F. Post-Serving Notes

 

The Meal

Yeh, yeh, I know, it's not exactly Le Manoir aux Quat'Saisons, and most people could probably manage to make a sandwich and heat a tin of soup without a page of instructions.  But that's not the "ThinkProof" philosophy, so yarbles to you.

 

Variations

·      Guess what: you could use different sandwich fillings and different soups.
