So what's all this about cheese?
For the past year or so I've been telling people I want to make cheese for a living. Mostly, this cheese talk has been limited to parties, weddings, and the occasional bar outing. It made for good patter, but it seemed not to go much farther than that. There was always a truth in my talk, but for the most part it felt rather like a pipe-dream. Lately, though, Kari and I have started thinking that perhaps this cheese thing isn't so crazy. Both of us are feeling a little adrift lately. Since being laid off back in March, I haven't really been able to imagine myself returning to work full-time, managing projects for another lame web site. I can, however, see making cheese. Why cheese? I don't know. But I can see doing it, and for some reason, it's exciting to me. This weblog, then, is about my quest to both define my dream--which is admittedly still more than a bit fuzzy--and chronicle my steps towards achieving it. Why do this publicly? Good question.
