Anyone for Grilled Cheese???

So cooking is not my strongest talent. I have gotten better over the years, but there are still things (seemingly really easy to make things) that I should know how to make, but don't. I grew up eating grilled cheese sandwiches. My mom would make them, I would eat them, that was it. Well, a few months ago, Chris said he wanted me to make him a grilled cheese sandwich. I told him I wasn't quite sure how to make it, but if he told me how, I would give it a shot. So, here is my first attempt...

Yes, the picture says it all.

A few days later I tried again. And this is what I got...

Now, I have made grilled cheese at least 5 or 6 times and I am perfecting the entree! So, if you ever find yourself in Missouri and hungry for a grilled cheese, I'm your lady!!! :)

Summer Visitor

This summer we have gone outside many times to see a new friend who likes to visit our backyard. She eats our grass, strawberries and hanging plants. I love our new friend and hope she continues to come and visit :)
