Grilled Cheese Sandwich Recipe (And Soup Accoutrement)

Shopping list
butter
bread
velveeta
oregano
plum tomato
peppermill blend ( yes, I put this in Everything)
Campbell's tomato soup
Milk

Make soup per instructions but add a can of milk instead of water and plenty of fresh ground pepper. Voila - creamy tomato!

To make sandwich, melt a few pats of butter on a microwave safe plate while preheating frying pan to medium low. Deseed and thinly slice tomato. Slice the velveeta thinly if you can, if not NBD, it's pretty malleable. Soak up the butter on the plate with a slice of bread, place in pan, add cheese, a sprinkling of oregano and pepper, and some tomato before soaking a second piece of bread with butter and slapping that on top. Press down a bit with your spatula on your sandwich and check often to make sure you don't burn it, as it should only take a few minutes per side.

Cheap and easy just like the powerboat club girls but way more satisfying.

Good Morning Miami

It's on morning's like this that I really feel the full effect of some of the priveledges my life (and husband) provides me. I love when I wake up before he goes to work and we have that 45 minutes to hang out and talk, smoke and watch the dogs run (and potty) in the yard. Those moments make me smile all day. Then he leaves and I'm all up and Twittering and watching the Today show and a little voice inside of me is all "Don't you want to go back to sleep?" and that's the beauty of it. Because I always can later.
Someone snuck in and gave Nico the crappiest haircut ever when I was sleeping. Oh no, that was me. It's really not that bad but a little more light and a little less bacardi would have gone a long way. He's still not ready for his close up. Is this terrible that I am seriously considering asking Alicia, my buddy Danny of Shampology Salon and Supply right hand gal, to fix his hair while I have Danny fix mine? especially because she has little dogs and knows how to handle them.
In other news, I have officially scrapped the summer volunteering at Fairchild. I am still in to assist in the office for the Fairchild Challenge in the fall but the commute, my low tire, the bugs, the heat, the potting, and finally my mysterious possibly mango related rash ( tk god that is going away) just all add up to "I can't possibly go" every week.
And finally, I just got off the phone with my gorgeous husband and it looks like the pink slips are coming down on a few more heads this week. Good riddance to all that slows him ( and our next payday) down. In this economy, it astounds me that some people can't afford gas and some are buying million dollar gas guzzling boats with 60K paint jobs. I guess I'm comparing Orphan Annie to Daddy Warbucks though.
MMMMMmmmm Grilled cheese sandwiches on Today Show. OOOHHH the grilled cheese invitational! Why was I not invited! I have the best grilled cheese recipe EVER! ( To follow) Oh man, I just heard a crowd of people shouting "We want cheese!" Or was that just the voices in my head???

Style of The Day

I gave Nico a haircut tonight with my J.A. Henckels kitchen shears. If you ask me, my work was Shear Genius. Will post pics tomorrow as I feel lazy (read: buzzed) on this Thursday evening with a long night of fun (read: pina colada making and My fav night of TV ever reruns while R sleeps on couch with hot pack on his hip.) Nico looks smaller now but cuter than ever. He is sleeping from all the excitement. He was getting super scruffy and now I will have to scrounge tomorrow to see if I have any good documentation so like, 3 people can read this. I digress, it's not the time to beat up on the self, especially not after achieving Shear Genius results on my first tiny dog and kitchen shears haircut. Only in this case, I would consider the cut a success just b/c no one got cut. Okay, I think it's time for a self -inflicted blogging restriction. As in, "friends don't let friends blog buzzed."
Goodnight Blogosphere...Goodnight Web...Goodnight Twitter...Goodnight Head...

Have a happy hot and humid Miami evening all!

Fancast.com! YAY for TV fans everywhere

Guess what everyone? Come in from the pool and power up that laptop because I'm about to share the greatest thing to happen to Summer Television since Reality TV. It's called fancast.com
and while it doesn't have nearly as many shows as ITunes, it's free and doesn't require harddrive clogging downloading like Limewire or any other one of those shmageegies I can't quite figure out. BTW I managed to find some S4 entourage ( which I mostly missed) on Limewire once then couldn't figure out how to watch them. That was the end of that. While Entourage is not on fancast.com yet, I bet it will be soon. Today I watched some Epi's of the Hills, getting ready for the new season in a couple of weeks. G*D was it weird to see pre nose job and pre spencer Heidi. It's like from before she became a Stepford Wife! Seriously. Or just a Stepford Social Climber. And I am also 100% sure Spencer is gay. Who's with me?

Oh Fuhcackduh!

I just heard that Jen Lancaster was at BlogHer08! How could I have missed a chance to rub elbows with one of my fav authors and inspirations? I digress, clearly it was just not in the cards yet. BlogHer09' girls... I'm on it!
