Use It or Lose It


I've been wanting to move out of my one-bedroom apartment for sometime now. Realizing that it could be many more moons before I'm able to do that, I want to make some more space here. I'm tired of the clutter. Call it a New Years Resolution, but I've been trying to make a mental inventory of the junk which is in my possession. Now I look at everything and think "when was the last time I used that? Will I be using it anytime soon? How much could I get for it on Ebay?"

It was during that process that I stumbled across my George Forman Grill. It was a gift from my grandmother about 5 years ago and I've used it about 5 times. I was just about to look for the box and start calculating shipping for my newest Ebay auction when I had a great thought: PANINI!

I threw together some turkey, pepper-jack cheese and regular SaraLee bread and...PRESTO! My very own panini. I've had one for lunch every day this week.
Benefits of at home Panini:
*It's about $6.50 cheaper than Panera Bread's Panini's
*It takes about 2 minutes to make
*It is zero mess, just wipe down the GF
*It's hot and healthy and pretty filling
