The Ark of Taste

I was on the web page for slow food and found this page about Dry Jack Cheese in the ark of taste, a list of foods that are on the verge of extinction. If you are a cheese and wine kind of person and haven't tried this cheese, I urge you to drop what you are doing and head to Central Market, perhaps Trader Joes, or any place that they sell a good selection of cheese and get some, along with some crusty bread and a nice wine.

Scott and I stopped in at Vella Cheese Company in Sonoma on our honeymoon and took a tour from a cranky guy in rainbow suspenders, so Sonoma Dry Jack holds a place in our hearts as does Sebastiani Merlot. The cheese is great and is worth keeping from extinction, so try it. If your store doesn't carry it, ask them to.

Another item on the list is the Meyer Lemon If you have never tried one of these sweet lemons, you are missing out. My parents have a tree, so come on by for some lemon bars and lemonade next time you're in Pasadena.
