Whine and Cheese

Well, I don't have much to write about so I'll write about what I'm eating right now.

First off, I have the loveliest cheese that, perhaps, I've ever had: a Castelrosso. And the description in that link doesn't do it justice. Depending upon which part of the cheese you are eating it's anywhere from a delicate parmesian to a tangy bleu. It's like one of those "three cheese in one" cheese balls from the kiosk at the Mall at Christmastime--except it's absolutely nothing like THAT at all. I (HEART) Castelrosso.

Next up, I'm sampling some of the Chevre I picked up at Trader Joes. Any place that can serve up a half pound of goat cheese for $3.50 is good in my books. I haven't tried it yet, but I'm thinking it would go nicely with smoked salmon.

And I'm also eating some tasty Sopressata. If you know me you know I love the sausage like no other. Those Europeans and their sausages. How do they do it?

Oh, I'm eating all these with some fancy bread from Whole Foods and a glass of red wine. Mmmmmm a perfect dinner. Which isn't to say that last night's dinner wasn't a perfect dinner too: Pasta Bagna Cauda. Oh yeah, all oily and salty (and, if you know me you know that's a good thing) and filled with garlicky goodness. After this weekend I'm going to have to start eating salads or something.

Just kidding of course.
