Loved these sandwiches. I did a few things different. I didn't peel the grapes, too much work. I simply sliced them and tossed them on. I used DH homemade white bread and spread the outside with butter. I placed the cheese on the unbuttered side and drizzled a touch of honey over it b4 adding the grapes and topping with another slice also buttered on the outside (sorry, I am a bit sleepy so this is probably gibberish). I then stuck the sandwich into a press and let the cheese get all melty and the bread toasty. It was wonderful and even DH who was not happy when I told him what was for dinner, changed his tune when he bit into it. So good, and would even be well recieved at a tea or other type of gathering (lunch? lol), you know, with guests lol. Good night, and thanks for a great sandwich recipe.

I'm an ex-pat NZer living in the tropical Top End of Australia. Which makes it a perfect place to make homemade bread and summer recipes all year around. I experiment on my 3 kids who have grown up trying new Zaar recipes every other day and they are thriving.
I'm the lacto-ovo vegetarian in the family and somehow I got roped in to become a Forum Host here at Zaar. So check out the Vegetarian and Vegan Forum http://www.recipezaar.com/bb/viewforum.zsp?f=43 and feel free to join in whether you are a fully fledged vegan or someone who needs to cater for a vegetarian and has no idea where to start.
Every year I try to do something a bit different to push the envelope a little bit. In 2005 I learned how to sail a dinghy; 2006's grand passion is mosaics. Check out my blog!
Between raising three children, working almost fulltime and trying to pursue my hobbies...let's say that my time management skills have greatly improved over the years!
I am also very interested in living a sustainable lifestyle. Essentially I'm finding that I'm getting back to the country lifestyle I enjoyed in my childhood even though these days I live in themiddle of suburbia. To this end I have started gardening although I am a total gardening virgin when it comes to gardening in a tropical climate. I also have a cookbook with a number of recipes you can make from scratch. Living clean and green is good for you AND cheaper!
