Say Cheese!

I completely forgot I had't posted about this one! I don't really eat cheese, but we often serve a cheeseboard when we have guests
















very curvacious!



Bob had brought a lovely piece of wood with him when we moved last year - I can't quite remember its origins. Anyway, he cut and shaped some cheeseboards with his router. It is hard to photograph, but the edges were beautifully rounded. 
He cut a shallow recess to hold the cheese knife, then fixed a super-magnet above it. The whole board was rubbed with food safe oil to preserve its surface.We found some lovely knives in a kitchen shop in Norfolk - and he ended up making five of these as Christmas presents. As you can guess, they were well received!



And I made some chutney to go with them

  1. What a lovely gift! We have a beautiful slate board that friends gave us but, like you, only really use it when we have friends for a meal.
