Just saying Hi! - Argentina

[aracioppi]

Hello, lovely people from this forum!

I've been reading it from quite some time, and finally decided to join.

I'm from Abbott, a little town in the Buenos Aires province, in the amazing country of Argentina 

My family has always been in the dairy business and after some ups and downs, and the closing of the family factory (shared with aunts, cousins and all that, big mistake  ) we decided to give it a go with my father, just us, but with a different approach: no mass production but instead focus on artisan cheese of good quality.

We will be starting with the cheeses we know how to make: Pategras, Sardo, Mozzarella, and stuff . I want to learn to make some French cheeses, but that's away in my journey for the moment.

I hope to be around here for some time, to help and ask a LOOOOT of questions.

Thanks in advance!

Welcome, Ana! I look forward to hearing about the cheeses you make!

Hello!  I'm a newbie to this forum as well.  It would be great to hear about your dairy and the cheeses you will be starting to make, so I hope you post as often as you can!  --Susan

Susan, I *think* I greeted you when I saw your first post ... but just in case I didn't, a cheesy welcome to you as well!

Hi Andy...yes you did!  And I see now I am considered a "medium cheese" so I guess I'm not such a newbie after all, although I feel like one. 

I have been noticing that since I joined (about a month ago now?) there have been about 30 new members (can that really be?) and I've been hoping that more of them would post Introductions.
