The ultimate sleep-over activity. Although one *can* brain one's own hair, why wouldst thou bother?

I never learned to do french braids. Nor did my mother. In second grade, my idea of a perfect life was french braids, sandwiches cut diagonally rather than straight across, and snowball cakes in my lunch. Alas, these things were cruelly withheld from me. Sob.

Please accept my condolences. It is a sad day when parents refuse to cut sandwiches on the diagonal.

Probably if I had asked to have the sandwiches cut on the diagonal, my wish would have been granted, barring memory lapses! ;-)

The diagonal cut is the only way to ensure the halves are exactly equal without doing any measuring (without getting into any mathematical hair-splitting, that is)! That way, when you share with a friend, there's no possibility of getting the "short end". :^)

You're exactly right--especially when it's bread with that rounded bumpy top. As long as it's not wet bread, all is well.
