Toasty Cheeses

The first time I attempted to make my own grilled cheese was with the help of my neighbor, Matt.  We were at his house without any parental supervision & he asked if I wanted a snack.  I said sure & followed him to the kitchen.

"So you put some bread in the toaster & make sure it's on low," Matt warned & grabbed a plate.  "That's important.  You don't want it to cook too long."  

I couldn't believe this 8 year-old (I was 9) knew so much about cooking.  When it popped up, he unwrapped two slices of American cheese.  "Now, you put the cheese in between & pop it in here on high for 30 seconds."

"You microwave it?" I asked.  

"Oh yeah!" he said, "Wait til you try it.  It's so cheesy...and fast!"  When the timer went off, he cut it in half diagonally.  "Here, try some."

It smelled great so I took a bite.  "Wow, that's good," I said.  "I can't believe how crispy it is."

"Yeah, I love 'em," Matt said & motioned to the loaf of white bread.  "You wanna try making one?"

My parents gave me a weird look when I made Toasty Cheese at my house a few days later.  I admit now that using two appliances to make one simple sandwich is a little unnecessary.  That didn't matter to me then, because it was the first hot sandwich that I made on my own.
