Cheese!

I am exhausted and plan to post tomorrow, but I have to announce that I made cheese! Yes, I made my own ricotta cheese, and it is delicious. I have been eating it on foccacia with tomatoes. Mmmm. My sister's remark was, "Amanda, do you know you can buy it in the store?" It was much more fulfilling this way and tasted much better. I made it with organic milk which made a difference(or at least I think it did). I will post pics tomorrow, but I was so excited that I had to let everyone know. Yes, I know that is sad and very geeky that cheese-making is a highlight of the week. Sad but pleasant to the tastebuds. Night.

Saw your comment about skiing- Du's parents took him in a backpack before he could walk. Then when they got itty bitty skis he went with the ski school until it let out. Andy and Linda didn't want to stop for the day so one stay on top, another ski down, and they would push him and they other would play catch. HA! He is a good skier though... Happy you liked it! Hope you got to go in the west!
