I am writing this blog to share our recipes with friends and family. Each week I am including a story about the recipe. At the end of my 52 week commitment, I will print the blog in book form.

The story of "Special Cheese"
My cookbook would not be complete without telling the story of "Special cheese". When our daughters were young girls, they loved camembert and brie cheese. We always served it when we had company and on special occasions. In our house, we simply called it "Special cheese". At Christmas, the girls would be thrilled to bits to get a tin of "special cheese" in their stockings. They would put their names on their individual boxes and could eat it anytime they wanted. It truly was a "special treat". They never questioned and we never did tell them the true name of the cheese and it was only when they were teenagers they discovered the cheese was not really called "special cheese" but actually camembert and brie. Some children enjoyed oranges in their stockings, some children enjoyed brie and camembert.
