Cheese Tray of Chive and Sun Dried Tomato Presents on the 10th Day of Christmas

By Colleen Walsh Fong

“Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens;

Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens;

Brown paper packages tied up with string;

These are a few of my favorite things.”

-“My Favorite Things,” by Oscar Hammerstein II and Richard Rodgers

Presents are among my favorite things, both giving and receiving them. That’s why I made a cheese tray made to look like Christmas presents. Some are tied up in chive strings, others are topped with sundried tomato bows. Both garnishes add flavor to the cheese and drama to the plate. And, as always, they are really easy to make. And anything “Easy” works for me.
