oregano, just like my Dad used to. It was fantastic!" I find these comments hilarious because once you've done all that, it's not really a turkey meatloaf anymore, is it?

When this happens, I'm reminded of the time I had a coupon for a ham sandwich and soda from the campus coffee shop. They didn't have ham, and they didn't have bread aside from a few bagels left from breakfast. So, instead of the ham, they gave me lettuce, and instead of the bread, they gave me croutons, tomatoes, a few Kalamata olives, and a little Parmesean cheese.

It was a lovely salad, but it was surely the strangest ham sandwich I'd ever had.

I just named it log_root.

Wait a minute.

Where did all these meetings come from?
