New Year’s Eve Cheese
New Year’s Eve before the Kennedy Center. Frigid weather, so cheese had to be easy. W got Italian cheese, Romano and Parmesan from our favorite Bethesda Italian deli, Cornucopia with owner Ibrahim “Ibo” Selmy. As an impulse item, I picked up a Triple Goat Brie Cheese in a cute little box from DC Brookville. For about $5, it was pure heaven to N and me — though is just not a goat fan. Fabulous texture. From a Canadian Dairy, Woolwich Dairy, that now makes some cheese in Wisconsin. Last week we saw it in Safeway.
Champagne complemented it all.
Only goat brie issue: it stained my stainless steel knives and our wooden cutting board. I emailed the dairy who told me that was new to them, but they took the numbers from the box to check into it.
