Week of Menus

One evening to avoid the continual-mommy-cattle call, I escaped by making an appetizer for the family. I also chose to cook it outside on the grill so as to further avoid additional cries. Cooking it outside on the grill in 100 degree weather pretty much meant that Son and Daughters stayed inside, and I got about 10 minutes of peace and quiet by the grill. When I carried the crostini in, the cries began all over again. I quickly remedied that by stuffing a crostini into all open mouths and sat quietly in the corner enjoying the peace and quiet, however momentary it was.
