Jamie Lynn has one more class in her advertising master’s program at UT.  Help her by participating in her final survey!  She is conducting research involving Super Bowl advertisement recall rates.

If you plan on watching the 2008 Super Bowl and would like to participate in Jamie Lynn’s survey – which will involve two brief online surveys, one approximately two weeks before and the other within 48 hours of the game’s broadcast – please click here and provide your name and preferred e-mail address. The link also provides more details about the study.

Jamie Lynn needs at least 50 participants who are able to take both surveys so please feel free to forward this information to anyone you know who might be willing to participate!

Occasionally, I will go to one of those “package your dinner” places and assemble some meals.  It’s great to have some fast meals available (different than your usual menu – spice it up!).  The last time we attended a night of dinner-making, we assembled a delicious recipe …

Enter the big sandwich.

Oh goodness, it was delicious.  When we saw the Big Sandwich on the menu we all speculated what it could be.  I wondered if it was just an actual sandwich.  Blair hoped for a glorified hot pocket (Jim Gaffigan anyone?), Ryan didn’t pay attention when I told him we were going to make a big sandwich and Andria was just curious.  We were all a buzz about the Big Sandwich!

Well, Blair was right on.  The Big Sandwich is a loaf of bread filled with deli meat and a pound of cheese.  Delicious.

Now that I have my bread maker and no longer avoid recipes with yeast, I made the big sandwich myself!

Here is the recipe:

Make dough for a 1.5 lb loaf of white bread (Hil Street suggests Egg Bread).

Spread the dough out on a greased cookie sheet and lay a few pieces of deli ham, deli turkey, pepperoni and grated cheese in the center of your spread-ed dough.

Close up the dough like a burrito and pinch the ends together (Ryan brushed butter, garlic salt and Italian Seasoning over the top of the loaf). Bake in the oven as long and as warm as your bread  recipe instructs.

Voila!

Slice into pieces and enjoy. We suggest enjoying your big sandwich “a la Blair” – with marinara sauce.
