Drizzle with the dressing just to coat (you might not need all of the dressing).Heat a large grill pan or skillet over medium heat until water flicked onto the surface sizzles immediately. Butter one side of each slice of bread. Lay the slices butter-side up on the hot skillet and heat until the bottoms are lightly toasted. Flip, and immediately add one slice of cheese to each of the toasted sides of the slices. Let cook until the cheese begins to melt. Spoon crab salad onto two of the bread slices. (The amount you use will vary according to the size of the bread - you might have leftover salad.) Top each with the other two slices (cheese side towards the crab salad), and continue cooking, if necessary, to toast both sides of the sandwiches.Serve immediately.

There are 7,500 varieties of apples grown throughout the world, and if you tried a new variety each day, it would take you 20 years to try them all.

Food Joke

A monastery in the English countryside had fallen on hard times, and decided to establish a business to defray their expenses, such as a bakery or winery. Being English, however, they decided to open a fish-and-chips restaurant. The establishment soon became very popular, attracting people from all over. One city fellow, thinking himself clever, asked one of the brothers standing nearby, "I suppose you're the 'fish friar'?" "No", answered the brother levelly, "I'm the 'chip monk'".
