Blue Cheese

My wife stands beside my chair and looks down on me like a child “I promise you will like it,” she said and smiled "The real star of your salad is the blue cheese." I looked up full lips pouting and displease. No matter how hard I try to pinch my nose it's still gross, it makes me squirm all the way to my toes, it still smells. I squeeze my eyes and swallow, chasing it down with glass of water knowing what will follow. She puts blue cheese on a thousand things, blue cheese on anchovies pizza and peas, in dipping sauce for Buffalo Wings blue cheese on chicken sandwiches and hamburger patties. No! I beg please blue cheese makes me sneeze and wheeze. 1-21-2018
