It was a great idea all along.<br /><br />Hooray for ten day visits from daughters who can now drive themselves long distances. :-)<br /><br />And I just added Monte Cristo sandwiches to my menu plan for next week - I love them and I haven't made them in ages.<br /><br />Try them with the preserves sometime - most restaurants around here serve them with strawberry preserves and it's delicious.Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13078572615133867629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28854403.post-23593518468643822972009-08-10T08:51:05.362-06:002009-08-10T08:51:05.362-06:00I love the smell of rain, too!
