Well, the French have a reputation for eating lots of cheese...
That's TOO MUCH cheese per person and in one meal ! Or I'm not really French ? Mmmh...

I agree with you, although my husband would doubtless insist that there is no such thing as too much cheese. It depends also on the type of cheese, whether it is an ingredient or a topping, and what are the other components of the recipe. 300g of cheese between two people does seem rather a lot!

His conception of meat is just too much based on potatoes, butter, cheese, cream and cooked pork meats for me.
Surely you jest. It's physically impossible to have too much butter. ;D

That sounds suspiciously like the recipe for scallop potatoes...  ???

I suppose so, although I've never heard of any with pork in them. Sure sounds good though! Excuse me while I look through my cookbooks...

All of that wasn't for a recipe, just my housemate's basic foods, but I'm sure he could invent one ^^

Too much cheese?  Maybe it's a translation thing. Those words don't make sense in English if you put them in that order.  It's kind of like saying "too much garlic."
Keep an eye on me. I shimmer on horizons.

This morning when I came to work I was greeted by an unusually high stack of frames to complete and thought I'd be a) doomed, doomed and once more doomed and b) spending my whole day working on them so better be efficient about it. Maybe I was a little too efficient though, considering I'm already done with them all and the day's not even half done yet.

Let's call this power... "Determination".

Either wind down and stop twitching or run a few laps around the building, possibly, after work frenzy having nothing to do all of a sudden is bad for my well-being... I'm taking suggestions too if you got me some work.
