The 1st is Coming.

As we get closer to May 1st, we are trying to get organized and get a bunch of people together to make this first Sandwich Love Day as big as possible!

So, we have made a facebook group so that it might be a bit easier for us to keep in contact with people interested in helping or participating, and also just so we can all vaguely know each other and facebook stalk one another! haha.

so, here's the group. if you have facebook please join up and say hello.

It's been really exciting to see people getting psyched for this project. We have already had a couple people express interest in starting up Love Sandwiches in other cities, and at Columbia a lot of people seem really eager to help make Love Sandwiches.

Unfortunately photo madness has taken Riley and I seperate directions the past week or so, so we haven't had a lot of time to discuss plans for the 1st. However, some people have mentioned interest in getting together on the 30th and having a big "sandwich making" party. i think this could be a really fun idea, and if we can find a venue other than my gross apartment i will let it be known!

Also if anyone happens to work for a Sandwich shop (jimmy johns kids i know you're out there) and are interested in donating bread,cheese,or meat please drop us a message because that would be great!

As for the 1st, if you are thinking about joining us for Love Sandwich day don't feel pressured. One of the reasons I thought this was such a great idea when  I saw Riley doing it way back in December is because it is simple! And i think it should stay simple. It can be as simple as making one extra sandwich and giving it to someone on the way to class or work, or you can make a bunch and hit the town with em! Whether it's one sandwich or ten I guarantee you that it will be appreciated.
