Cheese making and EATING!


On Sunday Eric says, "ooOOOo!  Shall I cut the cheese?!"  This was followed by a silly Eric laugh and off he went to the living room closet where our two pound wheel of cheddar has been aging for the last month.  To see the cheese press Eric made click here.  So a month had gone by.  He had dutifully flipped the block everyday.  It was quite delicious.  



In other news the old Casa Dea roommates were back together again in February.  This was the crew that was together when I started dating Eric.  So much fun to sit around and eat things with friends who have lived with Eric and know how silly he can be.  

Robbie:  "Have you rescued Eric from being paralyzed after a nap yet?!  You know when he is all (Robbie makes a crazed face and gurgling noises in his throat)?"
Me:  Ahh yesss, many a time.  
Eric:  (Looking at Robbie)  Rescued?  You never rescued me!  I woke up and I couldn't move!  You walked into the living room and I looked up at you from the couch, trying to get your attention.  I was looking right at you!, and cursing at you too.  Especially when you just walked away.
Robbie:  (Laughs)  I thought you were having a seizure. 
Eric:  (Laughing)  So you walked away?!

Good times. 

Note:  For those of you that don't know Eric does the opposite of sleep walking.  When you sleep there is a part of your brain that shuts off movements to your body so you don't act out your dreams.  People who have problems with this sleep walk.  For some reason, if he takes naps during the day, sometimes his brain will wake up and he can open his eyes but his brain hasn't turned off this mechanism yet so he can't move.  This is when I hear loud gurgling noises and have to rush in to the bedroom pounce and shake him.  Haha.  All in a days work.
