Step 1 Gift arrives in big box
Step 2 Take out big, shiny package from box
Step 3 Take food out of package
a) 32 ounces of Carnegie Deli pastrami
b) 32 ounce of Carnegie Deli's famous sour pickles
c) 9 ounce jar of NY Carnegie Deli Dusseldorf Mustard
d) loaf of NY rye bread
Step 4 Put it away quickly
Step 5 THE PRESSURE!
I have to fast for the next 20 hours due to going for quarterly blood work on Thursday and Friday at sundown Passover begins which mean I can't/won't eat any after Sundown as a pastrami sandwich on Matzah is NOT a pastrami sandwich having to wait until Saturday, April 27 sundown for that.
Either I eat between sunset on this Thursday and sunset on this Friday or spend 8 days hearing the pastrami, pickles, mustard and rye bread calling/torturing me ARGH!!!
Then, adding injury to insult, the following Thursday when I go back to my doctor I will get weighed!!
Mmmmm---I wonder if that friend who sent me this gift is really a 'friend'!? (Oh, I know she is. LOL)
