Sunday Stealing: Sit Right Down And Write Myself A Letter Meme

When was the last time you wrote a letter to someone on paper?

~ It wasn't a long letter, but I sent friendly postcards with handwritten messages on them. The last one? About a month ago! I ennoy doing this, and I'm sure they enjoy getting them -it's always fun to get a kind note with a cool picture in the mail along with the regular old stuff!

Favorite kind of sandwich?

~ I love many different sandwiches, including sandwich cookies! If I could nake the perfect sandwich it would be on a big kaiser or onion roll, have lots of rare roast beef, cheddar cheese, piled high with dill pickle slices, and have a special sauce, called Bosco Sauce,  the chef use to make at my old job at Rouge Steel in Dearborn. It was a sauce primarily for the roast beef sandwiches you could ask to have added on. I wish I knew what he put in it. I asked him but can only vaguely remember him saying beef base soup, some horseradish I think, and a couple other things. I worked y here from '87 - '89. That sauce was remarkably good!

Best thing to eat for breakfast?

~ I love all sorts of things for breakfast: poached eggs with soft yolk placed upon toast, mushroom & cheese omelette's with red hot sauce to sprinkle upon it, Coco Wheat with toast torn up and scattered in the hot cereal. The breakfast would definitively include orange juice and sausage links!

What is your usual bedtime?

~ Whenever I shut my eyes for it. I have no scheduled time. I live alone, collect disability, the only place I go throughout the week is dialysis. I'd love to go to bed every night at 9:00 like my sister's family, it would be a nice habit to fall into, but I can't get myself to do it!
