My Big Cheese Score!
This morning, Mr. Hot and I took a trip to Corrado's Market in Clifton. My intention was to pick up some spare ribs, and re-stock my supply of Turkish bread, to which I've recently become heavily addicted.
En route to the bread and meat, we passed through Corrado's "World of Cheese," when my bargain-hunting husband noticed a sign, "Super Sale Stilton $1.99."
"Don't you like Stilton?" he asked.
"Yeah, but that can't be right," I said. So I picked it up, looked at it, gave it a good sniff, and said "maybe it is, let's get some." So I grabbed five wedges.
The "World of Cheese" then proved even more wondrous when I spotted a wheel of St. Agur Blue. The wheel, 5.76 lbs, was priced at $17.22, that's $2.99 per pound. I grabbed that too. I was sent further over the moon when I noticed a wheel of Explorateur. I did a bit of a double-take when I read the price sticker: $13.10. That meant that this wheel of one of the most heavenly triple-cremes was priced at only $2.99 per pound. Guess what I did next? Yes! I grabbed it!
Finally, we made our way into the bread section where I filled the cart with about a dozen Turkish breads.
We were circling the meats when I zeroed in on a slab of whole bacon. And well, since I'm not once at exercising temperance and discretion, especially when it come to pork, the fine slab was mine as well.
A thorogh shopping day indeed, and quite the cheese score! For more food porn - I mean pics - visit the gallery.
