Finally got the nerve to make one of these cool little things after admiring the work of others.Now, a few things you can be expecting out of my scrap:

Some southern recipes!
Sometime's I've got an axe to grind so be expecting some rants.
Some updates to those who may be interested in a thread or those I'm threading with. Updates are nice. Especially for those who wanna know.
Take some epic shots of trips I go on. I usually go on plenty and my friend is a professional photographer who has given me some pretty decent tips! I usually make quite a few trips down to my stomping grounds each year.
Post an opening for sketches or art sometime. My skills have improved deeply!
Southern talk as I've just realized I've been typing a lot of it so far.

Now that that's over, pull up a seat, enjoy a drink, and go hog wild! Just please no flyin' off the handle please! Unless in response to my rants.

To kick off my Scrapbook, I'm going to share an amazing Southern Tradition in my family that has been passed down generation from generation. This is a delectable and cheap way to kickstart a lunch or even supper. If you don't like mayo, you won't even taste it. I hate the stuff but am addicted to these amazing sandwhiches!

Ingredients:

Mayonnaise
1 Good Sized Tomato (1 for every two sandwiches)
White Bread
Pepper

Steps:

1) Get two separate plates as you will need it. I usually use paper plates for easy disposal once I'm through.
2) Get your bread slices out. For best results two slices per sandwich. My cousin uses one piece of bread then folds it in half. Would not advise this if your looking for the best taste.
3) Spread a decent amount of mayo over every bread slice then put a decent amount of pepper on each slice.
4) Cut the tomato into thick slices but thin enough where you can pretty much cover up the mayo on the bread slice. (Does not have to be completely covered.) This is what the second plate is for the prevent the juice of the tomato from making your sandwich bread soggy.
5) Place the tomato slices on one piece of bread per sandwich. Place it on evenly.
6) Put your bread slices together and enjoy your amazing sandwich! It is definitely amazing after a long swim in the hot sun and is extremely refreshing.
