Leftover heaven

unzeugmatic spent a good bit of time and effort fretting over his party fare. His choices were perfect. There were, I think, 9 different kinds of cheeses, smoked salmon and smoked trout, 2 different kinds of smoked meat sliced beautifully thin, 3 different kinds of heavenly grapes, 2 kinds of berries and perfect pares and bread and crackers.
Several times he worried out loud about whether or not he had enough.
I worried silently that he had exactly the right amount and there were be no leftovers.
Turns out we both worried needlessly.
I was born a grazer and I am in heaven. I walk by the fridge and grab two slices of pear. On the way to anywhere, I grab a handful of grapes for the trip. Last night I had some of the smoked meat with some of the soft cheese for dinner and just now, I had a nice little snack of salmon and one of the hard cheeses.
The needle of my yum meter is in danger of breaking off.
