Zipper sandwich

This pouch looks just like a sandwich, unless you get close enough to notice the zippers across the top of both slices of bread.  I thought it would be fun to put my Metro SmartTrip card in it.

As you can see, it looks like I’m using a sandwich to get in and out of the Washington subway system.

I also used it to get out of the Metro parking lot, although it’s hard to tell from this photo.  But I liked the photo so much, I’m posting it anyway.  I want to thank Bob for taking these pictures of me, which put him at risk of looking almost as ridiculous as I did.

I bought this pouch at Franklin’s Restaurant, Brewery, and General Store in Hyattsville, Maryland.  I highly recommend visiting Franklin’s.  They have many tacky treasures in their store, and lots of fun toys as well.  After shopping, you can have a brew and some good food.  If you can’t get to Hyattsville, many online stores sell the zippered sandwich, under the name “Yummypockets,” which come in taco, pizza slice, and chocolate chip cookie shapes as well.
