Holiday Cheese Board #4 – The Absolutely Perfect Pacific Northwest Cheese Board
Many of you are already sitting down to a wonderful Thanksgiving with family and friends. This year, it’s just The Lady, The Man and me… exactly the way I like it… Having them ALL to myself… I am thankful this year that the manse is not filled with all these loud humankinds who take over...
Holiday Cheese Board #3 – Baa Baa Sheep 101
Here at the manse, the more sheep milk cheese we eat, the more favorites we find. As a prelude to this cheese board, we decided to share a few Sheep Milk factoids with you in a mini Sheep 101. Sheep milk accounts for less than 2% of all commercial milk produced in the world....
Holiday Cheese Board #2 – The Chunnel

Made in the traditional… well let’s face it… 1000 years ago, tradition was all they had… alpine way by more than 50 co-operatives, Appenzeller is washed in a solution...
Cremont From Vermont Butter and Cheese Creamery
As many of you know, when The lady and I started this cheese journey, we knew little of goat milk cheese and what we did know was not pleasant. The first goat cheese we tasted was a hard cheddar that smelled and tasted like a billy goat in heat searching for his own lady fair....
Bear Pond Artisan Tomato-Basil Pesto Sauce
The Lady loves LinkedIn, another social media site geared toward making business contacts and relationships. A lot of our Cheese Swell Friends are also members of the site. Recently, Cheryl Sullivan from Bear Pond Farm contacted The Lady and offered to send us some pesto sauces made at the farm. We love pesto and were thrilled...
