Diva Cooking 101

Divas cook gorgeous things that are fabulous enough to share with friends and family. They just don't cook much. Every diva needs a few, easy signature dishes to get by. Are you a diva cook?

Divas cook while listening to Billie Holiday, Muddy Waters, or the Rolling Stones.

Divas cook while sipping Champagne, Chardonnay, or a martini.

Divas cook with a feather boa draped around their shoulders.

While cooking, divas nibble gin-soaked olives or Champagne-saturated strawberries.

Divas cook while wearing an apron that says, "Tomorrow is another Chardonnay."

A diva's favorite breakfast is last night's appetizers.

Divas don't stress over particular amounts in any recipe. Glugs, plops, and handfuls are accurate enough.

Divas can cook with boas because diva recipes do not require many steps. Still, the food is fabulous.

Snow Queen Norwegian Cheese

I didn't know the heaven I was buying when I purchased this product from Jarslberg. I loved the name. That's it. This cheese comes in a square block with a red wrapper. Look for it. Buy it.

Snow Queen is a dark colored cheese with a creamy caramel flavor. It is called Gjetost (pronounced ‘yet-oast’), and is made from both cow and goat milk. It is absolutely delightful when served with crackers and citrus fruit like apples and pears.

I have not yet tried their other variety, Ekte made only from goat's milk. When I do, I'll let you know about it.
