Appetizer:
French bread, pre-sliced
Brie
Honey
Walnuts
Non-stick cooking spray
Coat a cookie sheet with non-stick cooking spray and place French bread slices on the cookie sheet. Lightly coat bread slices with non-stick spray and put into an oven pre-heated to 350. At the same time place Brie in a shallow baking dish and put into the oven at the same time as the bread. Remove bread when it starts to brown. Remove Brie as it gets melty and starts to pour out of the rind. Scoop some Brie onto the toasted bread, top with a few walnuts and drizzle honey over the top and eat. MMMMmmmmmm.

Dessert: Thaw and Eat Key Lime Pie. Bryan says he will eat a whole one while he participates in an online gaming binge on his X-Box. I would love to be able to stomach a whole Key Lime Pie, but I just can’t. I had trouble serving myself in the first place and dropped it on the table both times. Yes, I ate two slices. Can you blame me? It was Marie Callender’s.
