Tete-de-Moine Rosettes

Tete-de-Moine Rosettes

Just now an epiphany for me with this cheese;

my first tasting of Tete-de-Moine rosettes.
A delicate flavor, oh yes, sweet and nutty,

and strings of texture, in my mouth, on my tongue.

I'm off to learn more about this sensuous cheese.
And here it is the invention that increased sales of this cheese.
The Girolle, essentially cheese is impaled in the center.
Then the blade rotates across the top of the cheese
making the beautiful rosettes.

I'll be incognito this week due to

an out-of-town adventure. More after the 12th.

I Go Among Trees

 

I Go Among Trees

by Wendell Berry

I go among trees and sit still.
All my stirring becomes quiet
around me like circles on water.
My tasks lie in their places
where I left them, asleep like cattle.

Then what is afraid of me comes
and lives a while in my sight.
What it fears in me leaves me,
and the fear of me leaves it.
It sings, and I hear its song.

Then what I am afraid of comes.
I live for a while in its sight.
What I fear in it leaves it,
and the fear of it leaves me.
It sings, and I hear its song.

After days of labor,
mute in my consternations,
I hear my song at last,
and I sing it. As we sing,
the day turns, the trees move.
