Cheese and Wine Tasting at Cheese Addiction

Saturday, July 11. 2020

First one of Margie's get togethers since March.  Shut downs . 15 brave soul's showed up tonight. Held outside in the parking lot behind the Cheese Addiction store in Bixby Knolls.  People were spaced out and no more than 4 to a table.

All 12 cheeses were cut ahead of time and placed into a small pizza box. Everyone had their own box and own container of crackers.

I cannot remember the cheeses now. I threw the list away. I liked  all but one Munster. A lot of wines showed up. People are really thirsty at this stage of the shut down. 8 white wines, 7 red wines and 5 bubblies.
