The custom of eating a variety of cheese for Christmas Eve is a practice in many communities, especially those celebrating with serious seafood eaters. Participants are welcome from all cultures and religions that support the consumption of cheese.
The roots of the feast of seven cheeses lie in Eastern Pennsylvania — some say Conshohocken, others say Easton, and yet others claim it ranges from Philadelphia all the way to New York City.
Early foodies used to bring a few cheeses or dips to enjoy while family members dined on a variety of land and sea creatures. As time passed, cheese boards became more elaborate with thoughtful pairings and unique accompaniments.
This "festa de luce" also marks the moving on from the winter solstice, as the shortest day is now behind us and we can look ahead to more light and brighter days.
The seven cheeses symbolize health, prosperity, gratitude, love, family, friends and labor.
There is no consensus on which types of cheese to include, though a typical lineup might be:
*A fresh cheese, like mozzarella, burrata, chevre, ricotta or fromage blanc
* Cheddar
* Gouda
* Blue
* A soft creamy style
* A hard aged, like a Parmigianino Reggiano
* House favorite
Accompaniments can vary from specialty crackers and breads to jams, cornichons, nuts, sugared grapes, olives/tapenades and more.
It truly is "la dolce vita."

7 prisoners who escaped from the Connally Unit prison in Texas in 2000. They were pretty badass because never have so many people escaped from prison there. But they completely fucked up and killed a policeman during a robbery. After they killed the cop they fled to Colorado but they were captured. One committed suicide and the remaining 6 were brought back to Texas in chains and sentenced to death. 3 have since been executed

Something that bugs you so much even though you could live without changing it. Or you can't change it yourself, someone else must do it. You get anxious it bugs you so much.
Her grass is SO long, it bugs me like naked sevens!
I hate the way my teacher writes her 7's, they don't have lines through them like I write them. They're naked sevens!
