Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup has always been a family favorite. It's a feast around here. When I announce the savory dish, I am met with a chorus of "Yums"! Being the kind mother I am, I allow them the feast often--weekly, in fact. It's affordable. I use milk, not water, so naturally I feel like I am providing a nutritious dinner...lol...plus....how easy is it to make? Thank God for Campbell's!!
Since she could talk, instead of saying 'grilled' cheese, my daughter has called it 'girled' cheese--not boy cheese, but girled. She had ear issues as a tot (tonsils, tubes, adenoids) and wasn't hearing properly there for a while. Girled Cheese was just something we didn't correct. It was cute, that girled cheese! It stuck.
Before long, we were all saying it. Girled Cheese.
Just a few days ago I walked in on a heated argument between my daughter and her friend.
"Nuh uh....it's GRILLED cheese. G-R-I-L-L-E-D."
"Well, you're wrong," said my daughter, hand on hip, in her most condescending voice,
"It's GIRLED!!! G-I-R-L-E-D!"
With a smug look she turn to me and said, "Right, Mommy?"
Oops..................
ROFL!! Cute story!
