Here are some questions for the ages from our friend Rosemary
Zwick in Cape Town, South Africa:

Why can a pizza get to your house faster than an ambulance?

Why do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries, and a diet Coke?

Why can we buy hot dogs in packages of ten yet buns come in
packages of eight?

I know several people who are adamant that the words "elegant"
and "sandwich" should never be used in the same sentence, so
call these sandwiches what you will - I think they're elegant.

Avocado and Goat Cheese Sandwiches

1 large ripe avocado, peeled, pitted, and roughly chopped
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1 Tbs (15 ml) lemon juice
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1 French baguette cut into 4-inch (10 cm) lengths and
split, or 4 to 6 crusty rolls, split
4-6 oz (110 - 170 g) goat cheese
1-2 ripe tomatoes, sliced

Mix together the avocado, garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
Spread the avocado mixture on one side of the bread. Spread the
goat cheese on the other side, and place the tomato slices in between.
Serves 4 to 6.
