You Might Think....

...that cracker and cheese sausage would be bad in a breakfast sandwich. You know, the kind of sausage that you buy from Trader Joe's with the intention to put out for your holiday guests alongside some fancy cheese and crackers, but then you end up "trying one slice" and before you know it you're so in love with those thin little circles that you've eaten the entire thing and now won't be able to sleep because you have a pound of spicy meat product in your stomach, and it didn't exactly get up and throw a party when you decided half a bottle of red wine might help soothe what you just put in yourself, which was really stupid now that you think about it and just a drugged-by-meat theory that alcohol burns calories and is a good disinfectant, even though that's really just rubbing alcohol and doesn't apply to pinot in the same way, but what's done is done.

You might think that kind of sausage wouldn't work well with scrambled eggs and toasty bread. . . and it doesn't really. You might have been right. It wasn't bad though, you can tell from the picture below.

But I think what's more important is that someone at my work actually took the time to make breakfast sandwiches for everyone in the office.

That is awesome.

This someone is OBSESSED with egg "product" and eats it all day long. I'm worried. BUT...it did make the house smell awful nice this morning. Funny he didn't leave me any :(

That food looks horribly damaged. I bet it can destroy your insides and make it feel like an alien is going to shoot out your abdomen. Then as you are there dying from the alien puncturing your vital organs you will wonder "Why didn't I just go to Jack in the Box?" and then death.

Hope it was worth it.

Anna, you didn't miss much. Actually, you might have won out on this deal.

Ogre, to answer your question, it was worth it only to get a 6am call from this certain someone asking me to turn the toaster oven on cuz "you've got a breakfast sandwich comin'" which of course got me all happy cuz breakfast sandwich = food, unless of course it's made with summer sausages that are typically given as gifts at Christmas time almost as frequently as fruitcake.

And we ALL know how tasty fruitcake is.
