National Cheese Day
Well, OK. That was yesterday.
But we cheese lovers think the whole dog-gone week should be set aside to honor its goodness.

Terri wants to know ...
What's your favorite cheese? Which one is always in your fridge?
My favorite is Bellavitano -- but owing to its price, it's not a fixture. That honor goes to cheddar or provolone.
What is your preference? Mild, Sharp or Extra Sharp? How do you use cheese most often?
Extra Sharp, please.
At least 5 days each week I prepare some kind of eggs w/ cheese.
Cheesecake? New York style or what other flavors would you rather have?
My absolute favorite is the Cheesecake Factory's white chocolate, caramel, macadamia nut.
Since there are no CF's nearby, I've learned to love Publix's New York style.
When you do grilled cheese sandwiches, which cheese do you prefer to use and what condiments do you use, if any?
Sorry, I'm not particularly fond of grilled cheese.
I did, however, have occasion to sample something wonderful a couple of years ago.
Served on white sourdough, it contained grated Parmesan, Bourbon Bellavitano, roasted red pepper, salami and fresh-leaf spinach.
#5 on June 5 ... Terri's asked if we won't sing 'happy birthday' to her little sister, Tammy!
All together now!
(I can't hear you!)
Share something with us about your week. If it includes using cheese in a recipe, please also share that with us, too!
No cheesy recipes come to mind, but I hope others will share!
When Stacy solved the mystery of my 'chicken scissors', it jiggled something in my subconscious. I put on a pot of hot water and went running for my egg cup.
The victim.
The victim.
Next time, I'll buy smaller eggs.
Ready …. aim ...
… fire!
This isn't something I'd do in public, but you get the idea!

Finally! Because I firmly believe in the old line, "Leave 'em laughing when you go."
An excerpt from our Bible study book .....… where the author recounts her colonoscopy: "When everything is all set, they put you to sleep to do the actual procedure. But on very rare occasions that patient's fear or metabolism or absolute desire to be in control or something else crazy causes the patient's body to override the anesthesia, and they wake up during the procedure. Let's not psychoanalyze all that, because I am one of those people. I woke up. Now, of course, I don't remember waking up and didn't know I had woken up in the middle of the situation until my doctor told me the next day. That was a fun conversation. I turned all the shades of red as I slowly realized the doctor now has a new favorite story to tell. Supposedly, I raised my hand and said, "Excuse me, excuse me, but this isn't working for me. I'm in a bit of pain and discomfort, and I must go now. And then I jumped off the table, grabbed at the air as if picking up my purse and said, "Goodbye." The doctor calmly replied, "Well, Lysa, you might want me to remove the tube from your backside before you go. So, let's just get you back on the table for a few minutes." Can y'all just imagine? I was dying. Keep smiling, my friends … be safe!
Hugs, Myra
