I am partial to Vermont cheddar, of course. Never eaten pre-sliced stuff in my life, and I've never been out of the US for more than two weeks at a time. When I lived on the West coast for a few years the cheese was one of the few sad things about it. Why would they dye cheddar orange?<br /><br />As for gaming with a battlemat, my groups use LARGE tables most of the time. Often 4'x8' or larger, with (at a minimum) a Chessex 3'x4' Megamat, or (on Sundays) usually a 4'x8' Mondomat over the top like a tablecloth. Usually at the start of the session snacks will be obstructing the center. Once we get down to combat, the ritual of moving the snacks to the side is just part of the excitement!<br /><br />Your homemade goodies look great. A couple of our group's wives used to cook for us often, but right now we're playing at a bachelor pad, which means lots of junkfood, ordering pizza, etc. Do they have decent pizza delivery in Finland?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6670029344758253148.post-43902111923196260172009-05-18T17:35:00.000+03:002009-05-18T17:35:00.000+03:00They don't have proper cheese here in Canada.

I miss it!<br /><br />BTW, I really like how you run your games, without having seen more than the "empty" table.

Even grating our own cheese seemed like unnecessary work since pre-grated cheese was available. I can't recall ever seeing any sort of uncut cheese in the house.<br /><br />Then I moved to Europe. :DJimLotFPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992397707040836366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6670029344758253148.post-89081120339856246142009-05-18T07:11:00.000+03:002009-05-18T07:11:00.000+03:00So, how do they cut cheese elsewhere?So, how do they cut cheese elsewhere?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6670029344758253148.post-24249169714836808582009-05-18T04:26:00.000+03:002009-05-18T04:26:00.000+03:00This is why you need to have a second buffet table...This is why you need to have a second buffet table.
