"OK, now looks closely" said Sen-Chan, there are two types of cheese here, Gruyère from Switzerland, which is a hard cheese, and Chaource which is a soft and creamy cheese. Unless you can get #1 to cut the Gruyère up into little pieces, the Chaource is the better bet because youc an simply lick it!"
And thus we spent a delightful and very companionable moment, enjoying the finest cheese! I can't wait for the next lesson!
Tom: Do NOT, for one moment, think that I am dispossessed! Believe it or not, #1 does not eat the rinds on the soft cheeses, and guess who gets them?! Do I look anything but spoiled?
Tama & Sen, have you an idea how many differents cheeses we have in France?
ReplyDeleteEndless expériences!

Mmmm. Nom Nom Nom! We do not get to try many human foods, but Gandalf likes cheese pretty good, when he can sneak some!
ReplyDeleteYou have to swipe some good vin rouge to go with your cheese. We used to have a cat that would wait until no one was paying attention and then creep up to drink beer.
ReplyDeleteYou guys are SO lucky! My mom is very bad at sharing her food.

P.S.: I love pretzel sticks and my mom has to be very careful when she eats them. I'll do any trick to get at them, but they are very salty...
Phew, we were worried that the Abys had gotten all the good stuff! Glad they saved you some delicious snacks.

Tom,
ReplyDeleteI saw your picture on Raising Addie's blog and thought: Oh, my dog! You look a lot like me! They told my mom at the shelter they thought I was a spaniel.
Woof!

Isn't cheese the best? It's the only kind of food that ever really sparks my interest. I'm glad that your #1 is thoughtful enough to give you the rinds, Tom, as us dogs would have a hard time leaping up on tables as nimbly as cats do.
ReplyDeleteYum! I get bits of cheese sometimes, but nothing like the soft cheese you describe..I must send mom out to the deli!
ReplyDeleteYum! Sen-Chan is the best brother ever to introduce you to such delicacies.
ReplyDeleteKon nichi wa,
