Cheese #2 (Fresh Asiago from Italy).

This fresh Asiago intrigued me because of its softness and smell. I normally expect Asiago to be a hard cheese so this I had to try. It ended up feeling and smelling better than it tasted. It wasn’t “bad” just not strong. I guess I like more potent cheeses. The smoked Provolone from yesterday blew this one away flavor wise. I ended up slicing up both of these cheeses and putting them on some homemade pizzas tonight. The smoked was so good all melted and smokey and Provoloney. The Asiago was good and melty too but nothing stand out.

J is very particular about cheeses. She looks as though shes sampling with caution or just really thinking about what she’s tasting. I like that.

Usually when I get home from work J will sit up on the kitchen counter and stretch her feet across to the center island and we will talk about the day. I’m usually busting out some snack like cheese and crackers to keep us going until dinner. I really enjoy this time of day with her.

This flicker photo set of vintage photos had my attention for a good while today as well as the sad news about Steve Jobs.
