Cheese Loves Me
I was at the grocery store the other day, in the cheese section, of course. Remember how I bought a wedge of brie? That was the day.
As I was leaning over the cheese display, I noticed that some of the cheeses were jumping! I had no idea why, but I thought it was cute, so I didn’t report it.
A wedge of Coeur de Lion Le Brie jumped high enough to brush my cheek with a kiss. What a nice cheese! I just had to buy it, because it loved me. And so I bought it.
Brie Sandwiches
Today I made Brie sandwiches, using “Enriched Finger Rolls”. I grilled them like grilled cheese sandwiches.
They were delightful, like little puffs of clouds.
I accidentally burned them a little, so I had to scrape off the burnt part. But despite that, they were delicious.
Coeur de Lion Le Brie
I haven’t been buying cheeses lately. But today I gave in and bought a beautiful wedge of Coeur de Lion Le Brie.
It was on sale for $7.99/lb (normally it costs $8.99/lb). The wedge I bought was $5.57.
I was considering buying a piece of Havarti instead, because it melts so nicely. I was looking at the prices - $4.49 for a little block of Havarti, versus $5.57 for a superwedge of Brie. The superwedge was clearly the winner, for its largeness.
It was packed on April 18, 2005, and its “sell by” date is May 2, 2005. That leaves me over 12 days to eat it. I think it won’t be a problem at all.
Cheese
This blog will soon be filled with cheese! I’m not kidding. It makes me hungry just to think about it.
I love cheeses, and you probably do too, since you ended up here! So welcome to the cheesiest blog in the world.
