Pentagon chief on inaugural tour of Europe to shore up defense ties 15 hours ago U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu give statements after their meeting at the prime minister s office in Jerusalem, Monday, April 12, 2021. (Menahem Kahana/Pool via AP) BERLIN Nearly a year after President Donald Trump ordered thousands of troops to leave Germany, capping a series of setbacks for U.S. relations with major allies, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin on Monday began an inaugural tour of Europe to shore up partnerships that are a cornerstone of the post-World War II order. Austin arrived in Berlin against the backdrop of a newly emerging crisis with Iran, which on Monday blamed Israel for a recent attack on its underground Natanz nuclear facility. Israel has not confirmed or denied involvement, but the attack nonetheless imperils ongoing talks in Europe over Tehran’s tattered nuclear deal.

In the U.S. April 12th is National Grilled Cheese Day. Crispy bread and melted cheese, how can something so simple be so delicious? This was my absolute favorite sandwich as a kid, the type of bread and cheese made no difference, although my Mom usually used American cheese on Wonder Bread. For me, this was the ultimate comfort food and paired with a bowl of hot soup I could dip it in, it was nirvana.Â
Confession time. Even though I have upgraded my taste in cheeses and bread, this is still my comfort food of choice. And if I am being perfectly honest, the very meltable American cheese is a hit. I do prefer a good sourdough or rye bread, but wheat will do as well.Â
