Some kind of Caprese sandwich

You guys all must know by now that I'm a terrible cook. I always mention it to people so they are aware before they taste something I make. I'm trying to master the culinary arts by experimenting. Today I made some kind of Caprese Grilled Sandwich with a terrible technique but I think that it worked at the end. 


My "Caprese strange but tasted good" sandwich.

First I worked the tomatoes: Diced them and mixed them with olive oil, white vinegar, onions, salt, basil, oregano and a little bit of garlic. Then, (this is probably not the right way) I used a two slice toaster to give the bread a little bit of color and make it crunchy.  Next put in the sandwich the slices of mozzarella cheese (I only had Gouda this time), the tomatoes and a lot of basil. Put in the oven or in the microwave for a couple of seconds to melt the cheese. And enjoy... It actually tastes good, and I made it up!

Affordable fabric

Since I have decided to learn how to make new things, including how to sew, I wanted to make my own bedroom curtains. We went to the craft store and found this fabric, it was only $10 dollars for five yards. How cool is that?!
