What could I do? Wear a cheese hat? Be a cow? Be milk? Sure all of those would have worked. But nope, I decided to be a cheese fairy. And what would a cheese fairy do? Bring cheese to people around her, which is exactly what I did. For the work festivities, I dressed up my little fresh chevres with a pumpkin gummy hat (and some spiders).

It made for a beautiful and colorful tray!

And for our friend’s party, well the fairy turned into an angel. That halo isn’t very fairly-like. A cheese angel, that works too, right?

(See those circles on my shirt? Yeah that’s my attempt to illustrate swiss cheese holes… not sure that worked out, but anyways, you get the point.)

I brought some more cheese for the fine palates I knew would be there. In my right hand is a goat brie and in my left, a Chaource, my two latest experiments.

What can I say, bringing creamy yumminess to people makes me really happy!

Mon ami J-B (Jean-Baptiste), qui etait mon colloc temporaire de l’ete 2005 (et partenaire en fun), etait la de nouveau pour quelques mois pour la saison des vendanges dans Sonoma County. Il se trouve qu’il rentre en France la semaine prochaine et son anniversaire tombe apres qu’il parte…alors le group des frenchies de Santa Rosa a decide de lui organiser une soiree Vendredi….on s’est bien eclate!

Of course, most of the fun was to mock his youth (he’s turning 20), as we are all much older (barely or not even 30…) than him. Just kidding, the fun was fed by friends and good drinks and good food (best pizza and mille feuilles ever!) and good laughs and good dancing and good playing with the kids and dog…

Biensur, la plupart du fun etait de se moquer de sa jeunesse (il va avoir 20 ans), car on est tous bien plus vieux que lui (a peine ou pas meme 30 ans)… Sans deconner, le fun etait alimente de bons amis, de bons coktails, de bonne bouffe (meilleure pizza et mille feuilles…bravo Julie!), de bons rires, de bonne dance et de bons jeux avec les enfants et la chienne…

Ahhh…good times… Ahh… de bons moments
