They also do a Valencay type pyramid and some spreadable flavors, but I really love the fresh stuff. And if we have an extra log or two, we put them up and age them a month or so–divine.

And a tiny, tiny chunk of Beaufort d’ Alpage.

My bosses were in SF and texted me to see if I wanted anything from Rainbow so I requested a pound. That, with Mt. Townsend’s Cirrus and North Valley Chevre’s new 60-day aged goat cheese they debuted at the market about a month ago, served with Panforte.

PS I *totally get the no social life but cheesemakers and farmers market. Saturday mornings are my rejuvenation day!

i wanna try those lazy lady cheeses…gonna look for them on my birthday trip to nyc. they sound (and at least in this photo, look) pretty delicious.
