Main Dish

Lest you think I spend any part of my days doing Important Things — preparing, and totally not at the last second or haphazardly, for my only child’s second birthday , or for his first week of pre-preschool; assembling warm, wholesome meals for his lunch each day; meeting my manuscript deadline; dealing with the shoe bomb that went off in my closet, etc. — it’s only fair and honest that I tell you that I’ve spent a significant portion of the last year considering ways to merge grilled cheese sandwiches and tomato soup in a single vessel. In a way, though, it relates to all of those things (well, not the shoes).Ingredients 6 large Idaho potatoes Vegetable oil , for coating 8 tablespoons butter 2 cups grated cheddar cheese , plus more for sprinkling 2 cups grated Monterey Jack 2 cups sour cream Salt and pepper 1 pound shrimp, peeled and Sauteed Paprika

Seeing as I am never short on opinion on anything–most especially when it comes to many Food Network chefs that so often grace my television set, Alex calls the Sunday noontime shows my “stories”–I can’t believe I haven’t previously said a single word about Giada DeLaurentis.
