I was going to suggest that also. And try herb goat cheese in your "samich."

If anyone is in touch with Jan please let her know she is dearly missed!

I did tell her today and she appreciates everyone's good thoughts. She doesn't know when she will be back on here.

My son cooked bacon today. I got hungry and this thread made me want a grilled cheese sandwich. So, instead of putting butter on the bread, I just fried it up in the leftover bacon grease in the skillet. I am ashamed to admit just how good it was!

(Also missing Jan here as well, hope things get better for her.)

There is nothing more comforting than a grilled cheese sandwich and tomato soup. Unless, of course, it's mac & cheese!!!!

Ain't that the truth! Wish either/both were options for me. Sadly only on very special occasions.

Aw, the tin of bacon grease that sat on the stove or in the refrigerator... I know it got added to fried potatoes and green beans, but I have no idea what else mom/gramma used it for. My dad does almost all the cooking now for my mom (she got spoiled!) so she doesn't have the tin of grease anymore.
