Cato Corner Cheese tasting

We brough some samples back from Cato Corner to sample with our friends, who we know would have a vested interest in our ultimate choice. But, to be honest, it would be difficult to make a 'bad choice' when it comes to Cato Corner.

I paired each cheese with Belgian style beers from my 'cellar', which is almost spilling off the shelves. Esther artfully arranged the cheeses on a plate. The beers included selections from California, Belgium, Maine, and New Hampshire. The baguettes were warm from the oven, homemade from dough I started fermenting the night before. I made a nice, simple rustic roasted chicken and root vegetable dinner to follow the cheese and beer pairings.

What a nice way to spend a cold Sunday evening in February.
