Tasting Black River Caviar’s Ultimate Caviar, Cheese & Charcuterie Board

I have much in store for you, and cannot wait to share as things fall into place!

Um, yum.

That said, I wanted to kick off my home holiday celebrations with this little…

Our small businesses, restaurants, and artisan cheesemakers need us now more than ever before. In SF, I have been keeping up with Cheese Plus, whose social media accounts I manage, and I am so amazed at the fortitude of Ray…

Miss Cheesemonger Sings 2020 : A Dream Come True

Hello, my friends! It has been just over a week since my last cheese pairing recital, and it was spectacular. Absolutely spectacular in every way. I could not have hoped for a better event. I am overwhelmed with happiness, a sense of accomplishment, and gratitude for all the people who made it possible.

Goat Cheeses of France-A Holiday Cheese Plate

Hello, my friends! Today, I am so thrilled to share with you a little collaboration I did with Goat Cheeses of France, mainly because French goat cheese is what prompted my interest in cheese in the first place, many moons ago! I was studying in Aix-en-Provence, and had read that goat cheese was a significant part of the culinary and agricultural landscape, particularly after kidding season in…

Miss Cheesemonger Turns 10!!

Hello, my friends! It has been quite a while since I last wrote a blog post–I have been more active on Instagram, but generally, have been retooling myself as I focus more on my photography business. The step away from constantly creating cheese content was much needed–I’ve grown a little jaded about social media and blogging, and wanted to find a way to connect to cheese that felt authentic and…

Thank You For The First Miss Cheesemonger Sings!

Oh my gosh, I don’t even know where to begin this blog post about the very first Miss Cheesemonger Sings operatic cheese pairing recital! There was so much to the day. The room was absolutely full, the energy was so joyous and open-hearted, and everyone was very good about not devouring all the cheese before getting to their moment in the program!

The idea to do an operatic cheese pairing has…

Hello, my friends! I just came from my first rehearsal with my collaborative pianist for . . . wait for it . . . . my first cheese event! Which is also a classical singing recital!

A Quick Visit To Australia: Maleny, Noosa, The Sunshine Coast

Hello, my friends! It’s kind of hard to believe that not long ago, I was all the way in Australia. It was a quick trip, and the voyage didn’t feel nearly as long as I thought it would. Even the jetlag seemed minimal. Was I even in the southern hemisphere?

Strangely, I have had a really hard time writing this blog post, so I’m just going to show you a bunch of photos.

I have long loved receiving their invitations in my inbox. They were always so beautiful, and felt as special as an electronic mailing can feel.

Can you believe that Miss Cheesemonger is now 9 years…

Visit Tulum: Tips and Favorite Spots

Hello, my friends! It’s been several months since I was last able to write a blog post, but I have a few minutes now to share one with you!
