3 Types of Cheese Purchased at The Cheese Chalet
1 Really Bad Pain Day
Lician, Brian, and I went to Ehelnbach’s Cheese Chalet today and it was amazing! I mean, I was absolutely not fond of the ‘cheese fudge’. Cheese and milk chocolate is not a flavor combination that I enjoy. But! We did get an amazing applewood smoked butterkase cheese, a habanero jack cheese, and another that I can’t remember right now.

I think I am settling into the new position quite well. It helps that I have two and a half years experience with our company’s site software for inputting records requests. It also helps that I don’t need training on our EMR (electronic medical record) system.
