Spork and I ventured out in the rain today to try an awesome new sandwich at Jason's Deli, JB's Best Bagelini. It consists of turkey, provolone, guacamole, pico de gallo and (I think) a spicy aioli, all combined on a bagel and then pressed in a panini grill . It's served with blue corn chips and a really tasty fresh salsa. Yum! I snarfed the whole thing in record time, trying hard not to growl every time someone walked past the table.
Now for the "truth in marketing" disclaimer: My nephew, Jeff, is the mastermind behind this sandwich and it won a Major Award* in a Jason's Deli employee contest and is now on the menu board in all the restaurants. I think it's only available for a limited time, but I'm not sure about that. So just to be safe, you should probably jump in the car and go get one right now!

I'm not a fan of A Christmas Story at all. I have probably seen it once or twice but that's it. I feel no shame at all about that much less a shame X 2. Anyway, the result is that I have no idea what a "Major Award" is.
Uh oh John. Now you are truly in for it. I believe I said almost the same thing to her 13 years ago. Now she has me quoting the damn thing.
Beware of the evil, infamous 24 hour marathon that plays on xmas eve.
Did he get a french statue?
Ha! Nope, no statue or bowling alley, but it was a pretty cool.
John, John, John. I have barely recovered enough to respond. I still feel faint when I read:
"I'm not a fan of A Christmas Story at all."
Sigh.
But, to help enlighten you, a Major Award is the ultimate prize, the holy grail to the dad in the movie, much as the Red Ryder bb gun is to Ralphie. He is constantly entering contests in an effort to achieve fame and riches in the form of a Major Award. Unfortunately, the only thing he ever wins is the leg lamp. Wah waaah wah WAAAH!
=D I am so excited to be able to tell someone related to JB how wonderful this really is! I have been craving the Best Bagelini since I had it a week ago. Since my hubby would rather be grilling tonight than going out, I am settling for imitating it myself until I can make it to Jason's Deli again. Love the Christmas Story reference!
