I am making roasted red bell pepper/fontina cheese and grilled chicken sandwiches. I forgot to ask Leone to bring bread home from the restaurant, so I sent my mom off to Ralphs to pick up a baguette or some other type of bread to make the pannini.
Ralphs is closed. Trader Joe's is closed. Vons is open, but their bakery section is completely cleared out. There is no bread in the city of Riverside. This is a travesty!
Yes, I could have planned ahead and purchased my bread yesterday. But that would have required actual planning. Not previously one of my strengths, and certainly not one at this stage of my life. Emergency phone calls to Leone (who is making orders at the restaurant) are going unreturned.
Coincidentally, I was catching up on my "Splendid Table" podcasts this afternoon and I heard about a book that says you can have fresh, artisanal bread every day in your house in just 5 minutes.
Perhaps this is a sign that I should get the book???
