I Love Popcorn

This popcorn on the cob is from Schartner Farm. It was aged for over 9 years. It's a beautiful thing. You can't beat popcorn still on the cob. This is where our food comes from! True slow food. Popcorn / Brown Butter / Sage

Berkshire Blue Cheese

The new blue cheese on our cheese board is Berkshire Blue. I have to say it is my favorite blue. It's made from unpasteurized milk, which makes a better cheese. Due to the seasons, each wheel we have received has been completely different. Read more about it here.

Another Amazing Beer

This is the new beer put out by Pretty Things, Babayaga. I have not been disappointed yet. It's a winter seasonal stout. Another very well balanced beer. I am looking forward what else Dann has up his sleeves.
