We’ve been eating cheese steadily since work and school finished for us on Friday. The trick is to get plenty of cheese then you don’t have to save it.

Show quote history

There are indeed. Best Christmas present ever 😀

You can freeze some cheeses

You mean you have left overs?

My MIL (who lives with us) tried to inform me that the 5 very small pieces of cheese we already had were sufficient for Christmas....I laughed in her face....🤓

This video is what you need OP. A whole improvised song about cheese

We’ve spent a stupid amount on Cheese. About 1/3 of our Christmas spend.

We’ve already eaten most of it so we didn’t have to share it.

We’ve got a lot of omeprazole.

Been a total hypocrite with my family and told them not to touch any of the ‘Christmas food’..I can take or leave the chocolates, cakes, Pringles..but everyone is out and i’m sat by the fire, candles, film on and a biggg plate full of assorted cheese and crackers/biscuits

God, I LOVE cheese 🧀

100% with you! Don't care about any of the rest - but CHEESE! Nothing like it xx

Christmas Eve. Baked Camembert. Christmas Day. Cheese board. As my girls are getting older we are getting more adventurous with the cheeses 👏. Exciting times considering at one point their diets were very restricted!
Also been requested to make cheese fondue this holiday.
All the cheese in this house 🎉🥂

I went to super special “proper” cheesemonger to buy a gift card for my nephew but oops somehow ended up buying some Stilton, a big wodge of ash-covered goat’s cheese and a nice slab of Gruyère for myself and DH. Also two packs of posh crackers, two chutneys and a jar of pickled onions. That’s tomorrow’s dinner taken care of. Cannot wait.

Reminded me of this.

I forgot to order Stilton! Now a dash to shops tomorrow! Cannot possibly have Christmas without it!

My Tesco order was due today and they emailed beforehand to say all the cheese I'd ordered was unavailable! So of course I stocked up while in Marks... only to find that the email was wrong, all the cheese was there. So I've double Christmas cheese to get through. Am sure I'll manage somehow...

Hopefully the Tesco cheese will be free?

Quality control. It's a vital function, someone has to do it.

Bloodylovecheese · 23/12/2024 21:34

I bloodylovecheese and this is my favourite time of year 🤣🤣🤣🤣

GuffyTheDustBuster · 23/12/2024 21:23

I cba to cook last night. We started the Christmas Cheese.... 3 of us hoovered up the smoked brie. No evidence. The in-laws don't need to know...

I have to tell you this is my dream scenario

We bought SIL a Cheese box for Christmas - and one for ourselves. Only to find that she has also bought one for us as well, delivered Friday. Then yesterday my DB messaged to say he has also bought us a cheese box to be delivered tomorrow. ALL THE CHEESE.

Humdinger254 · 23/12/2024 20:34

Same @Stopeatingwoman same!! Did the shop today and bought a heinous amount of cheese. And some super fancy crackers. Condiments at the ready. I shamefully encouraged DH to go sleep off his crippler of a hangover whilst I did bedtime routine for DC. Little does he know it's because I'm absolutely 1 million per cent going to enjoy a secret cheeseboard for one ligged out on the sofa once the house is silent. Now that's what I call Christmas!

Due to poor planning I have not managed to buy all the cheese I wanted this year 😭
I only have
Brie (2 kinds)
Somerset blue
Boursin
Cornish crackler
Wensleydale

This is not enough cheese
Please donate all unwanted cheeses to my cause

(At least I have decent Wensleydale.

My absolute favourite Christmas treat is Wensleydale, Christmas cake and port eaten in front of a good ghost story.)

Same. Yesterday it was baked Camembert with some lovely olive bread. Nice bit of pate. Port for him and indecent level of chocolate Baileys for me whilst watching the original “Whistle and I’ll come to You” - one of my favourite ghost stories.

I took two buses today (car isxwaiting to be fixed ' garage shut for christmas) from the village (had to coordinate the1 bus an hour with the other 1 bus an hour) to go to a cheese shop.
I got a Cheshire, red leicester, a fancy goat, roquefort and a baron bigod, plus a morbiere.

That’s dedication right there 👏
