ocean girl planted in the desert for the last 7 years, cook, pet-sitter, traveler, avid reader with somewhere over 1,000 books and more coming in fast, much to my hubby's dismay -
myrtle the shar-pei, bobolino and pogo the cats share my life too, and occasionally get treats fresh from the oven.
ONE of my biggest pet peeves is people calling a sandwich "panini": in italian, panino simply means sandwich of any type, hot or cold -
1 sandwich = 1 panino
about 1970 the big new fad was toasted PANINI [plural] at our local bar or "paninoteca" - the trendy name for the place selling them back then. so if you eat panini it means you are eating several sandwiches so you must have a big appetite or you're eating tiny little ones, and not necessarily grilled nor hot!!
AARRRRGH!
