le dîner

I made Croque Monsieur* tonight. It is to a grilled cheese sandwich, as Guinness is to root beer. How good was it? Sylvia not only ate it happily, but asked to save it for DESSERT tomorrow. Yes, it is not just edible, but can be classed along with chocolate and cake by a 4 year old.

er... is it just wrong of me to be nauseated by such things?

[gardenwaltz.livejournal.com]

quite possibly, but it would also fit well with the message of your icon :).

there are many variants to the dish including Croque Madame with egg on top and several other options that include seafood or tomatoes.

it's the bechamel. the thought of a sandwich with bechamel gags me. It just FEELS too rich. Everyone always says how wonderful they are, mind you...

I just can't bring myself to try it.

Heh, Marcus' mum made me a version with turkey and I have to say, I didn't see the appeal. And it was all down to the bechamel sauce. But I know it's a very popular dish, I just don't like those kind of sauces much. The idea people used to have it for breakfast at her restaurant was a bit bleh!

YES! It's the sauce!!

the thought gags me!

i wish you hadn't mentioned the idea of eating it for breakfast *shudder*
