I must start this blog entry with what I think was a pretty funny story; I just hope you find it funny as well (even if it is dorky).

At first, I couldn’t find any cheese that piqued my interest. Nothing. It was all the same stuff and I was frustrated. Then, magically, I found one cheese that I had heard is amazing but had yet to try. (More on the cheese later.) I didn’t find anything else that I needed so I got in line and waited for my turn. Once I made it up to the front, I told the checkout lady that I just had cheese. That is when the gentleman behind me said, “You just came in just to get cheese?!” and chose to laugh. He pretty much thought I was crazy that I only came to the grocery store to get cheese. I simply said yes, and then talked to the lady cashier who asked if I had tried another variety of cheese from the brand that I purchased. I paid and walked out mumbling to myself about the fact that I have a cookbook coming out and my love of cheese and that he shouldn’t be judging me. Little does that guy know that he was just talked about on the Internet on a grilled cheese blog. Ha.
