Tuna Melt

What do you present as a present to a curmudgeonly old uncle who has presence of mind and the prescience to know what he requires, but is retired and, thusly, doesn’t need anything like ties or belts or shoelaces to get him through the day? A half-gallon of fresh apple cider and a large block of Vermont cheddar? Perfect! What can be better than a tuna melt and hot mulled cider on a wintry day? Don’t get me wrong, socks and gloves are always welcome but those only warm the heart existentially.
