Thanks guys. It is like a little reunion from the good ol' days!
At least I'm not the only one that has been overloaded with life and it's little curve balls!
Dave it is good to hear from you too!! I see you have been a little more active here than I've been lately which is good. Also good to see you are back at it as well after the summer break. I'll have to check up on your swiss progress... any good things to report?
DeeJay, thanks for the comments on this cheese.. I'm actually not sure it will actually stick around too long! We've been going at it pretty good around here. The wheel was about 2.5 lbs if I recall. We had some tonight just cut and drizzled with some balsamic vinegar. That was a treat!
Dave, in regard to your aging and patience issues... I tossed around opening this one damn near every time I turned and finally I just set my mind to the fact that 1 year was going to be the date.. well I cut it short by about 2 weeks... but damn that is close enough! I wish you luck with your patience... it helps to go and splurge on a piece of grand Parmesan Reggiano and cull your cravings if that helps.
Carter, how are the other projects going? Making any cool vids lately?
