What I Made for Dinner: February 9, 2009

Nordstrom tomato-basil soup and pressed sandwiches.

Cub Scout Night = easy dinner.

Pressed sandwiches are so simple. The good people at Williams-Sonoma would like us all to believe that you need this to make panini: http://www.williams-sonoma.com/products/sku7117047/popup.cfm?tool=vLarger.

It is very shiny and gourmet looking. You could maybe open a sandwich stand with it. It retails for $249.95.

If you are having cash flow issues these days--and, well, anyone who is anyone is having cash flow issues--Williams-Sonoma obliges with this budget item: http://www.williams-sonoma.com/products/sku4635009/index.cfm?pkey=xsrd0m1|16|||0|||||||panini%20press&cm_src=SCH

which Le Creuset offers for a mere $80. If Bernie Madoff stole your retirement fund, you could go for the LeCreuset.

You know what I use to make panini? A cast iron skillet, and a cast iron skillet. And the sandwiches are lovely to behold. Although I bet they'd taste better if I had fancier equipment.
