what's cooking wednesdays: the single gal edition

scared ya there, didn't i?  no, no, things with the beau are still going absolutely swimmingly.  but unfortunately he left town for work this morning and won't be back until july 9.  {cue dramatic wailing}  we have a little beach weekend in between now and then, so it's not all bad, but i will be back to cooking for numero uno for the next two weeks.

and honestly?  i'm a little excited about it.  why?  because he doesn't like blue cheese.

i LOVE blue cheese.  actually, i love any and all cheese.  i have never met one that i don't adore.  yes, some more than others {my most rabid devotion is reserved for the unpasturized variety}, but cheese is my one true love.  and going on 5 months of not making a dish with blue cheese in it?  c'est tragique!

so when i saw this beauty posted on smitten kitchen yesterday, i knew this was going to the top of my list to make while the cat's away.  a slice of this, a simple green salad, and a glass of buttery white wine....mmmm i can hardly wait!

Enjoy your cheese! I am allergic to mouldy cheeses so I have only ever had it once!

YUMMM!!!! When my husband goes out of town I always like to eat everything that he doesn't like too! Hahaha!! He doesn't like a lot of things so I have a big selection! :)

Smitten with anything with blue cheese and or bacon!
I am trying to eat raw, but am tempted by that tart....
I love couples who have unique likes! Embrace your unique likes!

My beau has been out of town for 2 months now (we're in the process of moving cross-country) and it has been pretty fun eating all of the things he doesn't like. However he's the chef in our relation so I'm glad I stumbled across this post!

Since W. and I are doing the long distance thing, I get to eat whatever I want a lot...and it's fabulous :) Glad to hear that you and the boy are still doing well!

Ohh I love blue cheese, I'll eat it in any way, shape or form! I looove it stuffed in dates and then stuck under the broiler for a few minutes.

Cheese is definitely a weakness of mine too! LOVE Gorgonzola!
