We had a luncheon on the terrace...

The cat was asleep.  Dead fast, doing what he does best.

It was a stunning spring day so we decided to have a luncheon on the terrace.  The blue cheese is pretty special,  A Fourme d' Ambert.  It dates back from the 8th century.  It is a full fat sheeps milk blue (50% fat), creamy and utterly delightful.  This is now my favourite blue cheese.

Along with our cheeses we had pear, date walnut salad.  A favourite of ours,  but this time we roasted the dates in the oven.  Remember Joey, all those years ago when you did that?  Those chewy yummy dates stayed in our heads.  So, paired with fresh pear, chewy toffee like roasted dates (thanks Joey!), roasted walnuts, amazing cheese.  Utterly yum.  

Toasty roasted chewy yummy with cheese.  Addictive. 

Spring is here in Signeville.  Our Cherry blossom is always the last to blossom in the village which makes it extra special.
