Warm French Bread

We are a bread family. My father in law is italian, so there is no doubt where my daughters' love stems from. It's undeniable. Add some cheese and they are in bliss!

My favorite cheesy bread recipe.

Nearly stale french bread from Sam's. Seriously, they have the best non homemade bread.




Next, good olive oil. My brush was still rinsing in the sink, so I HAD to drizzle it on the bread.

Third, I added a generous sprinkling of garlic salt.

And finally, REAL mozzarella. Well, at least whole milk mozzarella. None of this low fat stuff. Once you go full fat, you can never go back. That's the saying, right?




It also helps to have a rock star cheese slicer like this from my husband. It is THE best! And we've gone through several.




Then throw it in the broiler. On HI. And watch it like a hawk. I am the world's worst broiler-er. Is that a word? It should be. I will NOT tell you how long it should stay in.

JUST WATCH IT!



And enjoy! My kids kept asking me for more. If only they knew I stole a little off their plates before doling it out!

***I'm realizing I should have entitled this blog, One Meal Away as opposed to One Craft Away. Seriously, all we do is cook and eat right?***

I will finally make myself post my craft projects. I promise :)

Slip of the tongue

I cussed in church.

I came home and told my husband THE word that I said.

I didn't just say it under my breath, I said it to a dear Christian friend.

I said the mother of all bad words.

And it was purely accidental.

I was trying to say "sucking fingers."

You can take it from there.....
