Pair cheese and fruit for a healthy snack or easy appetizer when entertaining. The salt in the cheese is balanced by the sweet in the fruit, and the crunch of the fruit contrasts the suppleness of the cheese. In short, your salivary glands will think they died and went to heaven.
Grapes are the most classic accompaniment, but don’t stop there. I’ve listed some pairings from around the world below and invite you to come up with more and post them on this site.
- Watermelon + Feta (Greece)
- Apricot + Stilton (England)
- Cantaloupe + Brie (France)
- Tomato + Pecorino (Italy)
- Membrillo (quince paste) + Manchego (Spain)
- Green apple + Gruyere (Switzerland)
- Avocado + Queso Fresco (Mexico)
- Fig + goat cheese (USA)
Keep in mind that ripe, sweet fruit works best, and avoid really acidic fruits like citrus. Bon appétit!
I have never tried that combination before but coming from you, now I think I should. We can enjoy lots of new things and this is the opportunity to do so. :)

I'd be interested in hearing. The TOS seems rather clear that it is not unless expressly approved by Amazon. I guess if the library got it in writing then they would be ok.

When you love someone, she is perfect in your heart, not because she has no flaws, it is because you love all her flaws, only she has such perfect flaws.

We must accept finite disappointment, but we must never lose infinite hope.

Each of the simple life is desired! Sometimes people can not simply live! Often feel tired! Really frustrating! So people should maintain a childlike innocence

Smoked fontina and homemade blueberry preserves is a favourite of mine. Strange combination, but the smoky rich flavour of the fontina helps to mellow the sticky sweet of the blueberry preserves.

A nice crisp apple with the oldest and sharpest piece of yellow I can find is a still my favourite snack. (Very Canadian), old cheddar is also good indie a piece of apple pie.
