"Artisan food" is a huge thing right now in food snob circles and there is lots of it here. San Francisco is weird that way sometimes, in the living in the shadow of landmarks sense. They get a lot of tourists at the <a href="http://www.ferrybuildingmarketplace.com/" rel="nofollow">Ferry Building</a> so even the straight food places are more than just practical grocery. I guess the holiday shoppers didn't much go for these so they were on sale, and I needed a cheese board. As these things go, slate is ok. I may strip the felt off the bottom to make it less fussy to clean. I can always get a loose piece of something to put under it. If I wanted to be pretentious I would write the names of the cheeses in chalk on the stone. But I'm lazy and do not otherwise have cause to keep chalk around the house. This is probably for the best.
