Search Results: calling the same day

Ok so my friend who lives like 10 minutes away and wants to hang out every single day is at home by herself. She’s been at home all week by herself because her parents are on a cruise and she’s an only child. She also has no car so I’ve had to pick her up. I’m also her only friend. I guess I could say the same for myself. I invited my friend over today for the 4th because my family has games, bbq, we are going to watch fireworks, dance to music and my friend is sitting at home herself. My entire family (relatives and all) knows her since we have been friends for 8 years so it’s not like she’s never met everyone. I tried calling her 3 times and was on my way to her house and she called me back 45 minutes ago and told me she just got out of the shower and is in a towel and not dressed so I turned around and went back home and told her to call me when she gets dressed. It’s been 45 minutes and nothing. Should I call her back? What should I do? My parents are wondering if I have to go get her or not?

Okay, hear me out before answering or calling me an idiot. This just came to me, and I haven't slept in like 3 days and it makes perfect sense to my sleep-deprived brain. I also wrote 1.4k words on why it is and know I need a hobby but that's beside the point.

Sandwich - an item of food consisting of two pieces of bread with meat, cheese, or other filling between them, eaten as a light meal.

Cake and bread have nearly the same ingredients, the main difference is bread has to rise, but they're both carb-based foods with similar textures. There are also certain cakes that are half-bread half-cake mutants, so I define cake as a type of sweet bread.

The filling in between said cake slice is arguably similar to a Nutella or peanut butter and jelly sandwich. And there are savory cakes with cold cuts (smörgåstårta, for example.)

Sandwiches aren't usually eaten with utensils whereas cake is, however, I've eaten sandwiches with a fork and knife before and it didn't make them any less sandwichy, so I don't think one could discount cake just because it's commonly eaten with a fork.

TL;DR: Cake and bread have almost the same ingredients and similar textures, so I define cake as being a sweet bread. The filling between cake layers is arguably similar to a peanut butter jelly or nutella sandwich, and I don't believe utensils play a huge role in defining food.

So, ignoring the public's opinion on this, if an individual wanted to define their slice of cake as being a sandwich, could they? Or would that just be absurd?
