egg salad samwiches

Yum. Egg salad samwiches. Just the

thought of them brings my mom to

mind. I can see her standing in

front of the kitchen counter

scooping the egg mustard mayo

and pickle concoction out of the

bowl onto bread, then ALWAYS

cutting the sandwich into quarters.

Unless you were going to be eating

them on a road trip. I can tell

ya, the quartered ones were and

are alot better.

Yea, I took the walk down

memory lane yesterday.

Cuz somehow we ended up

with almost 3 doz. eggs in the

fridge! So I grabbed the carton with

only a half doz in it, boiled em

up and made 'wanna be' egg

salad samwiches. Those are ones

made with the egg sliced thick and piled

on bread, thick chopped gherkins

all over the egg, lightly salted and

promptly eaten instead of being

lovingly chopped mixed tasted

and scooped.

They weren't quite as good as moms

but then nothin ever really is. And

they weren't quartered, but they

still took me for that much loved walk

down memory lane that always has

me smiling at memories of my mom.

And, Priscilla also likes gramma's

egg salad too. We got to share

them on a drive back home after a visit

to Clear Lake to visit. Remember Priscilla?
