Weird food quirks?

@missbrowneyes i do the same thing with my sandwiches! i've done it since 5th grade and now i cannot stop! when i'm eating wraps i eat the ends first! haha, that's so awesome i'm not alone! i swear that when you do this, all the good stuff gets squished to the middle of the sandwich and you save the best for last! :)

Fresh Mozzarella

that's exactly what i wanted to use it for--on fresh tomatoes with fresh basil & balsamic...i was like pouring on the balsamic to get any real flavor. and rubbery was definitely the texture i got. oh well! goat cheese is my absolute fave! never had brie, but will try that soon.
