There are certain things I like to eat to celebrate New Year's. Cheese is at the top of the list! I love fancy artisanal cheeses to ring in the new year, and even though we were having a midnight breakfast at church, I brought along the food that I wanted to eat. I brought the shrimp, which were local shrimp I purchased from Whole Foods earlier in the day, for lowfat protein. But after the shrimp, I had cheese and it was awesome :-)
