cheese glorious cheese

was thinking of entering a cheese contest
run by Ile De France Cheese
and started to look at the numerous
cheese displays from the various catering gigs that
we have managed to get photos of
(never have time to take photos
of the best ones it seems)
and it was just turned into
a cheese glorious cheese experience!!

Hope you enjoy looking at all these
delicious and pretty cheeses!

So figured I would share the wealth
so to speak or at least the photos.

Who said that man can not live on cheese alone

- certainly gout could be a problem, but oh what a way to go!

So the criteria for this blog is either straight up cheese board stuff
or food with cheese featured in them
- like the watermelon + feta salad with black olives + mint.
