Comté sarnies for lunch every day. <BR/><BR/>It's partly laziness because you don't have to think about what to prepare if you know you're just going to throw together a cheese sarnie. It does a decent toasted cheese sarnie too for when it's cold.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13195684182481935384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18862674.post-87547403045088672072007-08-08T12:40:00.000+02:002007-08-08T12:40:00.000+02:00If I could - and I don't suppose anyone's stopping...If I could - and I don't suppose anyone's stopping me although I'd probably die of a heart attack if I <I>did</I> - I would eat cheese, cheese, cheese all day long. I'd eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner and in-between. Just can't get enough. <BR/><BR/>When I was in Nigeria, some engineers living in a (relatively) nearby town, sent a <I>whole</I> Stilton down to the little village I lived in, for my birthday...they'd had it flown from England especially...People often give me cheese as a birthday present, actually.<BR/><BR/>During my first pregnancy, I ate two half-baguette roquefort sandwiches every day. Even now, when I'm definitely not pregnant, despite my huge tummy, I get irresistible urges for <I>crottins de Chavignol</I> and <I>pecorino pepato</I> and I just have to satisfy them.<BR/><BR/>Mind you, peanut butter comes a very close second, Sarah - especially the crunchy kind.Gigihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07442510440531817842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18862674.post-47190892933600879982007-08-08T09:22:00.000+02:002007-08-08T09:22:00.000+02:00From time to time one has to remind certain folk t...From time to time one has to remind certain folk that "one cannot prove a negative", eg in trying to convince that one is not this or that anonymous contributor to a blog.<BR/><BR/>Pre-1969 one would have been able to add, by way of illustration: <BR/><BR/>"eg one cannot prove that the moon is NOT made of green cheese"<BR/><BR/>So Armstrong not only added to our language ("one small step etc") but in a sense took away too. <BR/><BR/>You win some, you lose some ...sciencebodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12051016731274875332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18862674.post-85723568304166637632007-08-08T08:58:00.000+02:002007-08-08T08:58:00.000+02:00You comment makes me think of 'A Grand Day Out' wi...You comment makes me think of 'A Grand Day Out' with Wallace and Gromit, in search of the perfect cheese holiday.

Some folk drive 50 miles or more to stock up on the Cheddar, Marmite, marmalade, shredded wheat etc.<BR/><BR/>The French do some great cheeses, but nothing to match the immensely satisfying taste of mature Cheddar. One of life's disciplines is giving it time to chambré before loading it onto those brand-name cream crackers (also available at our shop).<BR/><BR/>Incidentally, the picture on Colin R's current post labelled Marché Provençal is in fact that of Antibes. Good cheeses can be had there too, but not you know what.sciencebodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12051016731274875332noreply@blogger.com
