Things that are good to have: Friends who go to Italy and bring you back giant pieces of incredible parmigiana cheese. You know who you are, and giant hugs to you. Jars of Stonewall Kitchen jam. We've been over this before in previous posts, but it bears repeating. A loaf of crusty bread, either your own homemade version or a loaf from your favorite bakery. If you have both of these things, you are halfway to a fabulous sandwich. And while cheese that has been personally carried through Customs is the best-tasting of all, you can also get a lovely chunk of it at your local deli and it will be almost as good, and then you are still very close to the previously-mentioned fabulous sandwich. Hungry for a ham and parmesan sandwich with jam? Let's make one...or two!
