    My mother in law asked me to bring a charcuterie for Christmas Eve this year (12 people attending) and these videos are so helpful! I make a decent board, but I was just slicing meat and cheese and placing it on there. Now I feel like I can level up with salami roses and pretty cheese arrangements. 🙂

I assume the blue will crumble. This year, I'm using a paper mache 60 as my board. I also bought a small brie, manchego and some other cheddars, colby jack.
