Mustard fan

I found out something new about myself over this holiday season. I like mustard. I never used to like mustard very much, but I think that is because I had never really tried the different kinds of good mustards. I was stuck in a yellow mustard rut. I still needed to experience all of the opportunities the mustard world had to offer. I had to broaden my mustard horizons.

For Christmas, my grandmother sent me a meat and cheese basket. It has like 10 different cheeses and about 5 different kinds of sausage. It was very good and we are still working on eating it all. But the thing that I liked the MOST about the basket? There were two small jars of mustard. One was champagne mustard and the other was called Sweet 'n Hot mustard. And they were sooooooo good. Tonight I made sandwiches on our panini grill and put some of the mustard on them. Oh, so good!

Sounds yummy! I love those meat and cheese baskets! How was your first day back? We're about to get more snow...I hope we won't be here tomorrow, LOL.

Alisha,
Figi's is about 2 miles from my parents house in WI. I actually worked there for a winter or two doing some kind of work with the holiday orders. That's pretty funny to see your Figi's love! Perhaps one day I'll send you a flat rate box of mustard.

I am not a fan of just yellow mustard but I do love spicy brown and honey mustard.
