Happy Friday!

The Friday before a holiday weekend always makes me giddy. 

May I suggest that this weekend you celebrate with a festive alcoholic beverage complete with an edible garnish and a pretty umbrella...

 Don't forget a savory treat...

Yes, I LOVE cheese. Remember this post? This plate includes hummus, apples, Turkish figs, tomatoes with an olive oil drizzle and Hawaiian salt, and an assortment of cheeses. Delish!
 A cheese plate is not complete without crackers and almonds.

 Don't forget to invite a handsome man :)
Have a fab holiday weekend!

For the Love of Cheese

I don't think it is much of a surprise at this point that I am in love with cheese. Not the make out type of love but the magical type of love.

I had the lovely opportunity of visiting Milwaukee this week and let me tell you, it is a cheese lover's paradise.  Hubbs was nice enough to locate a delicious cheesery for me.
 Yes, I drove about an hour from my hotel to visit a cheesery. (Is this a word??)  Funny that as I was driving to the airport I noticed this cheesery literally next door to my hotel.  Amazing how observant I am. 
Needless to say, I bought enough cheese that I had to rearrange my suitcase to make it all fit.  Did I mention having to carry it in my computer bag with me during all of my meetings to prevent it from melting and spoiling in my 100 degree rental car?  I am quite devoted to cheese.

I obviously bought one of everything.  Hubbs arranged the nicest cheese and salami plate my first night home. 

 Vino tinto was also invited to the party.
 And a bit of bread. Not much though, remember I am dieting.
 What is your favorite type of cheese?
