Pardon Our French

Signs that we are adapting to France: #7

This is how much cheese is in our fridge right now.  No special occasion or anything coming up. Not having anyone over for dinner etc.




Remember – this is one of three shelves in the fridge.


I can count at least 13 kinds of cheese.


I believe Charles de Gaulle said it best:
“Comment voulez-vous gouverner un pays qui a deux cent quarante-six variétés de fromage?”

(“How can you govern a country which has two hundred and forty-six varieties of cheese?”)

I don’t know Charles – and to be honest – the governing part is not as much my concern.  I’m more concerned with how does one make sure that they have eaten all 246?

    You should definitely make that a goal while you are there – to try all 246 kinds!! Start yourself a cheese journal, Charles 🙂
