Cheesey Advent Calendar day 24!!

This is the last box we have to open!!!

Today it's a competition!  It says "Love this limited edition cheese?  Tell us on Facebook to win a party pack of cheese for NYE. F @ilchestercheese"

It's another Wensleydale cheese which I'm not fond of.  I might give this to Diane as well and then she can enter the competition!!

Happy Christmas everyone!!!

Cheesey Advent Calendar, days 19, 20 and 21!!

We haven't opened up our calendar for days, so we got a few boxes to open!!!

This one has a joke!  What did the cheese salesman say?

That cheese may be Gouda but this one is Feta!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hahahaaaa!

We got a cheddar cheese out of that box!!!

The next box was this one........

This one has another joke!!  Shall I tell you the clever cheese joke?

It might go "whey" over your head........

GROAN!!!!!!

That box had another Applewood cheese!

Then we opened today's box!

This one has a fun fact - to create the perfect Christmas cheeseboard, visit Ilchester.co.uk/cheeseboard.

(Or go to your nearest supermarket and buy your favourite cheeses!!!)

Today's cheese was another red leicester.

Only three more boxes to open up!!!

Cheesey Advent Calendar days 17 and 18!

We got a fun factoid yesterday - Wensleydale with Cranberries is the UK's favourite sweet additive cheese.  Well, I didn't like it.  Not my favourite!!

Yesterday's cheese was Jarlsberg again.  We like that cheese!!!

Today's box - it's that one there!

We got another factoid!!!  Add Mexicana to your Friday night meal and spice up your weekend.  You mean, I have to wait another THREE DAYS????? 

Today's cheese is Edam.  I like Edam!!!

Apparently there's a town in Holland Edam.  And another one called Gouda and Andrea says Gouda is a cheese too.

Can we go there?  Please???
