“Can I share with you my worldview? All of humankind has one thing in common: the sandwich. I believe that all anyone really wants in this life is to sit in peace and eat a sandwich.”

Oh, Liz Lemon – you fictional siren of Geekdom. Who of us geeky girls has not stuffed a sandwich into our face between meetings or other important events?

What simple things in life make you happy? For Liz Lemon, it’s sitting in peace and eating a sandwich. What’s your metaphorical sandwich? Or is it literally a sandwich?

My “sandwich” is writing. Sometimes, I wish I could just be left alone (sorry ACME Co.) and write. Sometimes I just want a sandwich. Really, it depends if I’ve eaten recently or not.

But the point still stands that the simple things in life are usually the best. The chance to eat a sandwich, write your story your way, or hang out with your family. Thank you, Lemon. You are an inspiration to all of us.
