Hi there everyone!
Well after a long and busy summer I’m now finding myself with a little more time.
As has been the case for the last couple of years I had planned on making at least a few batches of cheese over the summer months.
Well as always seems to happen I just have too many commitments and too many hobbies to devote any time to the kitchen except for the fall and winter seasons.
Well now that summer is over I’m back to making cheese, (as of today).
I have been finishing out my vacation time this week and decided that today would be a good time to start up again. All in all I had a blast even though I was a little nervous starting back.
Today I made my old standby, the Gouda and will probably stick with this variety for at least a few more weeks. After that I’ll probably move on to a few cheddars and maybe a blue or two.
I really just wanted to post a quick message to say hi to everyone and to let you know that (barring any problems), I will be online more than I have been for the past year or so. Besides I need to catch up with Rich and see if he has figured out any new Ph markers that I don’t yet have.
I’ve missed both making cheese and discussing cheese making with all of you and look forward to getting back into the swing of things.
So, I hope this finds everyone well and happy.
Dave
