Thanksgiving in February and Cheese Delight

February 5, 2010

Our friends Jim and Becca wrote an awesome book on the craft of cheese making in Wisconsin. This would make an amazing valentine’s gift for the cheese nerd (like me!) in your life ($18 at Amazon). Add a box of cheese from the University of Wisconsin-Madison ($19) and they’ll love you forever.  I have personally sampled the aged cheddar and can give it the AGDS seal of approval.  I love Jim and Becca for many reasons but one of my favorite is that they created Febgiving, the celebration of thanksgiving in February.  This year Febgiving is celebrated Feb. 14 and 20th. I can’t wait.

Love the creative holiday!

Awesome! I’ll have to get this book for my father. He did his PhD on the bacteriology of cheese ripening. I’m sure he would love this.

Yum! I love the idea of Febgiving – for the past several years my Mom has hosted early Thanksgiving, usually towards the end of September. It’s almost always nice enough to eat outside and she enjoys being able to invite people, who she wouldn’t normally share Thanksgiving with, over for a fun meal! It all started because I wanted Thanksgiving dinner shortly before I left the country for a year and it happened to be in early fall! Everyone always has a great time!

Ah! I love that I found your blog through Joanna Goddards blog, and that it turns around and comes right back to Jim and Becca. Fantastic!
