Have a Cute Weekend.

This post is really incredible, one of the most helpful I have ever read, indeed. picasso

I love your Friday posts from around the web – so fun! I found an eye calculator that is a little more accurate, as it takes into account your parents and your partner’s parents. I thought this was really cool – http://genetics.thetech.org/online-exhibits/what-color-eyes-will-your-children-have
Thanks again for the wonderful posts!

I bought Where’d You Go Bernadette upon your advice Friday…just finished it last night. Thanks, I loved it! My third son was born on July 8th, so like you, I have lots of time to read while nursing. This book was such a page turner I had to remind myself to take the time to enjoy my new little guy. Terrible! ;) My other two are 3.5 and almost 2.

I would love the Grass Long Smocked Playsuit for my little girl

TOO CUTE!!! :D THis just makes me smile! thanks

What a sweet picture.

Hope you are having a wonderful weekend.

Thanks for posting the “Cheese is Dead” piece. This is a very controversial idea. As a professional farmstead cheesemaker in the US I can attest that pasteurized cheeses are most certainly NOT dead. They are brimming with life. It is a misnomer that pasteurization kills everything. Indeed, the milk is cultured after pasteurization with billions of bacteria that take on a life of their own and mingle with “native” or “wild” cultures as the cheese ages. There is no such thing as dead cheese. Some cheese is “livelier” than others, sure, but if a cheese is truly “dead” believe me, it is not, by any means, safe to eat! And by the by, the French eat and make plenty of pasteurized cheese.

The French have a thousand-year history and appreciation for the diversity of cheeses and the “life” of cheeses that Americans are only beginning to appreciate. This, I think is the main difference between our cultures of cheesemaking and cheese eating. But let’s not be too hasty to condemn American cheesemaking. We still have a lot to learn as cheesemakers and cheese eaters!

Hello Jo,
