When I was young, my father invented a pretend holiday known as Big Sandwich Night, which took place the weekend after Thanksgiving. During this time, we would search for the longest loaf of bread we could find and construct a massive sandwich. Each of us would select extravagant ingredients to create our own personalized section before slicing it up to enjoy. Assembling the sandwich symbolized community and collaboration. Following this, we would set up our Christmas tree, signaling the start of the holiday season with Big Sandwich Night.
I grew up thinking this was a genuine holiday that everyone in America celebrated until, at around eight years old, I asked a friend if they were looking forward to Big Sandwich Night, and they responded with confusion. It was a bit of a blow to my perception of reality. Nonetheless, we continue to honor this tradition and have shared it with friends and loved ones.
As we've welcomed more participants, we've had to join loaves together to create a sandwich ample enough for everyone. Yet, it continues to embody the fundamental idea of everyone coming together to share the same sandwich in camaraderie.
