Thanks to @thorny-typology for the poll request, and, more importantly, for showing me what a cheese slicer looks like! I've never seen one of these before, but it's very interesting to me how many different ways people can do something as simple as cutting cheese! So yeah, thanks thorny :D

I’ve wanted to go get cheese sticks for a good 3 months and I never remember to get the cheese sticks.

I just really want cheese sticks.

Please.

cheesemonger gauntlet day 3

been up since 4:30am. there's a catering order for some rich dude going out—25 gift boxes of 10 cheeses each weighing 1/4lb. that requires us to make 250 PERFECT cuts of cheese totaling 62.5lbs. no pressure!

we did this all while the grocery team chased around two pigeons who'd gotten into the store

i cannot make this shit up

The Cheesemonger is dead. Spite is awash with the blood of certain visiting Europeans. The Game continues regardless. Red Sasha ran an ad campaign for soap. I'm scrounging slowly the resources needed to get the fuckin legal documents in the Bazaar I need to buy a ship. I'm seeing now why people buy that second candle. This stuff is time-consuming!
