Homage to fromage

For reasons that would take a book to explain, my diet no longer includes cheese or coffee. Omitting them was a cold turkey move on December 26th. That is 55 days, 79,200 minutes, 1320 hours, or 4,752,000 seconds depending on how you look at it. But really, who's counting? (Forgot one - 7.8 weeks.) My beloved java and fromage. Sigh. Oh, how I miss them. And if my wonderful, loving, caring, generous child (cough!) keeps pointing them out in the grocery store, holding them up and talking about the sale prices, posing with them, using the words "cheese" and "coffee" like frisbees in the wind ... welllllll ... I see your "cheese," dear turkey, and raise you one "frappuccino!" Ha! To which he counters with "lonely nursing home." Damn.
