Cheese. Now there's a topic. Nowadays not only do we get 'normal' cheese, but processed cheese triangles, processed cheese singles, squirty cheese in a tube, cheese string... I see so many friends hand over a flat shiny square fresh out of the plastic to their kids and explain that it's "cheese".
Well that isn't cheese. Real cheese is a living organism and doesn't keep well unless in the correct conditions. Here in Christchurch we have a brilliant shop called 'the canterbury cheesemongers' and if you think that 'cheese' will cover it - pay them a visit.
My eldest daughter knows her cheddar from her edam and her fresh mozzarella from her parmesan. And gouda. And so on. I think I used the word "cheese" when she was under 18 months - and then it was "try this...." type. It's fun and the flavours are amazing - goats and sheeps cheeses, blue, waxy ones, ones with holes... She even helps me choose!

Do Sarah and Martin know you're blogging them? Is it a deal to get cheap cheese? Can i get cheap cheese by positing? Martin also runs a secret high stakes casino out the back of the shop. Ooops.
