Gruyere?

.

As a raw cheese?  Not so much.  I tried a few cubes last night, while awake in the middle of the night.  I didn't get much for flavor.  I thought it a bit chalky.  To a degree, it reminded me of parmesan reggiano.  Actually, it has less flavor than that.  At least the one I tasted.

Now, that isn't a terrible thing.  It just means, to me, it isn't a... tasting cheese.  It, to me, is a cooking cheese.  I would not eat parmesan, or asiago, or several others, on their own.  They... taste like a form of cheese-chalk.  But, they do shave well, and blend into foods.  If, to some degree, even that is an acquired taste.

Now, that was just one of the cheeses.  Though, I suspect, from examining the others, that they are all going to be similar.  Very much an acquired taste.  And, an exceptionally mild flavor.  Heated up, it might provide more flavor?  Am I flavor tone deaf to this cheese?  Not sure.  Will... experiment.

One of the things I was able to obtain was eggs.  While they are more expensive, I had feared they would be beyond my reach, even beyond my willingness to pay.  While they are enough to ponder, once a month, buying some is still okay... just.  So, I will try some with eggs.  Which of those recipes, or another, I don't know.

Of course, that only after I learn to stand again.  I am really rough today.  Something is really off.  I did get started on medicine, so... maybe that will help.

Just got a delivery.  As I was thinking about getting the package, I heard a vehicle pull up.  One of them seemed to have a camera.  But... something else.  I get the feeling they were after a package, or trying to see me.  Something very strange.  They took off immediately, after I opened the door.  Yes, I heard them pull up, wondered, actually, if the UPS guy had returned for something.  Nope.  And they didn't look like locals.  Not from town.  Something was really off about them, just a feeling, and the avoidance of looking, and like a camera?  Strange.

Anyway...  Just at 10:42.  Still in rough shape.  Ill, like I'd like to go to the bathroom, after a night of drinking?  But not really needing to go.  Innards feel a bit squeezed.  Headache has backed off, but not really gone.  Just... back in the background.  The rest?  Life just got fuzzy.  I am not sure what hurts, or what even feels... anything.

I am thinking going back on to bed, for a bit, might be best.  Oh, but I will get insulin in.  Forgot that too.  Forgot that two nights running?  Maybe.  Beginning to lose track of things.  And, when I work hard, I easily forget as well.  Later.
