Yesterday I finally broke down and bought a toaster. I have been thinking about in on and off for a year - not a decision to take lightly! - especially since space in my apartment is at a premium, and not to be squandered with frivolous purchases. But then I saw a toaster on offer for 20 CHF, and pounced. This, then, is the result: the artery-clogging croque monsieur à la maison!
Made of toast, egg, cheese and bacon, of course. Unfortunately I didn't have any Camembert or Roquefort at home, so I had to do with plain, ordinary Vacherin. To make up for it, my toaster is one of those that pinch the toast between two concave forms - as a result, none of the fat of the bacon is lost. My heart will thank me for it, I am sure.
Oh, look, I think I see a vegetable! (Tomato, if you must know). See, you're coming along nicely on your path...
ReplyDeleteI haven't read that other Invisible Man either. I'm just, er.., poorly read in general. Thanks for stopping by!
Well,I am not sure if ketsup has even seen a tomato, but you are the expert here ;)
ReplyDeleteTo tell the full and horrible truth, I actually ate a salad before the toast, with tomatos and lettuce and other green stuff. Only that wouldn't have fit with the theme of this post...
