I'm laughing about unknowing how to make this one. I never made it before, but I made it three days in a row (just using up ingredients...) Now I'll have to wait again until next year. And the tapenade? Loved it too! That one I can justify making again sooner.Betsyhttp://aplatefulofhappiness.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4850658802486564843.post-51568700291351653402016-04-16T16:11:59.950-04:002016-04-16T16:11:59.950-04:00I don't want to undo the learning how to make ...I don't want to undo the learning how to make the sandwich. For some reason it took me almost an hour to make the bechamel, the vinaigrette, assemble the sandwiches, fry up the eggs... I have to admit the bread I used was special, so if I have another loaf from that bakery I might skip the Madame and the salad. <br /><br />Have fun and get your dance on, lady!Adrianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14637535335728408445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4850658802486564843.post-60845936229697866202016-04-16T15:35:49.331-04:002016-04-16T15:35:49.331-04:00Congratulations!

Have fun at the wedding! And good luck with your course. Writing courses can be rewarding and mind-frizzling in equal measure.

That is almost 16 BCM recipes ago! And I agree, comfort food should be much harder. This is too easy and too delicious.

You have no idea about this age thing and time blowing by faster and faster. It's not fair. I cannot believe Runner Girl is graduating either. I do remember her last year of high school and your sending her off to college. Good for her. I feel the same way about these two recipes. Easy and delicious and easy and Unknow (in that order.)
