Charles de Gaulle once famously said, "How can anyone govern a nation that has two hundred and forty-six different kinds of cheese?" We poke fun at the French calling them cheese-eating surrender monkeys, but they do know their fine food.

Whenever I stop at a Publix grocery store I get stuck at their display fridge full of international cheese with the atrocious prices. I try to move yet still stand there mesmerized, determined to bring a spare $100 next time and grab a few.

Found a page about good Cheese-of-the-Month Clubs (yes, still a thing). Isn't that grate?

What a cute little mouse. :)

I can go about 10 miles in any direction from my farm for All The Cheese. I like to make my own butter but haven’t attempted anything but the ‘soft’ cheeses so far.

New, ‘Post-Apocalyptic Skill Set’ coming up!
