A new cheese for me


The photo above says:

‘Everytime you get upset at something, ask yourself if you were to die tomorrow, was it worth wasting your time being angry?' - Robert Tew

I thought this was good advice.

In the course of socializing at this time of year, I discovered a new cheese I liked, it is very buttery and fatty wouldn't  you know it.  It is called Manchego, turns out it is a Manchega sheep cheese from Spain.  I also learned (after eating the rind) it is one of those cheeses where you should to cut the rind off.

That's a wise saying. Manchega cheese is good, I eat a lot of cheese, this weekend I bought Swiss Gruyere, also delicious. Valerie

Awesome quote, I should make it my mantra. As for the rind, yes, spit it out.

Perfect "food for thought!"
As for the cheese...I have never heard of it. But usually tasty means fatty :)

Great quote! I don't think I've had that cheese before but I've heard it mentioned quite a bit on cooking shows.

Have not tried the cheese yet. Thanks for the warning about the rind:) Glad it didn't make you ill!

That is such a very wise quote, thanks for sharing it Christine. Also the cheese sounds interesting. We enjoy trying different cheeses. We will have to put that on our list.

A good question to ask ourselves regularly. Why waste time and energy on negativity?
