Cheese tasting at the Koshland

Excellent night at the Koshland Science museum. Dr. Catherine Donnelly from UVM gave a talk about the history and safety issues of cheeses - not what I was expecting exactly, but interesting. We also know some of the same people, so small world. The cheese was very good - all of them. I think my favorites were Mt. Tam Cowgirl Creamery Camembert and the Cabot Clothbound Cheddar. I also liked the Comte Reserve, though I didn't at first until I cleaned my palate with the Perrier :) This one took a bit to enjoy - but it was extremely good. The parmesan and bleu cheese were also both good, but not something I can eat a lot of by themselves.

Looking forward to a three day weekend of beads, papers, cleaning and finally (hopefully) putting together my dining room table. Since the dishwasher is now running, I feel I have already started on the cleaning. And that may also be the end of it :) I was very productive last week - here's hoping the same happens this weekend!

Cherry Blossom Season!
My first year in DC last year, and I timed my cherry blossom visit perfectly! Helps when you work walking distance from the tidal basin.
