Macaroni and Charlie Cheese

Every week, as we pass through the cheese section at Whole Foods, Charlie points to this "smiley" cheese and says, "Look at that happy cheese with the smiley face!" And we laugh, and I say something like, "Yeah, isn't that funny?" Every week. Anyway, last week, Paul was lucky enough to join us on our weekly visit to my favorite place, and after we'd had dinner as a family, Judah and I started the shopping while Paul finished up with Charlie. While they headed out to find Judah and me, they happened to pass through the cheese section, and it was Paul's turn to acknowledge the happy cheese. Only this time, Paul actually picked up the smiley face and notice that it happens to be called "English Charlie Cheese." No joke. It's even spelled the same.
