Except I didn't have a waffle iron. Well I did, but whoever used it last didn't clean it and there was cheese glued to every nook and cranny on the waffle iron. You probably guessed by now that we don't use the waffle iron for waffles in our house.
After spending 30 seconds or so trying to scrape cheese out of the waffle iron, I gave up and resorted to the griddle. It's only a lunch hour...I was running out of time.
I started with my most favorite bread in the whole wide world. This family from Mimbres makes it and brings it to our local farmer's market on Saturdays. It's sprouted grain and, in one word, DELICIOUS.
Slice a tomato. This one is also from the farmer's market...a rare vine-ripened tomato that I didn't think you could find anymore in the dead of November.
Smear two slices of bread with butter. I used Brummel & Brown spread, which is made with yogurt and has half the fat and calories. Bonus!
Next, you need basil pesto. I had some in the fridge from my last trip to Trader Joe's. If you're like me and you live in a land far, far away from the nearest TJ's, I'm pretty sure you can find pesto in any grocery store by the pasta. Presto! Pesto!
Spread the pesto on the side of the bread slices that do not have butter on them.
Don't forget the cheese! What's a grilled cheese without cheese? A crappy sandwich, that's what it is. This is a pile of mozzarella and Swiss that I had in the fridge from a rigatoni dish I made last weekend. You can use whatever you have, but make sure it's mozzarella. Translation: only use mozzarella.
Next, heat a griddle over medium high heat and place the bread, butter side down, on the griddle after it's had a chance to get hot. Arrange the tomato slices on the bread so that you're sure to get a piece of tomato in each bite.
Then pile on the cheese. Again, you can use whatever kind of cheese you have, but if it's not mozzarella, life as you know it will cease to exist. At least life in the sandwich world.
Now you're ready for the other slice of bread. Make sure you place it on top of the cheese with the pesto side down.
And flip!
Hello...I love you, won't you tell me your name? (Quick! Who sang that song?)
Happy Monday, everyone. You too, Jim Morrison...wherever you are.

DR WILLIAMS CURED 7 YEARS AUTISM
I am sharing this testimony for my daughter who suffered autism for 7 years. I am doing this, because I was her mother and caregiver during her dark days and am very happy to share it so that others can be helped through DR WILLIAMS HERBAL MEDICINE. It was a tough a battle for her; I was not actually the one who hard autism, but bearing the burden makes me understand what parents whose children and love with autism go through.
Lesia now 19 and was diagnosed with autism at the age of twelve, for seven years, she fought against her diagnosis. I must admit it was never easy for us as a family; we had to constantly watch her, and answer questions that we couldn’t explain. On several occasions, she asked if she will ever stop having speech delay and get well like her school mates and be the best swimmer she dreamt of becoming. She was a very happy child; and had a ‘normal’ childhood and there was no suggestion that she would later on develop autism.
She refused to accept defeat and fought autism. She religiously kept to her medications in spite of their side effects. We all wanted a cure, so that she can chase her dream and live a normal life like every other child. But the more she takes these medications, the more her school grade drop. She couldn’t concentrate and we noticed that her memory was being severely adversely affected. Each time we went back to the hospital, her medicines were changed to a different one. Seems like, each change of drug brings about change in side effects. After about 6 years on Abilify , Geodon , and other medicines, it seemed the autism started to increase in frequency. I had to make effort to reduce her medicines with plans to eventually stop it all. We found an alternative treatment in homeopathy, which was better than her English drugs. Gradually, I reduced her drugs, and her autism were no longer as frequent as it was as when she was on conventional drugs.
With our little breakthrough with homeopathy treatment, we made further search for natural cure. Fortunately we saw testimonies about herbal medicines which cure autism. We saw a lot of claims though, contacted them and didn’t get a useful reply. Lucky for us, we finally got a reply from Doctor Williams, he directed us to his blog where we saw a lot of information about his herbal medicine . Without further delay I made a purchase for her, I switched her over to it. We had great breakthrough, that in 3 weeks, her autism reduced. After 1 months as Doctor Williams promised , all autism symptoms stopped. It was like a miracle for us. since all this days now Lesia became autism free. Her story is quite lengthy, I hope it also help someone out there.for more information you can email Dr Williams on drwilliams098675@gmail.com
