I wish that I could sample all these different cheeses before I commit to buying it. Unfortunately, I HAVE met some cheeses that I didn't like. <br /><br />I'm particularly fascinated to try all those famous French cheeses.Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02301219387023496893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19558126.post-2937361646466337032007-01-24T17:47:00.000-08:002007-01-24T17:47:00.000-08:00Hi Tracy,

It has a sharp bite to it.<br />Kathy and I were back there in the Northwest around New Years and I bought 5 bricks of it to bring back to Missouri. They have nothing like it out here. There is only one store we found that sells Tillamook brand cheese but they only sell the mild yellow cheddar and something else.<br />We went to Kansas City before Christmas to this place called "The Plaza", huge shopping area. Anyway, there was this place there that sold cheese from all around the world and a person could sample them. We tried just about every single one of them. (Places like that loose business when a guy like me comes in, I sample everything, sometimes twice.) If you and Denis come back out this way, maybe we can take you to Kansas City. Its a pretty city.<br />Have a good day.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19558126.post-5892145953262461472007-01-23T10:02:00.000-08:002007-01-23T10:02:00.000-08:00Cheese, Gromit?Cheese, Gromit?Marthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15293816902877287168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19558126.post-85718069778579974212007-01-22T22:16:00.000-08:002007-01-22T22:16:00.000-08:00Try Eddie Bauer.

We have a store in our mall, but they don't always have the petite version of their clothes in stock. However, you can see what the regular version looks like and get an idea of whether the shape is right and then order the petite from the store. They don't charge shipping if you pick it up in the store.<br /><br />Have you looked at my "51 things" list? It would be interesting how much of that you can relate to. I don't remember what month I wrote that, but you could find it by using the search box at the top of the page.Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02301219387023496893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19558126.post-66921497382076397992007-01-22T17:08:00.000-08:002007-01-22T17:08:00.000-08:00Oh my gosh, I'm the only one in my family that doe...Oh my gosh, I'm the only one in my family that doesn't wear glasses too! People tell me that I am nothing like either of my parents although I think that's because I don't talk non-stop and don't mind being in my own little quiet world. I order tops from Land's End but lately even they haven't been fitting right. Oh well. I like the brighter picture.Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02436076747841701889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19558126.post-74875819803130178412007-01-22T11:04:00.000-08:002007-01-22T11:04:00.000-08:00I brightened up my profile pic.I brightened up my profile pic.Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02301219387023496893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19558126.post-42178748631448365182007-01-22T10:25:00.000-08:002007-01-22T10:25:00.000-08:00Kim, I have thought the same thing when looking a...Kim, I have thought the same thing when looking at your profile... My family always did say that I seemed like someone else's child. :o) (My whole family wore glasses but me, they all liked steak - I like it now, but didn't as a child, no one else liked some of the foods that I do.)<br /><br />Anyway, I have the same probs finding clothes. My legs are long enough that petite pants are actually too short, but the rise in regular pants is way to long. I've had too luck with pants now that the low-rise look is so in. Petite tops, dresses and skirts really are better for me, though because I have a very short waist. I've found some good stuff at Eddie Bauer and Penny's. I've been thinking of trying some higher end shops to try to find some cuter clothes.Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02301219387023496893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19558126.post-36138272995031225772007-01-22T07:27:00.000-08:002007-01-22T07:27:00.000-08:00Tracy, I think you are my twin.
I love cheese, ...Tracy, I think you are my twin. <br /><br />I love cheese, I'll try anything but I love Brie and Havarti and trying different kinds of which names I can't remember. I once went to a Wine class and ended up liking the cheeses they were serving better than any of the wines.<br /><br />I work retail at a photo memory store called Archiver's. Their website is Archiversonline.com. They are expanding quite a bit but I don't know if they are looking into Oregon or not. I just scrapped last night with all of the employees there. I didn't get much accomplished but did do a lot of laughing which is good.<br /><br />BTW. I've been meaning to ask you where you shop for clothes. Since we are both petite I thought I'd ask. It's hard to find nice and reasonably priced petite clothes that don't look like something for a 70 year old woman. Do you have good luck anywhere?Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02436076747841701889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19558126.post-86199570637690984872007-01-21T22:02:00.000-08:002007-01-21T22:02:00.000-08:00Kris, I have a little one and a big one...

Since I don't eat meat or fish I like smokey flavors in cheese because there really isn't anything else that you can get smoked.<br /><br />I don't scrapbook. I do own a scrapbooking tool though- a tape dispenser that wheels along leaving a track of little tape squares. I use it to mount my portfolio.

(I guess I'm easily entertained.LOL) I've been to several, but I hate to leave Dave and the boys when I haven't seen them all day. They do have an all day one this Saturday, but I'm not going. I love it when they do the "make it, take it" pages, but I'm not too artsy on my own.<br /><br />If you punch in scrapbooking on google, you'll find ecuts. You have to go into scrapbooking.com I believe. They're really nice, and I get my pages done quicker with them. They're also a lot cheaper than Creative Memories. I just get the acid free cardstock from a scrapbooking store or Joanne's.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08494061549313899425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19558126.post-84815811965638768482007-01-21T20:06:00.000-08:002007-01-21T20:06:00.000-08:00It wasn't boring to me...

You pay $5 to go to her house where you can use all her tools and eat her snacks and work for 5 hours. I get a lot done and there is no agenda to distract me.Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02301219387023496893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19558126.post-17074518651402723672007-01-21T19:48:00.000-08:002007-01-21T19:48:00.000-08:00Sorry for all that boring rambling...Sorry for all that boring rambling...Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08494061549313899425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19558126.post-53159362983380370912007-01-21T19:47:00.000-08:002007-01-21T19:47:00.000-08:00I don't try too many different types of cheeses, b...I don't try too many different types of cheeses, but I love provolone, and I have to make mac and cheese with extra sharp cheddar..yum!<br /><br />I love to scrapbook, but ask my sister Martha how much I usually get done when we've scrapbooked together, and she'll probably tell you, "Not much". I usually end up talking way more than scrapbooking, but I keep telling her that we need to get together again to do it anyway. I love ecuts, which I've just discovered online, because I can make a really nice page without having to put a lot of thought into it, and it's pretty cheap! The parties are always fun though because you get the socialization and the yummy food to go with it. I tend to skip those in order to spend more time with my hubby and kids.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08494061549313899425noreply@blogger.com
