Tomato Sandwiches


When Harriet the Spy came out I remember that every girl in my grade (I think it would be second) wanted to be a spy and ate tomato sandwiches everyday at lunch (personally I still like tomato sandwiches). Does anyone else remember anything like this?

Right after I saw the movie I went into the kitchen and made a tomato sandwich, took one bite and then went back and put ham, lettuce, and cheese on it. Lol!

Actually, yeah, I went through the tomato sandwich/notebook phase after seeing this movie LOL!

I'm the King, y'all know that. She the Queen, came right back.

Oh gosh I like the tomato sandwiches, their so good and healthy too! Anyways, I saw the movie in the late 90s, so I didn’t get to really see anyone in my six grade class obsessed with tomato sandwiches, but I remember after I saw this movie I brought tomato sandwiches to school for a while, not everyday but a few times a week. I would also pause the movie minutes before the scene when she would be making the sandwiches and I would run to the kitchen and make me some of those delicious tomato sandwiches and start eating them while watching the movie. Oh gosh I’m hungry now I guess I better go and make me some of those sandwiches right now!

I wanted to do everything just like Harriet. I always acted like a spy and did those crazy things. I'm sure I've seen the movie a million times! I wanted to do everything like her and be like her. I did the same thing whenever I watched Charlie's Angels.

When I first watched this film, I always wanted a Tomato sandwich for lunch. I also kept a very detailed notebook.

I don't like tomato, but I wanna be like Harriet.
I'm good at getting hated by random people I hate back.

If you love Jesus Christ and are 100% proud of it copy this and make your signature!

I remember being the only one of my friends to love it.

It was really sad(that none of my friends liked it), but I do eat tomato sandwiches to this day, but not because of that movie... they are just really delicious.

I remember when I read the book being startled by the idea of a tomato sandwich lol! I said to myself "And what else is in it?"
No one I knew read much, so I couldn't even discuss the book with anyone.
Readers were rare around here even back in the 1980s. Nowadays you'd be hard-pressed to find young readers that would even want to read a book like this...its not all 'spelled out' for you like "Harry Potter" or other boring fare like that.
