This week, we’ve got Vivace Bambino and a new cheese- Bridgid’s Abbey.  According to Cato Corners:
Bridgid's Abbey 
Our popular Trappist-style monastery cheese with a smooth, creamy consistency and a slightly acidic aftertaste. Bridgid's Abbey has been one of our best sellers for years - its irresistible rich, mild taste is ideal for all-day eating for breakfast, sandwiches, or snacking. It melts well, performing excellently in quiche, toasted cheese, or over vegetables. Bridgid's Abbey varies in consistency somewhat from summer to winter - the winter batches are quite creamy, while the summer milk yields a slightly firmer texture. Aged 2 - 3 months.

We at the cheese co-op agree!  This is the softest, most cheese-platter friendly cheese we have offered all semester.  It’s best consumed simply at room temperature, with crackers or bread.  
Wine Pairings: Since this cheese doesn’t have a popular counterpart, it was more difficult to find appropriate pairings.  However, in honor of the Trappist tradition, we suggest imbibing in a Belgian or Dutch ale.  Or Franzia.
