| BASIL,LETTUCE AND TOMATO |
Back when I was a meat eater (pre 1998) there was one food I could always rely on to make me feel good. The bacon-lettuce and tomato sandwich. 
Most vegetarian converts on initially switching to the non-meat eating diet will think of one dish that they think they will really miss and mine was the BLT. Somehow no matter how tired, hungry, stressed, I could eat one of those sandwiches and all was better. Now of course the thought of eating bacon makes me squeamish. But one always needs a comfort food. Especially after a night of work that is especially difficult. My fellow blogger and co-worker has a phrase that sums it up - Quelle Horreur! I had one of those shifts of which I'll spare even myself from repeating the details.
I now have my new and improved comfort food with the new B in the BLT being the delectable Puple Basil with Sungold Tomatoes and Red French Crisp Lettuce all fresh from the mornings Farmer's Market - aah.
Now I'm ready for work again..

That was funny! I'm trying to think of the food I most missed as a vegetarian. Thanksgiving turkey is one thing, and salmon, but neither of them is comfort food. There, I head for tea and toast. Great pictures~ and a delicious looking sandwich.
I love the new blog look.
