Existential Friday: Cheese

DSCN5846a

I went a little crazy in the past couple of weeks buying cheese. The cheese looked really good to me at the grocery store, so I bought a bunch. Then a few days later at the cheese stand at the farmers' market, I bought some more. I now have a refrigerator full of cheese. Two or three kinds of cheddar, mozzarella, asiago, goat milk, three different kinds of soft cheese...

There's way too much cheese in there. I don't see how I'm ever going to be able to eat all that cheese before it gets mouldy.

It's possible that in the upcoming weeks, I'll have to throw away a lot of cheese.

Do you ever get the feeling that you have so much cheese in your refrigerator that there's no way you'll ever be able to eat it all in time? So much cheese, so little time... Do you ever feel that way? I just have too much cheese in my life right now.

Comments:
When you pass fifty, Oscar, the first thing you do is cut down on cheese purchasing. It's very liberating actually.
 
Please have a cheese party for your students!
 
Try this recipe.
 
Willi Lehner's Bleu Mont cheese from the Dane County and Westside Community Markets: very high end quality. Good choice. See www.babcock.wisc.edu/artisan/bleumont.pdf for pictures and explanation of how this artisan works.

quiche! quiche, quiche and more quiche! (real men DO eat quiche, you know)
 
You have either been watching the new "Wallace & Gromit" cartoon too much or not enough.
 
This foretells a religious epiphany and subsequent redemption. HELP ME, CHEESES!
