SALTY SALTY MEAT MEAT AND OLIVES

My time at my current job is waning and I feel good about it.

One thing that has become a part of my routine is to listen to Young Jeezy and Zola Jesus while I walk down the street to the Essential Baking. I told them, 'I work at a cafe up the street but I like your cafe better'.

Then I say 'Put your sandwiches in my mouth.' So far I've tried many of them. My first favorite was the turkey and goat cheese sandwich. It comes with caramelized onions and arugula. And I mean like a bunch of arugula. Like a big thick layer of them. Like this:


A different sandwich is pictured. But a comparable amount of greens. The one I ate had even more. Oh that arugula. It is fucking good.

Today I had a sandwich called an Italian. It was on baguette. It had prosciutto, salami, provolone, roasted tomatoes, and OLIVE TAPENADE.

I thought about olives. How salty and strange they were How they had this soft bizarre temperature. I was like what the hell is up with these things? Do they just grow on trees with this ridiculous saltiness? Or do they like soak these bad boys or brine them or something? What is this crazy salt all about?

This is a mystery that, obviously, will never be solved.

But I sure have taken to olives. They are strange and salty. They taste good on pita bread. They go well with salty meats. SALTY SALTY MEATS YUMMMMM!
