Wayne....
When taking part in a marathon it is important to take in plenty of fluids.
Might I suggest breaking open a few bottles of your '07 vintage during this endeavor?
As always I'm just looking out for your health and well being.

I don't have to.  I really don't. 

But one of the reasons i don't make cheese more often, is that my wife reminds me that I do, in fact, have chores. And I have to say that I do feel just a tad guilty playing with cheesemaking while I hear the vacuum going upstairs.

She is going to her folks house, out of state, for 5 days.  That leaves me to do what I please.  guilt-free.

So I'm making cheese !


And in the grand scheme of things, given my history, my wife is good with cheesemaking.

Likespace,

Sounds Great!

'O7 is ready,  Heck '08 might even make it into the rotation.

Ah I must have misread I thought you HAD to make all that cheese.
Maybe a big Cleveland city Spaghetti dinner in your future?

Good thing you didn't have a wreck on the way home or the road would have had a milk bath!  Looking forward to pictures of your further steps.
