My youngest daughter just asked, "Can you ever sit still?" Of course I answered, "No". At age twenty two she shouldn't have to ask. She's had years to observe me.
I'm pretty sure that I am the source of ADHD in four out of my five children. I have to multi-task or I fall asleep. I can't watch a movie without doing something else whether it be reading, writing, cooking, or playing on the computer.
She can't understand me. Worse, it seems I annoy her.
But that's me. I can't sit still.
So I've been up and down cooking while blogging, and taking pictures of my creations to add to the blog. Before I started cooking we shopped at BJ's Discount Center. Did I mention I have a family of 6, almost all big eaters and food lovers like me? I have to save money any way I can to afford to feed this troop.
Tonight I made a very simple, yet tasty dinner - grilled cheese with ham. Whereas I hate tuna, I LOVE ham. Ask my lunch friends at work.
I used to get this dish at a local diner. Unfortunately, the diner closed so I'm making this tasty sandwich myself.
INGREDIENTS:
2 slices fresh thick bread per sandwich (Texas toast is really yummy)
2 slices American cheese per sandwich
3-4 slices deli ham per sandwich (the more the better)
butter or margarine
DIRECTIONS:
Butter one side of each slice of bread. Spread butter evenly over the bread.
Place the butter side down on the plate of one slice. Place one slice American cheese on top of bread. Cover with 3 slices ham. Top with the remaining slice American cheese. Then top with the remaining slice of bread, butter side on top so that it will touch the skillet.
In a preheated non-stick skillet, place two sandwiches at once. Fry until the side is golden brown. Flip the sandwich. Fry until the second side is also golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Transfer to its plate. Cut into four equal pieces, one catechorner to the other.
Serve warm with fries, sweet potato fries, or a bowl of soup.
