Cheese and Crackers

Ringing in the New Year can be an absolute joy or a total terror. Regardless of what’s coming, you should be prepared with a stomach full of cheese and crackers, perhaps even a slice of pepperoni (and a bit of wine to dull the senses). Crispy tops and bottoms hold in a variety of cheesy goodness– like the complex cheddar wrapped in sun dried tomato, the spicy pepperjack cheese, or the garlic and herb with a piece of pepperoni. Should old acquaintance be forgot and never brought to mind? It is not for us to say, but we can be prepared for what waits around the calendar by filling ourselves with the flavors of good times and the love of good people. And should you find yourself alone as the clock strikes midnight, remember that there will be more wine and more days to find your way.
