This book is a poetic view of 30 of the best loved French cheeses with an additional two odes to cheese. Recipes, wine pairing, three short stories and an educational section complete the book.<br /><br />From a hectic life in New York City to the peace and glories of the French countryside lead me to be the co-founder of www.fromages.com. Ten years later with the words of Pierre Androuet hammering on my brain: <br /><br />“Cheese is the soul of the soil. It is the purest and most romantic link between humans and the earth.” <br /><br />I took pen and paper; many reams later with the midnight oil burning Tasting to Eternity was born and self published. <br /><br />I believe cheese and wine lovers should be told about this publication. <br /><br />EnjoyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-630857423783823238.post-32339051623578761872009-04-14T15:50:00.000-07:002009-04-14T15:50:00.000-07:00So beautiful!So beautiful!Shelbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11068638453383917637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-630857423783823238.post-74673619943287955772009-04-12T21:13:00.000-07:002009-04-12T21:13:00.000-07:00How beautiful and impressive!
