Last Sunday, the day after the big Baking Extravaganza with Smitten Kitchen, Deb and I decided to take it a little easier. This meant that instead of making her stand on her pregnant feet for nine straight hours, I let her stand for only seven hours. I could tell she really appreciate my empathy and compassion.
I like to make my light shine like that.

I was in the mood for a panini sandwich for dinner. I decided to marinate some flank steak in a balsamic, Dijon and garlic marinade. Looking through my refrigerator and pantry I found an onion, mushrooms, mayonnaise, garlic and low fat blue cheese (it’s really good and has great flavor) – all the ingredients you need for a tasty steak sandwich. I always make my panini sandwiches “dry” instead of coating them with oil and they turn out extra crispy without being greasy. This was an excellent sandwich that we all enjoyed. My son and I had blue cheese. My husband, who doesn’t care for blue cheese, had Swiss and my daughter had no cheese. These sandwiches were easy to make with little clean up.

Then I put on some massive asparagus and some blonde squash, division down the focus with a little pizzazz, saline, and a little emerald oil on the quiz. Zucchini squash, red timer scatter, finicky beef steak tomatoes, and everybody’s choice corn on the cob are all vegetabl
