Midnight Snack Attack
Our dad was the king of midnight snacks, which were very elaborate, unusual and creative. As I’m posting this, my brothers, who inherited the snack gene, are at their homes in Houston and Birmingham, making midnight snacks. Guys, share?

I call this “THE Sandwich” because it is the best sandwich ever. It may not be healthy but is quite tasty. Oh yeah, and I invented it. No other human being had ever combined all of these tasty ingredients into one sandwich before me. Not even the Earl of Sandwich.
Toasted Onion Roll, w/ turkey, avocado, pepper jack, bacon and mayo….
MMMMMM

It may not be midnight but Sherri is completely aware of my 8am T-bone steak smothered with butter and Worcestershire sauce situation.

I once ate tuna fish mixed with mayo, bananas and black olives (I was in college and that’s all I had in the fridge)
I also once took mashed sweet potatos and put them in a tortilla wrap and crunched up Crispix cereal in it to give it an “extra kick”. (AKA-Ally Sheedy’s character in The Breakfast Club making a sandwhich)
Julia Child has NOTHING on me, gurl.

Is it wrong that I don’t think I have ever gotten up at midnight and eaten?
October 26th, 2007 at 2:07 pm
Yes. And you will be punished.

Mel, it isn’t wrong. It just proves you’re odd and there is something wrong with you and you should probably seek mental help.

I am the champion of late night eating. On several occasions I have eaten entire cakes. Usually Italian cream or Carrot. Once I ate all the halloween candy.

Mel, you really should get that checked out. Danny–tomorrow night’s your night! When they say, “Trick or treat”, follow with, “Is that all you got?” Then, implement the barter system if they want candy.

We didn’t even have any candy left! It looked like a parade going up and down our street. We ran out of candy and had to close all the shades and retreat to the back of the house!

Haaaa…I swear I’ll tell you when “anonymous” isn’t me. This is Sher. Triscuits are making some really cool flavors that work for midnight snacks. I really like cracked pepper and olive oil. Also, fire roasted tomato and olive oil.

Last minute Halloween decision at my household. Rest of the family had stuff to do.
I turned out the lights and kept the candy for myself. Doorbell rang once. Didn’t get it.
No trick. No treat. Nothing.
