NOFA Part 2: Cheese Tasting!

On day 2 of NOFA Madeleine and I went to a the much anticipated (by me) cheese tasting workshop. We got to taste 3 different cheeses from Cricket Creek Farm.We also learned a very extensive process of how to properly taste cheese. First we looked at the cheese. Then we touched the cheese and observed the texture. Next we smelled the cheese.  Finally we were allowed to taste the cheese! We repeated the entire process of all 3 cheeses. At the end we were able to take home some of the extra cheese.
