Sandwich brain-teaser

I'm rather proud of this one.  :)

My youngest son asked me to cut the crusts off his sandwich:  fair enough (see photo).

But then he asked me to cut it into **two** squares.  Hm!

I told him that it wasn't possible:  I could cut it into two rectangles -- or perhaps four squares -- but not two.

But then -- inspiration struck!  I'm pretty darned pleased with the results.


Because the blog entries are posted in reverse-chronological order (i.e. most recent on top), I'll actually post my solution on April 9th...
