Day 7 - Where's the Cheese?

Carmel Popcorn with Nuts

Today we set out to knock off item number 2 on the holiday list of to do's. That was to visit Local Cheese Products in Ingersoll. During the drive to Stratford, Ontario, where we had decided to have breakfast, we talked about what cheeses we would buy and for whom. It was fun. Now the conventional wisdom has it that this factory produces the best cheeses in the land, nay, the world. I have read and heard that it produces the best fresh paneer outside of India, the best brie outside of France and the best feta outside of Greece. Now doesn't that make your mouth water just reading that? It makes my mouth water. Bring on the cheese. Problem was: we couldn't find the factory - well let me qualify that. We found a big red building that had Ingersoll Cheese Factory painted on the side of it. The place was too quiet. No cars, no activity, no people. No Ingersoll cheese for us today.

So we headed back to Stratford and consoled ourselves by visiting the The Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory and purchasing one or two sweet items. With nuts.

On the way back home, we stopped in on Special K's father for a quick bite and to modify his settings for his HDTV and his email account.

I am wondering if we can top tomorrow with this much excitement.
