Mini sammie

Yesterday at work we ordered lunch from Quizno's. I was perusing the online menu and the sammies (I keep meaning to research where the term "sammie" originated. It sounds like something from a kids' menu.) looked pretty tempting, sort of like an open pita. I ordered one of those and at the last second threw a small cup of broccoli and cheese soup onto the order for good measure.

When the sammie arrived, I was astonished -- astonished at its smallness, that is. I don't consider myself a big eater and don't exactly need large portions to feel satisfied, but this thing was miniscule. Unfolded, it was maybe five inches across, and had a small dollop of meat and some tomatoes and ranch dressing inside. I've decided that sammies are like tacos. If you want an actual meal, you don't order just a single small taco and nothing else.

Luckily we have a drawerful of snacks here and I was able to heavily supplement my single-sammie lunch with a handful of Hershey's Nuggets here and there, all while contemplating whether I'll be able to make it through 30 Day Shred when it comes. Here's hoping.
