You must have been hungry, lol.

I love a sandwich with cheese, tomatoes and cucumber.

I just got a shipment of cheese from igourmet. Their sale section often has some great deals on some really good cheeses. You do pay for shipping, but it's a flat rate, so I often coordinate my order with friends and neighbors.
