It’s that magical time day of the year when many a folk get to open their first advent calendar surprise. Day one, the day you find out if your advent calendar sucks, or will be full of joy. You always seem to know by that first peak. I’ve been enjoying advent calendars most of my adult life. We had them sporadically as kids, but not very often. I so love them. I’ve had tea advent calendars and many many chocolate ones. I haven’t splurged on a wine one yet, but I hope to… I really hope to.
This is my second cheese advent calendar. The first one I had was last year. It was a commercially made one, but I don’t remember the brand. It was really good and I loved it. This year the local cheese shop was offering the commercial cheese advent calendar, or a homemade from the store version. I jumped on the in store version and I’m so glad I did.
It was packaged so beautifully and has decently large chunks of cheese (which is great since I am sharing with my spouse. We’re splitting each day between the two of us). I love that all the cheese is labeled. What a perfect way to discover new favourites. I’m not sure how many different kinds of cheese there are since I’m only on day one, but I’m hopeful it’s a lot, dare I even hope for a different kind each day??? Either way, I can already tell this is going to be an awesome advent calendar.

Sounds delicious! I love smoked cheeses. (Smoked Gouda is one of our faves).
